This is one of my favorite places at Midtown. The only problem I had last night was that the fish we ordered for three was not properly filleted, although our waiter told us that it would be filled. Service, ambience, general comfort, are all top rate.

A great family celebration meal post theatre where genuine New Yorkers can feel apart from the tawdriness of the theatre district. Ample choices on the prix fixe menu, which was a very good value. The desert treats for birthday celebrants was a lovely touch.

The seafood here is always excellent. The waiter was friendly and attentive. The wine list is amazing. We ate there on a Sunday when there was no pre theater crowd. Therefore we were able to talk and enjoy our meal. Whenever we are in NYC, Kellarie is always a great place to eat and relax.
