CA A great place. The a la carte approach can get the bill pretty high, but the service, atmosphere and history make it one of the best. Sit at the counter and see if Manny is in the mood to perform any magic tricks. Ok so the neighborhood is, at best seedy, The restaurant is magnificent and the service is in the classic tradition. And don't forget to read what others have said.
