Possibly the worst service ever – I agree with the previous reviewer on food -- mediocre at best. Mealy tomatoes in a salad? Even in winter, that's unforgivable if you take your food seriously. Fish was overdone, dry, and oversalted. But the flaw that really stands out is the service. After waiting 30 minutes past our reservation, we (2 of us) were seated next to a drunk and shouting party of 4. We asked to be moved, and although we were assured we would be, we were not. The waitress was indifferent (putting it mildly) and s... read more

Did we go to the same "place" as these other reviewers? – We go out to eat about four nights a week and rely heavily on customer reviews. We Googled "romantic"restaurants in NYC and The Place ranked second. I'm not sure whether the rating was due to the tight quarters or the Josh Groben hits pumping out of the speakers - but it was mediocre at best. The dining room had two tables in service and the host sat us right next to a single diner, which is awkward, instead of another two-top. The appetizers (goat cheese ravioli and ... read more

Delighted – I've passed "The Place" many times and was always curious to try it. I finally did, and was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting more of a pub-type setting, but turned out to have a fine, romantic meal. We ordered the scallops to start - they were very well prepared with a caramelized exterior and tender center, also a lovely sauce. We then ordered the cod on the waiter's recommendation, which was excellent - and I am generally not a fan of cod. Although the waiter did seem like he would have rather been somewhe... read more

Feels like you're in southern Italy. – The atmosphere is serene and the drinks are great. The food's fine, but nothing to rave over, this is more of a hang-out then a dinner spot.

Best Cod I've ever tasted - and delicious eclectic waitstaff! - all whom provided warm yet not overbearing service – This 'Place' is magical - its like walking into another world, although you sit close to other patrons - its like everyone was hand-picked to get along. My guests each ordered different items - we all tasted each others - each was extraordinary and exceptional. You can tell the Chef goes to tremendous lengths to select the freshest market produce. -We have been coming here or years and it just seems to get bet... read more

Tension with the waiter! – Ok..Imagine this, a first date. My date and I ordered a few apps and drinks. The waiter said, "is that it?" like he was offendend we were not spending abunch of cash. My date asked for him to leave the menu on the table, we may order more apps.You could cut the tension with a knife.We ate and got the heck outta there! Food good, waiter very stuckup. Great atmosphere.

the best place – there is something unique and special about this cozy restaurant. i was there this week (for the fourth time) and ate the cod and frisee salad. my friend had the pork and the risotto, and everything was delicious. not only that but the service was great. everyone i bring here loves it, it's like a gem hidden away in the west villiage, i feel fortunate to have stumbled upon it, and i know i'll be back soon!

Exceptional...and every single time – I take a lot of my foodie friends here (we went through culinary school together), as well as my out-of-town guests. The food isn't ostentatious, nor does it try too hard. It is just good cooking...period. The atmosphere can't be beat and, together with the service, you feel like you are a "regular" and are welcomed warmly. This is the kind of restaurant where you genuinely like the management and hope they continue to succeed at what they do, because they obviously care. It doesn't hurt... read more

Overall - great romantic restaurant – My husband found this place three years ago, and we've had our anniversary dinner there ever since. The service is spectacular and the food is superb. We've tried several of the dishes and have not been disappointed. Some of the other reviewers have had problems with the manager...don't let this dissuade you from trying "The Place." You won't regret it.
