    The food was delicious. We had the omelet, and they made it to our liking. Not disappointed. I give an A++. The waiter was very accommodating to our request, and even took the time to take a photo of us at the table. I gave him a great tip. I also give him an A++. I am a regular customer, and eaten at the restaurant several times. I love their chocolate martini! Totally recommend! That drink gets an A+++++! Leaves me smiling and happy!

    This is probably one of the best steak houses in NYC! My husband and I came here to celebrate our birthday and the servers were very attentive to take care of us. The ambience is cozy and inviting and the food is divine. I will definitely be coming back!

    The food was incredible . Umami for sure. The staff was also amazing. The woman who seated and served us was extremely helpful and attentive to everyone in the restaurant at once. She ran that room like a pro to say the least. It was New Year's day as well the place was packed on a holiday and the staff was taking care of a full restaurant and take-out orders that seemed non stop for the 90 minutes we were there. They earned and deserved the Michelin star. And I loved the sketches of the restaurant that were hung throughout the restaurant among the many old photos . Will definitely be back soon.
