Best Restaurants with a Scenic View in Midwood

Our first time-brought family from out of town and everyone was very happy, grandparents, parents, and kids. Not to mention the staff were very warm and welcoming. Overall fantastic experience, we will be back and encourage others to go!

we've been a few times. every one has been outstanding! window tables have a spectacular view of the bridge & lower manhattan, with the east river ferries docking so close you could almost touch them. catch dom on piano if you can; he's been playing there for decades and with good reason. the best wait staff you'll find anywhere! stunning entrance plantings at the end of the cobblestone drive. oh yeah, the chow... last night, nantucket bay scallops for appetizer, sea bass for main course, "the bridge" for dessert, plus additional on-the-house items. all excellent. russian caviar for those with too much disposable income. don't forget: bring your home equity line of credit or similar. well worth it. go big or go home.

This restaurant is know for it's pasta it's specials, plus some unique wines. Parking is a bit rough. Reservations are a must. My wife and I both had the Squid ink pasta, each with different seafood, both were great. Our server met our every need. The restaurants take on Tartufo is different than most, but still very good.

Mariella consistently provides a phenomenal experience, from the ambiance to the staff and the menu. I've never had a bad experience here and continue to love coming here!

That was a busiest Saturday night I have ever seen. Barely made reservation for 5 people, but table was ready when we arrived. Service was wonderful and the food excellent ! Red sangria is boosey and tasty . Worth every penny. When we were leaving there was a line to get in on the street.
