Pleasantly surprised by the ambience and quality of food. We had a happy hour and dinner, and I was concerned that the dinner would be too casual, but it's a separate space from the lunch space, trendy and appropriate for business dinners. The service was outstanding from the time we walked in to the time we left. Everyone was very happy with the food. Highly recommend this spot.

The pre- fix meal was perfect for us - the pasta and branzini were excellent as were the appetizers ( butternut squash soup and salmon ) Enjoyed the desserts offered as well. Wait staff was pleasant and efficient and entire experience was great. Location is perfect for visits to Rockefeller Center and St Patrick’s and Radio City and the theater district. We’ve dined here several times and always enjoyed it — our preference is definitely the upstairs dining area which has a nicer ambiance and is less noisy than downstairs
