    We love this restaurant. Our server was EXCELLENT. (Sadly, I cannot recall his name) I had the filet which was every bit as good as the restaurant across the street if not better. My dining mates had the duck , which was excellent. Normally we get the paella but decided to try other entrees. We shared the artichoke and French pizza. Which were also very tasty. Honestly, you can’t go wrong here.

    From your second, you walk in the door to the amazing dining experience in the extremely warm hospitality of the employees and owners, this place all around is excellent. Highly recommended and extremely under estimated. A true culinary experience with exceptional service.

    We have been to Hunter many times and it never disappoints. The the only truly gourmet restaurant on the Island in our opinion. It is upscale in every way but especially in the sourcing, using only the best of ingredients and purveyors. It is priced accordingly but we do not mind that when we are getting the value in terms of the dining experience and Hunter delivers well on that score. They serve a delicious thinly sliced ham as a treat with the tasty bread and butter. The signature French marguerita pizza is a very light appetizer that pairs well with cocktails for the group. The Duck a L'Orange is the best I have had anywhere and the veal chop parmigiana is another favorite. All of the fish dishes are prepared the right way -- retaining the moistness of the fish -- the cod is also a favorite. Desserts are similarly outstanding. The staff is very attentive -- respectful, well trained and experienced. Finally, the restaurant has great ambience - tables are well spaced and the design is very tranquil and relaxing. All in all, a great experience every time.

    Celebrated a birthday and dinner was terrific! Chicken parmigiana was delicious. Cannot say enough good things about it. Looking forward to having it again! As always, Francisco and Leo took good care of us!

    Dining at Hunter on Thanksgiving could have been chaotic, however it was anything but. We were seated on time, had perfect service from Francisco and staff, and food was outstanding. Leo managed the dining room very effectively making sure everyone was well taken care of. It was a delightful holiday experience. Thank you Hunter, once again for a terrific evening.
