Fresh seafood specials like swordfish and lobster ravioli meet warm service at this polished spot near Times Square.
Description




Set at a busy Manhattan crossroads, the restaurant balances an elegant dining room with the bustling energy of a tourist hub. The kitchen pairs its seafood focus with a mix of cuisines, offering dishes like blue crab fish cakes alongside pasta bolognese. While some find the experience unmemorable for the price point, others appreciate the accommodating staff, who have been known to proactively split shared specials onto separate plates. Keep in mind that the restrooms are shared with the adjacent hotel and do not match the standard of the dining room itself.
