We’ve eaten here multiple times on multiple trips to NYC and we’re always impressed with the incredible professionalism and efficiency in which the staff move through massive volumes of people. It is a true testament to teamwork and commitment to customers. The food is amazing, oh my gosh, wait until the French toast comes out topped with fresh berries and whipped cream, the mimosas are delicious with fresh orange juice, and it’s really fun squeezed in among the artwork and atmosphere with your family and friends. This restaurant is top tier and hits all notes - warm place, staff, and food. Don’t miss it, it’s sure to become a fave!
