Excellent service and delicious food. The wine list is extensive and can get very pricey. The Gelato al cioccolato was delicious! We all enjoyed our meals and it was very convenient being next to the Metropolitan Opera.

Not quite as good as it should be given the prices but the perfect pre-opera location. Himachi was incredibly skimpy but tasty. Salad was very good but not super fresh. Excellent service and atmosphere. It’s tough to find a good place near Lincoln Center…. Came back a year later - the pastas were excellent and so was the dessert. The restaurant did a shockingly bad no-no though - gave us a bill, and then we give them the card and when they give it back to us to sign they add a glass of wine -?! Cost them a star….

Our celebratory group dinner at the restaurant on Tuesday was disappointing. Despite a friendly host ( I can't say the same about the hostess) the food was average, though the wine list was great , however the pushy, persistent , disorganized service wasn't amazing. Despite crumbs on the seats in our nearly empty section, we enjoyed a pleasant conversation at our table by the windows. The spacious and quiet (our section was nearly empty) atmosphere was perfect for catching up. While the restaurant boasts a quiet atmosphere be prepared for a slightly decadent vibe. Overall, the spaciousness, quiet ambiance, and good wine list make this restaurant worth a visit, especially if you don't mind average food , and pushy service. The space itself is worth it.

Biggest bang for the buck, for Michelin worthy food, but not yet a star. Every single dish we ordered was just absolutely delectable.

Hands down one of the best fresh pasta programs in NYC. This place is such a great time. Every time I visit I am always blown away with the menu and the ability to make such complex pasta dishes taste so light and seasonal.

We booked this restaurant due to its convenient location, as we had a show at the Lincoln Center right after dinner. It’s on the same block and only a couple hundred feet away from the doors of the theater. When we checked in, we were asked if we were trying to make a particular show time so they could try to accommodate that as best as possible. We allowed 2.5 hours when choosing our reservation time so it wasn’t an issue, but this would be a very welcome part of the experience for those who might be running on a tighter timeline. As it turned out, we had an extra hour to spare after we left the restaurant. With this extra time before our show, we took a stroll down to Venchi, a chocolatier and gelato establishment about 4 blocks away that I highly recommend. I had the wagyu strip loin, which was served with a very tasty green peppercorn sugo and potato cakes. They don’t have a kids menu per se, but they had options readily available. My 7 year-old son ended up going with the butter and cheese pasta. I definitely recommend this for a wonderful upscale pre-show dining spot.
