Reviews
We had a birthday dinner here and enjoyed it quite a bit. The place is small and cozy, giving you a romantic, intimate feel. The service was great and not to mention the rich wine list. The food could have been more intriguing, but we yet had a wonderful experience. This is a local spot everyone would like to have in their neighbourhood.
This is a hidden gem in Harlem. Food was DELICIOUS. We ordered steak tartare, liver, bucatini and the duck. The duck was melting in my mouth. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I will come back for sure!!
Finally stopped by Clay. We popped in around five and it wasn't too busy and we were able to get a seat outside with our dog! The service was great, and everyone was very attentive and kind. The Mocktail was not good at all but everything else was lovely. The food took quite a while but all of the food was good! Super fresh and the potatoes were excellent. The orange sauce was amazing we got an additional side of it! The patio is tucked away enough that you're not getting in the way being on the sidewalk. It's pretty pricey but overall it was good! Glad we stopped by!
Everything we had was delicious. I got the short rib bucatini and it was fantastic. Was flavorful and hardy, great for a cold day. Elaine got gnocchi that was textured and nuanced and delicious. Panama cotta was so yummy, not a single bit of it was left on my plate. Very much would recommend.
I had the beat salad for an Appetizer and it was amazing I got The burger for remain and it was really good. My friend had a cheese and meat platter and she loved it. Definitely a great local spot to come to in the neighborhood.
Great local spot with phenomenal hospitality. The food was delicious especially the pork belly appetizer. Management team was very engaging and accommodating to my out of town visit to Harlem. Special thank you to Nicole and Andrea for making my experience memorable. I’ll be back!
It's really nice spot low key and great for a date. I had the burger and it was good nothing out of the world my sister had the crab and it has a good taste but a fishy after taste but they do tell you before you order my friend had the braised rib pasta but I didn't like that at all we had the mushroom fritter and that was pretty tasty but the sauce was great.
We just ate here and it was delicious!
Love the duck leg and steak we had medium done. The caramelized onions pure sauce that came with the steak 🥩 was a delightful little surprising treat. I love caramelized onions.
The duck leg was tender ( I literally cut it with the butter knife :)! Delicious!). Duck is though and that's some mastering right there. It came with smoked Farrow and some soft and not chewy greens.
We tried few of the special spirits including a 1977 delicious wine. I was 2 years old when it was bottles. It's probably carrying my childhood spirit inside :)).
