    Excellent food, but the service was mediocre, due to the lack of wait staff. When they did appear they were very gracious. I also did not like the price of the bread basket as all I wanted was one small roll. And my dining partner didn’t want any bread. I will definitely return.

    We went for jazz brunch before the theater and it was lively and festive. We all ended up getting the Eggs Benedict and a variety of coffee. The waitress was great and accommodated any manner of hot/iced, regular/decaf, with different creamers. She was wonderful. The food came out quick and hot and they also accommodated our desire to get next door to the theater efficiently. The bartenders, too, were lovely while we waited for our table. All in all a quick but fulfilling experience.

    Great food and a nice, mildly boisterous ambiance. High prices - expect to spend $100 per person.

    Our dining experience was fantastic from beginning to end; we enjoyed every moment. We even had a good laugh over the mix-up with the wagyu, but honestly, it turned out to be the best we've ever had. I can't think of a single dish or dessert we didn't love, and a big shoutout to Jared, the pastry chef, for making my early birthday dinner special. I really hope no 9 sticks around because the food here is the best in the city. Again thank you for amazing evening
