Great find if you are looking for someplace to go in the Lincoln Center area! So nice to go out and eat good food while not breaking the bank! We had the quinoa salad, tuscan vegetable soup, and a meatball parm sandwich and all were nicely prepared and delicious! Near to all the Lincoln Center events and not a big place, so probably best to make a reservation. Love the low-key atmosphere too. Will definitely return.

The folks were kind and fun and made my daughter's birthday special. The fondu was incredible., the fries perfect. It took a pretty long time to get the main courses and by the time they came, a lot of it was cold and the kids didn't eat it. I asked to have my burger heated up, land et him know we were on a time crunch, but he said they would remake it- which was kind, but took more time. The desserts also took a lot of time, so much so that they covered the cost. Despite this, it was a wonderful place, perfect for folks who enjoy a cool atmosphere and are hoping to lounge for a good 2-3 hours.
