Typically I have a good experience with certain servers but today was the worse it's giving racist and special privilege benifits. I had to chase around bartender to order after being ignored someone finally helped ! The Manager was hard to distinguish and seem oblivious to the customer service or lack off .Definitely will be the last time .Need to train staff on no profiling and prioritizing all customers not just Caucasian ones ! I wish there was a zero option to rate .

I had the avocado toast around 3pm on a Sunday afternoon after being out playing sports on a mostly empty stomach for the entire morning. The avocado toast was heavenly. Perhaps partly due to my starvation and exhaustion ? (The avocado on a separate plate was an "extra" that I ordered -- $4).No, but more seriously, the toast had the right amount of crunchiness, the smashed avocado had the right amount of salt and sweetness, and the veggies contributed a nice hint of sourness. Overall, very satisfying.The iced coffee with milk and no sugar was also delicious. Can one associate deliciousness with coffee? I don't know but that was how it felt ?5 ⭐ overall despite a 3 ⭐ for service -- the server didn't do anything wrong, but I just didn't feel very welcome ?

Nice atmosphere however the music and conversations are very loud. Food is good. Service excellent. Very pricey even for NYC.

We had to ask for salt 3 times before it was brought. A simple thing, but then when all our entrees arrived, one was missing. We asked two different people for the dish. By the time we had someone's attention on the issue, we had finished our entrees. Too late. And we had a show to attend to. Not good at all.

Was excited to go to Sienna as I'd been there years ago. The food was very good and a great value but for some reason there was a DJ and the music was painfully loud. I was with two younger women who also couldn't wait to leave because of the music. This ruined what would have been a good time.

It is a great place for a friend group, however if you are looking for a cute datenight (how I was with my girlfriend), it may be a bit overwhelming. The food was great, so was service. The only minor point really is the spacing, we got a little table right in between so many big groups that it was hard for us to maintain a conversation. If it wasn't for that, I would definitely give it 5 stars.

Completely unimaginative brunch menu. Not worth the UES markup, nor is it worth the schlep of you don't live nearby.All the decor is milquetoast stuff you could find in a Scranton pasta dump.

I have absolutely nothing good to say. Service was so awful ( one guy working the bar and all tables), and he was slow and forgetful.The food was just as bad... waited over an hour to receive an undercooked cold mushroom pizza.Additionally, The restaurant was freezing cold... when I finally complained the owner walked to the thermostat and adjusted it...( the cold temp was intentional)!!The owner (Russ) had arrived during height of lunch service and did nothing to help.... walked around drinking a cup of coffee. Useless!Also if paying by credit card, they add an additional 3.5% to check!!!
