    Great food, excellent service, and pleasant atmosphere. A little pricy by NYC standards, but worth it

    The cuisine, atmosphere, view of NYC and service were tops once again. We were fortunate to be treated with lovely piano and vocals. And the food and wine list are also perfect. Every time we go away most pleased with the experience of dining at Roberts!

    Dietary restrictions communicated to restaurant and repeated to waiter and he said there were no substitution allowed by the kitchen. We have eaten here before but would not return.

    Robert is one of my favorites. The staff is lovely, but there are not enough of them, and so it can be hard to place an order, get more water, order another drink, or get the bill. That is the only thing that is less than wonderful.

    The view of Central Park was amazing. The food was pretty good as well. The decor just seems sort of dated. It reminded me of a typical cafeteria one might find in Las Vegas.

    I wish there was an option of more than 5 stars, as the restaurant delivered above our highest expectations. And…the piano player provided wonderful background music. Prices were, in today’s NYC world, quite reasonable.

    On a friend’s recommendation, we went for appetizers and wine with a beautiful view of Central Park. Enjoyed crab cake with Thai slaw and avocado lettuce wraps.
