The chicken mousse and mushroom dumplings were simply delicious. The hanger steak was okay. One glass of chardonnay was close to $20. While we had a bright window seat, the noise level, like most NYC restaurants, was close to unbearable. I will probably get take-out and enjoy the mousse and dumplings in the peace and quiet of my apartment. Our waitress and other staff were excellent.

A bit too noisy to relax over dinner last night. It could be because it was a Jewish holiday.

Food and service were very good! Huge portions with a great, varied menu. Music was very loud, especially for Sunday brunch. But would definitely go back.

Wonderful food and service. The mushroom dumplings with pine nuts and yogurt were exceptional - everything, really, was excellent. Prices are a bit high, but the food is so good, I didn't mind.
