Lafayette in New York never disappoints! I first visited with my girlfriends for my birthday, and this time, I went with my family—it was just as wonderful. The ambiance is warm and inviting, the service is excellent, and the food is absolutely delicious. Every dish is beautifully presented and full of flavor. Whether for a special occasion or a casual outing, Lafayette is always a great choice. Highly recommend!
