We had a wonderful time, celebrating and catching up with friends. It was festive and fun. Service was excellent. Food was delicious. Drinks were fantastic. It’s a special occasion place and you can’t beat the atmosphere and ambiance. Enjoyed views of Central Park carriage horses all throughout our time there.

I chose RH Guesthouse, Dining Room to celebrate what would have been my Mother’s 80th birthday. Unfortunately, she died in February. I wanted to spend it as she would have with good food and drinks. The service was impeccable. The menu is elegant and abbreviated, but the selections are more than sufficient. I will definitely return. It may possibly be my annual go-to to celebrate the fabulous woman who was my Mom!
