Frommer's Review
With its unattractive exterior, the Tower can be off-putting, but true foodies will persevere. American-born Seamus O'Connell has made a name as a truly innovative chef. He uses the freshest ingredients -- most from local markets -- and adds layers of ingredients on top of that foundation. His style is unusual and iconoclastic, and his menu reads like a roster of unlikely flavor combinations: swordfish on banana ketchup? Hot smoked salmon with lemon geranium sauce? Kumquats in Rioja wine? This place is not for the faint of heart, but it has many devoted fans.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
