    The food was good but we were sat in an empty room completely on our own and our mains arrived before our entrees were even finished with.

    I went to celebrate a birthday. Quiet ambiance. I was sat in a room with one other table. Being that that area of the resturaunt was pretty empty, I decided to take photos and I did have a small camera light. One of the employees came in stating that the light is blinding her and that we are disturbing other guests. The only other table seated at that time even chimed in stating that actually they are not bothering us. I let the employee know that this side of the restaurant is actually pretty empty and that we were not disturbing anyone, as no one else is here. Being that I was celebrating a birthday that turned me off. I did ask to speak to the manager who was quite understanding. We brought in a bottle of champagne requesting bottle service, we were then informed that we could not get bottle service being that this bottle is already sold at the restaurant. Another downer of the night. Manager did send over complimentary wine and a birthday desert which we appreciated. Overall food was ok, waiter was nice, please note that you can’t take pictures. The only thing I did enjoy was the oxtail dumplings and the lobster roll. Everything else was pretty basic. I will not be returning, but I do appreciate the kindness of the manager.

    Ambiance is great but AWFUL service and unfriendly staff. Waited 50 mins to be seated for my reservations which ruined comedy show reservations we had after. Even after being seated it took almost 25 minutes to get our drink order. They were not acommidating to changes to food preferences and allergies. Will not come back and would not recommend unless you have all the time in the world. Food was very good but there are plenty of other vibey restaurants in NYC with much better food.

    From out of town. Worth a stop and wait. Food was very good and reasonable price wise. The grand dining room with chandeliers is beautiful. We went late, the wait for the food was a bit long but the place was buzzing, to be expected.
