    My friend and I had t seen each other for 5+ years. She traveled into Grand Central from CT. After much research for a place to meet, Park Ave Kitchen by David Burke was such a convenient meeting place. When we arrived, the ambience was wonderful. The restaurant room was spacious, tables were well-spaced, and welcoming. We hadn’t seen each other for so long, we didn’t look at the menu for a long time. Our waiter was patient and kind, understanding our need for time to yak! Then the food came. It was delicious! I got the tomato bisque soup and Brussel sprouts. My friend got the lobster ravioli. YUM! A fantastic experience, especially in an area of the city that’s populated and hard to find comfortable, spacious, tasty food. I’d go back - might even go sit at the bar next time. Highly recommend!

    Love our meal at strange delight. The room is surprisingly beautiful. The cocktails were very well-made. And the dishes we tried were wonderful. Prices are definitely high, the gin ramos fizz is $10 more than when it was reviewed in August, but I would return. The food, drinks and ambulance were wonderful.
