Restaurants near Albert Lysander Parham Playground

My wife and I visited Cecconi’s to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary, and the entire experience was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The staff was super nice and went out of their way to make the evening special, seating us at a table with an incredible view that perfectly set the mood for the night. Every person we interacted with was incredibly welcoming, but they truly went above and beyond by bringing out our dessert with a special candle to surprise us for our celebration. We really appreciate the whole staff for making our milestone so unforgettable and would highly recommend this place to anyone!

Beautiful experience! I love the daily specials. The lobster pasta (daily special at the time, might not be available all the time), oxtails, rice & peas, mango bae drink, the sorrel spritz, blackberry whiskey mule, and ackee/salt fish egg roll appetizer were ALL 10/10. Can’t wait to go back to try the Branzino.

We’ve been going regularly to Sailor since it opened in 2023. This is our favorite restaurant.

What an incredible find. This will be an annual visit for dinner when I come to nyc for work ! Loved every bite - beautiful oysters and incredible steaks and sides. An excellent wine list and a wonderful historic ambience ! Worth booking as it gets popular and for good reason !

The servers were super kind and attentive and made sure to come around and keep everyones water full. We had chips and salsa as an appetizer, the salsa and guacamole were really good! The salsa was super flavorful, but not chunky at all if that's what you're into. My fiancée got chicken fajitas and they came out fresh and hot. She thought they were great and enjoyed the rest later as there was enough to take a little with us. I ordered a steak wet burrito with red sauce and it was awesome - with the chips from the appetizer especially! It was a nice sized burrito so i finished a little later too with a couple of the leftover chips. The restaurant was super small inside (probably 3 or 4 tables and a bigger party table) but very nicely decorated I really like the lighting and the party table on the back had some nice mirrors and a curtain for privacy. They did also have some outdoor seating if that's your thing too. It was very loud in there I will say though and it was hard to hear eachother and the server talk. But that wasnt a huge deal to us - but I know its worth noting for some.
