Outstanding experience, we enjoyed the Wednesday night live jazz band.Our meal was delicious.The oysters were delicious, tuna tartar a must! the cauliflower soup went great with their house made fresh bread.main courses were amazing and presented wonderfully.The wine selection is very extensive.staff was very helpful from coat check to servers even management would come by to check on us and ask if everything was well.I will definitely return again or bring friends from out of town to enjoy this beautiful and great ny restaurant experience.loved how they any left over to go for you by coat check.
Review from a Feb 2023 visit.Massive variance between the price point and our experience for the evening.I've heard amazing things about this restaurant over the years but it would appear the changing of the guard after the pandemic has caused a noticeably dip in quality. The service was objectively great, very attentive to detail and friendly/informed, no issues with adjusting meals for the vegetarian in our group.The interior felt and looked cramped in certain areas as the evening got busier.And lastly for the first half of our visit there was staff and maintenance working on fixing the AC, we were very cold while waiting for our first dishes and greeted with occasional burning/dirty smells while they were working on a fix. The meal itself was good, nothing revelatory in terms of new flavors or ideas, just quality ingredients made well.For a few specific weak points - the truffle pasta special was just not worth anywhere close to the price, and the root veg on the roast special were under seasoned.Chocolate tart for dessert was excellent.
So we went there for restaurant week.The food quality wasn’t bad, but I am concerned with the customer service.(The lobster on the regular menu tasted awful: not worth $58 in my opinion.But the $7 bread was amazing) (1) the appetizer included in the $60 bundle meal was charged again in my final receipt, I caught it and asked them to change back.It happened to another friend of mine recently too in this restaurant.I wonder if it’s the restaurant’s plan or it’s some waiter’s/waitress’ intentional mistake.Very suspicious. (2) During the time when I was chatting with my friend over dinner, different waiters and waitress kept coming to check with us, making us feel we were over staying.🙂
