"I was so pleased to read about the reopening of Rattan, but was, sadly, disappointed with the experience. The lighting is more chain-restaurant bright, the servers were dressed quite sloppily, and were very slow with service even though there were plenty of them on the floor. There was one menu on the table to share between us- we commented on it and the waiter just shrugged and walked away. The price changes really floored us. They didn't just increase, they went crazy-high. We ended up not staying because even the appetizers were overpriced, yet most were unappealing."

"Planning a party of 225 people is challenging when you are doing all by yourself, so I started couple of months before. I reached out to Biryani N Grill and went for food tasting. My husband and I liked their food and decided to cater from them. We had customized few dishes to our palette, and they obliged to our requests. For Cocktail hours we had Samosa Chat, Mixed Vegetable Pakora, and Chicken fingers. For Main Course we had Goat Biriyani, Chicken Korma, Paneer Tikka, Tindora fry with Cashews, Eggplant Salan, Mango Dhal, Bagara Rice, Roti, and Naan along with Papad, Raita, and condiments. And For Dessert we had fruit salad with Rabdi. The meat and vegetables were cooked to perfection. The Goat biriyani and the Chicken Korma had lots of meat pieces and not just gravy and the same with the Paneer dish. They had prepared the Tindora fry with fresh tindora and not the frozen ones. The dishes were very clean with right amount of spice and not greasy at all. Every single item on the menu was delicious and there was enough food to serve all and take home some. Our guests enjoyed the food and their comment was ‘food is excellent’ and so is ours. We will be visiting again this weekend."

"I like the atmosphere! It more of a Japanese Korean fusion inspired restaurant. Cute soju bottle decor This is what I ordered : Homemade Crab Puffs 4/5 a bit too much cream cheese in the mix. The wonton crunch was thin and crispy. Takoyaki 3/5 flavor was there but it was dense and too gooey inside. Spicy Salmon Roll 4/5 basic spicy salmon roll. Chicken Katsu Bento Box 4/5 it’s a lot of food. The salad and the dressing was the first part I finished. The gyoza was alright there wasn’t a lot of flavor in it though. California rolls were basic California rolls. The chicken Katsu had a really nice crunch was juicy and moist but it just needed to be tossed in salt for a second. Overall I had a good experience here. I was able to eat my leftovers for dinner I’ll probably come back for happy hour."

"I always have a fantastic experience at this restaurant. I ordered the filet mignon with a lobster tail, but I was a little disappointed because I only received half of the tail. In the past, I've always had a whole tail. On a positive note, the filet mignon was cooked perfectly to my order, medium and juicy. However, I was let down by the vegetables, as the dish now comes with broccolini, which is a genetically modified hybrid of asparagus and broccoli and lacks flavor. The loaded baked potato was excellent, and I also had a Bloody Mary that was just okay. On the bright side, the service was outstanding. I’ll definitely be returning for more!"

"We attended their New Year dinner w friends and had a great time. However, I wish, my tenderloin had been Med. Rare as I ordered it as well as the lobster. Both a bit overdone which drains flavor. First courses were yummy, but let’s stop serving vegetables out of season (tomatoes) just not the best. I’d love to see a winter multi ingredient salad: so many yummy things available: arugula, nuts, some unique ingredients. Service is always on target: they properly wait till all are finished before clearing the course and never stack. The owner, Bill stopping by for a quick visit. Nice since we eat there often. Feels like that friendly neighborhood place you love to feast. One last point, Bacaro’s was busy, good for them and glad they survived the shut down, but can we lower the noise level a bit? Quieter would increase ambiance for this beautiful and exceptional wine bar restaurant. Over all we had a good time and hope to turn this into our tradition for NY celebrating. 9 pm seating was just right."
