Blue Ribbon at Six Columbus Is Open

Where: 6 Columbus Circle [map], New York, ny, United States, 10019

And with that, Six Columbus is complete. Everything is open, everything is working and we can finally start obsessing about the Thompson Hotels co-owners instead of their eternally delayed Midtown project.

It would be unfair to critique a restaurant that's open for its first night, so we won't do that. But the bar is open, the bar is serving the full menu and the dining room is open. Hotel guests were staking it out, as were local industry workers with time to kill. We were just looking for some dinner.

We had six Barron Point oysters from the menu of daily specials, served with ponzu sauce. We also had the basic sushi platter: seven nigiri and one roll. There are a few shochu drinks, a well-edited wine-by-the-glass menu and some old-school cocktails.

And, yes, the menu looked very similar to the one in the rooms.
