"Cecchi’s is named after owner and longtime maître d’, Michael Cecchi-Azzolina — who has noted the front-of-the-house gig is a “lost art form.” In the position at various restaurants for over 35 years, he worked at River Cafe, Raoul’s, Minetta Tavern, and Le Coucou. He also wrote the restaurant-service chronicle, Your Table Is Ready. As such, the restaurant is extremely accommodating for families, sporting high chairs, offering crayons and paper, and generally catering to kids. Yes, there are burgers, mac and cheese with bacon, and other items kids might like." - Eater Staff
