• birthday dinner, party of 20

  There for a birthday dinner for 20 people. The food was really good. The standouts for me were the ceasar salad (it's not usually my go to), thw crab avocado was so delectable. The flavors were perfectly paired. The branding was also worth mentioning with the smoky flavor from the charcoal grill. The cherry on top was the homemade ice cream. Oh my...this was amazing.

• private room dinner, party of 10

  We had a group of 10 in a private room. I had the crab and avocado to start, along with the branzino and sautéed spinach. Phenomenal!

• friends dinner, party of 8

  I went here with friends and we were a party of 8. I know people say this all the time but I truly do not write reviews but really felt compelled this time. I’ve been going to restaurants in NYC for 25+ years and this used to be one of my go to places. No more. Is the food good? Yes when cooked right, but there are concerns there too which I’ll get to. The service, not so much. Especially after a crazy bill which I know can be expected in some steakhouses. Firstly, I ordered a bottle of wine after asking the waiter several questions about the wine list only to meet the sommelier when the bottle came. He informed me that the waiter said he wasn’t needed. That should be my choice, not the waiter’s. Then 4 of the 8 steaks dishes (almost all filet mignon) came incorrectly cooked. The waiter asked us to cut in the middle and agreed and took the dishes back. By the way, for $65 each, this should not happen to 4 dishes. Another issue, he took ours dishes that we had already had portions of the sides we ordered on. Normally, I’m not sure I would be so annoyed but the side dishes are now so ridiculously small. The whipped potatoes came in a 3”x3” dish for $17. Barely enough for one. The creme brûlée corn was quite tasty but again, maybe the dish was 6” round for $19. Same for gnocchi. The waiter said the size was good for sharing. These were not at all and even less when they took the plates away. No replacement on this either. Finally, the “correctly cooked” steaks came after a really long time. Half the table was finishing up when we just got ours. Mine, which I asked for medium rare, came back medium the first time. Second time, it was rare. Ok, moving on. When the waiter came back to see if we wanted dessert, he only took orders from one side of the table and didn’t even ask my side. Oh yes, he did eventually bring a complimentary strawberry ice cream. After all this?? I’m sorry but do better Quality Meats!!! Lessoned learned (although a really expensive one). I’m back to Del Frisco’s or Strip House. If you’re going to pay top dollar, get it right and NYC has too many choices to settle for this. For reference, we were sitting upstairs at a large round table closer to the front.

• group dinner, party of 12

  Now this place is on another level! The seafood towers are crazy! Delicious, fresh wow! The cocktails and everything we ordered...... unbelievable! Delicious! Great job to everyone there for making this one of my favorite dining experiences while in New York. We had a big group of 12, and the service was top-notch! Stay great to you all!

• large group dinner

  Restaurant was nice, a little too loud to enjoy converaation in a large group. The food was phenomenal except for the steaks. Every steak that was served to our table tasted heavily of char though they were cooked to the proper doneness. What a waste to get a $100 steak which is cooked “perfectly” to the correct done-ness of medium rare/rare yet only tasted like it was burnt. If i wanted that i would have asked for a pittsburgh rare. If you go here order the fish, everything seafood realted and all the sides were phenomenal. Steaks though, one star.
