For special occasions only – Went there for a birthday and it was glorious despite the $120/person tab. We had the table for the entire evening, the service was excellent and the food unsurpassed by anything I've had in awhile. Obviously, at this price it is not a regular dining experience for most people. But was it worth the price. I thought so.

TERRIBLE birthday experience...NEVER again! – After hearing wonderful things, I decided to have my birthday dinner here. First, the place was SWELTERING - my boyfriend was SWEATING. We get our menus and order drinks. The waitress comes back and takes our order. 3 minutes and we get appetizers. We then get drinks when we are almost done. After apps, 5 minutes and there's our entrees! My salmon was RAW. My boyfriend's pork was the saltiest thing. We barely touched our food - the waitress came over to ask what was wrong, and we... read more

don't worth it – Tables are too close together, nothing romantic about, and the food is below average. I just don't know why this is the #1 romantic place to dine.

Very romantic place, but bland food. – One if by Land, Two by Sea is not all that it is cracked up to be. Yes, I agree that is a very romantic ambiance with the piano player by the window, the fireplaces, and candlelit dinners. However, the food is very bland & I was extremely dissapointed. I have been to the restaurant before & was not overly impressed with the food. But, the romantic old-world ambiance brought me back.

Excellent choice! – Perfect place to dine when celebrating special occasions. It's not cheap, but you definitely get what you pay for. Great ambience, not too dark, not too bright, good music and good service. Their lamb chops and the beef wellington were excellent, and for dessert - chocolate fondant and the goat cheese mascarpone to die for. Overall, we enjoyed the place and would highly recommend it.

GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!!! – My husband and I went there last night to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. We had 7 oclock reservation and we were seated promptly. We ordered from the Restaurant Week menu. We both had the crab-scallop cake for the appetizer which was incredible, then for our entree, I had chicken and he had the salmon. Then dessert. We sat there for a long time wondering where our dessert was. He had ordered the Chocolate fondant cake and I ordered the Creme Brulee. They finally brought it out with candles on our plat... read more

see for yourself – After reading the few complaints it seemed that the writers of those complaints must have been in a different establishment than the one I know. The food, ambiance and service are all top notch. The prices were comparable to other NYC restaurants and the portions were more than adequate. I guess the disgruntled writers either wanted fast food prices for lobster or just were upset because their dates didnt end up back at their aparttments like they hoped they would.

TERRIBLE – This was one of the worst dinners that my fiance and I have had in Manhattan in years. The food was flavorless and tasted and looked more like a TV dinner than top rated cuisine. We were seated upstairs and could barely hear each other due to the noise level. Bread was disappointing and wine is very over priced. Don't waste your time or money.
