The real high end:
Japanese - Nobu in SoHO not uptown (went again recently and it was amazing try some of the recommended cooked dishes as well they are superb)
Others:
Per Se
Daniel
The River Cafe (spectacular views of Manhattan from across the Brooklyn Bridge)
11 Madison (used to be better IMHO, but still top notch)

A bit less high end but very good:

Public(owned by friends of mine,but this is still an honest opinion they have done several restaurants around the world now)
Double Crown (same crew as above just opened a month ago,so he can be ahead of the crowd)
Mercat (tapas, this is on a block where some of the newest most beautiful luxury condos are being built, very cool to see)
Alto
Luppa

Let me know if you need more or ideas based on location or type of cuisene

Per Se is a 7 or 9 course price fixe which will leave you stuffed to the gills so if he goes he should be hungry. Will definitely need a hotel concierge to get into most of the high end ones.

Nice places for drinks:
Brandy Library
The Stone Rose

thanks for the replies so far ! He loves the Michelin type restaurants (price is not really a problem for him).
I'll give him the names and look up the websites.

thanks !

Frenzy,
Carmine's is a great Italian restaurant serving excellent family style portions. In Manhattan. They have a sister restaurant in Atlantic City NJ. 2 hours drive south if he wants to travel also 4 star all around!

The NY Carmines has been there for many years and done extremely well while the AC NJ location only about 7 years...

Bon Appetit!
