The main courses were delicious. The pizza was perfect all the flavors so rich and blended so well together. And the dessert was the best dessert I’ve had in my entire life it was just apple pie with gelato and strawberry drizzle but something about the flavors all together were absolutely amazing. Definitly one of my top picks ever.

Been meaning to come to this one for a bit. It most definitely lived up to the hype. Hitting the starters with a great crab Rangoon with a very nice presentation and one of the big hitters the truffle monkey bread, intricate taste on such a soft loaf. The burger and prime rib French dip were especially good, very rich taste on both and the blend they use on the burger is phenomenal. I do regret not getting a side of the thick cut bacon to add to the burger. I would probably skip over the vodka rigatoni and the crab cakes, not bad at all but nothing too special. 100% worth the visit if you can snag a reservation.

The fries and lasagna were delicious. But the free starter bread is severely underrated. Kept it at my table the whole time ate the onion loaf with my lasagna it was delicious almost asked to buy some for home.

Great no frills burger. Very juicy and flavorful patty and simple just cheese and onions. Fries very light and airy yet crispy and a great salty pairing to the rich flavor of the burger. Strong hitter for NYC burgers.
