“Wonderful view of city skyline coupled with amazing food and services making this place a must visit. The menu is diverse from several styles of Asian cuisine, Thai, Northern Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, all with quality ingredients, cook with passion for the American palate. Their drink menu is amazing and the Lychee Martini is heavenly! Most importantly the portion great for the reasonably priced items. I would either take a cab or subway. Parking is not easy!Kid-friendliness: A place for families of all size!“
“We really enjoyed our experience at Kimika. The cocktails were amazing - unique with great flavors. I loved the kaga milk punch, shishitorita and the unami in kenmare.Dishes are a fusion of Japanese flavors in Italian style dishes, such as the sticky rice arancini served on a Japanese curry sauce. Other menu highlights were the tuna tartare, hamachi collar, truffle carbonara, rigatoni, and the steak.Dont miss the yakult soft serve for dessert!Staff were very friendly and helpful with recommendations.We were seated in a back room which felt private with so much space on the large tables.“
“10/10 highly recommend. Read about Potluck Club on the infatuation and they were spot on. Potstickers were delicious. The salt and pepper chicken was a first for me, but also delicious. And we had some noodle dish and added the hanger steak. Again delicious. Staff was so friendly and all busting their butts. Really nice to see them working as a team!“
“Fantastic cocktails,Excellent quality on classics like chive pancakes, fried soft shell grabs and mango sticky rice.Interesting dishes like short rib ramen(spicy af!), custard pumpkin dessert.Clay pot was a bit of a miss for me, but I could have unfair standards as a canto man. Not enough flavor.Overall, a delicious evening with attentive service. Would definitely come back“
“Our hotel concierge recommended this spot to us for a nice, easy casual night out. The food was delicious and flavorful - much more so than your typical Thai. The staff was pleasant and welcoming and the venue is pleasant. Definitely worth a visit.Vegetarian options: They can alter several dishes to be vegetarian. The tofu was great and flavorful.“
“Let me start off by saying, if you want to complain about prices, don't even walk in the door. To get the optimal experience at any restaurant, you have to pay to play. So expect to spend about $70-100 per person here, this is a spot you take someone on a knock-it-out-of-the-park date or group gathering, you can't be a cheapskate. Now, to the food. Vietnamese BBQ is an intimate experience. Order the 7 course beef so you can try everything while the staff explains and helps you cook your meat. The electric grills are of the highest quality, the same ones they use at high-end Japanese yakiniku places, so the smoky taste on your cooked beef will be perfect. If you want to order a la carte, I highly recommend the Tomahawk, Madame Prawns and Charred Uni. Like I said, this is a place where you share your meal with friends and family so all the food is portioned that way.“
“One of the most upscale vegan restaurants I've ever had the pleasure of going to. Terrific Asian foods with veggie flair, and unqiue cocktails to boot. Try the Bang Bang Broccoli and thank me later... its tempura heaven!Vegetarian options: An all vegan menu in midtown Manhattan!Dietary restrictions: An all vegan menu in midtown Manhattan!“
“Celebrated a birthday last week and sat outside in the private booths and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food and service!! The booths had heating and allowed our party of 6 to have a private but joyful experience!! Would highly recommend!“
“Nestled in the lively West Side, Obao is like that cool friend who knows all the culinary secrets. The beef pho? It's like a flavor explosion, but I could've gone for an extra sprinkle of bean sprouts for that extra crunch. And don't get me started on the Thai tea—it's like a sweet nostalgia trip, just a heads-up, ask for less milk if you're not big on the sweetness.My friend went for the udon noodles with shrimp, and man, it was like a savory punch in the taste buds, a bit like when two pop culture icons collided in that viral meme.To top it off, Obao surprised us with two cocktails as a thank-you for our review. They were like little works of art, not just in taste but in presentation too. Obao isn't just about food; it's about creating experiences that make you want to come back for more.“
“We went to Atoboy because hard to get the reservation of Atomix. Food is match the price of $75 prix-fixe. Only outstanding items are Stripe Bass & Korean Pear(forgot to take pictures). Better to have 3 people in a group that you could try everything. We must have Dessert due to someone birthday, but I wouldn’t suggest after we try. Atmosphere is more ideal for younger group.“
