Thoughts from those in the know:

John Mariani, Acclaimed Food Critic:
“At Arabelle Chef Ike Koutrakos works his menu to please but not to pander. It is just as American as it is French, as are most deluxe menus, even in Paris, these days... One of the most interesting young chefs in New York right now.”
Alex Lee, Former Chef de Cuisine Restaurant Daniel, NYC:
“The curiosity and passion he feels for food is visible.”
Jacques Sorci, Executive Chef/ Food & Beverage Manager Ritz Carlton, Battery Park, NYC:
“This chef is a superstar. You must see this man in action- he is an inspiration to new chefs and a breath of fresh air for those of us who have been around for some time.”
Barbara D’Onofrio-Getze, The James Beard Foundation:
“The response has been incredible. We have heard rave reviews about the foods and wines presented. It has been an honor to work with you.”
Susan Ungaro, President James Beard Foundation:
“It was an extraordinary and delicious evening thanks to you!”
