Ate at Maialino and drank at the bar/hung out in the lobby. Both very good experiences, albeit with small hiccups. Dinner was overall incredible. Drinks and food consistently very good in a nice setting. However, one dish was bland and overcooked and the service sometimes bumped into each other or failed to communicate. E.g., I want to keep my red wine glass and one server understands that but a few minutes later the other takes it away.

Small stuff, obviously, but for this price level and hype in Manhattan you should reach closer to perfection to earn 5 stars.
