    Delightful from the minute we walked in. Gave us a lovely table in the corner for our anniversary. Dori, our waiter was charming. Environment was beautiful. Food was excellent especially bronzino and sea bass. Dessert was sublime. We loved the experience and will definitely return.

    Went for restaurant week, Sunday dinner. The restaurant is beautiful but the food was nothing special. The octopus starter was very good but I would say everything else was only okay. The service was friendly and attentive in some ways but also kind of sloppy at times—they tried seating us at a table for 10 because they got my reservation mixed up with another (even though I gave them my very unique last name when checking in), the servers never brought us an item we ordered, they asked if we wanted more bread but then never brought it, etc. We also all thought the music was totally the wrong vibe, kind of clubby which felt really at odds with the ambiance. Don’t think I would go back when there are so many much better restaurants in New York.

    Fabulous, gorgeous restaurant! Would be a stand-out in any neighborhood, but particularly in this neck of the woods where everything feels like a cafeteria. It’s incredibly beautiful, sparkling-clean, with perfect and attentive, polite service and delicious food

    Absolutely stunning interior! The food was great and the staff were outstanding! We went for lunch at 3:00 and had the price fixe menu. Salmon and Octopus were great! The staff are very friendly and attentive. We sat at our table for 3 hours taking in the ambiance of the restaurant and the staff were so accommodating. We ended up moving to the bar and had wine. The bartender let us taste every wine by the glass before deciding what we wanted. A definite must try!

    We came here for the restaurant week, and we both agreed that the quality of food exceeded our expectation and the pricing was reasonable. The portion was bigger that what we expected, but it tasted great. Definitely recommend to try their menu for restaurant week!!

    Over priced and felt like a tourist trap. Wasn’t worth spending so much money at Gaia. NYC has so many great restaurants and this isn’t one of them.
