The food was amazing, and definitely the reason to come back! My party of 5 had one person with a ton of ingredient/diet restriction and this was managed fine, though another person asked for medium steak and received close to rare, as well as the incorrect side dish, initially. Nonbinary and gender-diverse persons take note: this is a *very* Old World European place -- only two restrooms (men/women), and the type of customers who look you up and down and snidely comment on whether they think you belong in that particular restroom ???? This could be avoided with signage or, better yet, a full conversion to gender-neutral restrooms. It might be an old place, but we're dining in 2022 in NYC! Vegetarian options: They exist! I didn't take note of which, but I trust it's in there. Dietary restrictions: I'm on the autoimmune protocol, a highly-restrictive elimination diet, and was able to be accomodated.

So it deserves to be forgiven to some degree for not understanding how to cook food and provide table service. But at $27 for a poorly executed hamburger, one needs to wonder if the people patronizing this restaurant are too lazy to go someplace further away or simply enjoy the abuse of eating here? My medium rare burger came out well-done. After searching for a server to point out the kitchen’s error, the usual “how is everything?” server check-in that would be normal in even a Times Square tourist trap being much too much to expect from this poor example of fine-dining, I finally got out of my seat to flag down a server. They flagged down another server. After showing this staff member the dark brown meat in the center of the burger, he went off to get the manager. After explaining for the third t
