   We had excellent seats, enjoying a sunny day while still being comfortably shaded. The atmosphere was very welcoming, and we found it easy to get our orders for horses each time we requested them. Everything we ordered arrived just as we specified, and the pricing was quite reasonable. We particularly appreciated how strong the drinks were, which added to our enjoyment. I would definitely consider returning and would recommend this place for a first-time visit. However, it was a bit disappointing that they didn’t have the dolls featured in the pictures we had seen. We were informed they would be back in about a month, which is understandable but not ideal since that was part of our reason for visiting. Overall, it was a great experience, despite that small setback.

   I booked a table a day before for 4, as a very last minute change of plans for Mother's Day. 3 of us arrived about 10mins before our reservation time and were seated immediately. What sucked was sitting at a table that was half in the sun and half in the shade, but I understand due to the way the roof was constructed. What was weird is that the hostess gave us 3 menus and then when we were taking a picture - she took 2 away... (they later took them away again because they said they don't have enough for their guests). Overall the restaurant was spacious, but extremely loud. My friend who has been there before said the music was way lower last time she came. It was uncomfortable to have a conversation with my party. The food was great. We came during brunch hours. Prices for drinks are average for NYC $18-20. Food cost $14-22 a plate, depending what you ordered. We came to celebrate so we ordered almost half of the menu. What everyone was really impressed with was the Dubai Chocolate Croissant ($18). Delicious. We also ordered the Egghead on the Roof ($16), which was basically a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. I had the Country Toast ($16). It was just one slice of bread with avocado, an egg and a blob of ricotta I believe. It was pretty good, I genuinely enjoyed it. The little slider burgers ($22) were great. We also ordered The Basket of pastries ($14), Granola ($11), Chicken Fingers ($19), Side Fries ($12), and some alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. The Moira Rose ($20) has a great presentation. They bring out a rose shaped ice in a wine glass and poured the drink over it at the table. For the end, we ordered the Palette Cleanser with 4 shots of Vodka (x2) and Tequila (x2). They weren't pure, but mixed with something; tasted very fruity. We love it. Before we left we took some picture on the terrace which had ok view of the city (we weren't on the Empire State Building side). Everyone enjoyed themselves overall.

   We went there (myself and 10 y old daughter) for Mother’s Day brunch. We were seated next to speakers and could barely hear each other. Also the roof was retracted and there was no shade and our seats were very hot to the touch. Our server was not very busy but was very slow to respond and bring drink refills (we literally just drank water and it wasn’t until we were about to leave that she brought a carafe. Food was ok but a little pricey for what it was.

   We had a great time with a party of 12 on a Saturday evening at 10pm. It was fantastic that we were able to make a reservation for our group without a minimum cost.
