We had a wonderful time, celebrating and catching up with friends. It was festive and fun. Service was excellent. Food was delicious. Drinks were fantastic. It’s a special occasion place and you can’t beat the atmosphere and ambiance. Enjoyed views of Central Park carriage horses all throughout our time there.

I chose RH Guesthouse, Dining Room to celebrate what would have been my Mother’s 80th birthday. Unfortunately, she died in February. I wanted to spend it as she would have with good food and drinks. The service was impeccable. The menu is elegant and abbreviated, but the selections are more than sufficient. I will definitely return. It may possibly be my annual go-to to celebrate the fabulous woman who was my Mom!

Kazon was our server and he made our experience perfect. His timing on taking care of myself and my guests, along with his suggestions were brilliant. A must visit anytime of the year, but especially special during the holidays. We did dress for the occasion, and I highly recommend doing so. You experience a level of fine dining while being accompanied by fellow guests with the same taste, it’s a lovely way to slow time down in the busy hustle of Manatan❤️
