We had a wonderful dinner at Bond 45 last night. We celebrated 2 birthdays and had such a great time. Our waiter, Trevor, was excellent! He was friendly, entertaining, attentive and professional. The drinks were excellent and the meals were exceptional. The lasagna and chicken parmesan were delicious! The restaurant was decorated gorgeously for the holidays. Definitely will go again and thanks Trevor for making our birthdays fun and special!

The food was very good. Delicious PEI Pink moon oysters and other great selections. Hamachi crudo was great and I love the idea of local fresh ingredients. I’m glad we came- the halibut was a little too hard on the outside for me but the inside was nicely cooked. Brussels and potato purée were simply delicious. The brûlée cheesecake and cappuccino to finish helped power the 20 block walk home! It’s up there with the best of the restaurants I’ve been to. Prices were a little high but that’s what you expect in NYC.

First of all, the food, as always, was of the highest quality - everything from the oysters and scallops to the steaks and creamed spinach were perfectly delicious, but mostly we can't say enough about how absolutely fabulous the team of folks graciously serving us were - especially on Christmas Eve charming the six of us (including our two young grandsons, aged 5 and 10). A new family tradition! We offer particular and special thanks to Elise, Jessie, Kelly, and Chef Carla for helping make it such a memorable evening in Lulu of Plum Run!
