content: So...BInkley's was all puffed up with not much to show for it.  WE heard amazing things but our experience felt like being ripped off by the finest con artists out there. The waiters have a great script and the emphasis on the little micro treats between courses doesn't make up for the microscopic portions of this \""tasting menu\"".  We hold as our standard for a tasting menu Barbara Lynch's Mentons in Boston.  While each of their portions are elegantly small, there's more than one bite. What irritated me most was the waiters fine monologue about the merits of Japanese Cobe beef which justified a 17 dollar surcharge on an already expensive menu.  When it arrived, it was delicious but I fight to make it more than one bite. Forget the theatrics Binkley's.  People want to feel fed and nurtured after a meal, not conned.  This chef has great technical acumen but NO HEART. If you're hungry, steer clear of BInks!
