I went to the theatre and needed a place to have dinner with friends. The first restaurant that came to mind was 44 & X. We were greeted with a friendly smile as soon as we walked through the door and seated immediately. The service was great, food presentation and portion size was impressive. Lots of flavor. This restaurant does not disappoint even after 25 years. It was nice to see Scott again. Looking forward to going back.

OMG! What an amazing delight to my senses. The food is visually appealing and once you take a bite you are in for a ride of savory and creamy and sweetness. I could taste clear blue waters in my lobster taco. It’s was a sweetness and the sauce was so complete it perfectly balanced. My entire meal was one amazing surprise and gift rolled into one after the other. Please try eating here it’s an amazing experience!

Visited 44&x for pre-theater dinner and we were not disappointed...the food, the atmosphere, the service was everything! It was the perfect place to catch up with friends over shared plates and light bites. The menu was extensive and innovative yet approachable for every palette...there’s something for everyone! The owners are delightful and paid attention to each table, which is rare to find in a manhattan restaurant these days. We will definitely be back! Thanks Scott!!

Very cozy and quaint experience on an easy Thursday night. Staff was amazing and I ordered based off their recommendations. We got the short ribs, salmon and grilled chicken... ribs and chicken were perfectly seasoned and tender. We tried most of the desserts. I loved the chocolate soup, cappuccino and coconut ice cream and the dried marshmallows were very special. My friend loved the sorbet. Highly recommended, esp. if you’re visiting from out of town like we were!

Located in Hell's Kitchen, we found a piece of heaven! Truly knocked us out last night! On a friend's recommendation, we made reservations and gave it a try. As soon as you step through the door, you realize you're in for an unforgettable dining journey. The atmosphere is great, and the service is A. Thank you, Steven! We selected Scallops as our starter. Devine!! Every last bite was a tiny piece of heaven. For entrees, I went with the house special, Branzino, and my dining partner chose the chipolte and citrus marinated pork tenderloin. We're still debating on who had the more delicious dinner. Unbelievable flavor medley in both dishes. We were too full to indulge in desserts, so we're headed back for a second meal here on our 4 day visit!

Wow, what an amazing Mother's Day dinner. I went with my girl and her family. From the very start, Scott, and Jose were very friendly and welcoming. The food and drinks came out at the perfect time. The host was very kind to take a photo for us as well. Everything was delicious. I can't wait to go back!
