Marie La RueJuly 16, 2017Re-visited recently. Decor still spectacular. Food & service were subpar. Sea bass satay were a standout. Music so loud on a Thursday at 8:30pm, impossible to have a conversation.
Hal KirklandOctober 16, 2013DON'T under any circumstances mistake this for the service knocker.It drives the staff, as nice as they are, insane!The fact that it's in the corridor and not in the actual restaurant accentuates this
Jasmine MehrabiDecember 20, 2022Good music and appetizers (spicy tuna tartare, chicken lollipop, soup) but mains were kind of bland except for the shrimp dish.
Angela StevensonOctober 17, 2013Service is nice and I loved the ambiance! Also we had 20%off because it was the opening week. Great!!
Jenny CuiNovember 8, 2013There are about a billion people near the bar. If you already got your drinks, please don't be a prick and lean on the bar to chat with your friends.
Stavria K.November 12, 2015Ok! As all the nightclubs I have been in NYC. Full of american teens who move and drink like Mick Jagger!
RyanAugust 21, 2016Giant space! Go here for the atmosphere, food is good but nothing to get excited about
great atmosphere! delicious and expensive but worth it.
Ingvild M. PlosivNovember 23, 2014We, two friends and I, had a table booked for 22.15, and got it at 23.05... They tried to make up for it by giving us a drink and a dessert, but the mojo was gone. Food was ok. I'm not going back.
- Gourmet BachelorNovember 9, 2013New downtown hot spot located in Meatpacking. Wear your Varvatos jacket, don't leave the Prada bag at home.
Sanjeev SreetharanJanuary 5, 2014Beware the desserts: the waitress lied to my face, i specifically asked if there was molten chocolate in my warm chocolate cake, but that was a complete fabrication. I feel morally violated.
Anderson AntunesNovember 2, 2014The best Halloween party in the whole wide world, by the gorgeous Heidi Klum! ❤️🎃
James John (Jay) Cudney IVMarch 19, 2017Excellent food and wine. Grasshopper layer cake was amazing.

"Great lunch specials - try the lettuce satay wraps or steamed veggie dumplings as an appetizer, and the crispy beef as an entree. Fast, polite service - good spot for East Side lunch meetings."
