Loved the Power Lunch Special. This restaurant was just introduced to me and will be my go-to spot for client entertaining near Grand Central.

El local está precioso y el ambiente es genial. Tiene la iluminación y música adecuada. La comida es deliciosa, tanto los aperitivos, el plato fuerte, y los postres. Las porciones son grandes, por lo que es una experiencia satisfactoria. El servicio fue lo único que quedó a deber. El mesero principal no estaba muy atento, se le olvidaba lo que le pedíamos, y en varias ocasiones su semblante no era amable, ni mucho menos servicial, más bien parecía que no tenía ganas de trabajar ni de darnos el servicio. Las otras personas que nos trajeron la comida a la mesa bastante bien.

I wish I could remember the name of our server, because she was very good! We both ordered the prix fix menu, and thought it was a good value for the quality and quantity of food we received. The only complaint —if you want to call it that—was the loudness of the background music. Seems like a soft-jazz might have been more appealing…IMO. OVERALL very nice dining experience.

I visited with high expectations, having made reservations days in advance from Japan for a New Year's Eve celebration dinner with my family, and was severely disappointed. First of all, the woman who showed us to the entrance was extremely unpleasant and made us feel uncomfortable. She made us sit at a table for two in the hallway leading to the restrooms, and the waiter repeatedly kicked the legs of our chairs. The table was dark and we could not see what we were eating as it was not a dining area. Thus, we did not notice that our porterhouse steaks were overcooked and we tasted bitter burns. This disappointment was irrevocable, as all of my family members had a favorable impression of the restaurant when we visited in 2019, which was quieter, had a better atmosphere, and tasted better than Peter Luger in Brooklyn. I don't think my speaking up here will change anything, but I had to write because my entire family was hurt.
