Every time that i eat here, i love it more, exlent steaks, one of the best Cream Burlee i ever had, highly recomended.
New Year's Eve, busy, appetizers lacking flavor, however Chilean Sea Bass and lamb shank were wonderful. Would go back less busy evening.
The filet mignon couldn’t have been cooked anymore perfect. A true 10. You know what else was a 10? The service. The waiter and hostess staff was incredibly friendly, not over bearing, patient and helpful. A real understated neighborhood gem.
Just moved it the area so it was our first time here. Very attentive service and wine list was great. Food was good too although it wasn’t superb. Oysters weren’t their specialty so they were disappointing in variety, size and way they serve them. Salad was great. Hostess was really nice and welcoming.
Said was great. Crabcakes were amazing. The better half ordered halibut and I had steak fries. The food came out hit. Fully stocked bar. A wider variety of deserts would be great. Good atmosphere.
We ordered take out here because of COVID. Prior to that, we’ve dined in and always had a great experience. The food is always perfect and steaks cooked as ordered.
Happy to report the take out results are much the same as dine in. Steaks, cooked perfectly. Appetizer of calamari was fried very well and didn’t have any sogginess from being put into a take out container. Salad was great as well; not soggy or wilted. Service at the take out window was great as well. They even offered me hand sanitizer after signing the check.
Give take out a try, you won’t be disappointed.
Best dining experience on the Upper East Side hands down. This place has an Old World New York feel something that's been missing Lately from the area. It's a family-run business and a manager is always on staff. Dining here is always a treat, food is always fantastic and the bartenders really know how to make a good drink. The owners walk around checking in on you making sure everything is up to your standard and once you've gone a few times they remember you. You become a part of the family so to speak.

Had the scallops and shrimps in potato nest. Very hearty and filling. Scallops were cooked nicely and shrimps were big and juicy too. So that plus the sauce and the fried potato sticks - omg. My sister had the shrimp scampi. Def on the heavier side too but I loved it. Scampis tend to be too light for my liking. They def used a lot of tomato so it was light but at the same time pretty heart and filling. Overall I loved the good. I came in and the bartender smiled so brightly I became even happier cause of him! Service was good. There weren't many people but still. I'd come again for sure. Upscale without the fuss.
We had an incredible time at this neighborhood icon. We've been enjoying the food here for nearly twenty years now. Always consistently good, both service and food. Niko is the quintessential restaurateur! We will continue coming back, again and again.

The staff was extremely kind and attentive, they made sure we heard all the options available including off menu specials. The atmosphere is very quaint and definitely a vintage vibe in here but a very chic and scenic spot. The food was very good and craftfully prepared. There is large regard for service here and the manager is present and attentive to how his guests are being treated. We had the pleasure of having Hugo as our waiter and he was just wonderful. Extremely detailed and mindful, his timing was perfect and he was genuinely interested in whether or not we were enjoying ourselves. Definitely deserves a shoutout. My only critique, and this could be coincidence, is that all of the guests that were of diverse backgrounds were neatly tucked away into the back in their charming booth areas, and not offered a seat at the front in the window side tables they have. Granted tonight there were many couples which may be why they tucked us away but even after asking for a window seat we were politely advised that those tables were reserved for 4, but there were plenty of parties of two that were white seated at the front. So if this was a coincidence then I would say that overall we had a good experience, but if this was intended on purpose then I would encourage the management to be more forthcoming and placing all their paying guests in the front so they do not feel undervalued.
