“Cannot WAIT to return! To say I was blown away with the professional and kindly approach of the staff, is an understatement. From the super waiter, Mike, to the GM, Matt, and all points in-between, AND adding in the amazing food, drinks, desserts and ambiance.. WOW!! Kudos for the highly memorable evening! Thank you.“

“5/24 Update, the restaurant invited me back for a meal to redeem their service. To be fair, the restaurant was busy for yellowtail season so understandable.

The food was amazing, we got the scallops rice, salon pasta, Wagyu ribs and the clam soup. I prob would do without the scallop rice for future but everything else hit the spot. Esp my favorite, the clam soup.

Thank you Won and the Capitan of the restaurant for taking care of us! I will definitely be back soon again.

Previous update: Came as a party of one, was seated immediately. Sat and waited for 30mins, no one came to serve me or take my order.

Trendy spot, was excited to try the food, but terrible service.“

“Amazing food and drinks!🥤“

“A+++. If you enjoy and understand cocktail culture and the history then this is a must visit for the weary traveler or enthusiast. I always make it a point to visit for over 10+ years. The hospitality and attention to detail in the art or craft has always been consistent. Salute to the staff and employees of this establishment. May they keep the craft alive for many years to come! Please be respectful and patient for the high demand is eminent. 🥃👌🏼“

“Worth a shot to go to! From the host to the server to the bartenders, everyone was friendly and efficient. Many people came by for the first times as well so not alone on that. Ordered Mary Pickford from the Happy Hour Menu and a Sun King from the In The Shallows Menu along with the Warm Cookie Trio. Would I come again? Yes! This time with friends and family.“

“Such a great hidden spot. Good for drinks/ date or business dinner. Overstory is amazing, but this place is a bit less fuss, while still being great. Especially if it's not great weather for a good view- I like Crown Shy better in winter.

Service can be slow during peak times, but food was good. Book reservations for a table (pretty standard at this type of place.)“

“Consistently good service! Our server Christian was great.“

“Great food - better service. Mason was absolutely wonderful. He helped walked us through the special dishes and his favorites, all of which we tried and were not disappointed. The shrimp parm is an absolute must - as well as the clam pasta. It’s quite different from any other clam pasta I’ve ever had but in a delectable way. The iceberg wedge salad was also delicious. Overall, great experience.“

“Craft cocktails in a cozy colorful outdoor patio. The perfect place to relax after a long week!“

“This was an awesome restaurant. The food was incredible, great views of the city, & delicious dessert selections. Definitely would recommend and will visit again 😊“

“Strongly recommended! Perfect meal. Every dish was perfect mixed of flavors; and portions. And the service added on the amazingness of this place. We are looking forward to next season’s menu.“

“Always love coming to NYC and having a cocktail (or two or three) at The Up & Up!“

“Absolutely wonderful — hands down one of the best meals of the trip. Every dish we ordered was excellent: the watermelon salad, tuna, mandu, steak and potatoes, tteokbokki, and the sesame bread and butter pudding were all full of flavor and beautifully presented.

I loved the Korean-fusion small-plates concept — creative, shareable and really well executed. The cocktails were also excellent.

We sat at the bar for a 5 p.m. dinner before a 7 p.m. show, and the timing was perfect. Service was sharp, everything came out at just the right pace, and the bar had such a lively, engaging atmosphere with great conversation from the team.

Fun, flavorful, beautifully plated and full of energy. Would absolutely come back.“

“Great atmosphere!! Food was amazing!!! Niamh was fantastic so friendly and helpful! The best espresso martinis EVER!!!!“

“Great drink and great vibe“

“Wow! 🔥 This place was absolutely incredible.

The food was beyond delectable—every dish was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. And honestly, the food deserves to be mentioned twice because it was just that good.

The service struck the perfect balance between warm, welcoming hospitality and true professionalism. The atmosphere is the ideal blend of chic and rustic, creating a cozy yet elevated dining experience.

We had a small mix-up with our reservation, but the manager handled it graciously and quickly got everything sorted out, which made an already great experience even better.

Part of me wants to keep this gem a secret, but it’s too good not to share. Then again, I don’t think they’re hurting for customers—they were completely packed on a Monday evening, and after dining here, I can see exactly why.“

“Fab place, great service, amazing cocktails“

“Food and service was excellent. Service was out of this world. Can't wait to go again“

“Chi Restaurant & Bar is incredible! We came in with a large party and they accommodated us perfectly, which meant we got to try almost everything on the menu. The food tasted totally authentic, yet somehow still fresh and fun. Seriously, it felt like every single dish we ordered topped the last one! The duck was absolutely fantastic, and the dim sum and veggies were just as amazing. Whatever you do, definitely don’t skip out on the cute desserts at the end. It's an awesome spot for a group dinner with top-tier food.“

“Solid Mexican-inspired bar with a fun vibe. The guacamole was fresh and the mezcal cocktails were excellent. Prices are a bit steep ($60+ per person with drinks) but the quality is good. Parking nearby is practically impossible so we took the F train to 2nd Ave. Would come back for happy hour on a weekday when it's less crowded.“

“Clemente Bar continues to deliver an exceptional experience across food, service, and atmosphere. Chef Ichimura’s precision and artistry made every course delicate and visually stunning, while Chef Joe brought wonderful energy, care, and seamless support to the service. The pacing was flawless, with every dish arriving as both a piece of art and a standout course. What makes Clemente Bar truly special is how it pairs elevated, world-class dining with such an intimate, welcoming vibe; you genuinely feel like you’re sharing a meal among close friends, even when surrounded by strangers.“

“One of the best hostess in New York, had such a fun time with good energy. I’ve been here for 4 years, countless bars across the world. On a random Wednesday this bar would make it to one of the fun experiences of going out on a night. Shoutout to Mia!“

“Sweet Linda is such a great NYC spot! Amazing atmosphere, delicious food, and really good cocktails. The service was also incredible, everyone was so friendly and attentive. Gianna was especially attentive and provided great recommendations. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. 10/10!“

“Shan is where you go when you want to do anything from grab a casual meal to celebrate a milestone in life. They also deliver which randomly takes a long time but it’s so good you don’t care when that food hits your mouth. Shan is a household word which we judge all other eating experiences by.
We ❤you Shan.“

“Fantastisk plass, og utrolig gode drinker! Anbefales!“

“good thai food and great service. easy to get a res or walk in. we got the crab curry with vermicelli, mango salad, spicy cucumbers and chicken and crab dumplings. the best was the mango salad. the crab curry was cold and had an odd flavor and the cabbage wasn’t super fresh. i would like to give it another shot cause the people were great.“

“The food & service were great! Will definitely return.“

“Amazing food, amazing atmosphere and AMAZING HOSPITALITY! When in NY you must try!“

“Had a fantastic experience at Haswell Green’s. Fun drinks, great service …will absolutely be back for happy hour!“

“the best! staff was so lovely and welcoming!!“

“An absolute neighborhood gem! Me and my friends have been big fans for years. Great location, vibes, and ambiance. And food is delicious -- but usually only go for oysters and fries admittedly (but the meat bread is yummy too). Strongly recommend this place and it's nice they have outdoor seating too.“

“I wouldn’t call Katana a dive bar, but on a Tuesday night it felt like a great neighborhood bar. Relaxed atmosphere. Was surprised at how small it was but that added to the chill vibe. I bet on a Thirsty Thursday and the weekend that all changes, but the bartenders and the craft cocktails will be just as great.“
