Thank you for making our time in NYC so enjoyable and easy. We came up from North Carolina to celebrate our daughter's graduation from college and were staying in a nearby hotel. Our reservation for 8 people was easily booked in advance; we were promptly seated; staff was polite and attentive; everything from cocktails to coffee was excellent. Again, thank you for making our last evening in NYC so special for our family and friends.
