    The food was excellent and so was the service. I will say the price range was much higher than the average shown at first glance through open table. Prepare to spend some money, but we’ll worth it.

    First attempt was a table next to kitchen with many more available. Nope. I asked for another and they gave me a fine table. Wish restaurants always gave out good tables on a first come first served basis, but especially when arriving at end of lunch hour (so not table is available no one else is coming). Shouldn’t have to ask.

    We love Aretsky’s Patroon! You are greeted by Gene, a member of the family who owns the restaurant. Always friendly and engaging, Gene seats you at your table and will check on you throughout the meal to make sure you are having a wonderful experience. The food is very good — and the menu has something for everyone. The service is terrific. Our primary service person, David, was funny, knowledgeable about the menu, and very attentive to allergy and food requests. A real gem. Go enjoy a meal there — it will be a real treat.

    The service was excellent. The restaurant has a classic NY feel that is authentic and polished without being overdone or unnecessarily fancy. The food is classic. The food gras appetizer was delicious. The duck was beautifully prepared. So was the Black Sea bass.
