About this business

One if by Land, Two if by Sea embodies romance, featuring piano music, flowers, fireplaces, balcony seating and dim lighting. It is a favorite spot for marriage proposals and special occasions. The signature dish is Beef Wellington wherein the filet mignon is wrapped in sumptuous pastry dough. The desserts and the extensive wine list are also worth inspecting.

Romance for a few – The problem with this restaurant is that there are only about 6 "romantic" tables. Every other 2 person table is right next to another table. I was closer to the guy next to me than to my wife across the table. If you are from out of town insist on a window seat. We were seated well beyond our reservation time, and ignored for 15 minutes after we sat. The food was okay.

Great Night Out – I took my fiancee to the restaurant, the food and service were outstanding.....The meal ended up costing about $400, but I would say it was well worthwhile

save your money – too expensive for little food, snotty service. i made reservations for my anniversary and was seating near a kitchen half an hour late. bus boys spoke no english and created a scene when we did not want to mix dairy and meat. bill was humongous, we were still hungry and went to figaros instead and had a great tiramisu

Romantic, Elegant Location! – This gorgeous fully restored historic brownstone is one of our favorite places to celebrate a quiet romantic evening. Their signature Beef Wellington is fantastic, the ambience is unparalleled, and the roaring fire can't be beat!

Cliched and Cheesy – The food is rich but not outstanding. The menu is somewhat dated. The winelist is outrageously expensive. And if you aren't getting engaged here you are out of place. OIBLTIBS is basing its success on its longstanding reputation as a romantic restaurant. Its day has come and gone. It is cliched now.

The Perfect Evening – I brought my boyfriend there for dinner for his birthday. We got a beautiful table in a quiet room with fireplaces. Our dinner was delicious. We had tasting menus (I think there were about 8 courses) and they paired wine with every course. At the end of the meal they brought the dessert out & my boyfriend's plate was decorated for his birthday. I had just casually mentioned that to the reservationist and I guess she noted it and the staff followed through. Great service. Beautiful ambience. I would defi... read more

This Is The Way Food Ought To Be ! – My Wife & I had the most pleasureable eating experience while dining at One If by Land Two If by Sea. From the very moment you enter through the Oak Door a new experience awaits you as you hear the lovely music of the piano playing soft melodies and are greeted by the Maitre d' . As he asked us our preference as to which table would we perfer we choose one near the window facing the fireplace. Our waiter Michael was very attentive to our needs throughout the evening and his recommendation... read more

Love is in the air – Tasting menu with wines is the best. Very intimate setting. We got engaged right after dinner.

Abstolutely Awful – This might be the worst restaurant experience I had in the three years I lived in New York. We were seated upstairs, which has significatly less ambience than downstairs, under a wildly blowing air conditioner, with a massive oversized fake floral arrangement poking us in the heads. The waiter was nervous and barely competent. The food was obscenely overpriced even for NYC (though some of it was tasty). The outer bourough couple next to us left their table between each cours for smoke breaks and the heavi... read more
