The front bar is the perfect place for a cocktail before dinner and do not hesitate to visit Bar Americano located on the lower… level where DJ spins every night.

"Feels like you're in a ian schrager type hangout/hotel, cool Chelsea crowd, off the beaten track. Garden could do with some personality, front of house staff a little moody. Food was good, not brilliant, but far too expensive to make it a regular hangout. Cool spot for a boutique hotel though."

"Quite expensive, but tasty. The pancakes were wonderful, the chicken sausage was great, and the croissant was heavenly. My companion had nothing but good things to say about her eggs and coffee.

The service was generally attentive, but I was a bit miffed when a waitress reached onto the table and took my companion's not-yet-empty plate before asking if she was done. (She wasn't.) And while I don't mind that the bill included tip already (18%), I was a disappointed that the credit card receipt to be signed included a line for tip but didn't indicate that it was already included in the bill. A marginally attentive diner will find themselves more than doubling the gratuity."

"Went on a sunday for Brunch. We got there about 20 mins early and they were able to squeeze us in after about a 10 min wait. It was really busy and there was a nice live jazz band playing. The music was very nice but did make it hard to have a conversation. Service was good but slow. Food was excellent. We all had smoothies and club sandwiches with fries and dessert. Everything was great!"

"A great place for brunch/lunch before the Chelsea galleries. Although the menu is not huge, there is something for everyone, and the bloody mary is outstanding. The service can be a little distracted - I've never been able to get them to serve the milk WITH my coffee, but everyone is very pleasant and welcoming. Eggs, sandwiches and the latin-tinged dishes are all good sized and delicious."
