Travail’s grand lounge

HOSTED IN TRAVAIL’s BASEMENT BAR

Grand Lounge is a long-overdue collaboration with our friend and James Beard Semifinalist, Jamie Malone of Paris Dining Club. We modeled this tasting menu experience based on our favorite way to enjoy a steakhouse dinner, starting with beautiful one-biters, crudos, and working into some of our favorite cuts of beef. Expect a menu with French influence and Japanese flair. This intimate experience hosted in our cozy basement bar will also feature classic cocktail pairings and a curated wine selection from our head sommelier.

Dinner

The Travail Kitchen team will be serving a special chef’s tasting menu featuring steakhouse inspired dishes. Dinner will be hosted in Travail’s basement bar for a show of table-side cooking and an intimate dining experience with our chef team.

beverage Flights

Our bar team has curated a series of cocktail flights to complement your dinner for the evening. Each flight option will showcase a diversity of flavors to suit each dish. Choose to add a cocktail, wine or spirit-free flight or order a la carte beverages during service.
