Unfortunately for Easter Sunday it was extremely loud. There was a large party next to us and my mom who is elderly definitely felt like it was very loud and I agree. Food was mediocre for the extremely large price. The view was definitely amazing. Would go back for the French fries.

Overall:3.5 stars What I liked: The food was quite good. Great location. Good drinks and a nice overall vibe. What I didn’t like: Happy hour is listed on their website (5–7 PM), but when I initially asked about it, the server denied it. When I asked again and showed the website, the server seemed visibly annoyed. Despite the confusion around happy hour, it’s still a decent spot with good food and drinks.

First dining experience in NYC. Food was good but nothing to write home about. Asked for steak medium rare but was served medium well. They fixed this upon request but should not have been an issue
