Food was very good but for a hotel the service was lacking. Waited over 15 mins for our drinks and additional 30 mins for our food. They brought the wrong drink and even charged it wrong on the bill. In general, not the level of professionalism we expected from a restaurant in such a nice hotel. Also we noticed that people were constantly moving tables because they were seated directly under the AC and others put on jackets. Maybe if nearly all guests are cold it would be a good call to turn the AC down.

We had a group of 7, and were there for a birthday celebration. The staff were so attentive, kind and accommodating to us. A perfect place to celebrate. They even threw in a complimentary birthday drink for the celebrant! The ambiance is beautiful. The drinks were absolutely divine and the food was amazing. Our group shared the starter bread, gnocchi and the endive and melon salad. We practically inhaled it. For main: I had the Long Island duck which was cooked to perfection. Others ordered the octopus, scallops, hangar steak and lamb which were all done exquisitely. I would return!

Our second time dining here and it was a very nice evening. Food was interesting and delivered quickly, the tomato salad & the steak were the standouts. The restaurant is a pretty space with a lively bustle, dining early might be preferable for noise. This restaurant is a solid addition to that area of NY.
