- KKevinNew York City •22 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThis restaurant has become our go to special event place. So few of these experiences remain. Not only is the food exquisite, but it’s almost a throwback to “fine dining“. The uniformed staff is knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and incredibly attentive. The last time we went for Thanksgiving, at the end of the meal, the waiter handed us his business card and recommended that the next time we came back, we asked for him and he would be sure we were well taken care of. Who does that? Totally amazing. Cannot recommend this highly enough. More infoThe Capital Grille - StamfordPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Stamford•4.8
- BBarbaraVIPNew York City •38 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoI’ve been to Valbella many, many times and often for a holiday. This Christmas Eve was very unusual in my experience. Our table wasn’t ready when we came in. The bar and entranceway were packed and I thought we ’d never be seated. We did wait 15 minutes but apologies all around. There must have been a problem because I’ve never experienced this. Once we sat down at the best table (in front of the fireplace), all went well. The waiter was fantastic: he didn’t rush us, had a sense of humor and acted like we were his only table. Everyone enjoyed their meals. A lovely way to spend Christmas Eve.More infoValbella ConnecticutPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Riverside•4.7

- LLaceyNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoDinner at Tony’s was everything I wanted and more! I had an excellent fettuccine with scallops, shrimp and lobster. It was piping hot and insanely delicious. My husband had the rack of lamb which was incredibly flavorful and tender. We ended the night with the tiramisu which was something I had been craving for a few weeks (12 weeks pregnant) and it 100% satisfied that craving! The service was excellent, the ambiance was fun and Tony himself came over to thank us for coming. Highly recommend getting a meal here when you’re in the area!More infoTony's at the J HousePrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Greenwich•4.6
