    Fabulous experience & Excellent service/ambience. From the moment we got seated, all staff and Sophia specifically made us feel very welcome and ensured we understood the vegetarian variations of the delicacies. Absolutely loved the truffle pizza and the tiramisu and had to order a second one before the night got over. Will definitely recommend and revisit ourselves.

    LOVE! One of the best meals I have had in NYC ever. They took great attention to detail in the service and the food. I have a nut allergy and I was happy to hear that they had a system in place to eliminate cross contamination and I felt safe eating. Plus everything we ate was delicious. The cauliflower appetizer, king pao chicken and the short rib were my favorites. But everything we ate was delicious
