An unexpected disappointment – I went here for my fathers birthday and it wasn't at all what i expected. Everything was great except for the food. The bar was well stocked and they can def make some good drinks. The food overall was rather bland. The best part was my 1st course, (mushroom and parm crumble) it was superb if a little rich. My second course was blah (i cant think of any other way to describe it) dessert was the same. The spring veggies had been overcooked so much that they had shrunk to a quarter their size and... read more
Best dining experience I've had – This place is everything it claims to be and more. I've been here a few times and have never had a less than perfect experience. The food is absolutely delicious, my favorite is the monkfish. The desserts are to die for so be sure to leave room! They have an exquisite wine list, however if you're unsure, the waiters are great in making recommendations. The service is impeccable, I took my mother once for her birthday and without any request at all from me our waiter brought a lovely dessert ... read more
Still Fantastic – My wife and I revisited the place where I asked her to marry me 15 years ago. You can sense the ambience as soon as you enter. The lighting, decor, fresh roses and music set the romantic mood that you look for in a restaurant but rarely find. The staff were very accomodative by moving us nearer to the courtyard windows on the first floor. The wine selection has recently been modified. Although they did not have the bottle I selected they quickly offered an upgrade blend at no additional charge. The waitstaf... read more
A wonderful 1st Anniversary Dinner – I have wanted to go to this restaurant for a while, and I decided I would make reservations for our first wedding anniversary. We loved the atmosphere! We had an awesome table on the first floor by a window looking into the courtyard, and were not bothered by other tables? conversations. We deiced to do the tasting menu along with the wine pairing. This was a great choice! The wine pours were very generous! What is so funny is that I HATE fois gras, but I ate it as part of our appetizers ... read more
Lived up to the hype – I went to this restaurant for the first time at the beginning of restaurant week. The portions were certainly scaled down in size, but they were excellent. The scallops were WAY too scaled down (you only got 2), but my hangar steak was a good portion. The citrus baba was fabulous, and the appetizers were very good. The waiter was excellent - the best service I've had in the city. They let us sit for 30 minutes and finish our bottle of wine between the main course and dessert - there was absolutely no r... read more
Really starting to shine – I recently tried this restaurant twice after reading Frank Bruni's review in the New York Times. I agree with him that while the ambience was always very romantic there seemed to be a none too exciting approach to the food. I went there twice. What a pleasant surprise! The decor, while still formal, is not as heavy as it was before. And I do like their booths located around the restaurant. I could not believe what I saw on the menu. I just never expected this (previously staid) restaurant to show s... read more
Great ambience, but awful food. – Last night I was beyond excited to get the chance to visit this raved about restaurant. To my dismay, the food was sub par. I took advantage of the restaurant week, prix fix menu. The pasta just didn't taste good, and the salmon as a main course was just a little too undercooked for my liking. Overall the food was bland. The chocolate souffle dessert was great, but I also feel like I would have gotten that anywhere. The idea behind the restaurant was great, very enchanting decor. I was extre... read more
Try it once! Very nice and romantic. – Very nice ambiance. Food ok. More of an experience. We went for our 2 year anniversary and were very satisfied. The desserts came decorated with candles and "happy anniversary" written on the plates: incredibly nice touch. I would recommend it to any couples seeking romance and ambiance. Candles, roses, dark lit, live piano playing etc. The only thing I disliked was that our hispanic waiter was slightly annoyed and not really soft or sophisticated. He was speaking spanish very loudly wi... read more
INFERIOR service & INADEQUATE food (This is a NO star restaurant) – I've lived in the city for years and have always heard what a fantastically romantic restaurant this was so I thought I'd finally check it out and take my boyfriend for his birthday. I didn't expect the food to be stellar, I was really more interested in going someplace where the atmosphere was cozy and romantic. It was disappointing from the moment we walked in the door which was like walking into a loud bustling train station. Nothing special or romantic a... read more
