Decent ambiance but for a “upscale” steak house, my NY Strip was poor quality meat. There was a lot of fat and the texture wasn’t the greatest. Not sure what grade they use, but I definitely expected better. The service and other dishes were as expected. I don’t see myself ever going back there. It was pretty crowded and I was surprised how cheap the menu items were. I expected higher prices based on location and the crowd. Perhaps you get what you pay for. In this place, this is true. Cheap cheap.

This is our go to restaurant. We have not had a bad meal at all here.
I believe I’ve tried just about everything on their menu. The owner Tony is such a great guy and the staff is friendly and very attentive.
I wish I’ve taken photos but I always dig in before I even think of taking a pic.
Their Caesar salad is one of the best I’ve eaten. Their steaks are nice cuts and cooked perfectly. Their braised short ribs are huge and tender as can be. Their scallops are always cooked perfectly.
You won’t be disappointed.

Rip off with an attitude:
I wish I read the restaurant reviews before we went to celebrate a birthday at this place.
We made reservations because the birthday boy wanted to try this restaurant instead of going to our favorite place: The Townhouse on on Church Street.
From the beginning it was clear that they don’t have their act together but we decided to stay and give them a chance.
Our waiter was so rude and had no experience at a so called 5 stars steak house with exorbitant prices.
They forgot to set a plate for one of us until we mentioned it to them.
The service was below mediocre and with an attitude.
The bus boy had no idea how to clear the dirty plates, he was reaching over us and knocking things to get cross to the other person plate.
We ordered a Caesar salad, horrible with the most disgusting cheese.
The chicken was dry, potatoes were overcooked and had terrible taste. Hardly any vegetables.
The sauted spinach and Broccoli rob had no flavor.
The seafood was drenched in butter and salt.
To top it off the cheese cake was like a brick and small piece.
The presentation was repulsive. The wine price was exorbitant.
I went to this restaurant because our friend wanted to support a new place in Greenwich, I wish we went to the Townhouse or elsewhere.
Save yourself from a horrible experience and a meal that isn’t even worth $50 for 3 people, let alone excess of $400.

Very pricey menu. Dining area very noisy, not sure why there is a TV monitor showing travel scenes. Service was good, food was not equal to the prices. Was very tempted to send my fish back as it was over cooked and I told the server that because we were a party of two I would not do that to my wife. Also it’s about 85 degrees in the dining room and very uncomfortable.

We had dinner for Mother’s Day at Marcelleria. We arrived around 6:30 and although the place was busy there were open tables so we were seated right away. It looked like a typical Saturday night attendance. After being seated, things went down hill. This place is considered a high end restaurant with prices to indicate such. Although the waiters were polite, the service was incredibly slow. We were not given menus right away. We had to ask for bread which came cold. We ordered our meals and waited!! And waited!! Our salads came after a half hour. Two salads were requested without blue cheese dressing and were served undressed. There was no offer of an alternative dressing and nothing was said about their coming without dressing. Additionally, the salads still had chunks of blue cheese on the top. You would think that not wanting blue cheese dressing would precipitate the notion of no blue cheese topping either!! Our steaks came at 8:00, an hour and a half after our arrival. More disappointment. The filet mignonette ($50) had to be returned twice because it was supposed to be done medium well and had remained rare until finally the third serving. The other steak order was a porterhouse for three. Although seared nicely on the outside the center was definitely raw not medium rare as ordered. Additionally much of it was not tender but quite “chewy”. This was a $180 steak! chewy!! We ordered sides which were less than generous. The creamed spinach was tasteless. They ran out of the asparagus and gave us broccoli rab, also flavorless. With wine and tip our bill was over $600 for five people. I just want to say, I am not opposed to spending money at a good restaurant. Being a cook I know what effort goes into putting together fine food. Only the wine was good. This restaurant is probably the worst experience I’ve had when dining out. No one in our party was satisfied. Go someplace else!!

Meh.
Excellent staff. Wanted sangria, which they didn’t have. Bartender came out to apologize and offered us an artisan cocktail that was good. Tried several appetizers for lunch. They were just okay. Meatballs were tasty, crabcake was dry and lacked flavor and sat on a thick mustard sauce. Calamari was bland and chewy. Tortellini soup was good. Might try again for a dinner.

Went for a private party, large group. You always expect subpar bulk menu items when there are more than 50 people but this place did not disappoint. From the appetizers, to the dinner, to the overall service. What a great spot! Highly recommended the salmon, ribeye, and bacon!

My wife took me here for my birthday dinner and I couldn’t have been happier with the choice. The ambiance, service, staff, and most importantly the food, were all spectacular. We got the burrata, meatballs, risotto, rib eye and home fries…all were amazing!
Great addition to the area.

Came here for dinner on a Saturday, we ordered the steak tartare , seafood pasta, and braised short ribs. The tartare was the worst I’ve ever had, it was basically an uncooked burger patty with some capers mixed in. Nothing prepared me for the short ribs though. It was so dry and utterly tasteless, I seriously believe they made beef stock with it and serve the leftover meat (charging $30 in the process). I cook short ribs at home all the time, I’ve never imagined short ribs can be so bad. The seafood pasta was okay.

Very disappointing experience. If the food is terrific, but the service is poor-I will still return to a restaurant- give them the benefit of the doubt -maybe it was just an “off” night. However, when the service is poor, the food is tasteless (and quite possibly defrosted and microwaved) and the Maitre’d rude… that is the trifecta of DO NOT BOTHER! Steak had no flavor, branzino was sent back because inedible, veal chop was chewy and tough. We have not eaten at their Pelham or Armonk locations- and since a “ fish stinks from the head down,” we will assume those restaurants suffer from the same deficiencies.
