Caroline Schulweis: Great sushi, fried rice, and skirt steak. The strawberry cheesecake dessert is very unique and great to share with a group.
David Kaplan: Get the chilled lobster and wasabi... and the chef’s choice sushi. The pork belly and shrimp fried rice we’re perfect. This place has not received its due in major reviews.
Jastine Kho: Excellent spot to take someone if you want to impress them. Swanky but not stuffy. Great service too !

Kourosh Behnam: Great place for pastry. I wish the coffee was just as good. The creme brûlée was a bit eggy. One of the best tiramisu I have ever had.
Serious Eats: A small bakery with some excellent pastries. Don't miss the fresh croissants.
Zayed Khan: One of the better pains au chocolat I've had in NYC. Buttery w/o being heavy, perfectly flaky, and a healthy amount of filling (double chocolate rolls: rich and not overly sweet).
