My boyfriend and I came here on Valentines Day and we were so happy with everything. The food was absolutely delicious. We did not have a single complaint about anything. Highly recommend coming here, we had the escargot, tuna tartar, burrata salad, hanger steak, carbonara, apple tart, and crème brûlée. Everything was amazing

Party of 4 and chose varied dishes....everyone enjoyed their food. Salad nicoise, fresh carbonara, ratatouille, hangar steak and club steak. Restaurant can be a bit crowded. Even with a reservation, we had a brief wait, but worth it.

Narrow bar upfront with tight but chill and calm vibes. Little standing room though.
Great happy hour (every day) 4:30-6:30, which give a selection of small plates and discounted wine. $12 martinis during weekends. But note: Happy Hour only applies at the narrow bar up front, not if you sit at tables in the back.

Their happy hour is THE best in the city - 4:30-6:30pm SEVEN DAYS A WEEK! I love the decor, service, food, and value for price. It feels so welcoming yet upscale. Thank you AOC East for slaying always

The food, the ambience always great but the service was not great. There was one waitress for the whole restaurant and this the second time i've been there in like 2 weeks - and she is not attentive. She got more than one thing incorrect on our order. We waited a long time for food and she forgot to put in one of our party's order. She comped some desserts which we appreciated but it was hard to roll with it this particular time.

We went on Christmas Day for our family dinner. It was absolutely PERFECT! Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious and portions were just right. Great steak, great fries, great mussels, everything was amazing! It could not have been better! We will definitely be back - totally worth it to travel to the neighborhood for AOC - just wonderful!!

The establishment has a pretty nice vibe. Myself and my wife went strictly for the cheese and charcuterie because they have a great selection. We ordered 5 out of the 10 cheeses to choose from. We also ordered 2 out of perhaps 8 charcuterie meats. They could have added a jam of some kind but they kept the bread coming thankfully! There wasn’t enough mustard and balsamic glaze on the board. We ran out pretty immediately. But If jam and dip portions are all I have to complain about I’m a pretty lucky person. Give this place a try.
A very disappointing meal. Five of us dined last night. Given the past positive reviews, we expected a decent meal. Instead, we found the food mediocre to poor and the service was inattentive and brusk. Not one of us thought the food was worth returning for. The duck confit was dry. The steak tartar resembled dog food. The mussels were poor quality (advertised as PEI). The waiter was rarely available, he mixed up our cocktail and wine orders, and he failed to prepared the steak tartar at the table as advertised. We unfortunately cannot recommend this restaurant and will not be returning.

We dine at AOC regularly. The food, wine and ambience are always good, but we have had a couple of subpar service experiences including this visit. We ordered 4 entrees and only 3 came out. The waiter apologized and took ownership of the error as he said he only put in 3 orders. He said the kitchen would rush and the 4th order would be right out. That did not happen. Two of of our party had ordered the same item of the dinner which didn't come out so they split one order and shared it. The missing entree came out when we were all done eating, and it was picked at and not finished. When our check came we were surprised to see the missing dinner charged for. We called the waiter over and he said their policy is if the meal is brought to the table we have to pay. Only then did he offer a free desert, which was after we had been asked if we wanted desert which we had declined. If they had graciously just brought desert and apologized again we would have been ok and let it go. We didn't want a scene and paid the bill although the waiter took a haircut on his tip which only seemed appropriate. AOC you need to think through how you handle issues like this.
