“I’ve been coming to Rolo’s since they first opened and they really never disappoint. The food just gets better and better. Everything is amazing but my hands down favorite is the shrimp. I’d say it’s easily some of if not the best shrimp I’ve ever had in my life. The whole menu just compliments itself from the Calabrian chili butter to the wagyu steak. Also, Sitting in the back of the restaurant is such a cool experience because you get to watch the chefs work their magic on that wood fire grill. This is definitely one of the best restaurants in NYC and in my top 5.“
“It is a small and unique fusion Japanese restaurant.LINGO BEEF PIE, it's beef pie. It's so delicious when eaten soaked with the bread we ordered together, and it's fantastic with a glass of wine.CRISPY CAULIFLOWER, white brucoli. The seasoning was a little bit of Kkanpunggi sauce with a hint of Japanese pickled ginger... Oh~??????I ordered HOKKAIDO MILK BREAD... I ordered this to eat with beef pie! So delicious potato bread??Everything was really delicious!andI ordered a special dessert that wasn't on the menu... Sour, refreshing and sweet, it cleanses your mouth properly...(My friend who went with me likes the Chinese style soup... but he said it's not delicious! Please note)If you like Japanese-French fusion, this is perfect??????“
“I wasn’t sure what to expect-but I’mExtremely happy I dined at The Four HorsemanEntering the small establishment you are greeted with a nice doorman/host, who takes you into a small but romantic space. Details were perfect when decorating-from the original floor to the walls and art-mood lighting and light jazz on the speakers, the restaurant is very charming and romantic.The staff is meh-waitress seemed uninterested-some staff were wearing baggy long shirts/jackets that don’t work well in tight spots. As we were a table of two sitting in the middle-every time they walked by their tails of the shirt would hit us and our table. If you’re going to wear a very baggy loose shirt-tuck it in-to prevent this annoyance.No one seemed to be pressed for time-taking orders-fresh drinks-etc. the doorman stated when the next reservation was-as a warning not to linger more than 1.30 hours, but the waitstaff seemed clueless to this as it was she and her absence that kept us there almost 2 hours. Mind you-we were enjoying the wine, food, and conversation so we didn’t mind, except we had show tickets and were almost late. The waitress had an air of royalty attitude- better than us-as we are lucky she would visit our table and take our order. This is how she made me feel.Food is as delicious as beautifully plated. The atmosphere and food stole the show-the staff needs training-I’m not going to remove a star from the review for the staffing issues as the restaurant as a whole-and their food-is stellar. However, staff review is 2 stars.Came back for lunch when I was back in town-;lunch service was much better and the food was delicious, again.Kid-friendliness: Not at all-this is a different caliber restaurant where children should not be.Wheelchair accessibility: None. Not ADA compliant at all“
“The whole experience was phenomenal - starting from very warm welcome, ambience, service and especially the food. The tasting menu options were all encompassing with their best dishes and we really loved all of them. The desert experience was out of the world! Lastly we would like to note a special mention for Javier (captain for our section) - he made sure we had the best experience on a special day including a kitchen tour! Overall totally loved the Michelin 2 experience at Daniel’s and we would highly recommend it.“
“The place is beautiful and very well decorated. We were there for Saturday morning brunch. I recommend the American breakfast which is well served for the price. The meat and potatoes are well seasoned. The bread basket is a little expensive for what’s inside, especially for a French person :)“
“Lovely people, lovely place, incredibly delicious food! Ingredients are very fresh, often from the local farmers market. There are both very creative dishes and classics on the menu. The Queensboro is a special restaurant that not only cares about the quality of their food and atmosphere, but also sincerely cares about the community.Kid-friendliness: Roomy and fun space that is very comfortable for those bringing children. The staff is super friendly with children as well!“
“I celebrated my birthday dinner at Francie and I'm so happy I did. Everything was perfect. The staff is friendly and attentative. The atmosphere was very chill for a Michelin restaurant. I loved all of my food. The duck was definitely my favorite and worth the price.“
“My husband and I were visiting from Seattle and had been told this was a must try and we were not disappointed. The restaurant itself is busy but cozy and cool. Every dish we had was incredible. Scott and his front of house staff were an absolute delight. It was our anniversary and they definitely made us feel special. We'll be back for sure! Pro tip - make a point to hit their bakery across the street as well. The mochi donut is where it's at.“
“Excellent execution of every dish we got, good drinks, amazing food and the right vibe. Everyone was so nice and the chef kept sending us samples of other stuff so my friends in town were very pleased. Would definitely come back! we loved the liver mouse and the chicken is amazing!“
“1. The food was incredible. We inhaled it.2. This is the nicest staff I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I told Lauren, the host, that I was visiting from Chicago and she pulled together a list of 10 recommendations to check out nearby.I will make sure to stop in every time I visit Brooklyn!“
“Traif is so outstanding that it reminds me, despite our crumbling society, that there is a beacon of hope, a light at the end of the tunnel in the form of a chef’s tasting menu, where each dish is so flavorful, so delicious, that I shed not one, but several tears that maybe, just maybe, humanity has a chance of food this good still exists.“
