    A friend recommended this restaurant. My mom lives close to this restaurant and we never knew about it, so we tried it. We enjoyed it. Everything was delicious. Looking forward to going back.

    This place has been on my radar for a long time, the only thing I can say negative is how stupid I was to put it off. From the moment we walked in we were treated amazing. The waiter mike was attentive and accommodating. A well designed seasonal menu in an ambiance that really made me feel like at home set the tone for the night. The drinks are beautiful and delicious, I would have had them all if possible. Since we waited so long to come here we really wanted to get a feel for as much of the food as possible. The crab cake appetizer was unique and so good it would have been my favorite had I not ordered the steak tartar which really is something special. The level of care and combination of fresh ingredients set the bar so high that it almost wasn't fair to the entrees. My pork chop over potatoes with figs and swiss chard was presented beautifully and cooked to perfection, the dish was extremely well balanced. My wife had the scallops over sunchoke puree with cauliflower componata which was also beautiful and extremely delicious. We split their dessert which was a trifle of cheesecake and pumpkin cake that really made the ending of our dining perfect. The chef came out and checked on our experience which really tied it all together. This place is a must go, perfect for a date or in our case an anniversary. We'll worth the trip and it was so reasonably priced for the level of food you receive its a can't miss.

    Super disappointing experience. I unfortunately was running late due to work. When I called to cancel my reservation, they were very nice and understanding, but I was charged with a $60 cancelation fee that I was not made aware of and wasn’t informed about when I called to cancel. When I called back 2 minutes later to ask if we could come a tad bit later, they said a manager would have to call me back. Once the manager called me back 10 minutes later, he was extremely rude, told us they had closed the kitchen and that we were out of luck with getting the cancelation fee waived because it was an “OpenTable problem.” The restaurant is advertised to be open until 10pm and we had an 8:00pm reservation, called back at 8:02pm and the manager called me back at 8:12pm. It was just a series of unfortunate events and made absolutely no sense. Again, it was super disappointing since we were very excited to try this restaurant. We will not be going to try it out in the future because if the customer service reflects the restaurant in general, I want no part of it.

    Felt like we had the place to our selves. Servings were huge. The wine was spot on. The meals were amazing. They do great job here and worth every cent. The creative dishes with the seasonal ingredients make this a must eat spot on Long Island...AT LEAST 4 times a year!

    Staff went out of their way above and beyond for our group of 4. The food was definitely great and we all had a great time. Definitely will return.

    What I call a "one and done". Tried it. Should have gone elsewhere, but felt like something new. Renews were pretty good, which is downright shocking (or paid for), so I didn't find this a risky move. Sadly I was wrong. Food was forgettable and way overpriced. My son's steak board special was large but a bad piece with fat and tendons throughout. I am sure that the chef owner loves cooking and may have been exposed to great kitchens and restaurants, but he has no clue how to run a restaurant. The front of the house is nothing short of weird. It's what you get when no one is truly running the place and waiters are expected to make it up as they go along. The organization is inexistant. As a foodie who has had the opportunity to eat at all sorts of restaurants all over the world, a trait I am grateful for, I cannot in my right mind recommend this place to anyone. Sorry.
