    My return visit is already penciled into my calendar. Every bite was flavorful and you have lots of choices. How could any restaurant do more for you? This place has its own distinctive style. This restaurant demonstrates undeniable skill.

    Really nothing worth writing home about. The burger was just bland think high-school cafeteria quality and the fries were under cooked. The prices were high but that's certainly more about location than quality of the food. Service was decent and the atmosphere was lively and energetic. Overall though you should probably give this place a pass.

    Stephanie our bartender was awesome. In town for the NYC city marathon to cheer on my sister. She was very friendly as she waited on 10 of us at the bar on 11/1… I’m revising my review based on our experience the last night we were in NYC 11/2/2028. George the mgr was very rude to me and our party of 10 when we came into the restaurant (and we all were staying at the hotel) restaurant wasn’t crowded at all and proceeded to tell me that I needed a reservation when asked to seat our party in the bar after he set up a table top for a party of 12 that so called had reservation. That party never showed up! He told me that a waitress had to wait on us no problem based on we had been in the restaurant numerous times while in town for NYC marathon. From a previous review I read it seems that they discriminate against black and brown guest. Also the bartender that evening was extremely rude to two of the people that was part of our group. They just wanted a drink at the bar as the arrived later and she was extremely rude…
