    We were looking for a good seafood restaurant and found an outstanding experience! The food and the service exceeded expectations. The sommelier assisted with a wonderful wine selection which complimented the food. Our server was perfect in her delivery. And the chef definitely knows how to prepare and present seafood. The cod is amazing. Given we come to NYC somewhat regularly, we are glad to have found this restaurant. Highly recommend.

    Always excellent food. Not our first time there. However this time we felt like our waitress was rushing a bit and wasn’t around much. We had to tell her “wait” once before she bolted off. Not life changing, but my husband didn’t like that part

    Over all a nice experience. It would have been amazing if not starting out the night on a downer with the hostess making us wait 45 minutes for a table with an empty restaurant. I don't know what she was trying to prove but it was unnecessary and ridiculous. We had a 6 pm reservation but got there at 5:20 PM. The place was literally empty. Made no sense at all as you would think she would have wanted to get us seated and turn the table over.
