Annie AlfstadMarch 2, 2015Space is beautiful, windows looking into the park. Food is to be expected, a bit overpriced but you go more for the ambiance
Fernando CardenoSeptember 16, 2016Great service, beautiful place, lamb chops and lobster risotto were amazing
Andrew FurmanJune 26, 2015Grab a beer and sit in the shade while you enjoy the central park ambiance.
AmateurConciergeNovember 13, 2015This 8.3 rating is insanely high. The food here (for the price) is outright butt. Legendary venue, wine options solid but if you're paying this is NOT somewhere u want to eat

"Who knew?! Midtown has a cool spot! The Mac and cheese... Yum. We couldn't stop ordering it. The quinoa salad was very good also. For more carbs go for the flatbreads over the dip trio."
