    It was my foret trip to Trump Hotels and first one for Terrace 16. I was celebrating my anniversary. The ambience was very soulful and quite for a couple. The server was very courteous and took care of our dietary requirements. At the last there was a small celebratory customised desert served. I absolutely enjoyed the ambiance and 5 star experience.

    Amazing food! We had reservations for 4 and arrived a couple minutes early. We were seated within 5 minutes. Our server was very attentive. We ordered COCCOLI as an antipasti per server recommendation. It did not disappoint us. Very light airy crispy dough with perfect combination of prosciutto, stracchino cheese and truffle honey. I had the Gnocchi as entree and was beyond pleased with my choice. My husband had the Spaghetti which had tons of lump crab and perfect sauce to pair with it. Our daughter had the Brick Chicken and was pleased with flavor and was a generous portion. And our friend had the fresh made Rigatoni which was paired wonderfully with a vodka sauce. As a dessert we split a bread pudding (our family has to try the bread pudding g whenever on a menu). We all agreed that is in the top 2 of our favorite bread puddings. I had the Super Tuscan wine (very smooth and delightful) and an espresso martini which was a bit sweeter than I prefer but still delicious nonetheless. My husband had the No. 3 Martini which he loved (very Olivey for me though, but I don’t like olives ha!). Will definitely be back here next time in town!
