Description

Operating in Murray Hill since 1977, the restaurant serves traditional mains like veal with almond sauce and veal cordon bleu alongside its seafood. The table-side paella service is a signature touch, where staff portion it directly from a large pot, offer refills, and pack up what is left. While the presentation of some dishes has drawn mixed reviews, the attentive, old-school hospitality remains a consistent draw.
