    So the food was amazing. The shirt rib lasagna was simply amazing. So good. The kids spaghetti and meatball was kind of bland, but that could be because it was a kids meal, but, other than that, it was fine. The new menus that look like encyclopedia were kind of bulky but different. I think that they should rethink the Encyclopedia menu type thing. The ambience was just amazing as well. You would never know that it was the old streets of New York restaurant when you walk in. Our server wasn’t the greatest unfortunately, forgot a few things never got bread to the table, took a little while to get and after dinner coffee, we had to remind him a couple times, but he was very friendly. The management staff was very nice. The passing out of Champagne while you’re waiting for your table was kind of nice different that was complementary. Overall, it was a great experience.

    Four of us went to dinner and had a great time. The service is on spot. The food was excellent. I saw some negative reviews about checking in and on timetable. We did not have that experience. The bar was a great place to start. Tony was pleasant and the overall evening was excellent. I highly recommend.

    Very nice lunch. Food had great flavor, would’ve liked the food to be hot. Suggest they add water bottles to the tables as had to flag server to refill water glasses. Overall enjoyed the experience. Will be going back.

    Food was excellent, atmosphere was elegant but inviting. Very beautifully designed. Service at lunch was slow and our server forgot to bring drinks and refills a few times. We had to flag him down a couple of times to get things we needed. Aside from that, we’d recommend!

    I think there is potential here but we weren’t impressed overall. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Our server was nice but didn’t come around nearly enough. the decor is cheesy and not upscale. sent back my pasta bolognese. dry meatballs and just wasn’t good. lobster risotto was good. Eggplant gnocchi was not great. Lasagna was good. Cocktails were very good though.
