    Double the price of Philippe with portions half the size and not as good taste or presentation. Also, they brought the wrong dish and, when told, didn’t bother to say sorry. I am born and raised in Manhattan and have been to many, many expensive restaurants—lots of which were worth it—but rarely do I come out thinking the meal was a rip off. This meal was a rip off.

    A terrific dining experience with classy and distinctive ambiance, great service and fine cuisine. It's no bargain but value is fair given this is a special place. Terrific to take your guests from out of town, or in town for that matter. I am a fan.

    The venue needs updating. It needs more up to date interior design.
