The food and ambiance were stellar . I had the stuffed 2 lbs lobster and my wife, the Dover sole. Gargantuan shrimp as appetizer. Server was attentive and friendly. Expensive but worth every cent .

It was my third time at Sea Fire Grill and every experience was excellent! I ordered from the pre-fix lunch menu and was not disappointed. The octopus was tender and delicious, the Bronzino was excellent and the Moulton Chocolate dessert was yummy. The server was attentive but not intrusive and we were not rushed and enjoyed a very leisurely lunch.

My husband and I were visiting from Toronto and were looking for a place to celebrate his 60th birthday. We were fortunate to secure a same day reservation for dinner. The restaurant was quite busy for a Monday night. We were greeted quickly and seated immediately. The hostess acknowledged my note regarding our birthday celebration which was appreciated. Our server Dair was wonderful; very knowledgeable regarding the menu and extremely kind and generous with his time. Great cocktails and impressive wine list. The food was delicious. We had oysters, burrata, bone-in ribeye plus mushrooms and caulilini as sides, halibut, and king crab. A lot of food but fit for the occasion. The pecan pie for dessert was amazing!! The food is pricey but worth every penny. The next time we are in New York City, we will definitely be back.

Food was decent; very small wine pour though— even for NYC— and the waiter was condescending and appeared like he really didn’t want to bother. Welcoming women were very nice and accommodating. If you want a good steak dinner, terrific seafood, attentive wait staff and greet ambiance go to Wolfgang’s or Gallagher’s.

The experience was five-star, with the exception of the host who was extremely rude, not hospitable at all and actually made my partner and I second guess whether or not we belonged there. If it weren’t for the glowing recommendation that we received from the concierge at the JW Marriott Midtown - we would have walked out as she gave us the impression that we weren’t welcomed. Thankfully we powered through and the rest of the experience was by far some of the best food and dining experience we’ve had! Great job to the chef, the entire kitchen, the serving staff for helping make my partner’s birthday a memorable one. We will just chalk our experience with the host up as your typical NYC rope experience for an exclusive night club / spot.

No cocktails offered, then with noisy with kids, another guest was live-streaming his date we decided to just push on. High prices without the full package. Steak knives dull, crackers as a bread basket? Wait staff were nice, octopus app and grilled calamari good. Crab ok (bit watery) steaks were tasty - please invest in good steak knives
