I went to this restaurant for the first time, I enjoyed the food very much, my daughters and I were seated immediately, our server offered water right away, was very pleasant, and knowledgeable, we were offered house specials, wine list, she took our drink order, came back for our food order, everything timely, the restaurant was crowded, but nonetheless she was courteous and prompt, the manager came by to ask if all was ok, and everyone around us seemed content and I actually heard people next to us compliment on their food choice. A nice little cozy place, with excellent service. I do not live in NY C, but I worked in NYC and I'm Brazilian, I've traveled to many countries, and the service you receive usually is according to the way you treat the people serving you!! Thumbs up to Brazil, Brazil
