   What an incredible dinner. Luis was our waiter, he is impeccable. Poor guy, we forgot our tickets to the show we were going to after, so I left my wife to just have appetizers while I went to retrieve them. We then mus have gone back and forth 2-3 times on weather she would (I was on the phone) actually order them or not and later about whether we would have time for me to get back in time for the mains. Luis adjusted every time, with a smile and a recommendation, and never made us feel bad about it! Service like this is very rare in NYC and the US nowadays. The manager on duty, Joseph, was also incredible! Both were very attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure our chaotic dinner became one of accomodations and DELICIOUS food!!

   Very pleasant staff. Ambiance very nice. Menu is different. They seem to have added a sushi option, but as a result, their regular seafood and non- seafood menu selections gave become limited.

   The Atlantic Grill remains a must on the most discerning list. The quality of the food, the presentation, the service are consistently outstanding. Special shout out to James for his impeccable service.

   Service slow and inattentive: many examples. I ordered the paella in which the chorizo (a main ingredient ) was absent. Oysters (you cant ruin those) were very good. I’d think twice before a return visit.

   I have deep appreciation for Atlantic Grill: when I want food and service to be professional, cordial and unobtrusive, when I want to have conversations with friends not necessarily sitting in my lap so we can hear one another speak, when I want to be finished in time to get to the theater but never feel rushed if I my purpose is to be there and enjoy the company I'm in. As for value, when eggs are running $14 a dozen in NY and $20 in LA, I can't complain about a slightly overpriced bottle of wine or a pricey but unprepossessing Branzino. All in all I've long felt this is what a restaurant should be; special enough for a special occasion, just right for any occasion. Basically I love memorable restaurants, but I remember good ones like Atlantic Grill.

   A very nice restaurant. Perfect for dinner before our show at Lincoln Center. The service was excellent and our food was as well! We will be back!

   We had a great experience at Atlantic Grill. Our lead service person was Kayla and she was AWESOME! She had fantastic recommendations, especially for drinks and desserts. We absolutely loved the white flower cocktail and the espresso martinis. This was a great choice for pre-Lincoln Center dining and we would definitely go back.

   I was disappointed that sushi can not be ordered until after 4 PM. My bill was costly- two cappuccinos, 2 orders of poached eggs w salmon came close to $100. I do love AG but that’s very pricey! If you don’t offer sushi until after 4 PM your website should stare that info.

    Overall, a little bit of a disappointment. We’ve dined at the east side location before and had a lovely time and excellent food. I decided to try their Valentine’s Day tasting menu with my wife. The oyster appetizer had too much sauce on them completely masking the flavor of the oysters. The prosciutto and burrata appetizer was fine though the prosciutto didn’t have a lot of flavor. The scallop entrée was delicious, but my wife had to send back the squid taglioni, which was not. And to top it all, I prepaid for our dinner through OpenTable (in fact it was required in order to make the reservation), however, I was presented with a full bill at the end of dinner and told by a manager that OpenTable had refunded the money, which of course they hadn’t. I don’t know what was the cause of that error, but not a great experience. Especially since the restaurant continues to call me for a refund I have never received from OpenTable.
