My family came from out of town for Thanksgiving and we decided to role the dice on eating out. We heard horror stories. We made the mistake of not including our kids as guest for the reservation and we thought our nightmare had begun. But the hostess made an exception and it was all uphill from there. From the ambiance to the service to the food, everything was seriously perfect. I never write reviews and this place made me take the time and write one. Every manager, every server, everyone was happy to be there, even on Thanksgiving. They really made it so welcoming and inviting. Every interaction was memorable it was insane. And don’t get me started on the food. O.M.G. This place was a blessing and for thanksgiving we were thankful for each team member, the food, and overall experience. We will be back!!!!!

Beautiful food, beautifully presented and enhanced by a cheerful and helpful staff made this one memorable Thanksgiving. It helped that we got there at 2:00, the first seating. There was Santa visiting the tables, a nice musical duo, a view!! and well dressed guests, and beautifully decorated trees that made it seem like a holiday. A very pleasant surprise, right in the middle of Times Square. And this from a local and native NY'er.

A special place for a beautiful time. If you want to indulge yourself with elegance, this is where you should go. Pricey, for sure, but every now and then you just have to.
