I went to this place with a group of friends and I wasn't expecting much given the location, but wow this place really impressed me. It impressed me enough that I came back the following evening to try more food before writing this review.
The chicken livers were amazing, the crabcakes great & full of crabmeat, the lamb meatballs were perfectly cooked, and the bread pudding is incredible! Even the brussels sprout dish was good and I don't like brussels sprouts. The beets were fresh and perfectly cooked, and a huge serving. I look forward to returning to try more of the dishes, nothing was disappointing. This place has a great chef.
Parking is easy here, there are usually spots open on East 185th and the street is very well lit. The interior was nice too but that's not why am returning -- I want more this food.
Maybe I shouldn't write reviews when I'm hungry.
