Only because everywhere else was booked – I thought this restaurant wasn't all that its racked up to be. My Boyfriend and I weren't impressed at all, the food had absolutely no seasoning. Why pay someone to do something you can do yourself? How hard is it to take a lobster are boil it in hot water till it turns red. I'll pass on a second visit to this restaurant.

Great location and service. – All aspects of this restuarant are good at this price. If I have to be picky, the waiter forgot to bring our bread; the seafood pasta's lobster was overcooked while the paste was undercooked. The ahi tuna starter PAR EXCELLENCE! Ditto the fried calamari. I personally enjoy the fliet migon a great deal (not overcooked like most other steak places). Not necessary a great value for the quality of the food, but the great service and superb location warrant your serious consideration.

WOW for lunch – What an amazing experience!!!!!! I went there on a buisness lunch, greeted at the door by two charming professionals. One gentleman and one lady, not sure of there titles but none the less they both entertained us and took care of us. The food was better then average the kitchen was very fast and there was a wine director working the room talking to every table which was amazing for a restaurant like this. I will be back. Make sure to try the crabcakes.

Superior Food, Convenient to Broadway – We found the food to be superior. I had the crabcakes and my wife the cippino. She said the piece of lobster was slightly overcooked but otherwise the dish was very good. The crabcakes were nearly 100% crab with just the right amount of seasoning. Service was prompt and attentive without being overbearing.

Seafood specials for the whole family at a convenient midtown location. – In Short Located between Times Square and Rockefeller Center, this family-friendly seafood restaurant, which seats 165, is a convenient place to go for an express lunch or pre-theater dinner. Menu highlights include stone crabs, yellowfin tuna steak, jumbo lump crab cakes, steak and burgers and Key lime pie for dessert.

Food – The food is just ok and the cost is too expensive for the price. The wait-staff and management are excellent but they need a new chef! The chicken was shoestringed, I wouldn't recommend that. The cobbler, a bit dry. I would say they need some new chefs in the kitchen if they want people to get their money's worth.

Delicious – We went with a group of friends from work after finding it on Citysearch. I had lobster, others had crab, shrimp, etc. Everyone was quite happy with the food. The service was very prompt. We'll be back.

Great Spot – I came hear during lunch and it was very tasty. The wine was good and the seafood was very fresh! The interior/ambience was perfect and much better than the other places in the neighborhood.
