Went to Next Restaurant for dinner last night in Fulton Market. We booked the Tuscany‑theme tasting menu. The presentations looked slick, but some dishes tasted underwhelming and a few parts just felt gimmicky. Service was polite but a little stiff. Definitely not the foodie thrill I’d hoped for—left kinda underwhelmed given the steep price.

Next is always enjoyable and this current ā€œPresentā€ Massimo Bottura menu is very fun. The first bites, the fish and chips (not at all like fish and chips you’ve had before), the ā€œcappucinoā€ style salad - amazing. So acidic and so delicious.

The only course that didn’t hit the mark for me was the tortellini with broth. It felt like a departure from the rest of the menu, and unless you add the crab pasta course (yummy and worth it), the pasta dish wouldn’t have hit the mark. The spiced broth flavours were strong, and didn’t feel cohesive with the rest of the menu.

The plates were cleared very very fast this time and we were hungry so it was okay, but the service did feel a tadddd rushed compared to previous visits.

Nonetheless, always a great time and can’t wait to come back for the future!

Food was superb! Exceeded expectations for a single star restaurant. We were there for the Massimo Bottura collab and it was magical. We also had a non-alcoholic pairing and it was amazing!

The service though was so so. Good overall, but we felt rushed. I was literally asked if I can grab the grissini in my hand, so a server could take the bread plate away (a no no for that kind of a restaurant). And same guy took a plate away later while my wife was still eating.

The other thing that didn’t match the food level is the atmosphere. It was very loud. Tables are too close together and music selection was not befitting the food.

Food is already at 2* without doubt in my view, the rest they still have some work to do.

Outside dining menu was subpar. Food is very small portions, service was slow. Not a good representation of the full experience - would skip.

Summer 2025: Massimo Bottura

Amazing. This specific menu does not have a weak dish. Even the dessert at the end felt like it got better and better with each successive bite. I wasn't sure I enjoyed the first bite, but by the second and third, you're getting the different layers of flavor shining through.

Service is some of the best in the city.

Great atmosphere.

Amazing dining experience. Appreciate the story behind each dish and the experience did not disappoint.

Loved Bobby Flay and the Trotter menu, Alinea year 1 felt misleading.

Just had an unforgettable night at Next in Fulton Market. The Charlie Trotter tribute menu was a nostalgic trip—standouts were the osetra caviar with sea urchin, and the poussin with black truffle stew. Service was impeccable, and the vibe was classy but not stuffy. If you're into fine dining with a creative twist, this place is a must-visit.
