As usual ( we visit from Australia) the food and service outstanding. We love the quiet elegant but not pretentious atmosphere of this quintessentially east cost American place

Pershing Square is a terrific place to dine.My friends and I find it very convenient, food is always great and servers are friendly and professional. French onion soup and Waldorf salad are favorites and its one of the rare restaurants that serve bellinis. I highly recommend Pershing Square.

They ignore your comments on your reservation- like we are celebrating a birthday. Why bother to have that option to complete
