This restaurant is romantic as described, but it is a little too dark and too crowded. We were practically shoulder to shoulder with the couple next to us. We were seated upstairs, would recomend being seated in the main dining room. We went there for our 5th anniversary trip to NYC from CA. The service is impeccable, and they did provide us with plenty of extras, knowing that it was our anniversary. The tasting menu was good, but nothing surprising like Commanders Palace in Las Vegas or New Orleans' tasting menu. Auquavit's food is much better and more surprising and would recomend them over OIBL, TIBS. Dessert was excellent.
Pros: service, food ok, dessert
Cons: , old, nothing surprising
