“ We had a relatively big group for dinner. The restaurant was very patient with all our requests v before the dinner. We had the prix fixe menu and all the guests appreciated the food. The service was impeccable. ”
“ Elegant dining, live jazz trio, stupendous views of Central Park and Broadway. Dishes plated and presented quite artfully. Creative cocktails carefully crafted. A real gem. ”
“ My wife & I loving dining with a view. Robert is now an added favorite under that category. Located on the 9th floor above the Museum of Art & Design, as the elevator doors open you are already inside of the L-shaped colorful restaurant. The wine collection and floor-to-ceiling windows immediately catch your attention as they provide a perfect view of Columbus circle. TIP: Reservations can be made online, but if you call them directly you can request a window seat and they will guarantee it. We had an early dinner (5pm) before a show and the restaurant was not full. There were small children in the restaurant, so I would say it’s family-friendly. Classic jazz played at a low level where all could have conversation. There is also a baby grand piano in the restaurant and they have live music on certain nights. Service was top tier. Glass never empty. Used plates were cleared quickly. All that should be expected of a high end restaurant in this neighborhood. Management checked on us and the chef sent our table complimentary Tomato Gazpacho as well as Tiramisu. Both delicious. Which leads me to the food... Everything was fresh, creative & very good. Burrata, crab cake, wild bass & risotto. I felt the risotto portion was rather small. Time spent was just over an hour as we enjoyed the views of Columbus Circle and the southwest corner of Central Park. Service was fast and we would definitely return. Probably after dark to enjoy a different view. ”
“ WOW. What else is there to say about the absolute best dining experience? We celebrated our anniversary here and it did not disappoint. It was easy to get to, the views of Central Park were breathtaking, the food was the absolute best, the prices were great for the level of service and atmosphere provided... We just had the best time. It was awesome watching the sunset over a romantic meal in NYC with a pianist playing lovely music. His musicianship doesn't go unnoticed. High quality for the price. Highly recommend reservations in advance, especially when you want to sit next to the window. I will recommend this restaurant to the ends of the earth. ”
