    We had an amazing dinner experience last night. Our waitress Kathy, from Venezuela, was one of the best parts of our evening. She was in tuned to our needs, knowledge of the menu and drinks, and very charismatic. Our meal was delicious, I got the spaghetti and the addition of baratta cheese was fantastic. The atmosphere was the icing on the cake. I felt like we were in some far away land. The twinkle lights, the trees, it was magical.

    Dinner was so delicious! Service was great—really appreciate them making Christmas Eve so special! Very family friendly. We ordered an appetizer and then had one dish of the chicken Alfredo. It was literally the best I’ve ever had. It fed two adults and two children. The kids loved it and cleared their plates. Then we had the Italian cheesecake and hot fudge brownie. Both were great, definitely recommend the brownie.

    I don’t recall his name but our server was outstanding! Pleasant, fun, and helpful. The family talked about what a great vibe he brought to dinner! We go as a family every time we go to NYC (our third trip) and food is always delicious, with PLENTY to go around. Also appreciated the water pitcher on the table. As a large family (table of 9), it’s so much easier to keep the water glasses full ourselves. Thanks again!!

    The food was delicious (our party had a Caesar, & mozzarella app to start, veal, chicken and two pasta dishes, then tiramisu). The service was impeccable. We love the old school vibe of the place with black tie waiters, white tablecloths, coat check girl, and pics of celebs lining the halls. Lovely Christmas decorations made for a warm and festive time. I was just sorry we weren’t there on a night with the piano player because I know from past visits that really brings the dining room alive and makes everything lively and festive. This place is reliably good and a standby for us in the city.

    From start to finish, the entire experience was memorable in a number of ways. From the baked clams appetizer to the tiramisu for dessert, both the food, and level of service was something that is a rarity to find nowadays. The staff was highly attentive, and ensured that our drinks were always full, as well as a complimentary after dinner drink which merely topped off an already amazing meal. 5/5 Would recommend and will be here again.
