Best Historic Restaurants in Midtown East

If you want a real treat, look no further. From the wonderfully presented drinks at the bar, to the amazing waiting staff (shout out to Toni) to the sumptuous food, we couldn’t fault it. The ambience was old school. We shared a seafood platter for 4 to start. It was 10/10. 2 of us had the lamb chops (best I’ve ever tasted) & 2 had the steaks (delicious) and we ordered creamed spinach and whipped potatoes. We had just enough room for deserts and coffee. We never felt rushed and nothing was too much trouble. What a wonderful dining experience we had.

I made an reservation and arrived about 15 minutes early which allowed us to enjoy some time at the bar. The bar staff were absolutely amazing! Unfortunately, we waited 43 minutes past our scheduled time before I mentioned to the bartender that no one had come to seat us. The young lady who checked us in seemed a bit flustered at first but eventually realized she hadn’t come to get us when the table was ready. After being seated, it took a while for someone to come over for our drink orders. Once we finally got our drinks, there was another wait to place our food order. The food was fantastic, but the service needs improvement—particularly with a more reliable hostess and servers. The bar staff are doing a great job, but they can’t handle everything on their own. Overall, despite these few hiccups, our experience was fantastic, and I would definitely return!
