                                                      We truly enjoyed our dinner at Butter. My aunt had desired to eat here, due to her love of the chef. We arrived and were quickly seated for our reservation. We tried everything from the mac n cheese gnocchi, the rolls (the butter of course, delicious), the pork chops, and the short ribs. The cocktails were delicious and service was exceptional. It was then a short walk over to see the Rockettes to continue our fun evening out.

                                                      The food and service were great. The tables were tall and not comfortable to sit at. There were also a lot of missing finishing touches for the expense.

                                                      Have family in from Ireland and so we made a reservation for 5:45 for 5 people with various tastes in food. We had the most delightful patient waitress great disposition, happy to be there !!! That says a lot right there. The girls had a special cocktail that they just loved, we had a few questions about the menu and our waitress was confident in her answers ! Also a huge plus. We had just excellent service, delicious food a warm comfortable atmosphere and it restored our faith in good service ! A time when people were happy to be at work and confident in the food they were delivering ! I think that all shows a great Team effort ! Their was a younger hostess that seemed to miss the memo, but we didn’t let her energy bring us down

                                                      The food was just exquisite- completely on par with everything I’ve ever seen Alex Guarnaschelli on the Food Network. The concept, the taste of each dish- absolutely amazing.

                                                      Don’t even bother making a reservation. You won’t be seated until 30-45 minutes after your reservation time, and the hosts will be rude about it, which is super fun. Drinks are amazing 10/10.