“Pecking House had some of the best fried chicken I have had in recent times. It was elevated and you could tell there is an extra level of sophistication to their chicken. Different flavors, different techniques and some Asian fusion aspects that pair so perfectly well with the classic American style fried chicken. Cornbread was excellent, dirty fried rice was also superb and the chili chicken sandwich really hit the spot. Can't wait to return to Pecking House in the future! Service was also excellent; super attentive and next level for a more casual place like this one. Don't sleep on the Peanut butter pudding!“
“It was an amazing experience that I give 5 ⭐️’s The menu was innovative and interesting and I love that the chef guides all the courses that come out of the kitchen. Being sea to table ensures the highest quality food and the technique from chef Daniel shines through in every dish. I will definitely be back!“
“Lemongrass is one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been to in the city. From the service (I hope you get Frank as your waiter <amazing>), food (Whole Red snap is goals) , atmosphere (so ig worthy)!!! Great place for couples, girls dinner etc.I promise you’ll come back to this one!!Vegetarian options: Many choicesDietary restrictions: Let them know what you’re allergic to in advance“
“I saw this place on instagram and added it to my bucket list. My husband and I traveled from Atlanta just to try The Monkey King. The atmosphere is comfortable and laid back. Our waiter was accommodating and made us feel like we were seating in VIP. We met the owner Mike. He was professional and was grateful for us traveling to Brooklyn New York to try his restaurant. The taste from each dish blew us away from the concocted herbs and spices. We will definitely return.“
“Franchia is hands-down one of the best vegan dining experinces in NYC. This restaurant has become my new favorite place to eat! The menu is comprehensive and rich with flavorful and delicious options to choose from. I really appreciate being able to select from a variety of hot teas, drinks, and desserts, too. The host, servers, and waitstaff are friendly and attentive. The interior of the restaurant itself is beautifully designed and kindles a warm and relaxing atmosphere. I'm happy every time I come here and look forward to my next visit. Best, Evan“
“The dishes at Thirty-Seven Lane are very rich and varied, and the vegetables are very fresh. The beef is recommended to be hand-cut beef. It tastes great. The crabs are still alive and delicious. The waiter Xiaokai is great. My friends and I are very happy to have the meal. Thank you San Lane 17“
“Came to NY for work and stumbled upon this GEM in downtown Brooklyn. Carlos is running an incredible Chef’s Table experience, better than any Michelin star restaurant I’ve been to in Chicago.My S.O and I had a romantic evening paired with hand picked wines from Carlos himself and an exceptional tasting menu. First time I left a fine dining experience FULL. The food was not only a work of art but an educational experience created with the highest quality ingredients available!“
“I don't know if it's a hidden gem or just a gem in the Financial district. My husband, mother in law and I had dinner here last night, and everything was fabulous. The waiter was very accommodating, as we requested hot water instead of regular cold water because of my mother in law, they were very nice and provided a beautiful teapot with small tea cups, such a cute detail! For food we shared the appetizer platter, coconut soup and a pad Thai. The food was incredible, so flavorful! The place itself is beautiful, we loved the decorations and the choice of cutlery and dishes. One can clearly notice that a lot of thought went into creating this place. I'd recommend it if you're in this area of town. 10/10“
“The food was good. The snow crab noodle was very good and had a good portion. The chicken was good but not exceptional. The eggs were a bit disappointing. The hamachi though was amazing! The beignet was good but not exceptional. The price point is reasonable although the seating situation was not good at all. Way too cramped and the space was too small“
“My family and I went to the Lobster club for dinner and in short it was amazing. The food was so unique but soo delicious, there wagyu dishes especially. Of course we had to get a lobster dish which we ended up getting two orders of, the restaurant itself is so beautiful. As soon as you walk in you see a beautiful scenery. The service was good cant complain about anything they were able to accommodate for my moms birthday and bring out a cake which was very nice and there dessert selection is very unique as well! Overall I would definitely come back, this restaurant is definitely on the pricer side but it definitely worth it once you take that first bite!“
