Rotunda is one of those restaurants that I simply love. Okay, full disclosure: it is very 'ladies who lunch'. In other words, this is where my mom takes me after we've been shopping. Even still, I love coming here on my own.
They always give you a tiny tea cup of chicken consomme as well as warm popovers with strawberry butter to start the meal. These two things are to die for. I could eat those popovers daily and never tire of them.
What I photographed above is a standard meal for me when I dine at Rotunda: the lobster club, fries and an absolutely killer bellini. Trust me, that sandwich is worth every bit of the $28 it will cost you to try one.
If you're shopping in the area, this a solid stop for lunch. If you're here around Christmas time, all the better. As for a table by the window, affording you a fantastic view of the decorations around Union Square.

I'd be a really good lady who lunches.
Well, at least the lunching part suits me.
For $28, is the consumee and popover free? The sandwich and fries look NOM! Maybe one day I'll treat myself to lunch here. My birthday IS coming up, after all.
I love that the iPhone encourages your food blogging. Yummy.
Lobster rolls and bellinis are 2 of my favorite foods.
Yes, @10yearstogether, the consumee and the popover is included with anything you order. :)
The Popovers alone are worth it! (especially with that strawberry butter they serve it with!) The one in my NM is called Zodiac and my mother and I hit it up every time we shop there!
You're amazing for posting this and I'm silly for having never eaten there before - no better way to convince my hubby to come into Neimans with me than to offer him a lobster club sandwich. Surely he can't complain!!!! =) =)
