"We had a group of six adults and two kids and went early on a Saturday evening. We ordered for the kids first and their food came relatively quickly, but we adults waited a good hour for our food after it was ordered -- even though the restaurant didn't appear overly crowded.

That said, the food was great and exceeded expectations. We were just not impressed with the service and it appears the restaurant goes with a minimal staff that is overstretched."

"Like the place a lot and the service was very good but my pasta was WAY overcooked. I was not a fan of that. They should work on that a bit because it's a large pleasant space."

"the most disappointing food experience we have ever had in new York. Service sloppy beyond measure- eg soup spilled by waiter into water glass and left, wine was corked and waiter refused to taste as he had " gum" Jean Georges should not be putting his name ot this establishment, it seriously conpromises his brand"

"Very charming, date night spot! Excellent wine list and lots of pizza choices. Not a lot of entree options other than pizza and lasagna, so definitely go for the pizza! I had the Rucola and it was delicious!"
