Food was very good and service was good but waitress was too much in a rush to get drink and food orders. When we took too much times, she acted very annoyed!! We sat next to bathroom so too busy with the bathroom traffic!!

We went late, 8pm on a Sunday. The food, service, and atmosphere was quiet and lightly festive, just the right amount of cozy and warm on an otherwise busy, noisy New York day. 15/10

Seated by the front door for a holiday prefixes dinner. not impressed by anything on the prefixe menu. Lobster pasta was ok. Steak was chewy and did not eat it. Was a corporate event close to office and will not return. Extremely disappointed

We choose this restaurant for pre theatre because they had Lobster pasta dishes that my GF likes. This was our first time there nothing but big tables and very small bistro style tables for two. We had to move our table because we we stuck next two tables of 10 and the door. I ordered a very nice bottle of Baralo for $250, the wine was warm and I sent it back. The 2nd bottle was no better but I kept it cause we were on a time crunch and gf gets upset with me when I complained about wine. It was evident that they stored it poorly. Her pasta was not good little lobster meat that was diced so small it was not even a fork full. She said the sauce was bland. I had the steak and it was so bad I couldn’t even eat 1/2 of it. I have had better meals at a dinner. The service was good but if had not been for the expensive wine I don’t think we would have received so much attention. They were nice enough to remove the food from the bill. Two of the big shots who run the place asked me about the meal. I told them both it’s either bad meat you buy or the chef. In this case it’s both.

Dear James, thank you for posting your review. We sincerly apologize for not meeting expectations, all of our attempts clearly failed. This time of the year we do have some larger tables of families and friends celebrating the holidays however we absolutely provide the same great service and attention to all of our guests regardless of what they spend in wine. We appreciate the 5 star service review and wish you and girlfriend a great holiday season. Here is my contact number if you'd like to further discuss this issue - 646.490.8240.
