Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Food wasn’t bad but very expensive, even for New York. Cauliflower starter was too big, half the portion and price would be fine. Pasta dish was good but a bit hard… mire undercooked than al dente… Staff and ambiance both all very nice

We ordered some light fare on a sweltering day—all three specialty roasts (ricotta, smoked salmon, and avocado)—along with the lemon pancakes, and fried calamari and zucchini. Everything was truly exceptional as was the air conditioned interior and friendly, prompt service. The Bloody Mary I ordered...was the best I have ever had, and the mimosa and lemonade were also good. Highly recommended and a stand out part of our vacation for the entire family.More

Despite the very lovely looking outside seating vestibules we decided to sit inside. First mistake! It was hot and stuffy in the restaurant and we had a very small table. Our French waitress was delightful. We were served stale focaccia and sour dough which was...a disappointment. The crispy cauliflower lacked flavour and the accompanying horseradish (which I love) and paprika aioli was unpleasant. The octopus was nice as was the monkfish. However the pea ravioli turned up as something unrecognisable. My Italian partner and I were also confused when our pasta and secondi arrived at the same time. When we asked they said they ran out of ravioli and so gave us fusilli with a pea sauce, we returned the item and didn’t order a replacement. My partner ordered the chocolate mousse for desert which he enjoyed. We left the restaurant 55 minutes after arriving.More

We enjoyed a lovely brunch/lunch here with our daughter, son in law and Granddaughter on the 12th. It was a warm winter day and we reserved one of the tables in the annex portion of the restaurant “outdoors.” The space is very comfortable and includes...heat, window and carpeting. Our server, Marina was excellent and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the service. Our bus attendant was also very nice. The food was outstanding, nicely presented and delicious. We ordered Mimosas, Brussels Sprouts Salad, Roasted Cauliflower Salad, Avocado Toast, Pappardelle, French Toast, Paccheri Pomodoro and Purgatorio. All outstanding!!! We love this restaurant on the prettiest street in NYC and will be back.More

This place has been on my radar for a while and I'm so glad I was finally able to dine here this past weekend. Since indoor dining was prohibited at the time, we dined outside in the intimate space that was created. It was setup...in away that followed social distancing guidelines which made me comfortable. With that said, this restaurant is a well-oiled machine. The staff and service were some of the best I've encountered. And we have to talk about how incredible the food and cocktails are. Each meal was beautifully plated and tasted amazing. You can tell they take pride in their dishes to create a memorable experience. I can't wait to go back!More

Me and my husband went there this weekend, pure luck we were walking by and saw this restaurant and decided maybe we could have dinner there if they had a table. They sat us right away, which was very nice. For appetizer we had the...tuna tartare and was absolutely divine!!! We loved it! My husband had the branzino and he said it was really tasty, me on the other hand picked the pasta with burrata (had a root canal the day before and wanted something easy to chew) but I was a bit disappointed at my dish. I mean...it was a regular pasta. Nothing wow about it. Considering the prices I thought my pasta would be delicious. So if you plan to go there order something else. The pasta is just average...not worth the price. Everything else was amazing, very clean and we enjoyed it a lot.More

Absolutely delicious food, all fish and vegetarian. Despite my love for a good steak, I found so much to commend about this place: the pasta dish I had was marvelous and my companion's fish was divine. I only discovered this sweet spot when I paused...to scan their menu and two people going in separately stopped to give me a quick rave review. Lovely, lovely atmosphere, intimate, unhurried and warm. Service was attentive and helpful. I will definitely be back!More

We asked for a quiet table, both when we booked and when we arrived, and were seated in the back room, hot and noisy, next to five women who were laughing and shrieking. They had finished eating before we arrived and stayed until we had...almost finished our entrees because the waiters had not produced the check and then didn’t finish the transaction. The loud music with a repetitive beat only encouraged everyone to yell louder. And the room was so dark that we had to use a flashlight to see the menu. The minute we finished our appetizers, one waiter took our plates and another immediately put our entrees on the table. We felt as though we were being rushed. When I reviewed the check, I thought the wine price was higher than I remembered, so asked to see the wine list. They had charged us $2 more than the listed price. When I pointed this out, they produced another check and said the computer had the wrong price. I suspect this was not an unusual situation, so beware! My rating is Poor instead of Terrible only because the food was good!More

We wanted to go to a different restaurant nearby, but the wait was way to long. We did not have a reservation, but were told they could seat us if we were willing to wait 5-10 minutes. After a short time we were escorted to...a corner table for two in the second room to the rear. The restaurant was packed with tables in lively conversation. We shared a unique appetizer of grilled artichoke and avocado. The combination was rich and very tasty. For main courses we had grilled Branzino with a butternut squash puree and a fish special of Long Island Fluke prepared milanese with arugala and cherry tomato salad on top. With a squirt of fresh lemon, it was perfection. We ordered a rose from Provence that was priced right a wonderful accompliment. We will be backMore
