It was incredible! First, the views are incredible. It’s why I booked it in the first place but pics don’t do it justice. I was in NYC for my mom’s 62nd birthday and it was her first time in NYC, no one made it special except Manhatta. 4 different people told her Happy Birthday + her name before we even got to the table. They also had a handwritten card for her. Staff was knowledgable & personable. They very clearly love their jobs & the restaurant does not do service, they do better! They show true hospitality.

So far, this has been one of the best dining experiences I’ve had! From the beautiful ambiance to the delicious food and stunning presentation, everything was exceptional. The service was truly outstanding, and the staff made us feel well taken care of throughout the evening. The restaurant was extremely busy when we arrived, so we had to wait approximately 40 minutes before being seated. However, the staff went above and beyond to make up for the delay, which we really appreciated. Their hospitality and attention to detail made the experience even more memorable. Overall, it was a wonderful Michelin-star dining experience, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for incredible food, beautiful ambiance, and exceptional service!

Housed inside a grand 1900s historic bank, Bueno delivers an unforgettable Latin Fusion experience that seamlessly blends architectural elegance with extraordinary flavor. The vibrant menu reimagines classic Latin dishes with creative modern technique, while the warm, precise, and genuinely attentive service elevates the entire evening.
