“I eat their tasty hamburgers all the time. Friendly people. Very clean. Close to where I live. Very convenient location for me.“

“I’ve been there quite a few times but most memorable were the Freestyle performers and DJ Juan. Good food but the entertainment/DJ are great! I have a wonderful time every time.“

“We live in Harrison and have spent months trying to find a quality bagel place that also serves a French toast bagel. I’ve been eating Taylor ham egg&cheese on a French toast bagel for 20 years from various places in North Jersey. This morning we ordered from B&B the first time via UberEats and I had what I’m fairly certain is the best French toast bagel I’ve ever had. I’mglad I accidentally ordered 2. This is going to become our go-to for THEC bagels. Thank you!!“

“We always Enjoy our meals at the diner! They never disappoint no matter what we order. Don’t forget to try their cheesecake!! It’s soooooo yummy!“

“Absolutely love this place.“

“chill vibe. great burgers. super cocktails. good service“

“Amazing staff, amazing food (better than my bubbies, but don’t tell her) absolutely loved it!!“

“This was my second time at Blue Hill, although my last visit was several years ago before they moved to the Family Meal concept. And I really like it. Each course comes with an assortment of dishes that you can mix and match at your own pace, which makes the whole meal feel relaxed and fun.

I sat at the bar, and both the atmosphere and service were excellent as always. Every course was fantastic, and this is such a great time of year to visit when there are so many amazing vegetables in season. One course highlighted several different peppers, including a specially developed habanero that had all of the sweetness and none of the heat. Really cool! The dessert was really interesting as well as it incorporated Sungold tomatoes. I don’t think I’ve ever had tomatoes in a dessert before, but it was inspired and worked beautifully. A fantastic dinner. I’ll definitely be returning.“

“We decided to try someplace new because of restaurant week. My goodness, what a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious but I have to say the service is what made it especially outstanding. We had a wonderful waiter named John who really made the evening very special for us. We will definitely be back!“

“NYC classic spot. Came solo on a weekday afternoon. I was able to get a seat by the bar in 15 mins. The staff is friendly & it was a full house. My burger came out pretty quickly and the food was delicious and a very generous portion. I would have skipped the drink for a soda instead. Overall I can’t wait to come back again and try the rest of their menu.“

“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.)“

“Absolutely the best food in NYC we finally got a bar seat this past Saturday was in the city for pride we have been trying for years everything was spot on crysathenn salad, the stuffed flatbread and lasagna and cocoa tiramisu“

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

“this place was gorgeous! To be honest I’m not a fan of the furniture because not only is the price outrageous but the furniture is not my color scheme. But I always wanted to eat at this restaurant. It’s very pretty upstairs with the chandeliers and the greenery. The bathroom is very clean and gorgeous. I sat inside because it was really hot yesterday. The booth is very comfortable. I just had the smashed avocado toast. They use a whole avocado for this. It’s almost like it’s a little too much avocado? But I ate most of it. I think half avocado would suffice. It’s also got a little bit of an expensive price tag but it was the only thing I really wanted on the menu. Service was very friendly as well.“

“After a cold and windy morning, not being able to get into one of the morning shows, we ran across this little restaurant by accident for brunch. They quickly welcomed us in with open arms and fresh hot coffee. It was one of the best brunches I've ever had, but what made it even more special was Joey the owner overheard our story, knowing we had a rough morning, and gifting us one of his comfort food cookbooks! The day couldn't have been any better. I can't wait to try one of his delicious Italian recipes this holiday season. I highly recommend the Little Owl. I certainly will be going back in the future!“

“I always love Chambers but last night's meal was especially good. The dream summer dinner: little gem salad, eggplant parm, and the blueberry dessert. I hope to be back to repeat my exact order! Thank you to the bartender (I believe Zachary) for recommending a wine to pair with the eggplant parm.“

“Really Nice Restaurant i Recommend The Odeon Restaurant 😊☺️“

“Every time we take a trip into the city, we make sure to visit the Cookshop. Love the staff. So friendly and they make the best margaritas! Jiro (sorry if I’m misspelling) is a great bartender.“

“Enjoyed a Fabulous dinner and Found the food Delicious and Authentic 💯 The staff was warm and attentive, also the atmosphere and Cleanliness were top notch. Well done, We'll be back⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Impeccable service. The hanger steak….❤️“

