“Great food, and great customer service“

“This is a real gem of place. The food and wine is perfect. A beautiful and unique menu. Staff are friendly and efficient. Gorgeous venue, loved the rock music. Highly recommend.“

“Excellent cocktails, excellent service, and excellent atmosphere! 10/10“

“Despite the cool atmosphere, good vibe, and enjoyable drinks, our experience was hindered by inattentive service. We waited at the bar for quite some time, trying to catch the eye of two different waiters, but were largely ignored. It was disappointing, especially given that they were pretty much right in front of us, backs turned, walking by and seemed to be doing everything possible to actually serve customers.

The shrimp were not very good given the price. The tuna tartar was excellent.“

“Moono became one of my favorite spots in NYC. My wife and I tried it after a last minute reservation and I have to say it was amazing. Moono offers a perfect mix of elegant ambience, flavorful modern Korean dishes, and attentive service. It was great dining experience!“

“Excellent and comfortable affordable“

“Atmosphere, amazing! Food, top! Jeffrey, BRAVISSIMO!“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“The flavors were great and will be back next time. Any food lovers out there?“

“I've had the privilege to dine in many amazing restaurants around the globe and even privately in the kitchen of some famous chefs. I can say with absolute authority that this was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Absolutely amazing from first bite to last! Make sure to opt-in for the savory beignet as well. It was superlative. I'll be envious of anyone getting to dine here until I have a chance to come back again!“

“I had a wonderful time, the food was delicious, strong drinks. Plenty of food, beautiful restaurant. Definitely worth it. Plus we got a little loud and they were fine with it. Didn’t feel threatened lol“

“Had always heard great things and I can confirm that they hold up. They have some outdoor seating so we took advantage of that. Ordered the Sabry’s Combo (shrimp, calamari and salmon) which came with salad, bread and rice. Also got the mixed Tajine (shrimp and calamari) which was incredible. Definitely be sure to save your bread to dip on the Tajine. While we were waiting for our food, the owner popped his head out to say that they had a special soup that day so we decided to try it. It was Molokhia or green soup which had shrimp in it. Everything was delicious and I’ll definitely be coming back“

“Loved this place, coming back to NYC just for this restaurant!“

“Some of the best seafood in the city comes from the PdF kitchen and everything else, especially the desserts, are great as well. The price lends itself to a special occasion but it’s worth stopping by even to just enjoy some great cocktails, the strong Spanish-focused wine program, or some exciting after dinner drinks. One of my favorite spots in NYC.“

“We lived in nyc for 30 years. Recently moved to DE. God only knows how much we miss the nyc culture. Nothing holds a candle to it. 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!“

“Great food and drinks! A big pricey, but worth it!“

“Ilis was highly recommended to us by a friend who is a chef, after we asked about suggestions on restaurants in New York that truly push boundaries. It did not disappoint. While we are quite familiar with the concept of radical local sourcing and seasonal cooking organised by colder and warmer days, (yes, days not months), Ilis still managed to surprise us. We opted for the market menu, which is tailored to the ingredients available on that very day, and were treated to an additional dish. Each course was impeccably well prepared and presented effortlessly, and fun! The natural taste of the ingredients was allowed to shine, offering the rare opportunity to unspoil your palate and rediscover how herbs, vegetables, and meat/fish taste on their own, when not suffocated in fat, sugar, and spices. This, we believe, is the key to the success of Ilis and its chef Mads Refslund: being able to keep the dishes almost naked while never loosing the culinary direction. An absolute standout was the extra dish: raw tuna scraped from the dorsal fin spine, followed by the other side grilled with sesame. It was nothing short of a feast! Another memorable feature is Ilis' book of ingredients, which you can browse through between courses. It offers insight into their sourcing, philosophy, food preferences, and quirks (giggle). Lastly, the open kitchen is from another orbit, with its wood-fired charcoal oven, open barbecues, and dedicated adjacent fish and meat smoking stations. We could rave on and on about it. Very special place, which easily deserves six stars.“

“We ordered the corn fritters and lunch entres. We got appetizers from ordering the lunch menu, and got vegetable soup and spring rolls. Everything was very yummy, the corn fritters are crispy and delicious. The pad thai, pad see ew was good. Thank you!! Will come back again“

“Amazing food and service!“

“Tavern 157 is an absolute gem! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a cozy ambiance that perfectly balanced charm and sophistication.

Every dish was great. The attention to detail in both presentation and taste was evident. Pair that with their impressive drink selection--especially their sangria--and you have an evening to remember.

The service was top-notch as well. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and made fantastic recommendations. They made us feel like we were the only table in the house, even though the place was buzzing.

Tavern 157 is the perfect spot for a date night, a catch-up with friends, or just indulging in amazing food. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu. A true five-star experience!“

“I’ve been here a few times and love it more and more with each visit! The seafood is so fresh and tasty and I’m happy to support a business committed to sustainable seafood sourcing. The service is also superb. The outside dining is perfect on a summer evening and the high tops provide a low key intimate setting.“

“If i could rate Fabrika 100 stars, I would! Im completely OBSESSED. Not only is the decor very cute, the food is exceptional. The service is fantastic!!! The drinks are creative and well crafted. The arepas with steak was mind blowing, SO GOOD! The crispy rice was a 20/10! The filet mignon and lobster pasta were cooked to perfection and so flavorful! The dessert was different but incredible!

“This is an absolute gem, like a small but beloved diamond! The food is incredible! The service is warm and welcoming (they clearly care). The prices are sane. And I am 2 for 2 visits where I talk about what I want to order next time! The place is very small so make a reservation.“

“Love the space! It's really inviting and our server gave a very thorough explanation of the menu. It's very easy to over order because you want to try everything, but there were hits and misses.

The Barbecue Shrimp were definitely a trip down taste memory lane. I worked at an upper westside restaurant in the 80s called Memphis that rode the Paul Prudhomme craze and it was one of our most popular dishes. These didn't disappoint. The Oysters Rockerfeller were very good too.

All of the seafood was perfectly cooked.

The big salad was way too acidic with nothing to balance the overpowering vinegar of the giardiniera. We got fried oysters on top and they were nice but there was no sauce that went with them which made them a little ho hum.

I wanted to love the shrimp sandwich because it looks absolutely DELISH -- the presentation is spot on!

The fried shrimp were nice and crispy and the milk bread was nice and light. Maybe if I hadn't already found the giardiniera too much on the salad? It's good, but could use some remoulade or another aioli to balance it.

My BF had the gumbo special. He liked it, but I thought it was a bit one note too.

The complimentary bread pudding is a nice touch.“

“I’d come back to this place over and over for their fresh clams! Randazzos is a bit far from my home but worth the trip if I’m trying to get out of the city and enjoy a homey, neighborhood feel with delicious GALAMAHHHH. Great atmosphere and great seafood“
