They put us in the back room where there was no one else dining!!! Empty and depressing. We could have been put in the main room somehow even at the community high top. My short ribs were so dry you couldn’t put enough gravy on to make them moist. Have been there many times but this time very disappointing!!!!!

I appreciated that we were able to easily get a table, but the menu is hit or miss. My Cesar salad was very good. I love when a Caesar has a deep chill and it did! The French dip sandwich was good, not great. The pork chop and baked meatballs were not quality meat and possible frozen. My daughters ordered dessert and the chocolate Chip bread pudding was INCREDIBLE, so yummy…but the Ice Cream sundae went mostly untouched. It was a big sundae but was overwhelmed by whip cream and not Much else. Service was good, decor well done but it was not freezing outside and the restaurant heat was cranked up so high we were pretty uncomfortable and the staff was sweating.

The corned beef hash was AMAZING! The eggs were perfectly cooked, potatoes crispy outside and beautifully moist inside, and the corned beef was the best I ever had.

Definitely a neighborhood gem! Our first time here. Service was very professional. We had oysters (fresh & delicious), calamari (perfectly fried), short ribs, chicken soup, mushroom burger, French dip. Everything was delicious. Cocktails very well made & delicious. Key lime pie & vanilla ice cream—yummy. No espresso was available this evening. Would return & recommend!

The fried chicken was great! The soups were overpriced. The Tres Leche dessert was not good. Great location and a nice place.

This place is amazing! I went against the waiter’s suggestion and my chicken sandwich was not great. Everything else was good and the wait staff was fantastic. Not the best food in NYC but the atmosphere and service was top notch.
