My sister and I are having a Girl's Weekend and we came here for brunch. We reserved an igloo and it was so adorable, heated nicely, and such a nice space. The only thing I would comment negatively on was the music--so loud. The host stand was amazing and Adam, our server, was fantastic. It'a a beautiful space with a great menu. We had a wonderful time.

Always a great meal with fantastic service at this and all the Cecconi's locations that I have frequented worldwide. We were happy to get a table with a view and try some creative cuisine. The whipped ricotta with truffle was superb. I feel like a lot of restaurants have the same menus these days and the chef really puts his own spin on some basic items and really makes them mouth watering. Quite the enjoyable experience!

This was our first time to visit , and it will definitely not be the last. We were spoiled when we first entered …..:. Throughout the evening and until departure ….. 2 1/2 hours of an EXPERIENCE….. Steven the Sommelier was very knowledgeable and he had numerous recommendations for pairing with the food we selected and our bottle of wine we started with. …:: the pairing with desert blew us away …. And the valet summoning a driver ….. thanks again. And see you next time when we are in town. Bill Harris

Our server, Maya, was personable and diligent. The fare was delicious, and the bill was, as expected, steep. A very New York experience.

Iconic place. Atmosphere is great. Views are best but partially blocked by structure of the building, even in the best tables. Food is good but nothing special
