    Food is great as always. As I was leaving the restaurant I was grabbed by our waiter and he asked “Sir was something wrong with the service” I said no. He proceeded to tell me that “ the suggested tip is $57 then”. I had a left a $30 tip. It’s beyond me that a waiter would feel comfortable to grab my arm to ask for a higher tip. I’ve never experienced this level of entitlement from a restaurant worker.

    Decent steakhouse with nice vibe but nothing special. Server seemed inexperienced and was not attentive.

    I love that you guys had a Barolo by the glass. Please keep it on the menu. Please keep doing the restaurant week $60 special. Perhaps the best steak deal in NY and I’ve been going for years to get this deal specifically. A good marketing tactic as you’ve earned my retention. Keep it up.

    Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Portions were generous and cooked to perfection. We had the lobster bisque and grilled calamari for appetizers and the rib eye and filet mignon with mashed potatoes and roasted brussel sprouts for our entrees. We could hardly eat the dessert that came with the restaurant week menu but we did our best. The cheese cake was divine. Highly recommend for an overall enjoyable dining experience.

    Very noisy. The desserts were not great northern sides. Salad was good but small portion. The steak was very good.
