Had dinner at the bar last night. Food was excellent as always, and the bartenders are pros. Strongly recommend the duck liver parfait and schnitzel.

I took a seat in the bar area. Was asked if I wanted a drink. I was brought a drink menu and I asked for a food menu. I wanted dinner.I was abandoned for 40 minutes. No menu came. No other staff member asked if I needed anything despite the drink menu sitting there and no drink was in front of me.Several food and drink deliveries happened around me.No eye contact. No interest if I needed anything.I walked out and found dinner nearby where there was actual service.

Made a reservation weeks in advance. When we got there, we were asked to wait bc our table wasn’t ready. After 40 minutes of waiting we decided to leave. Yes, they offered us drinks on the house. No, it doesn’t make up for the mismanagement and our wasted time. We didn’t accept the drinks & left.

The food was excellent as well as the service. Congratulations to Rene our server, he did an exceptional job and made our night more than enjoyable.
Walked in in between lunch and dinner, the host told us that they’re closed but offer a “$30 smash burger and fries”… why someone mentions the burger is $30 was strange enough already, but whatever... Then he says “it’s actually a good deal for New York City”. Keep in mind I’m born and raised in this city ?.

TLDR: Replacing what was The Breslin is now Koloman. This is a very European restaurant. I've only been for lunch but for this level of dining, probably one of the better prefixe menus. I think the focaccia is worth it and for my selections, tartare, schnitzel and strudel.I went through a week of just eating a lot of fancy lunches solo. This day I hit up Koloman as I was curious about their prefixe for awhile.I added the warm pumpkin focaccia and yeah - that was tasty. Definitely rubbed in plenty of oil but it was nicely crispy on the outside but oh so fluffy on the inside. That butter was something else too.For the selections I started with the tartare. Typical french preparation, not too eggy or rich. Adequate acidity and very flavorful.Schnitzel. I wanted to like this a bit more but it was still good. The schnitzel coating was quite thin but maybe the way it was plated on top of each other - it kind of steamed out the coating and it just fell off. I liked the warm potato salad that accompanied it. I still am not a fan of lingonberry but I can appreciate it.Strudle. Very thin layers, tasty but maybe too much powdered sugar for my preference.Overall - I liked the food enough that Id' be back and maybe try some other things on the menu. Standout for me on this meal though? Focaccia, tartare.

Rounding up a bit from 4.5 stars. The place is super solid and well run. Service is great and competent from bar area (which is very attractive) to host desk to a great server at our table. The cocktail program is very good. Various apps (beef and tuna tartare, frog legs!) hit the spot w/o being super memorable. The schnitzel seems to be a star although the other diners were happy with their choices too (w/o being overjoyed). The desserts — chocolate and apple — were great and came with delicious ice cream. Well done!

This is not a French restaurant. It is a modern restaurant with an Austrian focused menu with a wine list that has many French wines and some very good Austrian ones. Markus Glocker is a terrific chef who doesn’t need to be labeled French when his Austrian dishes are so good.

The Surf & Turf Burger (with fries) during Martini Hour (4–6 PM every day) ain’t an awful deal, in this day and age.
Second time at Koloman. Amazing dinner. Service was very attentive.
