A bit pricey but it was totally worth it!5/16/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect for a date and great timeHaving tried Alex Guarnaschelli's menu at Butter, I knew The Darby wouldn't let me down. Brought my boyfriend here for a date, and boy we had such an amazing time. Cocktails were perfectly crafted; we were able to enjoy them while listening to the outstanding jazz performance. Our table was right in front of the stage, and while most people may think that such a location would be distracting, it was perfect nonetheless. As for dinner, I had the pork chop and he had the branzino, both of which were to die for. We also tried the veal bacon to nibble on and it was incredibly savory and delicious.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMNYC Night OutWe had a great evening listening to the jazz duo while enjoying our dinner.

Nice selection of both east and west coast oysters. We tried and would recommend the veal "bacon", the oven-roasted striped Bass and the seared beef filet and we tasted the roasted Brussels sprouts and the cauliflower gratin. Everything was great. I suggest tasting several items; everything we saw and/or tasted was wonderful. The wine list is limited and needs to be expanded. Great 20's music (that I understand changes daily).3/12/2013 12:00:00 AMWe celebrated our Valentine'sWe celebrated our Valentine's Celebration there. My husband is not a romantic, but if you go to the Darby, it will be a romantic night. They have great cocktails, delicious food coupled with the band and it made the perfect night. It is a must for large group (especially out-of-towners) or an intimate celebration. It is so fun! The hostess Moira (sp.) was so sweet!2/16/2013 12:00:00 AMLoved this place.
