We had an absolutely incredible experience at The Halston. The food was truly exceptional, every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and clearly prepared with care. You can tell they take pride in every detail.

The service made the night even better. Max was phenomenal, attentive, professional, and completely on top of everything throughout our entire dining experience. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and made the evening seamless and enjoyable.

Gianni was outstanding. From the moment we walked in, he made us feel right at home. His warmth, hospitality, and genuine care for his guests are unmatched. He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and taken care of. He is absolutely the main reason we’ll be coming back.

Highly recommend! This place delivers on food, service, and atmosphere in every way.

The food here was phenomenal but the way the place is run needs improvement. NYE pre fixed menu $99/person was a great deal that was supposed to include DJ and champagne toast. Unfortunately the place was so extremely overbooked that the DJ didn’t start when he was supposed to, dining tables filled the dance floor while people waited at the bar. We actually left and came back because most places required pre-purchased tickets. Champagne toast never happened. Workers and customers were all complaining. The next day I notice an email from opentable that my reservation was cancelled. Contacted the restaurant and a lovely girl Luciana advised me that she would have her manager reach out to me but yet left with no phone call for resolution. I would think a place of this caliber would take pride in their reputation with customers. It’s disappointing. Especially when the food is superb.

Joined a group of friends to celebrate a party for this week’s past boozie brunch. The Halston is a beautiful restaurant, with a gorgeous bar, sushi bar, and spacious floor plan.

Our table ordered a number of appetizers ranging from the lolly pop chicken, tuna tartare, clams casino, oysters, and more. Accompanied by assorted drinks like the refreshing pear mimosa, classic mimosa, cocktails, new in fashion (unfavorable twist on an old fashion?), and a crisp glass of a draft blue moon.

The girls and I even took a moment to have it out on the dance floor prior to our entrees arriving, including avocado toast, chicken ‘n waffles, lobster roll, eggs Benedict, and sushi.

Unfortunately, my husband and I didnt quite enjoy how loud the music for brunch was being played, despite being sat furthest away from the DJ. Due to the volume, it was quiet hard to hear each other and the server, who in which I often struggled to call over to be hear.

There was also quite difficulty from our server and the manager to have our check split since we needed to leave earlier than the rest of our party.

We frequent the Anthony Scotto restaurants in which we personally favorite Rare650, our little brother preferring One10, and I dine at Insignia with my corporate friends.

I wouldn’t mind giving the Halston another try on another night instead of the boozy brunch, though, first impressions weren’t as expected.

Thank you for your time and service.

Went here for New Year’s Eve with a 10:00 PM reservation. We arrived at 9:40 PM and checked in right away but were simply told to wait—no explanation or updates. Other guests arriving were told they would receive a text when their table was ready. We waited right by the host stand so we wouldn’t miss anything.

It took over an hour and multiple check-ins with the host before we were finally seated. We hadn’t eaten all day because we planned to have dinner here and ring in the New Year. We were seated at a very small corner table. Thankfully, bread arrived within five minutes.

We started eating right away but had to stop because no water had been brought to the table, making it difficult to eat. We then waited again just to receive menus. After placing our order, we noticed a table that was seated 15 minutes after us, with the same waiter, received their food before we did.

Our appetizers finally arrived at 11:40 PM, and our entrées came at 12:30 AM—already well into the new year. The entrée was supposed to come with mashed potatoes, but no sides were served. When we asked our server, he told us to wait because they were “coming.” After waiting some more and asking again, we were informed that they had run out of our sides and we needed to choose a different one. At that point, we couldn’t wait any longer and ended up finishing our entrées without any sides.

Dessert was an ice cream sundae, but the brownie pieces were rock hard—we almost broke our teeth. We were never offered coffee, tea, or anything else. The check was simply dropped at our table.

To make things worse, hats, tiaras, and champagne were given to other tables for the New Year celebration, but our table was completely missed. We had to ask for the hats ourselves and were never offered champagne.

We have dined here before when it was Bijou, and it was a great experience. Unfortunately, Halston was a complete disappointment—especially for New Year’s Eve. The restaurant was extremely disorganized and clearly overbooked.

We honestly would have had a better experience at Olive Garden or Outback Steakhouse. This was a terrible way to ring in the New Year.

