Excellent dining experience. A very happening bar scene with the sit down portion of the restaurant logistically removed to facilitate conversation. The Bronzino was done to perfection with crispy skin and not a single bone. Hardly ever on the upper east side, but should the occasion arise, this would be my destination meal

Fabulous lunch. Prices of wines are unbelievable as with the whole of New York. Nothing at all under $60 then add tax and 20% service and its around £100 a bottle of ordinary wine! The Boathouse only adds a standard 15% service so all credit to them. The member of staff was really talkative and he was trying to be nice, but it was overpowering

The food was surprisingly good and the service was absolutely amazing. I love the way the arepitas are resented so I don’t have to choose one. The monkfish and short rib were also a nice surprise.
