Overall a good spot for a brunch. The ambiance is lovely as there was a piano player and the shades were up. We requested a seat by the window but they weren't able to accommodate which is no big deal, they were able to seat us one row away from the window and that was even better for me. I ordered the burrata and the cheeseburger. The yucca fries are unique in texture and satisfyingly crunchy. The bun on the cheeseburger was a lot so I opted to only eat half of it. The burrata was creamy and went well with the balsamic caviar. We ordered the mango coconut panna cotta as well which was divine, would go back there just for that. It was also beautiful to look at! One star off because the service was not great -- it took a very long time to place our order for our entrees and our dessert, which kept us there for 2 hours. Servers themselves were great.

Good food, well prepared. Great views (3 Weeks advanced reservation to get a window table but good views from many seats.

The service and staff were great. The food was mediocre at best. Bread rolls were like those you get at the old school Howard Johnson’s. Food was bland. Risotto tasteless. Seabass cooked well but bland. Gnocchi with pesto was fine. Hard to mess up burrata but the toast was over salted.

4.5 / 5.0 - My friends and I came here for brunch on Easter Sunday and were in for a fun surprise.Robert is on top of the Museum of Arts and Design, with impressive views of Columbus Circle and Central Park. We’d made reservations in advance but unfortunately were unable to sit by the windows with views. We still had a very enjoyable meal in this spacious and stylish restaurant.We ordered the Rigatoni ($25+), Lobster Roll ($21+) and Scrambled Eggs & Caviar ($28+). The complimentary basket of bread and muffins was a nice addition.The food was good, but the highlight for me was the festive atmosphere and Easter treats. They had a cotton candy stand, where they offered free cotton candy. And during our meal, an Easter bunny came around, waving and posing for photos.I’m not sure how they celebrate other holidays, but I would love to be back again for more unique experiences as well as the views.

This is one of my fave places in the city I take tourists here but I've also had dates, lunch with my mother etc. Now I will say - the food is not the absolute best in the world. No. But the ambience, the interior design, the music, the views, the crowd are all fantastic. And check out the bathroom in the back with a window. LOVE IT
Food is excellent (but children's menu very limited and not great, to be honest). But don't bother asking for a table with a good view. We booked almost one month ahead and added a note with that request only to be told upon arrival that all those tables had been fully booked at that time. Of course, they don't have an obligation to tell me, but it would only have been nice. I could easily have changed the booking to a different time. So, that knocks off some stars as the overall experience was disappointing.

Excellent food and service. Definitely will be back. Great atmosphere with sprawling views of Central Park accompanied by live piano. The dishes were creative and well portioned. Service was top-notch, and I found myself wanting for nothing. What an amazing place.

Breathtaking views. I went there for drinks and was very well accommodated. Great list of mocktails and alcool free wines if you are into that.
