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.

Nice Ambience......very romantic – "Nice" Sums up my dining experience at One if by land. Everyting about the place leads to a special evening. The food, the service,the most romantic restuarant I have ever seen. It seems like the quintessential romantic experience. I recommend it highly to all who want to experience what New York is all about.
Romantic and Good Food – I took my sister here to celebrate her birthday and I felt a little out of place as the restaurant ambience was very romantic. I think the seating on the 1st or 2nd floor is equally nice and there was a live piano player. We ordered food from the restaurant week menu and the risotto was amazing. The bread was not too good but the pork was also delicious. My fish was excellent and the desserts were okay. The crumble was disappointing.
Romantic, Soothing Ambiance, Impeccable Service – Went for my birthday and it was the perfect place to celebrate! The waitstaff was very attentive, the atmosphere and piano music very romantic, and we weren't rushed. We chose from the limited Restaurant Week Menu, and nothing was new or innovative. However, each course was served promptly, displayed beautifully, and prepared wonderfully. Cocktails were $15 each, but my chocolate martini was served in an oversized martini glass. We were even given two $20 off discount cards t... read more
Romantic Dining – I brought my girlfriend here for her birthday and was immediately put off by the hostess's attitude. She was very impatient when seating us, and promptly led us to the very back and offered us a table in the far corner in an otherwise empty restaurant. After being seated at a different table, the waiter gave us a very in-depth description of the specials as well as everything on the menu. The food was delicious as was the wine, but the atmosphere was a bit too pretentious for my comfort, and the food really... read more
Very Disappointing – Three of the four in my party arrived before our 6:30 reservation, but were not permitted to sit at our table to enjoy a cocktail until our fourth arrived - despite the fact that the restaurant was virtually empty at that hour. The server was surly and inattentive. Food was mediocre at best. Don't see why this place is considered "romantic" either. Very disappointing. Won't be going back.
Sinatra is Dead – This place is a colossal waste of money. Went there last night for our 1 year anniversary. I agree with the previous reviewer that compared the place to a Old Folks Home. This is definitely a holdover from a previous generation. The oak, dark carpeting, and brass are all fine. But that kind of old school taste is in the food too. That's where I draw the line. The lamb tasted like something I could've fried up at home. My wife's beef wellington might as well have been pulled out of the freezer at Gristede's.... read more
Overrated – I brought my father to OIBL TIBS when he came to visit from out of town. The ambience is a mix of Tavern on the Green and a retirement home dining room. The wait staff were polite and professional. Our first course and dessert were good, but our entrees were all below average. The restaurant was so loud that one couldn't even hear the piano and had to speak quite loudly to have a conversation. Definitely too loud to be "romantic."
Romantic? Only for the AARP set... – Just went to this past Friday for my Birthday. The service was fine...courteous and polite. Food, was good as well, if a bit oily. Their "Jackets Required" policy must be on a relaxed summer schedule as we saw a few jeans in the restaurant and very few jackets. So romanitc? Not really, but it is a great place to take your parents when they come in from out of town...
Special Romantic Place – I finally got to go to One If By Land after years of living in NY. And I was not at all disappointed. The place is cozy and classy and refined. The food is elegantly prepared and the service is impeccable. I actually avoided the Beef Wellington and tried the monkfish instead, which was moist and flaky and delicious. My dinner companion had the roasted lobster, which I highly recommend. We both had the Lichido Coladas, which we're both already craving. And, of course, the chocolate souffle for dessert... read more
