where do i begin! the entire experience was nothing short of incredible. From the food to our server Angel. his deep voice added a soothing tone to what was a crowded restaurant. the beet salad was so good i was left wanting more, and the branzino was beautifully cooked, and finally the honey lavender gelato is a must-have as the refined flavor melted right on my tongue. Overall, the food was amazing and the service is the epitome of what nyc hospitality should be!
