Profile

New Yorkers may agree on very little, but this pricey classic gets a landslide vote for New York's most romantic dining experience. Sit in what was once Aaron Burr's carriage house—surrounded by flowers, warmed by dual fireplaces, lulled by the mellow stylings of the resident pianist—and you may wish you had a ring in your pocket. If you can tear your attention away from your date, you'll find that the famed beef Wellington is fine, as are the other French and American standards on the prix fixe menu. The service, however, can be a bit cool.

Prix-Fixe

Three-course dinner, $78; seven-course tasting menu, $95; seven-course tasting menu paired with wine, $150

Note
À la carte dining is possible only at the bar and generally only on weekday evenings

Recommended Dishes

Beef wellington. Prix fixe menu, $78 per person

This is truely one of the most romantic spots in NY. My wife and I celebrate many special occassions, as well as just stopping by for a drink at the bar to enjoy the ambiance. We have been dining here for the last 7 years and ,except during a hiatas when they changed Chefs in 2008, we still love it. The new Chef is marelous and One if by Land elevates to the top of the list agin. Although coming all the way from California to sample the menu is not as often as it used to be, this restuarant is worth the flight.

1) Three hours for three courses is too long. 2) The clientele was mostly old people, or young people trying to act old. 3) The food was boring. Brief glimpses of inspiration, but largely flat. A girl seated adjacent to us actually fell asleep. I'm not even joking. By the end of our meal, we were struggling, too.
