My previous move (not with Flat Rate) was terrible! Not only did they increase their rate once my stuff was all loaded on the truck but they damaged and lost a bunch of my stuff. I filed a claim and was awarded a settlement, but by that time the company was already bankrupt and out of business. Sooo, I was very skeptical of moving companies but went with Flat Rate based on a friend's recommendation. I dealt with Craig Yettra who was EXTREMELY helpful. He was friendly and professional and answered all my paranoid questions with remarkable patience and understanding. He assured me that my rate would indeed be flat, and it was! The crew who did the packing and moving (Sam and Sophian, I think) were also amazing- very fast, friendly, and careful. I could not have been more pleased with this move and will use Craig and Flat Rate for every move I have going forward!
Pros: Excellent customer service (thanks to Craig)
Cons: NONE, honestly!

Making a reservation at this restaurant was almost as hard as trying to score Bruce Springsteen concert tickets. I called exactly one (1) month before the day of my wife's birthday (when their reservation lines opened) and got a busy signal for almost half an hour.
On the night of our dinner we were glad we weren't late. The lower level dining room was packed. I felt bad for those who were seated there because people waiting to be seated were almost standing on top of them. The upper level where we sat was beautiful tthough small.
The food and wine were excellent. The thing that amazed my wife and I the most was the service. I have never in my life seen a more attentive staff. We never had to ask for refills on water or wine, our questions were politely answered and our food was brought on time. To my surprise the bill wasn't as much as I had expected. We made sure the tip reflected the service. This is by far the best restaurant we have ever been to.
Pros: Excellent Service
Cons: Reservations hard to place

Seriously. This was one of my favorite dining experiences worldwide. I think because I like good food but not stuffy places, this was a perfect match for me. We sat in the front room within the buzz of the lively bar scene and enjoyed 4 courses all of which were delicious. Our server couldn't have been more down to earth and friendly even bringing a complimentary "desert bite" for me when my friend ordered and I didn't. Kudos to Danny Meyer for creating restaurants with great food without the "snobbery"!
Pros: Celery Root Soup, Smoked Trout, Seabass and Perfect Service
Cons: It's 2000 miles from my house!

More 12 days ago
Using Manor for my last move was a rare experience. Not only for the moving industry, but for the service industry in general. Especially now days where a genuinely good service is very hard to find. Manor takes moving to another level and creates a league of its own in the moving industry, where anyone with a truck thinks he can call himself a moving company. Dealing with Manor moving was a pleasure and a seamless experience from the very initial step of scheduling the move, to the very end of it. From the very first phone call you realize you are dealing with professionals, which makes the moving experience almost stress-free. The day of the move was phenomenal. Not only were the movers on time, but they were early. Still they called me before coming up to my apartment to confirm it was OK. The movers were professional, courteous, patient and very efficient. They took care of everything (and I mean everything: they did not even let me cover the mattress spring box with the bed skirt, but insisted on doing it themselves). They were very careful in carrying the big furniture to make sure they don't damage the walls or the furniture. They did not drag any furniture or boxes on the floor but gently placed them where i told them to. They were extremely patient and were happy to try various furniture arrangements until I was sure i got the right layout. They did not leave until they made sure i was happy with where everything was (boxes and furniture). I have never written a review before since it always seemed too time consuming and useless. However, after experiencing the difference with Manor, I just had to share it with NYC, where people are on the move all the time. Manor is not just about the the move. it's about the solution....
Pros: everything:professionalism in servise and moving
Cons: none

I am writing this letter in order to lavish high praise to the staff of Imperial Moving Company.
I recently faced a very difficult moving situation (I literally did NOT know where I was going to be moving to until 4 days ahead of the scheduled move date) and I found that booking my move with Yuval couldn't have been any
better than it was. He was very patient with me as we walked through the items that needed to be moved, and we went through a variety of scenarios
where everything would end up safely moved in the end. I found him to be very responsive with regards to staying in communication with me, as well as
the condo management company where I was moving from, and as a result, I was easily able to secure the appropriate moving permits.
The day of the move, the men arrived on time and I met with Juan, the foreman for this job. He was very mild, stress-free and walked through each
of the rooms with me ensuring that he knew what would be packed, moved and what would stay.
Following this, it was like watching an amazing ballet of workers. These boys had the remainder of my stuff not only packed, but IN THE TRUCK within an hour's time. They were phenomenal with the care of the piano I have had since birth (and did I say these guys are STRONG?!), and my antique armoire
and table.
These guys further went above and beyond as they then had to go to Manhattan (from the Bronx) to drop-off my king-sized bed- and they delivered AND
placed it, as well as then picked-up a daybed frame and mattress. They then came back to the Bronx to load all the stuff into the new apartment.
One of the things I appreciated most at this point was that I was asked where everything should go, and many of the boxes were even un-packed for me
during this time. I have never experienced such complete execution of a move like this.
Not a single, valuable thing was damaged in my move, and, at the end of the day, I found that the price I paid was not only fair, but I felt I had received far more value than I would normally expect from such a service.
Having just separated from my husband and being a single mother of a 2-year. old child, receiving service of this caliber truly made ALL THE DIFFERENCE
between having this transition become a nightmare or a brand new beginning.
This is my second time using Imperial Moving Company, and I will NEVER move
myself again as a result. These boys are top-notch and have the concept of customer service down-pat.
I will be recommending them to anyone who needs to move.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

Katz's has got to be the very best delicatessen in the world. The pastrami is absolutely phenomenal. I've never had better. The hot dogs are absolutely amazing, as is the kielbasa, knishes and sour pickles. The food is top notch ... out of this world. The staff knows their stuff and the owners are professional and on the ball. Katz's is old New York at it's authentic and contemporary best. There's simply none better.
Pros: Pastrami, Hot Dogs, Kielbasa, Knishes ... you name it
Cons: None to speak of

I HAD A PRETTY BIG MOVE LAST MOVE OF MY 3 BEDROOM APT AND I HAPPEN TO SEE TLC ON GOOGLE AND CALLED THEM UP. THE PERSON THAT PICKED UP THE PHONE WAS VERY HELPFUL IN GIVING ME INFO & EVEN SENT SOMEONE OVER TO ACCURATELY TELL ME HOW MUCH IT WAS GOING TO BE.THE PRICES WERE NOT OUT THE ROOF LIKE THE OTHER COMPANIES I CALLED. THANKFULLY THE MOVERS GOT TO MY PLACE ON TIME AND MOVED ALL MY THINGS SAFELY & WITH CARE. WHICH IS WHY I AM TAKING TIME OUT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THEM.
Pros: FRIENDLY, HARD WORKERS
