    Beautiful room. Absolutely outstanding service! We were celebrating a birthday, and they made it very special. The food was mixed. LOVED the pull apart bread and the beet and caesar salads. Two of our party had beef main dishes, and they were below the quality we expected for the prices. The salmon was delicious. Wonderful chocolate lava cake. Overall, the attentive staff, lovely setting, and mostly excellent food made for a fine evening.

    We ordered the Milk bread appetizer. It was very salty. The cream in the center of the bread really had little taste. The butternut squash rigatoni was very dry. The flavor not good. It didn’t seem freshly cooked. The mashed potatoes were literally covered in so much butter and pesto. It seems they use butter and salt overly to flavor there foods. The pasta was definitely not freshly cooked. It was a disappointing meal. Staff were attentive.

    A wonderful French breakfast in New York - strongly recommended to visit 😊. Delicious croissants, tasty scrambled eggs and a good Cappuccino, together with a calm and elegant atmosphere- definitely worth a visit!!

    A deserted restaurant even though I had trouble getting a reservation. They seemed surprised to see us when we arrived at 9:30pm. Service was good. Appetizer was very good. Main fish courses were disappointing- over cooked and pretty tasteless.

    Recently was in NYC staying in the Financial District on business. I dined here for breakfast multiple times & dinner. The food was amazing! Compliments to the chef & his entire team. The bartenders were great when I had dinner. However, the best part of my experience was having Lulu (Ludra) take care of me almost everytime I dined for breakfast. Friendly, warm, welcoming & great attention to detail! Highly recommend this place!
