We had a group of my good friends here for my birthday party and had a really good time.
The space is modern and funky on the outskirts of the main drag in Tribeca. We arrived a bit early for our reservation and sat at the bar for a drink. The bartenders were very accommodating and quick to whip up our cocktails.
We had a group of 10 and there is a back room that is separated from the rest of the place with some glass doors. Very cool! We were there early, and as other reviewers have pointed out, this place is still ramping up, so there werent too many other people there.
The food was tasty and fairly priced. The waitstaff had their hiccups but held their own for the most part.
The hotel where this place sits is pretty cool. They have a rooftop that we were able to hang out on and will rival any others like it. A real gem.
Lovely restaurant inside the Hugo hotel. Great food and service, all the waiters were very knowledgable about each dish. Get the octopus appetizer! Also the lasagna bolognese has spinach infused pasta and the spaghetti with clams is a must. Would come back again.
This is my second time here. I did not give a review then as could not judge them well due to all but one waiter being pulled due to a last minute fashion week party. This time there was no party and due to late hour only a few other guests. It is often just before kitchen closing so seeing staff at their most tired. Our waiter was five stars as dealt with my ignorance of not know what pepperonata was.
The food surprisingly was not as good as last time. They took an amazing veal dish off the the menu. That is curse of my companion that the dish they love is removed when come back again. My tuna tartare was good and steak was well cooked. Apple tart was nothing amazing. Scallops also did not blow away.
Place I am sure stays open based on hotel food but since such a nice place I wish they would bring back veal. Hopefully can also keep staff.
