We got really lucky, with a table right next to the fountain.
Even though the sun wasn't out on Saturday it was really humid. We tried to stay hydrated, but it's hard when you're walking all over the city. So after we chugged down some water, it was time for a cocktail. The skinny margaritas immediately caught our eyes. The waiter suggested that if we were going to have 2 each, we might as well get a pitcher. Well duh...
The margarita was fantastic! It was very light and refreshing, and I love that he brought us extra lime slices in the glass. Not sure how big the regular glasses were, but we figure we probably had close to 3 margaritas each. No complaints from the table could be heard. And of course we couldn't leave a drop of the margarita in the pitcher
All we had eaten for the day was a croissant before we went to Ground Zero, so we figured this would be our main meal of the day. But we also didn't want to gorge ourselves, at least not yet. So we decided to split a salad and sandwich. We also got parmesan rosemary fries as an appetizer. I was a little disappointed in the fries, because they were just plain fries with parmesan sprinkled on top. The good thing though is that they served it with fresh rosemary, and that did add great flavor.
We split the avocado and goat cheese salad, and the crystal valley farm chicken sandwich.

Will I go back? Definitely! As we were leaving we noticed they have a prie fix dinner menu for $38. Not bad at all, considering just an entree item in a NYC restaurant can easily run at least that. Plus it's a great place to sit and relax and enjoy the afternoon.
