    Our waitress Chloe was outstanding. We had one little hiccup with the manager over a waffle. His tone and attitude was quite surprising. Overall we had a good time. As always the food was delicious.

    The food was fantastic—our wings were perfectly crispy, the steak was cooked just right, and the swordfish was absolutely top-notch. The Rockefeller oyster was hands-down my favorite, and their Caesar salads were truly something to rave about. The cod did have a smoky flavor that didn’t quite blend well with the Cajun rice, but that was a minor note in an otherwise stellar meal. The drinks were well worth the price, and our server was incredible—a true tour guide through the menu, leading me straight to my ultimate dish, which was absolutely delightful. The service, ambiance, and attention to detail made for a great experience. Thank you for a wonderful evening! We’ll definitely be back.

    Wonderful professional service and classy wood paneled interior with excellent savory flavors in all dishes. My fish of the day was corvina (like bass) and it was perfectly tender on a delicious bed of spinach and tomatoes without a hint of saltiness which I appreciate.

    What a perfect lunch. Small beet salad off the tasting menu for starters, followed by two magnificent pasta dishes. She enjoyed the Torchio pasta with tomatoes, pesto and crispy prosciutto while I went to heaven on the Strozzapreti ragu alla bolognese. To die for!! Warm chocolate torte and pumpkin cheesecake and next thing you know old Jed’s a millionaire. Best lunch in forever. Service was attentive and the team went above and beyond. Can’t wait to get back here.

    Teddy Bear Tea We have enjoyed this event annually for many years. The savory portion and the tea options were average at best. The dessert portion was excellent. It is way overpriced but still a neat event. Honestly though we will likely skip the tea in future years and just do happy hour at the sushi bar instead. The Tea price is close to the price of afternoon tea at the Plaza in NYC but does not hold a candle to the Plaza’s tea.