“We ordered the lower priced ($40/person) hot pot and sushi rolls option. They brought more food than we could ever eat! It was our first time there so we weren't quite sure what we were doing, but we had a great time and left very full. We'll definitely go back next time we're in NYC! Service was a bit slow at times, especially when wanting to get the check and pay. We were there early in the evening midweek and they weren't very crowded.“
“If you're searching for a dining experience that transcends the ordinary, look no further than PF Changs! From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and hospitality. The ambiance was both inviting and elegant, setting the stage for an unforgettable meal.But what truly set this experience apart was the exceptional service provided by bartenders Quenta and Danny. Their professionalism and attentiveness elevated my visit to new heights. Their mastery of mixology was evident in every cocktail they crafted, each one a masterpiece of flavor and presentation. Their genuine enthusiasm and friendly demeanor added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening.I must also commend Giussepe, the manager, for his excellence and attentiveness. He ensured that every aspect of our dining experience was nothing short of perfection. His dedication to customer satisfaction was evident throughout the evening, and his presence only enhanced an already stellar experience.In summary, PF Changs, with its outstanding service and delectable cuisine, earns a perfect 10/10 in my book. Whether you're seeking a romantic dinner for two or a memorable night out with friends, this establishment is sure to exceed your expectations. Don't hesitate to pay them a visit—you won't be disappointed!“
“Delicious food, very friendly and lovely staff. Beautifully decorated shop If you come during the day, you can take photos in a warm corner. But if you come in the evening, the photography angle will look different and beautiful in another way.“
“Very authentic Chinese food ? I thought the prices were very reasonable, my friend and I ordered the sliced beef in chili oil and, the crab meat soup dumpling and two rice, and we left very satisfied - although some dishes on the menu can be much more expensive than what we ordered. The place is a bit cramped but that's to be expected for east village. The wait can get long also, so try to come a bit before the usual dinner time (6 ish pm on a weekday)I cannot wait to come back and try other dishes!“
“We booked this place strictly off of seeing their viral Instagram post from @righteouseats and their affiliations with the Win Son restaurant across town. I thought Win Son was a 10/10 dining experience so of course I had high expectations. Service/Ambiance:We arrived as soon as they opened, and we were quickly seated in tables for two with stool type chairs it definitely was a tight squeeze as the place quickly filled up. There is really no where to place your coat if you're sitting in this area unless you walked about 10 feet to the bar are where there was a hook on the wall. Those backless chairs quickly became an issue for my 6'2" frame. Our waitress Sharon was excellent! She was attentive and super friendly and helpful making food recommendations, etc and definitely the reason I am giving 4 stars instead of 3. Food:Food was mid for me. The toast tasted oily, the ribs were overcooked AND oily. You def needed that sauce but I wasn't going to pay $7 for a sauce sampler. The once saving grace was the rice. It was flavorful and yummy and the chicken was moist and crispy as it should be. I probably won't be visiting again and stick with Win Son restaurant and bakery.“
“Great place to eat. Friendly and big portions. I have tried most things and liked them but. My go to order is the Chicken Bimbap Bowl with Tiger Sauce. They are donating a portion of sales to Annandale Baseball on Monday 4/26 and Tuesday 4/27... Just mention Annandale at the register or in the "Special Instructions" when ordering online.“
“My family stopped in for dinner on a gloomy evening. The owner warmly greeted us after a short wait and was very attentive through out our time. We ordered a Bul Dak bowl, Sunny Avo, and Kimchi Jae Yuk bowl. Everything was very tasty and the portions were so large. We tried our best but couldn’t finish, we were stuffed. The owner was very nice, even giving our daughter a choice of handmade trinket made by his children. It was our last day in NYC but would recommend Bulbap Grill to anyone in the area.“
