The Highlawn is nothing short of spectacular! From the moment you step into the elegant setting, you’re greeted with breathtaking views of the New York City skyline and an ambiance that radiates sophistication. The menu is thoughtfully curated, offering a perfect balance of seasonal flavors and timeless classics. I highly recommend the filet mignon, which was cooked to absolute perfection, and the lobster bisque, which was rich and flavorful. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The service was impeccable—attentive, professional, and warm. Our server ensured every detail of our dining experience was flawless, enhancing the evening. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in an upscale dinner, The Highlawn is the perfect destination. It’s an unforgettable culinary experience that truly elevates dining. I can’t wait to return!
