Lucian Books and Wine

As children we assumed we’d be refined adults who did things like buy hardback books, eat chicken liver paté, and order wine by the bottle. If that’s yet to become your reality, Lucian is your opportunity to prove to your childhood self that you have arrived–even if only for one night.

Lucian’s intimate dining room is framed by a floor to ceiling bookshelf, aesthetically stocked with books about art, food, and wine for purchase. But as far as reading materials go, you should brave their thick, saddle-stitched wine menu, which offers page upon page of wines by the bottle and a small section dedicated to cocktails and wines by the glass. By the time you make your way through the wine menu, you’ll likely appreciate the limited entree choices that can help you find your way quicker to a final decision. The paté, the omelet with caviar, and the cheese plate are grown enough.
