Description



Within the airy, elegant dining room, Chef Hasan Karci delivers a menu focused on quality over quantity. The plates are flavor-forward without feeling overly heavy, ranging from a generously portioned filet mignon rossini to lobster pasta, octopus, and fresh tzatziki. To drink, there is a full bar shaking up specialties like a Fig Old Fashioned. Located a few blocks from the Rockefeller Christmas tree, the space balances its polished hospitality—complete with a coat check—with a relaxed, welcoming pace.
