Really great experience!

My husband and I went for our anniversary because we LOVE cheese. I was a bit skeptical because of the bad reviews but we decided to go anyway. We started off with 2 stilton martinis(which were delicious) at the lounge/waiting area and then went to our table. We ordered 4 cheeses and the gougeres. The cheeses were ridiculously good (we asked for stinky) however, the gougeres were not as fantastic as everyone says! They were just like mini rolls that tasted like cheese - I thought there was going to be cheese melted inside of them but there wasn't ( I should have asked!) Then I had an app portion of the mussels and the mac and cheese (both were fantastic) and my husband had the lamb (he said it was good) Then we had the cheesecake and the waitress, Amy, was fantastic, she had written "Happy Anniversary" in chocolate on the side of our plate! The service was great !!! If I were to go back I would skip out on the entree and would probably just have a plate of 15 cheeses and extras(honey, walnuts, proscuitto, etc...) and a nice bottle of wine.

• Pros: CHEESE
• Cons: none

Terrific Service, Awesome CHEESE!

We went here for dinner before going to see a show. Since it's not super close to Times Square, we told the server and she made sure that we were out with plenty of time. We ordered these "cheese flights" that had wine pairings - little glasses that go with each piece of cheese. Not only were they delicious, but a really cool idea.

We then had 2 entrees - I had the skate "wing", my boyfriend had a steak. Our server described the skate exactly the way it came out - which was delicious. The fries were really tasty too.

I had profiteroles with pistactio ice cream in them. The guy drizzled chocolate on them right at the table. Tasty!

OH the wine! It was really good! We had a sommolier visit the table who really know pretty much everything I've ever wanted to know. Really tasty stuff. And you can get something like 100 different wines by the glass! (We didn't want a full bottle after the flights with the cheese!)

My honey and I can't wait to go back.

• Pros: Attentive, knowledgeable staff, really cool cheese plates
• Cons: What are the drawbacks?
