   Slow service on a Saturday. Space is very tight. We were seated close to the back with a constant draft. Drinks (mr atticus) excellent. Food was decent. The location and views create a remarkable ambiance.

   We arrived before the dinner crowd, but the wait staff forgot to bring my friend’s drink, even though they weren’t even busy yet. The tables were setup way too close to each other for profit, waters and guests had a hard time navigating, impossible to get out of your table and all around without brushing against others or their tables. Food was ok/good, everything tasted good, but most were hard to chew. The view and neighborhood are lovely, if you reserve table ahead of time or arrive not in rush hours, you get window seats. I also recommend ordering food that are easy to cook softer/moister. Food quality is good, but their cooking it isn’t the best.

   It isn’t worth the trouble of getting there. The food is as lousy as the view is stunning. My suggestion would be to take a walk on the esplanade and then remove to a restaurant where the emphasis is on the food and not the view. Alas one can’t eat the view.

   We had reservations for two people at 12:00pm. Got there at 11:58am but doors were locked. We could see employees looking at us from inside, reservation came and went and they still didn’t let us in until 12:10pm. Very weird. We were provided menus, after some time we submitted out orders. 15 minutes later the waitress returns and says she accidentally gave us the wrong menu and we need to choose from a different menu. We chose a different order. When food came out, one of the orders was wrong. Towards the end we noticed a commotion at another table. This other table paid their bill, but the waitress returned their receipt but not their card. They were looking around for the card and eventually found it. When we paid our bill I jokingly said to my friend that I bet their card wasn’t inside. Sure enough, they also didn’t return our card and had to go hunt for it. Good food, but overall extremely slow service and repeated sloppy mistakes.

    Everything was great. I had the Chilean sea bass which was perfect. They were a tad slow in serving it and knew we were making a show and offered complimentary wine and profuse apologies. We made our show easily but greatly appreciated their concern. Highly recommend.

    My husband planned a birthday dinner for me here. It’s a cozy space well decorated. It has an amazing view! My server was sweet. He had a slight misstep but bounced back nicely. The food was delicious and The drinks were well made. Will definitely be coming back over the summer to experience their outdoor space.

    The saganaki, prawns, squid ink pasta and paella are good. The tomahawk steak is bland and not worth the price, the hanging octopus/squid is just okay. The ambiance and service are both great. Overall experience was okay.

    It took us an hour and half to get our first appetizer. Second appetizer was just a trio of dips and pita and we never even got that. Took another 40 min to get our main dish. Overall horrible service and kitchen was so backed up. The kitchen is wayyyy to small for such a large place. Also the open kitchen does not work here. It’s not a nice kitchen you want to see, it looks like a diner. Also it just creates noise of panicked waitstaff lingering near the open kitchen. Would be much nicer ambiance if the kitchen was completely closed off.

We were happy with the Lamb chops; the sauce is great. The Chilean sea bass was tasty but small. Overall a great experience - we will return

    Fresh and delicious seafood! We had the flying octopus and garlic prawns. The prawns were huge and tender. Octopus was presented in a unique way! Tables were very tight to the point where we had to shift people and table to get in and out. However the waiters and bartenders were friendly and attentive. Overall a wonderful experience on the Hudson River!

    Food was just ok and and the portions as small I have seen in NYC. Wine was below average. Server was excellent but manager was jerk coming to our table to kick us out by 10pm because there was no one else in the restaurant. Good outside seating. Unfortunately I would not recommend it based on food portions and manager behavior

    You can only go there if you like very loud music. The quality of the food is fair. If you want to leave through the apartment building to get directly to the street you must wait until a resident happens to come by. The gate is locked and the restaurant doesn't have a key.

    This place is just amazingly beautiful. The staff? Phenomenal. And they speak multiple languages which was so helpful (shout out to Maya!!!). The service was amazing. The food? Delicious. It was my first time trying Greek food and they really did an amazing job. The view was gorgeous and the vibe is picture ready as well. Everybody was super kind, I absolutely loved it and will be going back soon!!! Highly recommend.
