  1. *Restaurant week*

    Wining and dining with a pianist playing in the front.   Top notch service. Very interactive with their guests. Not to mention everyone looked striking. Complimentary cotton candy and memorable photo taken by the owner and card signed by him. Was told it was a fairly new restaurant. The sommelier was knowledgeable when it came to wine and recommended us a great one made by a women in Argentina. He poured it in a decanter shaped like a snakes tail and it was interesting to watch. The staff had excellent attitude and treated everyone very nicely. The interior had an interesting contemporary yet traditional design feel to the place.

    Okay now on to the food. I was here for restaurant week with a group of friends. I started off with steak tartare, brook trout as my entree, and ended it off with a tiramisu. The portions didn't look that much but it was just right and left everyone satisfied. Only thing I suggest was that they could have done a better job at plating. A bland piece of steak on a white dish doesn't scream "Eat me, I look delicious!". Although the brook trout with a side of cream spinach was tasty and had a nice presentation. I was a bit scared of trying the steak tartare but surprisingly it wasn't that bad. Sort of reminds me of sashimi. I'm glad I didn't have a stomachache after eating raw meat since it's usually very sensitive. Tried a piece of Canadian bacon and I almost died in heaven. Omg I wish I ordered that as my appetizer. Ugh so juicy and charred just right! The filet mignon was tender and good as well. Hanger steak was served cut up in slices. Each slice had a bit of crisp on the outside and juice on the inside. It was done medium rare. Nothing special about the calamari  and herb fries. The tiramisu tasted pretty decent and was plated nicely. The cotton candy was a nice gesture for kids as well as the take away photo cards. I do say this restaurant will leave you with a fun and memorable experience. All the elements surprisingly worked together. I've had better food but the service definitely trumps it all. Therefore, I give them 4.5 stars for overall but yelp doesn't have that option so I am bumping them up because I feel like if it wasn't for high demands during restaurant week they would deserve it. Especially for a new restaurant to take on such a challenge so early in the game they did very well.

  2. I really enjoyed my experience here. The manager, Bruno, is an expert when it comes to running restaurants. If you didn't know, he also owns Club A Steakhouse which has superb reviews as well. What I particularly appreciate is the fact that he shows dedication for his place. I saw him consistently going around and making sure everyone was content. Our server was outstanding and knew the menu very well. Also, he came to the table quite frequently. The bus boys also need major credit because they work so hard here. To start, they give you a complimentary pop over which is far better than getting boring bread. We decided to pass on an appetizer, but, to my surprise, they brought out complimentary mushroom ravioli ( YUM)- it was super hot and the creamy sauce was heavenly. For our entrees, I ordered the branzino (kinda regret not going with a steak), my other guest ordered the chicken, and my one other guest ordered the prime NY strip ( best choice). I think the waiter was right when he emphasized that the place is a steakhouse. Therefore, i wish I made a better choice. Don't get me wrong, my fish was fine, but I bet they are way more focused on their steaks. As sides, we ordered the broccoli and cream spinach. I'm crazy for cream spinach and thought this one was just okay. Not as creamy as I would have liked but still good. One of the best parts of our meal was when they brought us out complimentary dessert- I believe it was tiramisu, carrot cake, and two cream puffs. Carrot cake is my absolute weakness so I had to do my best to not stuff my face. At the end of our meal, we were very pleased (and full)!

  3. Was only here for drinks, as a friend had reserved a section at the bar for his birthday celebration, but the atmosphere and space was very nice. They also have a piano on a raised platform (a mini stage, I guess) near the bar and people were taking turns playing and serenading the party with show tunes (we had a lot of musicians in this group). Drinks were made strong and well. They have a nice selection of top shelf liquor, including some very nice whiskeys. It's a rather classy place (I'm wondering what the patrons thought of our musically themed party) and I'd consider going back here to dine.

  4. We made a reservations based on the stellar Yelp reviews and boy am I glad we did! We are visiting from Seattle for the weekend and wanted to have a fabulous dinner before we headed off to the Rockettes' show.

    We were greeted by a very friendly coat check and then we were greeted and taken to our table. We ordered a bottle of wine with our delicious dinner – I had a the price fixe with the filet mignon which was A+! The owner walked around and greeted us and made sure our meals were delicious and the temperature of the restaurant was right. It was! He also opened the door for us and walked us out as we were leaving – hands down best customer service we have ever received. Definitely will be back!

  5. My husband and I went here for his birthday this year and we both thoroughly enjoyed our meals.  Walking into this steakhouse feel like stepping back into a Mad Men-esque era with red walls, comfy booths, and beautiful murals on the walls. This joint is owned by the same management as Club A Steakhouse, and it really shows.

    Located next to major attractions such as the Lincoln Center, we previously stopped by to get the pre-fixe pre-theatre menu, which includes an entree, appetizer, and dessert for $39.

    However, on this specific October evening, my husband got to try the NY strip steak and I got a try a bunch of the sides. I highly recommend the creamed spinach and the truffle mac and cheese. Both are exceptional in their own right. We were also able to bring a great Italian super tuscan to dinner for a $20 corkage fee, a very reasonable fee in my personal opinion. When we finished dinner, we got free souffle and the owner came to take our picture. There were other personal touches like a menu with "Happy Birthday" written on it. Would definitely come back for a special occasion or the pre-fixe. This restaurant is a great addition to the area.

  6. A one service from this gem of a steak house tucked away in the UWS of NYC. The steaks perfectly prepared. Sides are delicious. My wine glass was always refilled along with my water when low. Biggest plus was the free desserts.

  7. Great happy hour special of burger and beer or wine for $12-16! They also do oysters for happy hour as well! The staff is friendly, patience, and helpful. Such a great place to grab a bite before heading to Lincoln Center for a show!

  8. My wife arrange for us to have a night in the city for our 2nd Anniversary and she chose this restaurant because, well, who doesn't love a good steak!

    During the course of our dinner, every person who dealt with us wishes us a happy anniversary which was very nice.  At our table our menus were printed with a happy anniversary message, a nice touch to make our evening special.

    The food we ordered was a porterhouse for 2 with creamed spinach, potato gratin and truffle Mac and cheese. While we were waiting we emerge treated to a delicious homemade bread and a sample of the mushroom ravioli, also delicious.

    The porterhouse was cooked perfectly and delicious. Spinach was the best I have had in a steakhouse so far and I love the fact that it was not overly creamy. Potato gratin were very nice also. My wife loved the truffle Mac and cheese.

    We were not going to have a desert because the meal was enough but another surprise, a chocolate soufflé to share with a happy anniversary message on the plate along with a nice photo keepsake from the manager. What a lovely way to finish off a perfect meal.

    They certainly made our experience memorable with not just the food but he service and the atmosphere. Wonderful restaurant.
