“I had a wonderful experience here celebrating someone’s birthday! The staff were very attentive and every dish was a hit.
We splurged for the 14 day aged duck and it was so worth it — it’s now my favorite duck I’ve had in NYC! I’d recommend coming with st least 4 people if you order it.
The pan con tomate and frog legs were surprise hits for me, and I loved the chai tres leches cake for dessert.“

“Williamsburg was largely unimpressive until I tried this place. I was there for breakfast and their French toast is the best I've ever had so far. Not your typical toast where you pour syrup on top. This bread is perfectly moist and sweet and does not require syrup. There is a creme topping you can pour over that made for the perfect combo. There are so many places that claim best pancakes, best French toast, etc. French toast, here, is a must. Now I want to come back and see about the pancakes. For savory, we got the merguez omlette. I am not a huge sausage (the sausage not pork, might have been beef) fan, but this was really flavorful and I would absolutely order again. I am usually not excited about brunch, but this place does it for me. And, the ambiance is excellent. I love the exposed brick and overall decor. I could not stop commenting on how positive the experience was and how much I want to return. And, I am one of those people where virtually every place is forgettable except the ones that are not. This is my current #1 for breakfast/brunch until further notice. Highly recommend for all occasions (and that you make reservations in advance). Definitely going back soon!“

“For us, the food was hit or miss. Right from the start, the Sardine toast was the star of the night, then there was aRazor clam special, which was 50/50... the clams were great, but we didn't prefer the melon taste to the dressing. After that, we had the mortadella and sourdough. Both were very good. Ate that we had the snap pea salad and the mitake mushrooms with garlic fudge. Again, both were excellent. It was the mains that just fell apart for us. The bucatini had slices of squash on top that were dry, and a bit too much basil, which overpowered the dish. Other than the basil, it was lacking in flavor. The other main was the hake and risotto. While the risotto was heavily citrussed, almost too much so, it was still tasty, but the fish, again, lacked flavor/ seasoning/ salt. Overall, the meal was a 3.5, but we bumped it to a 4, because worth the omission of the mains, it could have been a 4.5-5.“

“Neighborhood gem. Great decor, homey, comfortable but well appointed. I have dined here alone and with family, both times it was a good atmosphere. GM Michael is really good and runs a good staff. The food is delicious- good for all types of diet restrictions. Fresh ingredients well prepared. Last but not least also great cocktails. Host and server were friendly and attentive. I will for sure be coming back here!“

“This place is a tiny little jam with great service and small bites. Everything was tasty from the Hamon to the Wago beef tartar, Hamachi crudo, Seabass ceviche and the spaghetti. Wines were excellent, especially the Chablis and Chateauneuf-du-pape. Place ain’t cheap so fasten your seatbelts.“

“Loved my first dining experience here. I strongly suggest you make reservations ahead. When my brother and I arrived there were no open tables available. We ended up eating at the bar. The only drawback to sitting at the bar was the noise.
The service was fabulous. We didn't have to wait long for our food to arrive. Our bartender was also attentive to make sure we were okay.
We started with KFC (Kanto Fried Chicken). It was super moist with a nice crispy exterior. The dipping suace pairs well with the chicken. Then we had Chicken Adobo with garlic fried rice. When it arrived our server prepared our meal in front of us. Lastly, we ordered the Lechon platter. When they discovered my brother is allegic to seafood they came out twice to confirm if certain ingredients were acceptable to use. The Lechon Platter was worth every penny. It was delicious and the dipping sauce added to the flavor.“

“One of the best meals we have had in NYC. Claud completely delivered: intimate room, great energy, excellent service, a serious wine list, and food that was creative without feeling forced. The scallop skewer with lardo, spinach and artichoke mille-feuille, chicken liver agnolotti, and Dover sole with Chartreuse and lemon were all outstanding. We also loved the Boisson Rully, which paired beautifully with the meal. The devil’s food cake was a perfect finish. Easily a 10/10 date-night spot and one of our new favorite restaurants in the city.“

“Great wine selection by the glass with some really interesting U.S. options - the Sonoma Pinot Noir was a highlight for me. I had the Restaurant Week dinner menu which was fantastic value for money. Service was super professional and friendly. Nothing to complain about!“

“This is my favorite restaurant in the West Village. The hosting / wait staff are insanely nice, accommodating and knowledgeable of the menu and wine list. The chef is an actual artist who has a unique knowledge of exotic flavors that mesh perfectly into well known dishes. The kitchen is open air and you can see the dedication that goes into prepping and cooking your meal. The menu is ever changing based on what ingredients are the freshest at the time and it's just really one of those great experiences where you feel like you ate a 10/10 home cooked meal. I am writing this review now because it came to my mind given I have a reservation there tomorrow and am surprised I haven't left a review given my historical experiences (I have probably been at least 10, if not more times). Thanks to the whole team for all the great times I have had at your establishment - keep it up and see you tomorrow :) !“

