Horrible food! I dine out 6 nights a week in NYC and this is the 1st time I have participated in restaurant week. I was surprised to read some of the glowing reviews for this place when my experience was so bad. The shrimp cocktail was very poor quality and the lobster was awful - the clams and mussels were so dry so I didn't eat them. Even the little pc. of corn on the cob was overcooked and dry. If I were at a different restaurant or it wasn't restuaruant week, I would have returned all of it. The only reason I didn't is b/c I was out w/ a few people that I hadn't seen in a while so I didn't want to make a scene. Although I understand that the food is mass produced for these 2 weeks, it's not like the restaurant is giving it away for free. After wine/tip, it was still $100 per person. Total waste of money.
Cons: Poor quality food
