Repeat guest, both times have exceeded expectations. The food is creative and well executed, even if a dish wasn’t my preference - I could agreed it was done perfectly. The flavors are always interesting but still really good tasting. Oh and don’t skip mocktails or caviar hand roll. Warm and friendly service. Not stuffy.

This place has managed to capture the magic of gourmet new American cuisine, lower east side clientele, and that feeling you get when the ownership and staff make you feel like this place belongs to you. Three food is incredible, the vibe is stellar, and the staff make this place unforgettable. Service was top notch and it was just really fun. I highly recommend sitting at the bar where you will no doubt be entertained by the bar tender, the staff, the owners, and anyone who chooses to sit at the bar. We will return and we can't wait to see what they've changed on the menu that'll surely delight.

Lovely experience. A few of the courses, such as the taco and supplemental caviar hand roll were stellar! Others, the pork loin in particular, just so so. Service was spot on. The kitchen accidentally left the uni off the tacos. No biggie. Quickly remedied. They took it off the bill without evening bringing attention to it. Above and beyond in my book! 4.5 stars if I could.

This place is awesome. One of the better prefixes options in the city. Have to get the caviar hand roll add on. Great selection of drinks and wines.

Excellent food in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The caviar roll is a unique and must-have accoutrement. My other favorite dish was the breakfast taco.
This is a lesser-known fine dining restaurant, but it's one of the better meals I have had in NYC in the past few years.

Honestly, it was good but not exceptional. The caviar handroll was really great, the rest were all good but nothing stood out. Service a bit overenthusiastic.

This was the best dining experience of my life. I came to 63 Clinton for my 25th birthday dinner with my best friends and we were just in awe of the amazing food and the incomparable hospitality. Christine was our main server and she was just the best. Every single person who came to our table was so kind and welcoming. The sommelier was also iconic (I was chosen to taste the wine for the table and in my head I was like “omg I don’t how to taste wine like an expert” and I think he noticed I was nervous. And reassuredly, he went, “Its no big deal” and after that I felt so seen and validated so thank you for that.) This was my first Michelin star fine dining experience and the 63 Clinton team made me feel so safe and comfortable and like I belonged. We really felt taken care of and special. We had so much fun talking to Christine, Raymond, and the rest of the team throughout our meal. It was great getting to know you all. Thank you so much for your wonderful service. This dining experience was one of the highlights of my life.

The indulgence and lack of regard for the caviar's origin in the famous handroll just feels like a gimmick to capitalize on the desire to impress.
The service was warm and friendly though.

Food was a bit mediocre compared to the price, but the service was really good.
TL;DR: Compelling price point for 7-course but ultimately expected more. Didn’t like the initial wait (40 min) between seating and the first course. Rotating servers was confusing. Food - apart from a few dishes - was just okay.
…
Was excited to try this spot but left feeling lukewarm. The food was okay. I wasn’t sure what the exact theme or focus of the menu was, and so each item felt a bit random. Presentation was nice, but the flavors overall just didn’t quite… mesh or do much for me. Breakfast taco concept sounded fun, but a flour tortilla with some crisped potato covered in fish roe was odd and salty. I’d have appreciated a little bit of an intro explanation as to what the chefs were thinking about when pulling the menu together.
To be fair, a few were good. The notable dishes were the grilled pork tenderloin (yum), tempura squash blossom (enjoyed the airy crunch), and the goat milk ice cream. The caviar with the ice cream for the sweet and salty combo was especially genius. Great textures and delightful contrasts in my favorites. But everything else was just okay, which was surprising considering this is a Michelin-starred restaurant.
The service was a problem - but it wasn’t exactly a server issue. It’s more about the timing of things coming out and the beginning wait. We came on time for our reservation, sat down, was served water, and then just waited. And waited. Put in our drink order. Waited another 10 minutes. By now we were 40 minutes into our reservation with one drink on hand and zero food. I’d have appreciated even some bread or something to snack on rather than sit at an empty table for that long. I think it’s reasonable to either receive the first course or some kind of notice about how long things will take by the 20-ish minute mark. Neither happened.
Meanwhile, our first server was off talking about wines to other guests but not revisiting our table, which made us feel overlooked. I don’t think it was intentional because it seems like all the servers were rotating through tables, but this system wasn’t clear until later. Ultimately the service improved by the end, so I appreciate that. The servers individually were conversational, cheerful, and lovely. However, I’d have preferred one dedicated server OR, if you’re going to continue with the rotating servers, simply clearer communication.
I’m sorry to say that the rough start colored the rest of the meal, and the food was inventive but not quite hitting the mark for what I’d expect at this price point. Also, the wines by glass were a bit pricey relative to the meal (in the $20-30 range). With great reviews and a set 7-course meal that is $117/person (which is a compelling price point), I did hope for either outstanding food or service. It’s just one person’s opinion, but I left feeling a little disappointed. I believe in the restaurant’s potential and know I’m maybe the minority in the sea of positive reviews. I just think that when it comes to NYC and such a competitive food scene, I hoped for more at Sixty Three Clinton.
