Great experience, food was excellent, service was good, noise level is a bit too much, had to yell to hear each other. But otherwise we loved the experience. Our fav dish- the tartare, followed by the truffle mushroom pasta, the waygu flight of three, and the hit me chocolate cake, in that order. Would go back again.

Came after visiting the Whitney Museum on a Friday night around 9:30 PM, with some friends had a reservation. Ordered some steaks, mac and cheese, caesar salad and crispy brussel sprouts, also had a round of drinks. Everything was really great. Service was great, ambience was great. The live DJ was wonderful. I've been here before and I'll be back again.

It was very elegant, the view at night was gorgeous, the presentation and service was amazing 10/10. Food did take a little longer than expected but when it came we devoured our plates. The pork chops are very juicy with a sweet light sauce on top very delicious. The burger is also a good option with the caramelized onions. The only pictures we took of the food was the Caesar salad which was also decent.
