I came in here to do a bit of work on my laptop, not expecting much. I had a hummus bowl and it would give Istanbul a run for its money. The servers were top class. Eloissa and James in particular. The white wine was dry and premium. A truly great operation.

The food is the best part of this and in my opinion just worth grabbing a few bites of. We got a Banter bowl and a chicken Parma.
The banter bowl literally looked like a cornucopia - and everything was fresh and well prepared. It was so SO good that it literally made us decide that we need to come back.
The chicken Parma was delicious, with the ham layered on it - it’s great for a meal. It comes on a bed of seasoned fries that were also done really well.
Paired with decently priced beer at $6 on the low end this place is really a great value for what you pay.

You'll find all your expectations met or exceeded here. Their food comes in quantities that work well for sharing. This restaurant created moments of pure culinary alchemy! The restaurant had no empty tables on Sunday so we understood. I'll make this a frequent destination.

Banter NYC is a gem in the city! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, with plenty of creative twists on brunch favorites. The vibe is warm and welcoming—perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a relaxed brunch. Service is attentive without being overbearing, and the coffee is top-notch.

Best chicken sandwich ever (weirdly enough it’s always better in the morning then at night). My girlfriend loves the banana bread and eggs.

A good option for happy hours if you're in Murray Hill/ midtown. $6 drafts and cocktails for $8-$12.. their espresso martini is pretty good.. the pineapple upside down cocktail was meh - watered down, didn't really taste the ingredients much.. their shishito peppers were outstanding! There was a miso lemon glaze on them that made the peppers an unami bomb! This aside, their lemon curd pavlova and nutella chocolate bars were brilliant!
1. Arrived close to noon. Asked to see the menu. Liked the options. Was told to sit anywhere. +1 2. I asked to replace sparkling water for a mimosa. No issues. +1. 3. Ordered breakfast combo. Delivered hot, tasty and fresh in less than 5 min! +3 4. Not followed up (Want another drink? How is your meal? Need anything else? -1 5. When done was asked if there was anything else. I said I may order a coffee @ 12:20. Was 12:25 and no check up on me. -1 6. Ordered a Cappuccino. No half-&-half available. -.5 7. The coffee was still good. +1
Final Score: +3.5
Was a delicious meal in a clean restaurant with great lighting and temperature, and below normal ambient levels. All waitresses smiled anytime they conversed with me, and one even gave me a summary of the many offers they have in the evening, different ones according to the day. I am sure i’ll be back :)

I made a reservation for a table of five for a group of PhD alumni who hadn’t seen each other in a while, and this spot turned out to be perfect! The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting—ideal for catching up and having meaningful conversations. There were plenty of vegetarian options, and the snack plates were generous and easy to share. A standout feature was the happy hour, which included the full wine menu—featuring some lovely Australian selections. Staff here was very welcoming and friendly. I’d absolutely recommend this place for a group get-together, whether it’s a casual meet-up or a small academic reunion.

Food is pretty ok - nothing special. The service, however, is HORRENDOUS. My family went for dinner on a week night and the restaurant was relatively empty. Our drinks and appetizers arrived in a reasonable amount of time, though our entrees took over 35 minutes to arrive after we finished eating the apps. Our waitress was kind and acknowledged our long wait time and we tipped appropriately as we assumed it was out of her control. Very disappointing experience and unfortunately I would not recommend.
