Tru is a temple of haute cuisine, courtesy of a partnership between restaurateur Rich Melman and award-winning chefs Rick Tramonto and Gale Gand. From the bar area (accented by a striking cobalt sculpture of a female torso) to the private dining salons and main dining area (complete with Riedel stemware, lush linens and an Andy Warhol) Tru is a lavish setting for serious dining, anchored by Tramonto's French-influenced creations and sweetened by Gand's spectacular desserts.
