Absolutely loved everything about this place! Me and two friends from NH went to NYC for the Overnight Walk for Suicide Prevention and this place was recommended by someone else staying in the hotel. We were fish out of water but the general manager (Sean?) came over and made us feel like family and instantly relaxed. Our waiter (Peter) came over and was also so nice getting our orders and answering our endless questions. The food was outstanding. I just wish I could have everything because it was tough to decide. The service was phenomenal where our water glasses were never empty, straw wrappers were taken off the table before I even noticed, food was hot and the waiters worked like a team where it is a small space. It was so good we ended up going back the next day. Highly recommend! The only thing was I felt bad for the waiters wearing long sleeved shirts in the heat.

The location is good because it's next to the subway. The food is not salty or too oily, which is really good.

Food was great and the service was very attentive. There was no air conditioning and it's very tight quarters, so dress appropriately for the temperatures in the summer months.
