Food was good (simple but well executed) - I didn’t find anything special in the menu. What we ate as well was just fine… but I felt service was a bit lacking (took them a while to come to our table ask about drinks, then came very fast and a lot of times to ask about what we wanted to eat… took them a while to identify the drinks we’re finished and ask if we wanted more… took a while to bring bread - which we wanted to eat with the burrata…) - maybe it played a role the way we were dresses: post-workout, tired, full of bags… but it’s summer and we were in the balcony so… we didn’t care much about how we’re dressed. But the overall experience was not bad. I just don’t know if I’d ever come back.

Service was great! Careful, tip was included in the bill. The food for us depended on what you ordered. Unfortunately I didn’t make photos os all 7 dishes ordered (we were 7). Beef Parmeggiana was good. The Emporium Steak was perfectly cooked as requested, which is a plus. The meat came already cut, which among us is something controversial. We’re used to having it served whole. But as we are in a different country, we accepted that maybe people do things here different. There was another steak that we ordered that was not soft but the side dishes and the total amount of meat that came were enough to feed 2 people. I wish someone had told us that, it would have helped us to not waste so much food and maybe even order a dessert. I wonder if the side dishes were optional. Don’t remember have read that in the menu, but I could be wrong. The fried Cassava was fine. They have guaraná, which is a plus! Prices were ok for the location in NYC. Sure not the best Brazilian restaurant I’ve been but overall it was a good experience.

Positive points: it was opened for lunch before 13:30, which in Spain is not taken for granted. One of the attendants were very nice and understood/spoke some English. The food was good. We found place indoor but it was a rainy day and soon it would have no more place.
Negative points: one of the staff was not so friendly, made no effort to help us with the menu and just throw stuff on the table in a fast and rude way. This type of stuff I usually understand, as people sometimes have bad days. The place inside is very small. The menu could have better description of the dishes, it they are to share, if it’s individual, what are they made of… etc. Overall I recommend, if you are around and want to have decent food/drinks while visiting the museums/places nearby.

Good meeting point, Coop there is big and good. Inside, we can bring recycling-products and others like batteries and filters. Elevators work fine.
