    Our group enjoyed a wonderful dining experience in one of New York's legendary steakhouses. Everything was prepared and timed perfectly throughout the evening and it was a pleasure to host our night out at this historic location. The service was top notch and the hand-crafted cocktails during the meal were delicious, cold and exceptional. A+ overall for our night out beginning with the Caesar salad, and spot on prepared bone in ribeye, Cajun and NY strip with amazing classic sides of onion rings, whipped potatoes and creamed spinach!! Two thumbs up and what every NY steakhouse should aspire to.

    Very nice experience. We asked the three courses option. Awesome. Too much food, but the quality deserves the effort... The service was very polite, kind and professional; specially from Rafael and Andres. Only noticeable mistake (if we have to find one, ha!) is that the Exit sign at the entrance is a bit loose and looks not horizontal

    Great experience, again! The rigatoni vodka is outstanding. Pasta is fresh (since it's made in-house). Great wine selection, as well. Looking forward to going back again.
