Twist by Pierre Gagnaire is the chef's only restaurant in the United States, and its amazing French food is known for being deliciously creative. Located on the 23rd floor of Mandarin Oriental, Twist boasts an innovative menu that gives classic French cuisine a modern spin. Menu options change seasonally, but a tasting menu and a la carte options are available. The seasonal menu changes to incorporate the freshest food. Diners can expect to see dishes like venison with juniper berry, braised turnips and red cabbage, or line-caught sea bass with an endive and grapefruit fondue and mixed wild mushrooms. Twist features floor-to-ceiling windows and a dramatic glass staircase leading up to a suspended wine loft, but the restaurant's most striking feature is arguably its lighting, which incorporates more than 300 gold globes designed to look as if they're floating in the air across the ceiling.
