"I worked at The Rainbow Room back in 1988. Back then it was owned by David Rockefeller. He poured millions into revitalizing the complex. It was absolutely the most glamorous space in NYC. When you got off the elevator the first thing you was was The Empire State Building and the Twin Towers beyond. It was breathtaking. There were Pages to greet you. There was a 30 piece band and a singer in the dining room to sing the classics like Cole Porter, Gershwin, and Glenn Miller. The dance floor rotated. There were cigarette girls with pillbox hats, tight jackets with peplums and skirts with crinoline. The main bar spanned nearly one side of the floor. There was a piano lounge with a singer. David Rockefeller spared no expense. There was original artwork from Norman Bell Gedes, photos from Steichen, historic photos of 30 Rock back when the building was being built, and of architectural details of the building. In one of the private dinning rooms there was an entire wall of original Bakelite radios from the 1930's. I don't know when it closed, but the Cipriani Group are the new owners, and they have not done justice to the history and physical space. It is now a sad shell with a drab institutional look. So sad."

Classic upscale Ballroom at Rockefeller Plaza. Good food and service for one of the best views of the New York City skyline.

I took my girlfriend here for her birthday, although it's pricey I'd recommend anyone do it at least once for a special occasion, it's a great experience you both won't forget.

This is where my husband Tom proposed to me in 1993. Our son was born in 1994. Our daughter was born in 1997. I’m encouraging my son to propose to his girlfriend here!! I’m going to pay for everything!! My daughter is also engaged so we might have a family wedding with me and my children. This is the most beautiful place to propose!!

In general, the dinner dancing event felt like a pricey tourist trap. The atmosphere was definitely lovely, with a fantastic live band and dancing. The appetizers and dessert were delicious. However, the service was terrible. The waiter continuously mixed up orders, even with a pre-fix menu. When asked for sparkling water, flat water was brought instead after a long wait. Despite requesting a vegetarian option for the first course, chicken was delivered instead of a salad. The lobster cavatelli in the second course was overcooked, but the lobster itself was satisfactory. When two fish dishes were requested for the main course, two beef dishes were mistakenly brought out, resulting in another...

"We went to Bread N Wine on a early Saturday afternoon for brunch. We were greeted and seated by the servers who were attentive. The food was okay the bread was really soft and fresh. My partner got the French Lentil Soup, Spinach and Tomato Egg Bake andI got the French onion soup, egg omelette with spicy tomato avocado and onions. I wasn 't happy with my omelette because thespicy just meant it was covered in hot sauce within. For beverages, we got chai lattes (we later found out it wasn 't tea basedbut rather coffee) and we had the option of oat milk, almond milk or regular milk. In terms of our overall experience we feltby the end too many things were steering the experience south; the worst was when we were accused of using counterfeit money topay for the tip. There was no special marker used to prove that the money was counterfeit or technology to back up this claim.That experience alone left a bad taste in our mouth as we left embarrassed by that claim, kind of shook from that, we stilladded the tip to our credit card 18%. As we walked out and talked about how weird that was, the owner of the business nextdoor overheard us and asked to see the $20 bill he showed us that our money was real and validated what we knew, that themoney wasn 't counterfeit. When we went back into Bread N Wine to discuss this there was no apology, just well, it felt thatway , shrug. It left a terrible feeling. We would not go back after that, this is not how you treat customers from start tofinish, hence the 2 star review."
