Everything we ordered was delicious. The Cesar salad was not a typical Cesar but was a welcome change and we would order it again. The bison bone marrow was amazing, and the jam that accompanied it was so good we wanted to take a jar home. We also enjoyed the special that consisted of a filet mignon, a petite lamb steak and grilled shrimp. We’re looking forward to enjoying another meal at Aceq soon.

This place is a must go to place. Everything was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. It’s a small place that’s reminiscent of places I’ve been to in SoHo. We didn’t have room for dessert so we took it to go. The key lime pie and peanut butter cheesecake the day after was perfection.

This is a fantastic little restaurant. The food was fantastic and they had great cocktails. I have food allergies and they were very accommodating, plus the menu is well marked. Our server was great and the atmosphere was very nice. Heading there again soon!

The food and drinks were very, very good, but everything else was shockingly bad: It was very hard to find a place to park. Every time the door opened we were hit with a blast of cold air. It was very loud in the dining room. The service was horrible. We spent more time waiting than ordering/eating. Our server walked right past us many times while we were clearly waiting for her. Our table had no silverware/napkins when we were seated. When our salads were brought out we still didn't. We had to ask for silverware. The server we asked didn't hear us at first because he had earbuds in. Our silverware was taken with the salad dishes and not replaced. We had to ask for silverware again after our entrees were brought out. We saw servers drop things on the floor and then just leave them there. It was actually comically bad.
