The Scene – "White noise" is the most fitting phrase to describe the blanc-on-blanc room, where diners might feel like they are sitting in a cloud. A snowy marble bar, alabaster brick walls and chalky stone tables provide a pallid palate, with chrome lamps adding the silver lining and cocoa-colored wood bringing earthy warmth. Bring your own ear horn, however: A racket more fit for a pub resounds throughout. – – The Food – Cesar Ramirez's (ex-Bouley) menu rises well above the ruckus without resorting to loud flavors. Orange zest and chutney subtly boost a jumbo…

Outrageously impressive

by cheetohsaddict at Citysearch

This is my new favorite in NY. Attentive service, never hovering, and very friendly. The menu was balanced, and everything on it is realistic, but artistic. The ambience is perfect for nice conversation and this is the ideal date spot!

  • Pros: Perfect menu, excellent service, great ambience

Overpriced Experience

by 2VillageGirls at Citysearch

Ok Girlfriends and Guyfriends this is not going to be pleasant. Simply put: Expensive and bad service. The design and decor is excellent, however, just look from the window. Once you go in you are subject to high prices, little to show for it and staff who are focused on their own needs and not that of the customer. I remember seeing little dots of cheese on the plate and a liver pate that had no taste. Sorry folks, but I do not recommend this restaurant. It left me feeling cold.

  • Pros: Decor, Design
  • Cons: Everything else.

Delicious Food, Great Service

by Msrojas at Citysearch

Went with a friend on a Friday night. We made a reservation but we were a bit late. Which was no problem. They seated us right away. The host and hostess were very sweet. As was our waiter. Some of the best service I've had in NY. I ordered the pork which was delicious. The chef also sent out two amuse-bouche (one-bite) dishes. Nice decor as well. Will be going back with my mom and sister this week for a repeat hopefully!
