    The ambiance is great and our server was nice but the service overall seemed out of sync. The food had some triumphs but also some disappointments and we left knowing we wouldn’t come back or recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    This has to be one of the prettiest restaurants in NYC! The food was delicious, and the service was friendly. Come hungry but don't come tired - the service is leisurely!

    One of our top restaurants to go to when we are in NYC. Adorable building, great food, and top service. Pricey but worth it.

    This is an incredibly romantic fine dining restaurant. The food and service are five stars. This is the second year we went for our anniversary. We did the tasting menu... OMG! Not a negative thing to say.

    They have fare ranging from light to heavy. I loved their rich items - the wellington, the cavatelli, and the souffle. What lovely service as well!

    Amazing staff and beautiful restaurant. Ambiance is excellent for conversation and the room feels full of energy, still. Food was fantastic (we had duck and branzino at our table), perfectly cooked and I also recommend the watermelon feta salad. A little on the pricier side than needed (particularly wine) but you know that going in

    I have been wanting to go here for 25 years. Felt like old world/school New York. Thank you to the staff for a wonderful meal and a romantic experience. Everything I wanted for an anniversary dinner.
