Pauli Moto’s

Pauli Moto’s, web site, 7852-L Tysons Corner Center, McLean, VA (Tysons I), 703-556-7777 (Metro Trip Planner – opens in new window) [MenuPages | WaPo | City Paper | Tarting It Up | Don Rockwell | Yelp]
This is by Pauli Moto, the guy with the TV show and the fancy nouvelle Asian place in Philadelphia. I suppose he showed up for the opening, or something like that.
The food here is carefully made, reasonably tasty, and no doubt it is the best restaurant in Tysons Mall. The seafood is quite fresh. That said, I find the place a bore, and a somewhat expensive bore at that. Best for when there are lines everywhere else and you need to eat somewhere before the movie.
My first evaulation stands.

    It’s closed for “renvoations,” or so it says on the window. Not sure whether those are interior renovations or food renovations.

    It is now “Serenity” Chinese. Not sure if it is new owners or just remodel. The menu seemed suspiciously similar to East Chateau, so I was hopeful, but alas disappointed…although there are Chinese daily selections and maybe are good for the serious (i.e. real) Chinese food, not Chinese take-out food. Will leave to to true Chinese foodies to try…
