Sarah SMay 1, 2014Very corporate/baby boomer crowd. Kitchen is really accommodating-they prepared an entire off-the-menu platter of grilled veggies. Have (at least) a bite of their chocolate lava cake. Amazing florals
- Sarah SMay 1, 2014Re: ambiance: it's the kind of place you take your parents or your GF's parents. Not your actual GF, or friends. Good place to make/break a deal. (I may or may not have seen a business dinner go awry)
Rachel KarnofskyJuly 18, 2013For special occasions or big groups, reserve a private room which includes making dessert in an open kitchen. As for dinner, black ink seafood pasta and pollo fra diavlo... Holy food coma. Incredible.
CompassMay 16, 2014Understated décor and raw brick walls are the perfect pairing for over-the-top, upscale italian dishes like white truffle pasta, steak with polenta, and flour less chocolate soufflé.
Sarah SmithsonJuly 20, 2017I wish this place wasn't on Foursquare so People won't know about this gem 💎 Best Pasta I've ever had and the gnocchi is out of this world! Lamb Shank was subpar.
Fantastic dining experience and do not miss the post-meal treats from the French pastry chef. Make sure to order the chocolate lava cake early, as good things take time.
Edlin ChoiSeptember 20, 2012Tuna tartare, mozzarella special & shrimp all great. Hard to not fill up on apps alone. Double veal chop wrapped in wild boar bacon. Read that again. AND super friendly… (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Abby ZellerAugust 27, 2014Was here for a special group dinner - very nice space and the food was excellent! Dessert was by far the best thing on the menu though!
If you want a lighter preparation, order off the grilled section, the veal chop and rack of lamb were lovely
AmateurConciergeNovember 12, 2014Was here for a private event. Excellent wait staff and arguably best shrimp cocktail I ever ate
Aeolian-Skinner Princess PastoreFebruary 10, 2016Everything is great here!! Just bring a wide wallet.
Michael GilbertOctober 9, 2013Exactly, the truffle pasta was one of the best pastas of my life. Of my life!
Gradie OakesFebruary 17, 2012Be like Jeremy and take your dad to dinner here. REALLY be like Jeremy and order the Dover sole.
Sam KalaminskyNovember 24, 2013Food was okay, service was frantic, so so ambiance. Great place to go if you're a showy loser from Jersey that likes to impress your smoker girlfriend in animal print with an overpriced bottle of wine
Jason HarrisSeptember 28, 2011Get the Truffles if they have them fresh. Ask to sit in Wine cellar if you are on a date or you want to.
Mauricio QuinzeJanuary 21, 2012Excellent! The manager is a outstanding person. The black angus steak is great
Kenneth SchwartzFebruary 17, 2017Terrible service Dry veal chop. Great Chopin martini great napoleons dessert was there valentines evening waiter used to be the manager he said and was the worse service. So expensive
Dave A.February 2, 2012Expressit Photobooth book us for your next event.
- Luis GerardApril 23, 2011It is not a Zagat 25 food by any stretch of the imagination over rated food very nice place
Dave WhelanSeptember 17, 2011My wife @lnj11 didn't hate it, but I have to rank this as my worst meal ever in NYC. Bad food, slow service, pushy servers. Avoid at all costs!

Fine, delectable Italian cuisine is complemented by an impressive wine collection from around the world. A grand spiral staircase leads up to a private cocktail area that is centrally positioned outside 5 private rooms.
