Food was incredible. We sat outside of the tavern and got to enjoy the nice weather. I could’ve eaten an entire loaf of their focaccia.

Beyond incredible! As a native New Yorker, I have been a loyal supporter from the start! The restaurant is elegant and so sophisticated! Beautiful artwork, comfortable seating, and the food is off the charts. It’s always been a 5 star dining experience each and every time. The consistency of the entire experience is overwhelming. A huge thank you to Caesar, our incredible waiter. He made our night perfect. Btw, don’t miss the bathrooms on the main floor! Thank you
