For authentic Tuscan and Italian family-style dining in the midtown area, this place cannot be beat! From the gracious hospitality of the legendary Maccioni family of Le Cirque, to the attentive and knowledgeable staff, to the steller dishes whipped out by Chef Michael Galata's kitchen which were inspired by Mama Edgi's cooking, dining here will be a delightful experience for all. The circus-theme decor also adds a whimsical touch so no wonder it's a favorite amongst celebrities, business people, families and foodies alike. I'm a regular and my favorite dishes include the grilled octopus, tuna tartar, Mama Edgi ravioli, spaghetti alla vongole, pressed chicken, veal chop and red snapper for two. But really, every dish is beautifully plated and deliciously prepared. The desserts are winners too. I love the toffee pudding and of course the Le Cirque Creme Brulee is the absolute best. They also have an impressive wine selection and a very knowledgable sommelier. Whether for a business lunch, pre-theater dinner or a leisurely dining experience with friends, this is a delightful restaurant that will have you coming back over and over again. Highly recommended!
