Everything was and always is perfect. The restaurant is run like a well oiled machine so the service is outstanding with happy servers. Will was perfect last night. The food is always excellent which is why the restaurant is booked every night. The noise level is festive and still so comfortable to have a conversation. Finally, it’s very NY. The patrons are from the neighborhood, this is not a tourist spot.

This is a very cool place with a good vibe. The service was very good. The food was also very good. Have the Crudo. It was delicious. Steak frites is a classic. Drinks were tasty. Although I would not recommend their peach flavored old fashioned. I would definitely go back

    This restaurant has been on my bucket list for some time now and it was well worth the wait! Our server was super personable and gave excellent menu suggestions. I tried the beef bourguignon, which was on the specials. And it absolutely did not disappoint! The biggest treat was our dessert. The chocolate pots de creme had every element from sweet to salty to crunchy to sour. Perfect for a midweek date night.

    Outstanding experience! The food was uniformly delicious. We started with maple-glazed Brussels sprouts and the roasted beet salad with horseradish cream and toasted pistachios—a fantastic start. The sprouts were so good we ordered more! I shared the halibut and branzino with a friend, and both were excellent. The halibut’s clams, mushrooms, asparagus, English peas, and beurre blanc were a wonderful complement. Our friends thoroughly enjoyed the ribeye, which was cooked to perfection. The servers were attentive and welcoming, making the evening all the more enjoyable. Everyone at the table left happy. Highly recommend!
