    I couldnt have picked a better place to enjoy my first dinner of 2025. For starters, the restaurant is visually beautiful and they perfectly curated the music to create a relaxing ambience. It is clear that management has a particular attention to detail and it is something I greatly appreciate in any dining experience. I was seated upstairs near the balcony overlooking the downstairs dining area. It felt intimate but still lively. My server was Alecta and she was absolutely incredible. She made solid recommendations and checked in regularly to ensure I was enjoying my dining experience. The food was a 10/10 and came out quickly. I ordered the lobster bisque and the 12oz Australian ribeye. At no point did I have to ask for anything because the staff was so attentive. I will absolutely be returning and I 100% recommend to anyone.

    We live on the UWS and decided to check out this fairly new steakhouse for an early dinner on New Year's Day so it was fairly quiet. The decor is modern and comfortable. The service was attentive and helpful and the meal was outstanding! The onion soup and mac n cheese were top notch. The NY strip steak was tender and cooked to perfection. The fries were crisp and not over salted. The spinach was cooked just the right amount. Desserts of chocolate lava cake and creme brûlée were superb. We will definitely be back to taste several other items on the menu. Definitely worth the expense. Cheers!
