    If you’re a chocolate lover, this place is for you! We had the Oreo hot chocolate and the salted caramel one, both were delicious. We then had a pizza followed by a sharing fondue platter with milk chocolate for dipping. It was so More-ish but we were defeated in the end! Loads of food, well presented and so yummy. Well worth it!

    Wait staff is always friendly & patient. Today was no different. Although the reservation was 12:15 pm, the restaurant was practically empty during the lunch hour. Highly unusual. Every other time I’ve been there it’s been very busy. Food was tasty & prepared quickly. Restaurant was clean & tastefully decorated. I don’t understand the severe drop in patronage.

    Had Sunday brunch with a friend. I had the guilt-free omelet, which was delicious. But the home fried potatoes were a major disappointment - over-cooked, dry and not well seasoned. I wanted to have some tea with my brunch, but they did not have English Breakfast or any other black tea, only Earl Grey and herbals. The Biscotti Cheesecake was very good, but much sweeter than it needed to be.

    Great for weekday brunch or lunch. Good food, beautiful room, good service. Wasn't crowded and we could linger and enjoy. Very good Union Square lunch option.