“I came here as part of a group of four and we ordered one of everything off the menu to share. It feels like upscale Chinese tapas, perfect for sharing with friends, maybe difficult to come as a solo diner for a meal. Everything was incredible, a wonderful spin on Chinese cuisine while still being faithful to classic ingredients. My only mild complaint is that the music is on the loud side, and the chopsticks are form over function. It’s hard to pick anything up with them.“

“Possibly my favorite restaurant in New York. I used to live within walking distance and it was my go to spot for years. Now I make a point to go whenever I'm on the LES. The wine list is excellent and I love their cheese, charcuterie, and salads. I like to sit outside there when the weather is warm“

“Musette Wine bar is a great spot, be it in the morning for some coffee and a breakfast sandwich or later in the evening for wine and finger foods.
The wine bar itself has a rather intimate atmosphere where it's nice and cozy in the morning or down right romantic in the evening hours.
The staff are all kind, amiable and are very happy to provide service with a smile. With the owner himself making appearances and checking in with customers to make sure they are happy.
If you want a spot that you can grab a coffee and bagle before work and a after hours glass of wine to unwind with, look no further“

“This is a bit of an upscale tapas bar, knowledge staff, not obtrusive. It did remind me of some upscale places in Spain. Go eat tapas the Manhattans with chocolate rim omg! Food was good too!“

“Came here hungry around 5pm on a Saturday and was able to snag a booth. Ordered 3 steak frites, broccolini, and a bottle of wine, and left with a happy belly and heart, knowing that I will be back time and time again. Our server was very kind and helped us select our wine, and all the servers were fun with great energy.
Only thing my sister left behind were the peppercorns because the steak frites were just that good! Best peppercorn sauce I ever had.
Discovered this place through a friend who lives in the area and now I just told all my friends!“

“Our server Raffy and the food were amazing… only issue was with the front desk. I had made a reservation via Open Table awhile ago for my birthday, specifically for the rooftop/outside seating , but was told that my reservation had been made for inside seating and that all the tables outside were booked. I then asked to speak to the manager because I wouldn’t have made an indoor reservation. Suspiciously they were able to get me a table outside.“

“This is my favorite restaurant in Brooklyn. As soon as you enter, it feels comfortable and warm. The thoughtfully restored space, with its old world character and open, bright feel, is one of the reasons. The friendly staff is the other. There’s no pretension here.
It’s fantastic, simple food made exceptionally well, with talent and creativity, always using fresh ingredients. Definitely try a salad or two while you’re there. The pizza and fresh pastas are well worth a try as well. I’m vegetarian, so I can’t directly speak for the meat or seafood dishes, but my friends and family have never been disappointed.
I’m a self dubbed tiramisu connoisseur and a loyalist to traditionally made tiramisu, and theirs is tried and true. I also love that the staff have gotten to know me and my family. It gives that extra added touch of a true neighborhood restaurant. It’s always a warm, happy experience, and my family and I have created many memories there.“

“I stopped in yesterday with my girlfriends as a trio exactly at 5pm and we were able to get a booth. I loved the cute decor. 90s music and relaxed atmosphere. The shining star of the evening was the Happiest Meal deal…. Do not skip the burger! It is so delicious. We tasted a variety of aeperol spritz’s which were all tasty but my favorite was the classic. Our server Ike was super attentive and friendly, gave us helpful recommendations and playful banter, such a sweetheart. We will definitely be back for Happy Hour (and the burgers). Thanks for a great girls date.-Veronica“

“I cannot say enough good things about my experience at this restaurant. The food was spectacular. I will dream about it. Service was prompt and polite. Best middle eastern food I have had in a long time. If you are in the area, you must stop by. It’s worth it!“
“Just ok. The wine was impeccable, we went with a chilled red that was completely perfect. The food however, was nothing special. It was good, fresh, and well-constructed but the dishes were just overly simple. I know the menu rotates based on who is the chef at that time, but I feel like the menu we got was on the more “meh” side compared to examples I’ve seen.
I would definitely do this place as a wine bar first with some light bites to snack on, but don’t know if I would return specifically for the food program.
ALSO— I found it really obnoxious that they let dogs in the backyard, you never really know who is allergic or what a dog‘s temperament is and either way I just found it really offputting that people were just letting their dogs go up to random patrons during their visit. For a $170 visit I’d hope for more sophistication.“

“Vanguard on the Upper West Side has become a staple for us since we moved to this area 4 years ago. The interior is so charming, the wine selection is always great (and rotates every season), and the folks who work there are absolute gems! Getting to know Isabel and Jacob behind the bar has been such a joy, and they always give the best recommendations. Don’t sleep on the charcuterie board and other light snacks - they’re all delish!“

“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!“

“The Roxy was a solid spot with a few flaws! The cocktails were excellent, however the food fell short. The bartender was great, but the place was understaffed so we were left waiting a while to order food and more drinks. Could be awesome with some refinements!“
