Wonderful meal in a really great steakhouse with a cool atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally attentive and the dining experience was elevated compared to most typical steakhouses. The creme brûlée cream corn was a star at our table.

Our first time at this restaurant. The server was excellent and helped us navigate the menu. Food was some of the best Japanese I have ever had-- I have visited Japan over 6 times. We will definitely return on our next visit to NYC.

We missed our train and were 15 minutes for our reservation. The hostess was lovely and told us not worry. We were seated immediately. The food was excellent - we shared the ricotta gnocchi and honey crisp apple salad. Excellent.

Outstanding service all night. They were able to accommodate a big group, and the food and service was terrific and prices very reasonable for NYC. Great place for a high quality but casual dinner with friends or a group. Would definitely go again.

    We had the best time there the other night. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable and recommend to us the best menu for our group. The food was outstanding, the drinks were perfect. The truffle toro though, that needs to win awards - wow. Highly recommend
