I had the opportunity to enjoy The Highlawn as part of a team dinner. The atmosphere, service, and food are all top-of-the-line. They highlight their cocktails, and rightly so. I enjoyed a Sinatra, up, and it was just right. Our table enjoyed appetizers together, including meatballs and short rib. Really well-seasoned and tender. The wood fired filet is a treat, perfectly seared and cooked to the right temperature. Highly recommend. If you have the opportunity, take advantage of this wonderful place. It is choice.

One of my favorite bars. A lot of scheduled artist near the bar. You're always welcomed with a smile. The food is well seasoned and great presentation. Old school Upscale Resturant vibe. My go to is the mushroom pizza and a glass of champagne.

Had our anniversary dinner here. The service and view was unmatched. They gave us a nice card, free sparkling wine, free dessert, and sat us on a huge booth that sat 6 people. Two of us could sit comfortably facing the windows. Service was attentive and view was spectacular. As we were there for dinner, we could see the dusk and see lights coming on in NYC. As others have mentioned food was okay. Not great but also not too bad. Portions were overly generous. Some items were over salted. The pork belly was cooked dry early in the day and was not re heated properly. Anyway, I'm not sure food is the only reason you'd come here. For special occasions with a significant other I don't think this place can't be beat.
