A pioneer in American cuisine, chef Grant Achatz represents the best of the molecular gastronomy movement–brilliant fundamentals and exquisite taste paired with a groundbreaking approach to new techniques and equipment. ALINEA showcases Achatz’s cuisine with more than 100 dishes (totaling 600 recipes) and 600 photographs presented in a deluxe volume. Three feature pieces frame the book: Michael Ruhlman considers Alinea’s role in the global dining scene, Jeffrey Steingarten offers his distinctive take on dining at the restaurant, and Mark McClusky explores the role of technology in the Alinea kitchen. Buyers of the book will receive access to a website featuring video demonstrations, interviews, and an online forum that allows readers to interact with Achatz and his team.
“Achatz is something new on the national culinary landscape: a chef as ambitious as Thomas Keller who wants to make his mark not with perfection but with constant innovation . . . Get close enough to sit down and allow yourself to be teased, challenged, and coddled by Achatz’s version of this kind of cooking, and you can have one of the most enjoyable culinary adventures of your life.” –Corby Kummer, senior editor of Atlantic Monthly
Welcome to the Alinea ticket sales site.
Alinea will be selling tickets rather than accepting traditional restaurant reservations beginning with the August 2012 bookings. Tickets will be sold for the Tasting menu only. A service charge and tax will be added upon checkout. All beverage selections including our wine pairings, wines by the bottle, non-alcoholic options, and coffee and tea service may be ordered and paid for when you dine.
Pricing for our Tasting menu will vary between $ 210 and $ 265 depending on the day of the week. The menu is the same regardless of price. We may occasionally price special days and times below or above that range.
Alinea strives to provide personalized, exceptional customer service. Every ticket purchaser will receive a phone call from our staff to confirm details of particular needs, dietary restrictions, or special requests.
Keep informed of ticket sales and events by following our page on Facebook and our Twitter feed @Alinea.
Alinea has always been about innovation and pushing the envelope in the culinary arts. As we mature as a restaurant you can be certain that we will continue to take risks and explore the cutting edge of cuisine and fine dining… so long as it remains delicious and fun.
