We went there for our anniversary this past weekend, and everyone from the host to the waitstaff made us feel welcome. It was our first time there, and it was a great experience. They had two servers helping us one mostly for food and the other mainly for drinks. The menu prices were standard for upper echelon places, and maybe a hair below some other places. The food my wife and I ordered were cooked to perfection and we both enjoyed our dinners. She had the Petite and I had the brisket. They also did right by dessert for our special occasion. I would highly recommend for a nice restaurant. We have celebrated our anniversary at other places like this, but I felt that this was the best of them all.

We went at an off hour (2 PM) so got stuck between shifts. We lost our waiter halfway through the service. On the plus side we were able to speak with the chef. All of the food was fresh and inventive and locally sourced when possible (Shinnecock Bay scallops). This is a gastropub so expect elevated food in casual but cozy surroundings.