“We had a wonderful event at For U, the food is absolutely delicious, I keep thinking about the cucumber salad it’s so crunchy and tastes so good, the sesame noodles are flavorful and so good, delicate and delicious version of that dish, the best I have ever had. And the Peking duck is divine. It’s a wonderful place for a party, they work with you to make it really special. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the space is warm and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and will go back for dinner very soon.Dietary restrictions: Our event served vegan and vegetarian options as well as standard fare“
“Great lil Izakaya!The staff are extremely friendly and hospitalable, the food is delicious, the portion sizes are very generous, and a combination can be made if asked in advance.Definitely get the cheese corn and put some sweet soy sauce on it... And ask for the sweet and spicy sauce on the side, it makes any dish 50 times better lol.There's two other locations in New York, apparently one is in Manhattan, I'm not a local so I can't remember where the other location is... Either way I'm coming back to the Flushing location as I just really love the atmosphere, the location, and the staff...If you see the owner, tell them that the Black nerdy girl from Mississauga recommended the place and said to say hi ?“
“I'm no expert on Korean food but I do know delicious and this place definitely hit the mark. Upon walking into the place I knew it was going to be a good experience. The staff were super friendly and also helpful with food selection which I needed. The restaurant has a light and airy feel to it with a nice layout with an ability to accommodate smaller groups. The bar seating is a great choice if you're on your own or with a friend. The make all types of cocktails and have a nice selection of beers including some Korean options. The food menu offers some classic Korean dishes from what I learned. I went with the Spicy Squid Bibimbap for my main. Before that came out they brought me a free appetizer which hit the spot. I'm not certain what it all was but I didn't leave much behind. Apparently this is one of three locations. I really hope to be back again in the future. Enjoy!!“
“The food, ambiance, and service was phenomenal. Our waiter Hira heroically saved us from the flames, gave us princess treatment, was respectful and gave us extra marshmallows and napkins. We highly recommend this place and hope his dreams come true!!“
“Hand rolls here are pretty good! Portions are small but I definitely recommend giving it a try here! My favorite handrolls were the spicy tuna and the avocado salmon. The seared prime beef and the A5 Wagyu were also to die for! Every bite melts in your mouth! The spicy tuna crispy rice was ok. The rice was not crispy enough. There was 4 pieces for $12. The salmon carpaccio was really good! Love the citrus sauce that came with this dish. There was 5 slices of salmon for $16. So it was a bit overpriced. Veggie udon was really good and flavorful! Really hit the spot on a cold rainy day! Parking is a bit difficult but that's the norm in Fort Lee. Overall, fish was pretty fresh but overpriced for the portions.“
“Excellent decor, you can miss it from it's non descript exterior but once you walk through the door it opens up into a large space with fully stocked bar and a pleasing aesthetic. The beef tripe in chilli sauce is excellent and my favorite off the menu. They also give generous portions of both food and wine for a great price that doesn't break the bank.“
“Wow, what a dope experience. I already had high expectations for this place, but was still blown away by the food, the drinks and the hospitality. So much thought and flavor behind each bite and sip. This is the type of place that's gonna be the right choice regardless. Hit it up after work with co-workers, go with a group of friends, date night spot, or even a special occasion - I enjoyed my birthday dinner there tonight. Prices are reasonable and approachable, menu items are creative and delicious (the type of things you will crave to have in your life again) and the service is beyond top notch.“
“The best I have eaten in a long time, since I got Covid I started to have new allergies and had to stop eating sushi. I took a risk and gave them my trust. Incredible, super attentive, good communication, the sushi was fresh. They took all my specifications into account and were very careful about cross contaminationThank you very much I will definitely order again“
“The owners are amazing The inside is amazing you have to come there with your family very delicious beautiful food and I don't go out to a lot of restaurants but this is one of the best I've been to hospitality is awesome trust me.“
“This is our go-to fancy sushi spot. The quality and inventiveness of their dishes is amazing. Everything is absolutely delicious and so fresh! It’s pricy but worth it. Certain dishes are absolutely decadent and the stuff of dreams! My hubby says it’s the best sushi he’s had in the states since visiting Japan, so that’s saying something!!“
