    If you want to impress, take your date or business colleague here! I've been three times now and the food is consistently outstanding across the whole menu. I am from Boston, so my standards for a seafood restaurant are high. Many places in NYC don't make the cut, but Sea Fire clears the bar easily. I recently had lunch there for the first time and the prix fix deal was worth a special trip. A good value by Manhattan standards, and all five dishes my party had were great. I tried the steak for the first time and was surprised to find that it was as good as any I've had at the nearby famous steak houses. The grilled calamari appetizer was A+, as well. At this price point (normal for NYC, expensive for everyone else) I don't know where you can do any better. A no-brainer pick for business lunches or social dinners.

    Food was good but the lobster stuffed crab was overpriced. It says MP but came out to be $154 for a 2lb lobster. The crab was basically crab cake which cost $29, so that makes the lobster $125. I think it’s overpriced. Also, the bill was split in half. One has all the tips and the other without tips. The restaurant charged full tips for on both cards. It’s either they overlook or they just want a 36% tips. I am disputing the double tips.

    Had lunch today at the Sea Fire Grill with several friends. Quite a lovely place with excellent service! I ordered salad, Branzino and tiramisu. My lunch mates also had salad, but they got salmon and cheese cake. In general, the food was quite good, except my fish had some bones.
