    Great middle eastern style food. Some options I expected were not on the menu like gyro or saffron basmati rice but what we did order were great traditional dishes.

    Run do not walk to David Burke Tavern! A delightful way to spend Christmas. The menu was varied and delicious, the cocktails refreshing and thirst quenching, charming and welcoming ambience, impeccable service and great management. A special thank you and shout out to the gregarious and generous Manager, Mr. Michael Moss! The Manager from the other DB restaurant who was there, the charming and affable Brian. And our special hostess par excellence, Lisa! They each contributed to making our Christmas evening unforgettable and so delightful. Our second very special Christmas there!

    BC Bistro is a hidden gem. Went in there Christmas Eve. Sat at the bar. Steve was an amazing bartender. It was a prefixed menu. The grilled octopus was amazing we also had the egg roll forgot what it was stuffed with, it was Yummy. Short ribs and dinner and of course all the desserts are outstanding. So Merry Christmas BC and Happy New Year.

    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.
