    Too many better choices in NYC. Wine program is surprisingly underwhelming and confusing - with limited selections and uneducated team.

    The specials off the menu were extensive and well presented. Table side pasta, salad and dessert is a special touch. Some of the pricing was not on the menu and very expensive.Half-portion of truffle pasta was not cut in half but over priced for sharing. Some side dishes (broccoli rabe) were expensive and bland. The zucchini flowers were tasty but a bit soggy. The staff continuously asked if we wanted drinks, wine, after dinner liquors as if to keep adding to the bill. Be prepared: for two people it was almost $500
