What diners are saying
Diners praise this Union Square spot for its creative, seasonal menu featuring inventive combinations and lovely presentation. Standout dishes include the rosemary focaccia, addictive gem lettuce salad, delicate tilefish curry, and unique deer meat, though some guests preferred the halibut with lemon risotto. While the romantic, Parisian-style interior and lovely back garden create a charming ambiance, reviewers note that service can be slow due to understaffing, despite the staff being kind and attentive.
