    Came for dinner here with my friends, after a colleague at work recommended it. This restaurant opened recently, and they really paid attention to all the details. We shared appetizers, and everything (except mussels, Did not try, not a fan of it) we had was delicious. Food had prefect flavor balance, and the texture of the Scallops Tartare was my favorite. The ambiance is just perfect for a nice dinner with friends, but also has the feel that you can come here on a date (which I would probably do, great way to impress). The service was just the way I love it, engaging enough, but never felt disturbed. They really pay attention to details!

    We stopped here for Sunday brunch after a visit to the AMNH. We were warmly greeted and seated quickly for our big group. Love the inside; it's a mix between classic and modern. The music choices were also spot on. Service may not have been an effusive server, but he was definitely efficient and accurate. Big big kudos to the staff who kept refilling our water glasses MULTIPLE times without prompting. The food varied from pretty good to great. I had an avocado toast with "bacon" (which was really canadian bacon). The avocado was particularly fresh and the scrambled eggs were still a bit moist and rich which is how they should be done. The mixed greens were simple yet tasty. The nutella waffle was also quite good with terrific fresh strawberries and blueberries. But the lobster eggs benedict was a bit of a miss, with the lobster on the side of it and just didn't have that fresh lobster feeling. You're better off with the standard eggs benny. Others enjoyed the french toast and the burrata waffle (with prosciutto). For the price point though, we should expect even more. If you're going to charge a premium then you've got to nail it 24/7. This fell a bit short. Still, it was a great choice for Sunday brunch and would gladly go back again.

    Really delicious meal with friendly attentive service! My favs were the truffle mushroom flatbread, French onion soup and consulate burger with crispy fries. Also the special uni small scallops squid ink pasta was very creamy & flavorful, it was $48. Came here for early Mother's Day celebration, for an earlier dinner 5pm Saturday then started to get really busy. Apps and entrees came out in a decent time but then dessert took a while to come, like 20 minutes - it was just cheesecake & tiramisu which we thought would be quick. Overall it was a nice meal but very pricey.
