    I came with a friend for lunch during the week. I started with a Bloody Mary which was perhaps one of the best I’ve ever had anywhere. I’ve had it here before. I got their salmon with lentils. I’ve gotten it before as well and I absolutely loved it. It was perfectly cooked. I asked for some bread and they brought two delicious hot rolls with butter. Yummy. I finished with a latte and it was also excellent. The food was absolutely excellent. The service also was excellent. We had a very pleasant friendly young female waitress.

    Pre Theater dinner so had no time to waste in order to get to our show. Sardi's does not disappoint. The service is excellent, timely and efficient. The room is energetic and packed most of the time. Not a place for quiet intimate conversation but the absolutely perfect spot to grab excellent food and drink before a show. Highly recommend. Better make a reservation -
