    I have been here several times and the food, service, atmosphere and overall experience is consistently awesome. The prices are actually reasonable for NYC which makes it even better. I will continue to come back during the week and on the weekends when there is a nice party vibe later in the night.

    Unfortunately I think the restaurant was understaffed to manage the volume of people. Noted that this visit to this restaurant was marathon weekend. We were 15 minutes early, and even though our table was ready we were not allowed to be seated. The hosted was beyond rude and could have better explained the situation. Once seated we had various servers and helpers take our order and deliver the food. The food was ok & the overall experience was not great.

    It was a birthday dinner, which was expressed in the reservation. Not only did they seem to have so many rules when each person came in and even though the entire restaurant was empty, they still forced people to stand in a corner. I get that they have a seating policy, but it seemed very strange. The waiter did not bother to even ask about dessert, which would have been nice since again, it was a birthday event. The restaurant just really made us feel like they were doing us a favor by letting us eat there. On top of that, they couldn't find the balloons my friend had brought, that they made her give them to put somewhere, so we waited an extra 15 minutes, just so someone could find them. The food was good, however, I don't think I'll plan on hosting an event there again. Just really felt very discourteous overall.

    Good vibes inside. Pasta was a little salty. Meatballs are great. Mimosas are pre mixed so if you go for brunch you’re better off buying a bottle of champagne.
