“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.“

“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.“

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

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Fab place, great service, amazing cocktails“

“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!“

“Modern Tiki bar with retro vibes. Super fun atmosphere.“

“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.“

“This establishment is everything! From the time I entered the service was impeccable. I had the seared Bass w/Copolini and the Crab Spring Rolls. 5 stars, a must when in NYC.“

“Ended up here accidentally on a layover: Hands down, the best ramen I’ve ever had (springy, slurpy perfection), amazing cocktails (if you like gin the Japanese 75 is a must try!), and whatever the whipped cream, creme brûlée’d banana dessert was tasted like heaven. I even ordered another tonkotsu ramen to go (all the way to Florida) to bring back to my fiancé. They separated all of it, packaged it so it wouldn’t leak, and wrote directions on specific timing for heating up each item! Very impressive service. I’ll be back again!“

“Had an amazing night here with my girlfriend, our server Tyler was incredible and shared her fave drink recs, the space is lovely and open. We came to see our friend Samantha perform, and their live jazz set added so much to the evening. Apart from the service, the cocktails menu is creative, memorable, and delicious, so treat yourself to a great evening here.“

“The Woo Woo is definitely one of my favorite spots in the city! Kamila is such an amazing server and suggested we order some shots of her own creation: Rainbow Cookie Shots! Seriously so good they should be on the menu. The vibe of the bar is perfect with the best popular funk and pop music. I always recommend it to folks :)“

“Had an amazing dinner at Junoon! The atmosphere is elegant and cozy. The staff was friendly and knew the menu well. Every dish was full of rich, authentic flavors, and the presentation was beautiful. Loved the creative desserts too. Definitely a top spot for Indian fine dining in NYC!“

“BEST PHO I EVER HAD IN THIS COUNTRY. I was craving for pho and stumbled upon this place. There was a 40min wait to be seated and don't be discouraged by this because the food is really worth the wait. Their pho is flavorful and they give a generous portion of beef. We also tried the banh mi and it did not disappoint. One of my fave place now in nyc.“

“Drinks and apps were wonderful before the show at beacon. We felt like we were in Europe. Fantastic! We will be back!“

“Visited on Wednesday night to celebrate mine and my husbands wedding that day and as soon as we walked in we were greeted by lovely friendly staff. We were seated quickly and were introduced to our server. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was fantastic. We opted for the Korean bacon to start and we both had the butchers feast. Outstanding. The steak was beautiful and the dishes that came with it were amazing too. The short rib and egg soufflé were my favourite. Thank you for letting us celebrate our wedding day in your restaurant.“

“After eating so much (pizza etc )we needed to eat something different, spicy and booked this gem,as it as near to our hotel. It was also our 40th wedding anniversary. We are from U.K. This was amazing perfectly cooked tasty home made authentic Indian cuisine. We had mocktails ( lavender was refreshing ). The tandoori lamb chops x4 were full meat seasoned beautifully and delicious. All other sides perfect too. Now in U.K. we hate restaurant Indian puddings they are usually bought in and awful/failure. After finding out the chef is the owner and a recipient Michelin star we were convinced to stay,try and this was the first time we have had authentic home made puddings; try Kulfi with rose water & also Indian rice pudding. The whole meal was exceptional great value and we will recommend this restaurant to anyone else visiting New York. Easy to find off Times Square /Broadway. Thanks for the rendition “ congratulations “ for our 40th. You are great ! A little gem of authenticity in big New York !“

“Such a great night at Madame George. The space is stylish and atmospheric, the music sets the mood beautifully, and the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. The only downside was that the music became a little too loud for an easy conversation, and we would have loved a broader selection of bar snacks. Still, a lovely spot for cocktails, live music, and a proper New York night out. We'll definitely be back!“

“I really enjoyed this place. It has some retro charm. It even had a Photos booth and the food was good. The desserts were amazing. Largest milkshake I’ve ever seen in person and the staff was really nice and friendly and Alfredo the manager was really good guy.“
