Such a gem in the neighborhood, it's always nice to have a place that is consistently good. Great wine selection and the food never disappoints.

Love Bar Bête's comfortable upscale vibe. Food was delicious. Also, the staff happily accommodated celiac needs in our party and our additional asks for a birthday in the group.

My wife and I have been here at least 5 times and each time is better than the last. We love the cozy atmosphere, the attentive service, and the delicious gnudi. The menu changes frequently which always makes coming back a new adventure. Do not miss the chocolate cake!

Maybe it was just coincidence, but every dish we had tasted like some version of ceviche. Yes even the aioli for the duck fat potatos. Ironically the mackerel itself didn't but the potatos it came with did. This chef must own a lemon tree. 🍋
For reference, we got potatos, gnudi, carrots, mackerel, leeks.
Also, 4 dishes was way more than enough for two to keep it right under $100.

Just unreal food and environment. Surprising I can still walk in on a Thursday night and be seated immediately. Duck fat potatoes, fermented garlic (I think) spicy tuna toast, yellow cake are the stars/most ordered but you can’t go wrong. Totally satiating.

The food was solid, but the service was some of the worst I’ve experienced in NYC. We had a 7:45pm reservation and were moved from the bar to our table, which was fine. The real issue came at the end: after finishing dinner, we ordered dessert with a candle for my friend’s birthday. Instead of dessert, the manager came over and told us we’d need to vacate our table for the 9:30pm reservation and move back to the bar. We were stunned — we had literally just ordered and the 9:30pm reservation had not arrived yet. It completely killed the celebration. For a restaurant that markets itself on hospitality, this was unacceptable. We won’t be back.
We were a group of six and had an absolutely great time. The room is pretty without being over-the-top, the service is friendly but professional, and the food is really outstanding. The place reminds me of my favorite neo-bistro spots in Paris and Berlin. And the yellow cake, hyped as it may be, exceeded very high expectations. Loved it.

The drinks were good. The wait staff were helpful and attentive. However, the food was very salty. Even the dessert was salty, but not bad. For $200 bill you can definitely do better.

Dinner at Bar Bete started strong with standout dishes like the tuna toast, mussels escabeche, and oysters. Unfortunately, the ricotta and wagyu steak fell flat in flavor. Service was solid, but the atmosphere was loud.