“The most incredible meal I have ever had. Thank you.“

“I had an exceptional experience at Arvine tonight! The service was excellent - gave perfect recommendations based on our wine and food preferences. We never felt rushed and I had such a great time catching up with friends over wine. The wine menu was very extensive and the sommelier was very experienced. Now for the food…. We got the the tartar, pasta, burger, bass, fennel salad. Everything was such a hit!each dish was so flavorful. This is such a hidden gem and I will definitely be back again.“

“Uma experiência fantástica, com ótima música! Fui do Brasil a Nova York para conhecer! Show!!“

“My new favorite restaurant in the city. The ambiance is perfect - energetic, while still being able to hear the person across from you, the service is excellent, and the food is the best meal I've had at a restaurant in a long time. It was impossible to choose between the specials and the classics, but everything we ordered was perfect. My one and only complaint is that I selfishly wish it was in Brooklyn Heights so I could pop in for a drink more often!“

“Such a great place! Solid menu, excellent craft drinks, friendly staff. We both had beef filet that was cooked to our exact specifications. I had a nice girly drink which was an enhanced Pina Colada. (Required extreme self control to stop at one.) All the desserts sounded great, and I really enjoyed my bread pudding (the very generous serving size was a surprise). You will really be pleased with your dining experience at The Henry!“

“Food and drinks were amazing.“

“dog friendly and the food is very good“

“Such a lovely place with a really welcoming atmosphere. The staff were genuinely friendly and made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. It’s the kind of service that makes you want to come back. The Ruben sandwich was absolutely delicious—fresh, full of flavour, and definitely one of the best I’ve had. Great food, great service, and a really enjoyable experience overall. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a relaxed spot with excellent food.“

“New York-35th Amazing staff! Mia C was on top of everything. She was thoughtful and fast. She was excited for my son who was turning 10. So much food and make sure you get a shake.“

“Cove is true to its name.

A little way from Washington Square Park, you walk down a quiet side street and step into a quiet, refined shelter. The kitchen staff behind the reception dais move with practiced ease, which is always a fun show.

You'll be welcomed to large wooden tables that may not be redwood, but recall northern California.

The waiters are incredibly attentive and preempted what we wanted throughout the night.

The food itself was vibrant. Elevated California cuisine that uses seasonal herbs and vegetables from local gardens.

For our meal, we split the following:

Vadouvan Roll: I'm glad I ordered this over the sourdough, because it was revelatory. The rolls are soft, and moist on the inside and paired perfectly with the salad. It set expectations high for the night.

Tomato and plum salad: A highlight. Heirloom tomatoes dressed impeccably and contrasted by the plums. The leftover tomato and plum juice made for a fantastic scarpetta.

Tuna: Fantastic. Absolutely get some and the sauce they came served in was delicious.

Island creek oysters: Inventive, and unlike other oysters I've had.

Black cod: My favorite dish. It was moist, fluffy, and fatty. Paired incredibly well with the butternut sauce. The waiters brought us bread to mop up the sauce and leftover fish.

Corn Rice: Pairs perfectly with the black cod. There's a sour ingredient I couldn't figure out that was like a little pop of color in my mouth.

Wagyu NY Strip: A very well executed NY strip, but honestly, I would skip it in favor of the cod and squab.

Squab: A unique experience, and a delicious one. Did I feel a bit feral gnawing on a tiny baby dove leg? Yes. Would I do it again? Yes.

Waffle: Looked fantastic, tasted even better.

Liquorice ice cream: I adore liquorice, so this was a treat.

Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for upscale dining.

Side note: as a lifelong sparkling water fan, I did appreciate the fact that the water wasn't wimpy.“

“Absolutely loved Emily in the West Village! We came for their famous burger everyone talks about, and it definitely lived up to the hype — absolutely fantastic and packed with flavor! We also tried one of their pizzas, which was incredible too. Our waiter was attentive and the whole experience was great. Definitely worth a visit for both the burger AND the pizza!“

“This place feels very welcome and warm and the service was on point. Our waiter Julia was so friendly and professional. Definitely giving five stars.“

“Really great oysters and cocktails! We had a great time...“

“The best Wiener Schnitzel outside Austria!!!!👍“

“Honestly can’t wait to come back when I’m in town and try their other items on their menu. I had the buffalo chicken wontons—8/10. Then their Philly cheesesteak—9/10 (bread was sooo perfect. Crispy yet soft?! Wasn’t expecting that. I asked for mayo but it didn’t really need it. Theirs is way better than Mama’s Too (super viral for their Philly cheese)). Fries?!—10/10. Their condiments—blue cheese and ranch that I tried—really good too 8.5/10. But my waitress is what makes me give 5 stars on everything. Please ask for Deena when you come in. She is so sweet, attentive, and anytime I asked for something she came back quickly attending to my needs. When I come back I too will be asking for Deena. Thanks Malt House for a good evening (that didn’t break my bank too much either!)“