Just wrapped up our first experience at the Halston and will absolutely be return customers. the menu is extensive yet every option was delicious, with a great price fix 3-course option. We had the rib eye Oscar style, calamari, brownie desert and a remarkable sushi platter appetizer. The atmosphere was upbeat, clean and welcoming. Our waiter Kenny took excellent care of us, and manager Gianni went the extra mile to ensure we were having a 10/10 experience. Not to mention he’s an absolute stud. The Halston is one of the best restaurant experiences we’ve had on the Island.

We had dinner last night and I felt compelled to leave a review for our waiter, Dennis. He was absolutely fantastic. Dennis was incredibly efficient, attentive, and had such a fun, upbeat personality that made the whole experience even better. He made great recommendations, checked on us at just the right times, and truly enhanced our already delicious dinner.
We were a family of six, which can sometimes be a lot to manage, but Dennis handled everything flawlessly. He was organized, patient, and made sure everyone had exactly what they needed. Our drinks were always filled, our food came out smoothly, and he made each of us feel taken care of. His energy and friendly attitude truly elevated the entire dining experience.
It’s rare to come across service that stands out this much. Dennis is a huge asset to the restaurant, and there should definitely be more waiters like him. Thank you for making our night so enjoyable! We will definitely be back again and will without a doubt request Dennis as our waiter.

Celebrated my birthday dinner and again, as always, it was 10/10. Manager Gianni and server Kat go above and beyond to make your dining experience memorable. This is my go to restaurant for any special occasion or just getting together with friends. The food and service are above my expectations EVERY TIME. Shout out to the sushi chefs, they are so creative! Not only delicious and so fresh, but works of art! If you haven’t been here, you’re missing out.

I really enjoyed the overall experience here. Beautiful restaurant, trendy, well appointed, great food and drinks… There were a few misses… The wedge salad came out chopped, the dipping sauce for one of the apps came out after we were finished and the bronzino was not filleted. However with this said all dishes were delicious… The specially sushi roll was fresh and delicious, all fishes were cooked to perfection, the specially drink made at the table was fun and tasty and the desserts were terrific. We’d definitely return here.

It was my first time dining at The Halston. I know they’ve been open for a little while, but I was hesitant to go because I assumed it would be the same style of food as the previous restaurant, which I personally wasn’t too fond of. I am so glad I gave it a shot because I was truly blown away. Everything we ordered was excellent.I had the prime rib and lobster special and it was absolute perfection. As someone who frequently dines at steakhouses, I have pretty high standards . It was my first visit, but I will definitely be returning and hope it is just as good. It is absolutely worth giving a try.

ONLY LEAVING ONE STAR BECAUSE I CANNOT LEAVE ZERO!!!!
This experience at Halston’s was beyond disappointing.

We ordered the tomahawk steak, and it came out burnt and over-charred, with a strong burnt taste throughout. This wasn’t a “good sear” — the flavor was ruined, especially unacceptable for a steak at this price point.

When we addressed this with the first manager, Gianni, he was extremely dismissive. His response was, “Sorry you didn’t love it, I didn’t cook it,” and he walked away. No accountability, no effort to make it right, and an attitude that made us feel uncomfortable for even speaking up.

After that, we spoke to a second manager, Carlos, and the situation somehow got worse. Carlos was extremely rude and dismissive. Instead of trying to resolve the issue, he repeatedly emphasized that the only thing he could do was offer a $50 gift certificate for a future visit — which is pointless, because after this experience, there will never be a next time.

What was most shocking was his explanation for not coming to our table earlier. He said he didn’t approach us because “it was the other manager’s side” and that “it doesn’t look good to have two managers at the table.” That statement alone says everything. He was clearly more concerned with how it looked to other customers than actually fixing a guest’s bad experience or making things right.

At no point were we rude or demanding. We simply expected professionalism, empathy, and accountability. Instead, we were met with defensiveness, arrogance, and managers more focused on optics than hospitality.

For a restaurant that positions itself as upscale, this level of management behavior is unacceptable. Food issues can happen — but how management handles them is what defines a restaurant. Halston’s failed completely in that regard.

We will not be returning, and I would strongly caution others who expect respectful service and competent management.
