A Culinary Journey Through Europe

The menu at Saros Bar & Dining is a true celebration of European flavors, with each dish meticulously prepared to showcase the finest ingredients and culinary techniques. Our evening began with the Bluefin Tuna Tartare, a dish that is as visually stunning as it is delectable. The delicate texture and vibrant freshness of the tuna, paired with Chef Nestor’s impeccable presentation, set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience.
Next came the Capesante (scallops), a dish that quickly became a table favorite. Cooked to perfection, these tender morsels were bathed in a buttery richness that enveloped the taste buds with each bite, leaving us yearning for more.
While the mains were certainly enjoyable, it was the desserts that truly stole the show. We ended our meal with the Paris Brest and Louis XV, two desserts that epitomize elegance and indulgence. The Paris Brest, with its light choux pastry and praline cream, was a delightful contrast to the rich, chocolatey decadence of the Louis XV. Unable to choose a favorite, we recommend ordering both for a sweet conclusion to your dining experience at Saros.
