“From the moment we walked into Rampoldi New York, it felt like an experience rather than just dinner. The ambiance, lighting, elegant design & live music instantly transported us, creating the perfect setting for a special night out. The manager and staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and welcoming throughout the evening, making us feel genuinely cared for. To start, we both ordered the **Rampoldi** cocktail.. how could we not? It was the perfect balance between sweet and tart. The passion fruit added just the right touch and it was easily one of the best cocktails I've had in a while. For appetizers, we shared the **Calamar et Courgette Frits** and the **Torchon de Foie Gras de Maison**. The calamari was perfectly crisp and light, while the foie gras torchon with tomato chutney and brioche was rich, decadent, and absolutely delicious. For our entrées, we ordered the **Filet de Boeuf** and the **Flan de Parmesan "Rampoldi."** The filet was cooked beautifully and paired perfectly with the peppercorn sauce and potato purée. The Flan de Parmesan was delicious, with layers of eggplant parmigiana, ricotta, spinach, tomato sauce, pesto, and parmesan fondue that came together beautifully. Best I've had! To finish, we shared the **Meringue au Citron** light and refreshing combination of lemon meringue, vanilla sponge cake, and lemon mousse. It was the perfect ending to an exceptional meal. Oh!! & let's not forget the espresso Martini we had after dessert. It was the perfect after dinner drink. I can't wait to return ✨”
“We discovered this restaurant completely by chance and were truly pleasantly surprised. Everything here is simply perfect — very clean, a cozy and elegant atmosphere, delicious food, and top-level service. You can really feel the attention to every detail — from the presentation to the music, which creates a special ambiance. Live piano music adds even more charm and sophistication to the experience. We were served by Milena — incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. I was genuinely impressed by such outstanding service. Truly a perfect restaurant.”
“Really good experience in a beautiful open venue. Service was perfect with good attention from multiple staff but not overbearing by any means. We especially loved the duck confit, soufflé, and complementary bread. There’s live music if it’s not too late. The ambience is great for a special occasion. The red lightning is interesting. Maybe not for everyone. Would come back again for another special event.”
“Elegant, upscale venue with a true feminine, neon-pink glamorous vibe. Think sparkling glass chandeliers, mirrors, absolutely beautiful floral arrangements, all perfect for a girls’ night out, chic brunches, or celebrations like Mother’s Day. Next to us, two young men were taking their mom out to dinner. Loved the triptych of Mona Lisa paintings by Domingo Zapata, a playful artistic nod to Grace Kelly. Very, very cool interior design move. Bravo! The menu leans into French and Italian fine dining with a classic, old-school feel. Didn't quite excite me the way many modern restaurants in Paris do today, felt too safe and traditional, missing that creativity and a nice twist that makes a dining experience special and memorable. The live trio band was jamming all night long. It was such a good, fun energy and to me, they really elevated the whole experience. Loved it!”
