    We have been Smith & Wollensky 4 times. Food and service there are always great! But, this time the lady, who is serving at Cloakroom was terrible, always Poker face and mean and rude to us.

    We had high expectations for Smith & Wollensky, having been recommended it for a special occasion by friends who’d had a fabulous anniversary dinner there. They were treated like royalty, given a complimentary dessert and made a total fuss off so we arrived with this expectation. Sadly, we didn’t have the same experience. The positives - the food was delicious, perfectly cooked, large portions and arrived quickly. The negatives - The lighting is so low that it is hard to see anything and everyone around the table from 12 to 46 commented on this. The service is what really let this place down. It felt like a conveyor belt, get them in, get them out. There was no interaction or personalisation from server. Watching the other servers around us welcome their guests, explain the menu, ask about their day, occasion, wish them well shows we were unlucky but overall I left feeling very disappointed given this was our one big birthday treat for our trip to NYC. Fortunately I know steak cuts etc but it would have been nice to have had this guidance from the server. We had noted birthday on the booking, I was given cards and presents at the table, it was more than obvious but still nothing from our server. In the end, my daughter went and asked the hostess if they could put a candle in the dessert when another server stepped in and stepped up - it was appreciated but overall we were disappointed by the atmosphere, service and wouldn’t recommend this restaurant, especially not for a special occasion.

    Our waiter and his assistant were excellent. Great food, great atmosphere. The Blue Point oysters were killer, my prime rib superb. It's not Outback prices, but definitely worth it. This was my second time, can't wait for the next.
