I have been here for dinner a few weeks ago. Decided to go to brunch- when the main course came out- the steak was fine- the scrambled eggs were loose- I asked the waitress to take it back and cook it medium- the way I like scrambled eggs- she came back- and I was told the chef said” this is the way he makes scrambled eggs- he only serves it loose- eat it or don’t eat it- THE NERVE!! I emailed medium rare. Corporate- waiting for reply!!

Ottimo posto in cui mangiare bene e spendere il giusto per i canoni di NYC, il menù prezzo fisso a 34,95$ comprende del buonissimo pane casereccio con burro a parte da spalmare, un insalata mista, e poi un piatto di tagliata con patatine entrambe buonissime, che viene servita 2 volte. I dolci sono spaziali, grandezza oltre ogni immaginazione e anche buonissimi, noi abbiamo preso la torta al cioccolato a più strati, la più alta mai vista, e il sundae che non è altro che gelato con una montagna di panna sopra, buonissimi e 12$/cad per questi dolci è decisamente il prezzo giusto.
