Absolutely one of our favorite restaurants and for good reason! Usually come here for dinner or cocktails, but brought a group of women for midday lunch. It was absolutely phenomenal. The service is impeccable the food delicious, quality, variety, all dietary needs, and preferences taken into account and the view to die for. What more can I say?!

It was pretty empty when we went. The views are beautiful however, the service was not great and the food was mediocre. Our server forgot my soda and 1 whiskey it took 25 minutes (again the restaurant was NOT busy) the food was not terrible BUT there are WAY better places to eat in NYC especially for the bill!

Robert, The service was White Glove perfection. Attentive, Helpful, Kind. The Robert staff seated us by a coveted Window. The timing was impeccable. New York City is magical at Christmas. The staff at Robert, from reception through to leaving down the elevator provided a 5 Star positively memorable evening. The view stunning. Recommendations for drinks, diner, dessert and after dinner libations were given with confidence and ease. The servers anticipated our needs inclusive of a photo shoot of our Robert experience. Thank you.
