    Great location across street from Lincoln Center. We let our server know we needed to make a performance and received our food (which was delicious) very promptly.

    We had a fabulous meal . We got a nice corner table as I had requested and our server Joel was very personable and seemed unphased by how busy it was. I mentioned after our food arrived that I am gluten sensitive and he got me a lovely salad to replace the waffle cake. Our drinks were tasty and we enjoyed chatting with Nancy the manager who came by to check on us.

    The service was exceptionally cordial and efficient. But the tables are too close to each other and the noise level was deafening. 😞

    The positives are they sat us right at our reservation time despite it being super busy. The location is great for us as it is closeby. And I loved having both plain and bubbly water served at no charge. The negatives are the seating at the tables are just too close. We barely could get in and out of our tiny table without worry of knocking over a glass or plate. It was so noisy could barely hear each other and I think the cocktails are pretty small for the price.

    Our dishes -- the duck frites and the salmon were well prepared. The service was underwhelming though; I had to ask twice for our waiter so I could order a glass of wine. In the ned, someone else took my order. The ambience inside isn't great for a couple-- we would sit outside next time.