“My first omakase experience We got the Omakase $78/ per person and it was very delicious and filling! The chefs were excellent and friendly. Cozy and near indoor space. Fish was high quality and fresh. Melt in your mouth like butter. Definitely check it out! The highlighted ones were our favorites ?“
“It was my first time dining here with friends and the meal did not disappoint! The seafood pajeon was so crispy and the seafood/flour ratio was perfect. The braised spicy chicken was flavorful and filling. The service here was also friendly and attentive too! Our server checked on us frequently and the owner was sweet and generous, making sure we enjoyed our stay. I can’t wait to come back here!“
“Definitely not your average Thai restaurant. The whole restaurant feels like a one-man passion project, and I mean that in the most earnest way. Don't go in expecting the dishes to be whipped up instantly, but the creative food and friendly service is absolutely worth the wait.“
“It's a cozy, atmospheric place. The service is great and pleasant. Very welcoming vibe and cozy place to sit and enjoy. Staffs are polite and doesn't feel rushed like other places. Thai food is always a healthy and great selection of bubble tea.Kid-friendliness: Ambiance is playful with comfortable lighting and seating.“
“The service attitude is very good. She kept asking us if it suits our taste. I think it is very considerate. The lady has a very good service attitude. She helped us take photos and gave guidance. The food is delicious. I recommend the Pad Thai the most.“
“Came here on a whim after having a hard time deciding on a place to eat. Best decision ever as everything we ordered was delicious. The service here is great too, they train the staff here well. This spot is now a must visit whenever im in nyc. Go to orders are the Peking duck with the salt and pepper duck bones, preserved ham fried rice and szechuan string beans. Those three dishes are ? ? ?.“
“We ordered the black sesame tuna, spicy pork and egg kimbap. They all were absolutely delicious in their own unique way. The tuna was super refreshing and wasn’t heavy at all. The egg kimbap was also surprisingly very good! I like that they don’t put a lot of rice and it’s more full of their fresh ingredients. 5/5!!“
“I couldn’t wait to leave a review!!! From the food service and atmosphere, this place was a 10/10 spot to go to!!! Music was on point and my food was delicious. I’d come back here every time I visit New York!!! My favorite was the Thai chilli siracha wings. If you’re a spice/hot water, GET THEM.“
“I ordered takeout. I tried tteokbokki for the first time and it was so so good!I can’t handle spice food but the rich sauce isn’t spicy. The radishes were so delicious.The fish cake and rice cake have a neutral flavor to me but the dumplings are really tasty. The serving size is really on point. You actually feel like you get what you pay for, not less.Can’t wait to try other dishes.“
“Sensational!! For folks craving bao buns but not the meat -- this vegan shop that just opened up in Chinatown NYC is the place to be. Don't let the size scare you away. The place is spotless and the food is prepared to order. I found them by accident, but will be returning intentionally in the very near future. #Vegan #Vegetarian #HealthyFood #FreshFood“
“Had absolutely great evening in here — the atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious foods you see on the pictures were all SO GOOD! It was also great to meet the fellow Russian speaking person by the name Ayta (or Aita, unsure of the spelling) who gladly took our reservation, check in our jackets and took us to our table! Highly recommend this place!“
“The squirrel fish is really delicious, you must order it when you come here! ! ! It's so delicious. It's cooked just right, the aroma is overflowing, and the taste is mellow. You can't help but take one bite after another. It's tender and juicy, melts in your mouth, crispy and delicious, and has endless aftertaste.“
“I recently had the opportunity to photograph an event at The Penthouse, and it was an enchanting experience. The venue's open and airy space, combined with its captivating city view, created a wonderful ambiance for capturing memorable moments. The abundant natural lighting made my job as a photographer a joy. Not only was the setting visually appealing, but everyone present seemed genuinely engaged, resulting in beautiful photographs. The staff at The Penthouse provided excellent service, ensuring a seamless event. If you're seeking an enchanting venue for your photography needs, I highly recommend The Penthouse. It guarantees a delightful experience and captivating photographs.“
