Small Batch - (Near Garden City, NY)

5 /5 Thomas: Have not eaten here as I no longer live in the area. But I used to come here relatively frequently. I found some old pictures. The place has gotten to NYC price really . I always enjoyed eating here . The ambience is truly fantastic. The designer did a great job. Some things are better than others. But I will miss coming here every once in a while .

5 /5 Heidi Liou: Everything was fantastic. I would definitely recommend coming with friends, family, or a date. They do have some kind of happy hour but you have to sit at the bar. We sat outside because the weather was nice but there indoor seating is also a vibe (certain parts have natural lighting, the other parts are darker but have a view of the open kitchen). The salmon was cooked perfectly, I loved the char! The Caesar salad is quite “fishy” (it has anchovies that are soaked in lemon!) I personally liked it but just a word or caution if you’re not a fan of anchovies. Fried “hot” chicken was solid and if you chose potatoes as your side, you get a huge helping of potatoes. My friend got Bucatini and she said it was delicious. The strawberry rhubarb crisp was amazing and I would come back specifically for this. The vanilla bean ice cream on top is incredible and has a very strong vanilla bean flavor. I wonder if they sell pints of this?

2 /5 Isias: I usually don’t give any reviews that are critical, but I have to, for the better of their restaurant. Firstly, I ordered 2 starters, the Crispy Artichoke and the Caramelized onion dip. The crispy artichoke was borderline salty and was almost as if they soaked the artichoke in lemon. It was so salty till the point I have to drink water with ever bite. The caramelized onion dip is as alright. The dip was a bit too bland and the caramelized onions just tasted like sweated onions. The potato chips were also so thin that I could see my finger from the other side and was basically undippable. For the entrees, I ordered the broccoli pesto rigatoni and eggs Benedict. The broccoli pesto rigatoni was bland and it looked like baby food. The “pesto” tasted like boiled broccoli and pepper, the portion size was small, and the pasta was borderline edible. The only good thing I can say about the eggs Benedict was the egg. The sauce was way too thin and their “ham” looked more like roast beef. Overall I would never come back or recommend this to anyone.
