We are so proud to know you and eat your amazing food week after week. Congrats - you so deserve this and much more.
See you real soon. Gigi and Jay
Had a great birthday dinner there with my husband on Saturday night. We had the five course tasting menu and wine pairing. The food was extraordinary and the wines complimented the food well. The staff was great, too! I was truly surprised when at the end of the meal, I was handed a birthday card and two chocolate truffles. Nice touch! Thank you.
We often head to NYC for this type of one-of-a kind dinner and service. It was so nice to be just minutes away from home. What a treat!
