Happened to be in Manhattan with me niece to have breakfast… Awesome food and the staff is very nice (thank you Jeanette!)
Another great visit to MHK and the Chef. The s'mores hot chocolate is 🔥
Wonderful food and service. We drove up from Lawrence and will definitely make a special visit next time we are here. The food was delicious.
