“If I could give Helena more than five stars, I would. She was nothing short of legendary.
From the moment we sat down, Helena made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. What impressed me most was that she was also managing a very large party right across from us, yet you never would have known it. She handled everything with incredible grace, professionalism, and efficiency—never looking rushed, never making anyone feel forgotten, and always with a warm smile.
She has that rare ability to make every table feel like they’re her top priority. Our drinks stayed full, our food arrived perfectly, and she checked in at just the right moments without ever hovering. Watching her seamlessly juggle such a demanding workload was honestly impressive.
Essex Restaurant is fortunate to have someone like Helena. Outstanding service like hers is hard to find, and she turned a great meal into an unforgettable experience. We’ll absolutely be back, and we’ll be asking for Helena every time.“

Thank you Aaron for such a delightful lunch today at your restaurant. Best Manhattan I’ve had in a long long time! You were so attentive and accommodating. Service the best! Thank the kitchen for the great food also! Will be back soon with our nephew and his spouse!“

“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.“

“An absolute must-visit for steak lovers in NYC! The moment you walk into Palermo Argentinian Bistro, the cozy, rustic atmosphere sets the perfect mood. We started with the beef empanadas, which were fried to a flawless, shatteringly crisp golden brown. For the main event, the skirt steak was incredibly juicy, tender, and packed with authentic Argentine flavor—especially when paired with their vibrant chimichurri. Service was fast and welcoming, and the wine selection perfectly complemented the meal. Don't sleep on the flan with dulce de leche for dessert. I will absolutely be back!“

“What an incredible experience! I went there last night on 57th Street for Christmas Eve. 5 star customer service thanks to The Rock & staff, delicious lamb chops, tuna tartare and Pinot Noir. I had the pecan pie and ice cream, my mom had the crab cake and we shared the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. I highly recommend! Thank you for such an enjoyable evening! I will definitely be back.“

“Looking for relaxing evening at a nearby place, I stopped into Empire Steak. Service was excellent and helpful with lots of recommendations. I went with the beef short ribs and I've never seen ribs this ginormous. The meat fell of the bone and through the folk - scrumptious.“

“Really enjoyed our dinner there, it was a client dinner with 11 people, we had a choice of soup or salad as well as main course, appys and sides were served family style so we got to try a lot of dishes. Everything was excellent especially the lobster pops, seafood tower as fresh as can be. My wifes filet and lobster tail perfect. I had a strip which is not my favorite cut, nor is a filet but it was delicious. Sides great, especially the truffle mac n cheese. Deserts were great as was service. Will definitely come back“

“Service and food was superb and our waitress, Taylor, was one of the best parts of our evening. She was attentive, sweet, and made the dinner that much more memorable. The lobster and crab cake appetizer is 10/10.
Thank you to the hostess, who held my items that required refrigeration until dinner was over. If I need to schedule another business meeting, the Capital Grille will be top of mind.“
“Prime ribs lived up to our expectations and hype - tender, succulent, and lucious. I especially loved the crust with a smoky, peppery flavor throughout.
The French fries however was disappointing- too skinny for a steakhouse standard; kinda feel like they are from McDonald’s
Everything else of the prime rib experience, from the bread and butter, to the creamed corn and Caesar salad, were so innovative and delicious! I love the candied anchovies in the Caesar salad - I want to recreate that at home!“

“I went to Harry's for my birthday dinner while visiting NYC in May 2025. Everything was absolutely perfect. Best beef wellington I've ever had. The service was outstanding. The drinks were delicious and the creme brulee topped everything off. I plan to dine there everytime I visit NY. I would recommend to any and everyone.“

“Crane Club pulls off the rare trick of feeling both serious and easy. Had my birthday dinner there and the room did half the work before the food arrived: warm wood, low light, a fire going, the kind of energy where you settle in and stop checking your phone.
Service was the headline. Attentive without hovering, generous with recommendations, and clearly read the table within ten minutes. Knew when to top off, when to disappear, and when to slide in a candle without making a production of it.
Kitchen shows restraint where a lot of New York spots overreach. Cocktail program is sharp; wine list has range and someone there can steer you without upselling.
No shortage of places to celebrate something in this city. Crane Club is one of the small handful that actually understands what a celebration is supposed to feel like. Already plotting the next reason to come back.“

“Really great experience here. Lauren took care of us and was honestly a huge part of why the night was so enjoyable. Super personable, easy to talk to, and just made us feel really comfortable the whole time. My daughter loved her and keeps asking when we’re going back to see her again .You can tell when someone genuinely enjoys what they do, and it really made the experience stand out. Definitely looking forward to coming back.
Only small feedback would be that the substitution charges for pretty much any change were a little annoying.“

“The porterhouse for 2 was what we went with for my girlfriend's birthday dinner and it was phenomenal! The service was great and the ambiance even better. We were also watching the Knicks beat the Spurs in game 2 to end a perfect night! Will be back soon!“

“My family and I dined here after a Broadway play as part of our birthday celebration for my wife.
The server and sommelier made it a point to make our experience special and started off our meal with a glass of champagne. Our server, Ben, was excellent and walked us through the menu choices and helped with a few selections and then took great care of us throughout the evening.
The Sommelier, Jazz, helped us pick the perfect bottle of wine based on our wine preferences and within the budget we gave him. He checked back in several times to make sure we were happy with the wine and the meal.
Everything we ordered was excellent, Hamachi, Steak Tartare, Filet, Wagyu Rib Cap, cocktails and desert. We loved it all! When Jonathan, the General Manager, stopped by to say hello and check on us we told him we no longer have to search for a favorite steak house, we just found it.“

“Best prime rib I have ever had in a restaurant EVER!!!!
And the service is outstanding. I always have so many questions about what’s in this and what’s in that and the servers are patient and take their time to understand and make sure that I’m only eating what I want to be eating.
The only reason I read the atmosphere of three is because it is SO loud. I know many restaurants like that type of atmosphere, but it makes it very challenging to have a conversation with people next to me.“

“We dined here for our last night in New York, and were so glad we did. The food was outstanding, steaks cooked as requested, sides of Steakhouse fries, sauteed broccoli and mushrooms were perfectly delicious accompaniments. Our waiter was very pleasant and happy to make suggestions or recommendations. All staff were courteous and welcoming. We would be very happy to recommend and would definitely visit again.“

“Food are surprisingly not bad. Ordered a poke bowl and Mrs D fried chicken. The fried chicken was juicy, and skin was crunchy and crispy though it is more of a dried spice type of chicken. There is a bench with 4 tiny tables for dine-up and 2 bathroom. Will definitely order again.“
