My wife and I were at least expecting a romantic dining experience, but even this one saving grace was lost between an unfriendly greeter, a haughty waiter, and an overly anxious busboy who kept circling every five minutes asking if we were done yet. On the other hand, the piano music was nice, and this helped me choke down an undercooked and overpriced piece of salmon.
The icing on the cake and why we will never recommend this place to anyone was the blatantly obvious service gap between first class regular customers and everyone else. Unless you're a regular, do yourself a favor and try any number of other vasatly better restaurants on the NYC dining scene. La Grenouille if you want to spend a little more, Raoul's or Cafe des Artistes are comparable price and much more romantic sans attitude.
Pros: Poor Service, Overpriced, Cramped Surroundings
Cons: Bad Waiter, Unfriendly Greeter, Below Average
