Nice and comfortable interiors. Stayed in because of the cold weather. But also walked through the outdoor area - I can imagine having a good time dining outside as well. Great view of the Manhattan skyline, seating areas with fire pits, interesting sculptural art pieces that are picture-worthy.

Very cozy and pleasant environment. Good diverse menu that can satisfy many palettes -- sort of a continental/french/italian fusion restaurant. Would please a foodie. Excellent service and wine advice and a fun playlist for an enjoyable evening. Seafood and steak specials were excellent, as were scallops, meatball sliders (though they tasted like a sausage/meatball hybrid), and chicken was tender and perfectly cooked. Will definitely go back. Not a full bar but a beer/wine menu.
