The meal and experience was truly top notch. We ordered the homemade pappardelle with short ribs and burrata - excellent! We also got bone-in rib eye, filet mignon, hash browns, sautéed broccoli - everything was delicious and seasoned perfectly. For dessert, the caramel toffee cake was divine! The entire staff was friendly, attentive and gave sound recommendations on the menu. We really appreciated how well they knew the flavor profiles of every dish. I will definitely be back soon!

First time dining at this establishment. First, a big thank you to the reservation staff that allowed us to add another person to our original reservation for 4, even though the Open Table system told us we would have to change the time of our reservation to a different time that would have been untenable. It benefitted us and certainly benefitted the restaurant, which would have lost our business otherwise. Food was very fine. Pear salad, calamari, French onion soup and spicy tuna appetizers were very fine - especially the fish. Porterhouse for 3, special pistachio-crusted halibut and chicken parm also were much enjoyed. Fried onions were terrific. Creamed spinach and truffle fries were enjoyed by some of us. And for dessert - a caramel cake special was marvelous, and chocolate chip gelato. All in all a very fine meal. Too bad the city of Rye makes us pay for parking. But not the restaurant's fault. Look forward to returning.

Our food was delicious and the service was quick except when we arrived. Arrived 5 minutes before our reservation time and had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. Overall, would go back again.

This is my favourite steak resturant in all of NY. Unfortunately the dinning room has really poor acoustics so the noise is too loud to even hear the person beside me.

Everything from the food, ambiance and menu were very solid and a fair value. Nothing mind-blowing. Service was excellent.

We were referred to this restaurant while visiting and it was fantastic. We had a Fried Burrata app, a pasta dish, a steak and chicken. We shared everything family style. We also had the Toffee Cake which was insanely good. We enjoyed everything but the Pasta w the Short Rub Ragu was my personal favorite. We will definitely be going back and the service was excellent.

We were a party of three, visiting for the first time. My mom had the Linguine Frutti di Mare and loved it. My husband had the Pork Chop Campagnola which was fine, not a pork chop, but sliced boneless pork .... which was supposed to come with cottage fries but did not and when we aked about it, our server came over and pointed to his dish and said "there they are" and none of us saw anything!!! Lastly, I had the Branzino which was also seasoned nicely. The service was just average, we did have to ask for our water glasses to be refilled. We may go back sometime in the future, but would try other restaurants first.

The appetizers and main courses are top notch! The raw bar is excellent! Just get there earlier if you don't have reservations. The place gets filled up quickly! Highly recommend this outstanding place!

We had an amazing night. Nick, our server, went above and beyond. We came back two weeks in a row and he remembered us and greeted us with a warm welcome! His service was above and beyond. Not only was the food great, we would come back because Nick was an amazing waiter. The bar also made amazing martinis. We will be returning soon!
