Best Hot Spot Restaurants in New York

We had a reservation and were seated promptly upon arrival at a comfortable low table with a view of Lincoln Center right across the street. Service was attentive and cocktail orders arrived quickly. All 4 in the party said the cocktails were well made to asked for specifications, such as 'slightly dirty Hendrick's Martini.' Oysters Rockefeller were truly excellent and other snacks were good. Background music and noise level were moderate. Prices are $21 for standard cocktails with $3 extra for requested brands such as Ketel One. This is a good place to meet for cocktails and snacks before a performance.

The entire visit was wonderful. From the beautiful Christmas decorations to the staff this place is a gem! Definitely will be back on my next visit ! Do not sleep on this place!

Incredible service, massive and delicious portions & delightful ambience. The restaurant was bustling but it felt as if you you stepped back in time with the playlist and menu offerings. Absolutely recommend for anyone traveling with family or friends!

All around wonderful experience. We had a reservation at 8:00 but found our schedule changed a bit and we hoped to eat earlier. We stopped by the restaurant at 6:30 to see if they could seat us sooner, and they prepared a table for us right away. At the same time, I heard another guest ask the host how soon they could be seated without a reservation, and she was told the wait was 90 minutes! We felt like VIPs! The service, the food, and the ambience were all incredible. Our water glasses were never empty. Our food was delivered in the ideal time. Everything was delicious. We love the family-style menu that let all of us share and taste several entrees. The Caesar salad was one of the best I’ve had. We look forward to returning!

I have been coming to this restaurant for years now. And whilst obviously the staff change , the sense of the place never does. Wonderful food, excellent service and thank you for giving me my favourite table.
