We saw Saint + Council and considered trying it for our date night. We were extremely please with the food, prices were reasonable for a date night location, and the service was great. Only downfall was a table by us was EXTREMELY loud, but that’s isn’t the restaurants fault.

We had an amazing time! The decor, the view, the elegance, the service was all spectacular! When you arrive to the elevator up , you are warnly greated by a hostess. Once you arrive upstairs, you are once again greated by a warm friendly smile. Once seated the people that serve are all warm and friendly. They made our visit truly unforgettable. We were dining with 2 children 6, 12. They made us all feel like we were family. The highlight of the visit was the waitress. I cannot remember her name, she had curly hair and siad she worked there for 41 years. What an amazing asset to this restaurant. She was entertaining, friendly, funny and really good at what she does! We will return just to see her! The food was PHENOMENAL. We ordered the filet mignion which was delicious. My wife ordered the Keto dish and left the plate empty. The kids ordered pizza, and us being native New Yorkers were amazed how good it tasted! We will be returning for sure. Yes the price was rather high but worth every penny!