“The autumn salad was amazing!!“

“A fun and packed after party spot for us, with welcoming service and Florida weekend vibes. The fairly priced cocktails designed by pedigreed team were really good. No smoke bubble gimmicks here. Burger is also great. Heard happiest meal deal is excellent.“

“New favorite restaurant! Everything was great from beginning to end. The food was also perfect, I love when a place has the perfect steak! Nice efficient service without feeling rushed, everyone was super nice and warm/bubbly. Will definitely be back!“

“I’ve been here once before ages ago but did a walk in with a friend and managed to get two seats at the bar have to say the food was phenomenal and so were the drinks I live local and will definately be back it’s nice to walk in and keep it all casual people could not have been more helpful and accommodating“

“Had a wonderful lunch with my daughter and entire family today after my daughter’s graduation MSU Go Redhawks! Highly recommended for the amazing food and beautiful atmosphere!“

“Tasty food, reasonable prices, large selection of different meals, clean, warm atmosphere, great service. Highly recommended!“

“Absolutely amazing gluten free food. Shared mozz sticks, truffle pizza, and homemade garganelli with vodka sauce and literally audibly mmmm-ed my way through lunch. Service was warm and friendly. Was so nice to look at a menu and be able to eat every single thing on it. Highly recommend eating here.“

“abcV - (address 38 E 19th St, New York, NYC) phone: 212-475-5829 abcV is a phenomenal restaurant. The food was mouthwatering, brilliantly crafted, and delightfully health-giving. Having dined at some of the finest restaurants around the world, we find that this spot rivals, and in many cases surpasses, all others. Our most recent visit was a mid-morning couple’s dining stop—our answer to a calling to bring pure health and exquisite taste into our bodies and souls. abcV was the perfect answer. We indulged in the unique “Pollen” smoothie (pollen, jungle peanut butter, dates, banana, almond milk, Himalayan salt). I can’t emphasize enough how delicious this chilled and creamy culinary delight was! Served elegantly in a cabernet-style wine glass, I could immediately feel my cells rejuvenate with this healthy creation. The warm vegan croissant was also lovely, with just the right amount of flakiness, perfectly paired with homemade apple butter—yum! Another ‘must-have’ highlight was abcV’s take on Avocado Toast, enhanced with Virgin Coconut & Argan Oils, Crunchy Seeds, Cumin, Sprouts, and shaved carrots. Wow! Thank you, abcV! We can’t wait to return!“

“This quaint but modern restaurant/bar has been open for about 1.5 years now and we've gone there at least 3 times. Each time we've gone, we've been welcomed and treated courteously by the owners and the entire staff. The food is creatively made and delicious as well. The ambiance of the restaurant is especially cozy and reflects well thought out designs with detailed eclectic items specific to the owners creativity and preferences, from the custom-made cement bar to the dining tables. Aside from the enjoyable dining experience, it's also a museum-like environment to enjoy as well! Towards the back, there is an outdoor courtyard area that is cozy and amazing with a great 'fire-pit' to sit around it and enjoy, which is also adorned with various items to enjoy and note. -Nora/Alex“

“the next time I make love to my wife, I'll be thinking about the burger I ate here. phenomenal!“

“The food is a absolutely outstanding!“

“Great service, tasty brunch, delicious drink menu. Roomy atmosphere and lots of indoor and outdoor seating where you're not on top of eachother. Evy was awesome as our server and took great care of us.“

“Slow evening so may have been the night we were there. Food ok, tuna dish was well done vs rare but restaurant offered to correct and comped it. Shrimp appetizer was fresh and very good. Server disappeared for a while, for $100pp would like more service. Restaurant itself is very nice and like that it is easy to access from the street.“

“Went in for dinner. We had reservation but were a few mins late, we had to wait some time for a table which is understandable because they were really busy. We were compensated with a delicious champagne.

The seating spaces are very close to each other. You would be closer to the a stranger next to you then the person you’re dining with.

The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous!

Food is delicious, I had an amazing duck. Couldn’t recommend it enough.“
