Best restaurant in NYC. True farm-to-table. Chef goes to get local ingredients every morning with a wheelbarrow. I have many food sensitivities so they catered items on and OFF the menu to accommodate. Servers are top-notch as well. Book well in advance for restaurant section. There is a bar section but with a different menu/limited food items.
