   It's wonderful to return to a restaurant after many years and find that it is still excellent. Adam at the Musket Room was an incredibly gracious host. He said something that you don't hear in many restaurants in New York when our table was delayed, "We are here to wait on you, not for you to wait on us." He generously bought us some drinks and nibbles to make up for the wait. We were celebrating a birthday and he made the birthday girl feel very special. The breads and spreads were wonderful. I don't know which was better the anchovy butter or the chicken liver mousse and everything looked beautiful. We had the caviar service which was fun and delicious! Also, the Hamachi, the endive salad and the gnocchi. For mains we have the salmon, the Wagyu beef, and the duck. Everything was beautifully presented and gobbled up! We did think the desserts were not as delicious as the rest of the meal. The panna cotta and the vegan cheesecake were more curious than divine, but nice. He sent out the vacherin as a bday surprise and that was EXCELLENT! Totally SOLID meal. We look forward to trying Rafs and coming back to the Musket Room again. We

   I think if the restaurant is behind and you have to seat your guests 30 minutes late something should be done for them; it’s more about the gesture and not because we were expecting something. Also if the guests did get seated late maybe the service team should be more aware of it and be more attentive from the beginning. Reservation was for 9, got seated at 9:30 and someone finally came to us at 9:45. Food and ambience was fine but service really wasn’t up to par. Also they lost my umbrella and was very casual about it.

   The food was good. My husband and I enjoyed two of the three spreads that accompanied the bread appetizer. The gnocchi, duck and rabbit were all good but not dishes we would run back for. Dessert was a big miss. They were out of one of the few offerings and the cheesecake we were able to order had a very unusual and off putting gummy and gritty texture. The service was going ok, but when it came time to pay we were surprised when no one could help us use our InKind app (a dining card they work with) to pay. Not a complete fail but we won’t be returning.

    We had received a gift certificate to your lovely restaurant from a cherished relative who knows we are both foodies. We occasionally dine out in Manhattan but have been disappointed with overly precious and pretentious restaurants. We have to admit we were a bit skeptical because your establishment looked so on trend. Boy, were we surprised. Thanks to the supremely gracious wait staff and superb food we were chastened that we had any doubts. We are an older couple and were afraid we would be overlooked for trendier diners. Nothing could be further from the truth. Although the food and presentation were the stars of the show, kudos to our server Vanessa, who made our evening. She was the perfect balance of genuinely friendly and attentive but unobtrusive. It was like dining with friends. The other servers were delightful also. I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a dinner out as much. This restaurant certainly has it all together. May you have many more years of success. We will be returning!
