    This new restaurant is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. The chief uses unusual and interesting additional ingredients in each dish. It wasn't just grilled branzino but branzino with fennel, parsley and a wonderful green type of pesto sauce. The restaurant is lovely including the flatware, light fixtures and wainscotting. I am sure it will be a tough place to get a reservation. You go once and know you want to come back again.

    Food was nothing short of excellent...flavors + preparation. Overall great dining experience. If I had to be super critical both pastas came out barely warm and timing between apps and first course was a bit long. I think most people enjoy their food hot...only criticism.

    I feel bad for this place. Great service, wonderful surroundings, but the menu is uninspired and the food bland. It was my second time here. I wanted to go twice just in case my first time was just a mistake. But both times were the same. I was having a hard time getting reservations at other local restaurants the Wednesday before Thanksgiving so have them this second try. And there is a reason why they were the only restaurant that was mostly empty. They need to rework the menu and get a new chef. Add new items to the menu and don’t forget to season the dishes a bit. The competition on the Upper East Side is fierce. Unless there is a rapid change soon, they will not make it 6 months.

    Food was excellent as was the service. Background music was perfect unlike some restaurants where you can’t even hear yourself let alone the people you’re eating with. Overall a great meal.
