The Highlawn is nothing short of spectacular! From the moment you step into the elegant setting, you’re greeted with breathtaking views of the New York City skyline and an ambiance that radiates sophistication.

From the time you enter until the time you leave the staff make you feel like family. Our first time at this restaurant, we chose it to celebrate a birthday. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We each ordered something different and every meal was delicious. We found our new favorite restaurant.

Lunch. Had 3 small plates which were plentiful and delicious. The combo bread basket was plentiful. Beautifully decorated Efficient and friendly staff

Enjoyed the restaurant. Ambiance was great and cozy. Food was delicious and service was superb. My only criticism is that they didn’t have the fillet so I ordered rib eye, which turned out just fine. Happens. Other than that, would highly recommend.

Celebrated my son's 30th birthday there. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Menu was creative. Food quality and portion size was excellent.
