One If by Land, Two If by Sea was absolutely spectacular. Walking in felt like stepping into a storybook—the soaring ceilings, glowing chandeliers, and beautiful holiday décor created the most magical atmosphere.
The food was outstanding from start to finish. The escargot was perfectly prepared, the Beef Wellington was exceptional, the French onion consommé was rich and comforting, and the chocolate soufflé was the perfect ending. Every dish felt special. They offer both a three-course prix fixe and a seven-course tasting menu, which makes the experience feel even more elevated. Yes, it’s expensive—but absolutely worth it for a special occasion or a truly memorable night out. The pianist sat right in front of us and played so gently it felt like the music was floating in the background—elegant, intimate, and unforgettable. The service was impeccable, the cocktails were just as wonderful as the food, and the entire evening felt incredibly romantic. A truly unforgettable dining experience and easily one of the most romantic restaurants in New York.

I had the pleasure of taking my wife here for our anniversary, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. From the moment I made the reservations, the staff graciously accommodated all my requests. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted at the door and assisted with our coats, setting the perfect tone. The atmosphere was enchanting, and the chef’s curated courses were nothing short of amazing, with outstanding food selections. The customer service (our waiter Albert was great) and hospitality were impeccable throughout. No complaints whatsoever—just pure delight for the evening. If you’re planning on visiting there’s a parking lot right across the street

I booked this for our 10 year anniversary, talk about romantic, candle light dinner. The staff was right there for every move, cleaning up, taking dishes. We did the 3 course meal choice

French soup, salmon, chocolate
Thise were my 3 along with an “Oldest Fashioned”

Every course we had was simply delicious. A lot of care goes into plating the dish and the presentation when serving it

This is a 5 Star experience with a 5 Star price…worth every penny

SUPER OVERPRICED!
I overall like the restaurant! Dim lighting, piano, tables are so nice. Price is super high though! They force you to order 3 course meal which is 160$ for each person and at the end of the night we ended up paying 500 dollars for 2 people. I think it’s way too much for the food, service and experience we’ve received. It’s super overpriced.And our waiter smelled stinky.. he definitely needed a shower..unfortunately.

Probably the most romantic restaurant we have been to in NYC. Recommend asking for the window seats overlooking the garden – so pretty. The food was good – we went for the 3 course fixed menu ($165 each) but the beef wellington was so large. Felt like we were paying for such a unnecessary portion that we ended up leaving half which felt so wasteful. We weren’t coming away raving about the food and as everywhere in NYC it was expensive. You are more paying for the vibes and how romantic it is. There is live music which really added to the ambience. The service was good but felt over the top with multiple servers per table.

My husband celebrated my birthday at One if by Land, Two if by Sea, and it felt like discovering a secret tucked away in the heart of New York.

The location itself is so mysterious — hidden down a quiet cobblestone street, behind a beautiful old facade that feels like a portal to another world. Inside, the candlelight, soft piano music, and garden views created a setting that was intimate, elegant, and absolutely timeless.

We were seated at the perfect corner table near the piano bar. To my left, a beautiful garden view framed the evening with even more charm. It felt so private and romantic — as if the city had disappeared for a night, just for us.

The food was exquisite. Every dish was gorgeous and full of flavor. The Beef Wellington was divine — truly one of the best we’ve ever had. And the champagne? Effortlessly luxurious and so celebratory.

The service was flawless, warm, and genuinely thoughtful. They made my birthday feel incredibly special, with every detail handled with care.

A magical evening in a place that feels hidden, timeless, and full of love. Truly one of the most romantic dining experiences in the city — or anywhere

Such an incredible evening at an incredible restaurant! The staff, atmosphere, food, wine and cocktails are all perfection. Our waiter Michael was so kind and attentive to us. He even went above and beyond to give us a little tour of some of the other spaces in the venue. Kirk was so knowledgeable with the wine pairing which made the whole experience extra special and Nicky was delivering the best bread we’ve ever had with a smile on his face. We felt so welcomed and warm at this restaurant. Absolutely recommend. We can’t wait to go back!!

My husband and I went back for our anniversary. We had one of our first dates here 30+ years ago. Food, service and atmosphere still terrific! We had the chef’s menu which was a perfect tasting of their best dishes. You cannot eat here without having the beef Wellington!

One if by Land, Two if by Sea has a classy menu, a great history, and beautiful decor that makes it very romantic. I took my girlfriend there for our 3 year anniversary. The restaurant was gorgeous and the decor was perfect for those special photos. The dim lighting created a perfeambiance. The food was incredible. The food wine room upstairs is extraordinary. The only minor issue I encountered was with how small the menu was, at best you will feel satisfied after eating meal. I didn’t care because the food I ate was delightful.”
The dessert was special. This is definitely a place you will want to experience.
