Horrible service and horrible hostesses. I checked in they didnt check me in— so I had to write OpenTable because they said I didn’t show up— I did.. I asked the waitress if the beans were refried— that’s all and the waitress was like they are made out of pork so I don’t know if you can eat it.. I was like umm I asked if they were refried.. she was like yeah but they are pork. I told her I’m Christian so it didn’t matter to me. If it mattered I would have told her or asked her if pork was involved. She was like yeah but you know like I know your— I stopped her right there and was like I’m Mexican/ Italian— so… it was a beautiful restaurant not excellent service. Food was ok.

The food and drinks were fantastic. They were short staffed, so getting things in a timely manner was rough. Otherwise, great ambience and a good time. ☺️

Average service from all. Food was ok and not badly priced for Times Square but eating with plastic cutlery in a restaurant is not great.
