What People Say

Guests on TripAdvisor and OpenTable rave about the beautiful design and the “outdoor garden oasis” feel, even in the middle of Tribeca. The seasonal menu, especially the market vegetables and house-made pastas, gets frequent praise. Many note that it’s a “hidden gem” with a quiet, upscale vibe that’s still welcoming. The cocktails and wine list also earn high marks, especially for pre-show sipping.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the menu, while thoughtful, is on the pricier side, especially for larger groups. Others note that while service is generally great, it can be a bit slow on busy weekend nights—something to keep in mind if you’re on a tight concert schedule.