“I love this original location of p.j. clarkes! i've been here so many times it's hard to rate just one time. the service is always on point and the food is consistent. an elevated gastropub menu focused on a raw/chilled bar. but don't skip the burger and the chicken pot pie, both is which are fantastic. the bar area is first come, first serve, and reservations are taken for the main dining. even without a reservation a wait for a table isn't that bad. plus the red and white checker table cloth is such a fun novelty. oh and did I mention the martinis are big, nice, and cold?“
“Best experience!! We had a private event at American Brass in January for about 20 people. Everything was perfect! The restaurant is gorgeous, and the food was delicious! We loved the style and atmosphere of the restaurant. Our menu included a champagne toast, appetizers, their amazing focaccia bread, steak frites, the polenta, passed desserts, and a cake. They were also able to accommodate a vegetarian option. It was all so good!! Everyone really loved their food, as well as drinks at the bar afterwards! The staff are all incredibly friendly and accommodating. Tegwyth, American Brass’s Events Manager, was so thoughtful and instrumental to planning our event! She worked closely with us for months leading up to the party and had great suggestions. Ellen, American Brass’s Executive Pastry Chef, made us the most beautiful and delicious cake. Everyone was raving about the cake! Juan, our server, was also phenomenal and went above and beyond. The restaurant is directly across from the Gantry Park Piers, great for photos. Everything was beautiful and polished. It felt fancy and well put together. Highly recommend American Brass and their team for small weddings and events! Thank you again!“
“Williamsburg needed this vibe. My friends and I were in the neighborhood and stumbled upon this place. Had a large party of 10 and they were able to accommodate. Food was 10/10 and atmosphere was 10/10. Didn’t realize they had an upstairs and rooftop as well. Will definitely come back when it’s warmer for the rooftop. Also, I rate bathrooms and give them 10/10, since there were no lines with as busy at it was and they had many. Dane and Josh went out of their way to ensure everyone was taken care of.“
“Emma the hostess was so kind and so attentive!! Went above and beyond to seat us. I feel so desensitized to nyc culture but Emma as well as the full staff at Santa Fe BK gave me FAITH! KINDNESS WINS!!!Frfr the warm ambiance environment matches the warm employees“
“Otis is a go-to staple in the neighborhood that I bring all of my guests to! I haven’t yet had a dish I didn’t love. Most recently, I visited with someone who wasn’t so sure about mussels. Otis has one of the best mussel dishes I’ve ever had; the mussel-questioner left with a new outlook on how good they can be. Burrata is also a go-to favorite. The bread is made in-house and so delicious…. And the cocktails are fabulous too! The staff and service is the cherry on top. Big love to Otis!“
“There are not enough stars for this place!! It’s beyond any expectations! I will start with the atmosphere. It is cozy, European, comfortable, and like home!Food- I tried more different things, and honestly, I don’t know what I could recommend here; everything is so delicious, and I enjoyed every piece!Drinks- unique, fantastic mix, gives you an even better experience of all I already mentioneddService - people who work here make you feel comfortable, and they are ready for all your questions about food and drinks. Just ask them if you are not sure, and they will give you the best recommendation!!All in all, I suggest you to try this place! From my heart, I recommend this restaurant!“
“We had eaten atWe had eaten at Winona’s before and really enjoyed it but when we heard there was a new chef at the helm, we were very hesitant the food would take a turn for the worse. Happy to report we were VERY wrong.Chef Dan Gonzalez is making a really tasty and surprising menu! Every dish was thought out with care and so incredibly tasty. Each new item brought a surprise and delight.The Hake with celery was stunning, the cavatelli with lamb was exceptional, the salad was a star too - flavor in every component! We also opted for a special that was a pasta with uni and citrus with some peppers and it was truly a memorable, delicious dish.In addition to the amazing food, the service was excellent too. Knowledgeable, kind and low key. They were attentive but not overbearing or pushy. We had a late guest in our party and they were so sweet about checking in with us.The space is also cute, so really this is a 10/10 experience.Highly recommend and so excited to come back to try more of Chef Dans incredible food!“
“We sat outside. The service was great! They brought us the wrong cocktails and replaced them right away and gave us the first ones as courtesy. It’s not 5 stars because I don’t know how I feel about the big piece of beet in my burger. I thought it was gonna be pickled or treated somehow. Good overall :)“
“Food is really good here, literally every bite was delicious. We went for brunch, had the French toast brulee, squid sandwich, sausage egg & cheese sandwich, cheddar Biscuit ... everything was top notch, bread and buns freshly baked! The drinks were fantastic, bloody mary, lime and salt mocktail. Service was excellent quick, efficient. We're definitely coming back very soon!Kid-friendliness: The accommodated our infant and stroller easily!“
“Had a wonderful brunch here, which was very filling. The ricotta toast was delicious and had the perfect amount of sweetness to the dish. The drinks and main entrées were also very good. Would recommend this place for anyone looking for a good brunch spot to meet up with family/friends.“
“Everything about this place was great. We did brunch. We were late but they were very accommodating even with a packed house. Bottomless drinks was great. They were constantly refilling our glasses and we were able to make the most out of it. Food was delicious too. Pancake burger was a must try. Will go back again.“
“100% SOLD ALL. THE. TIME. This is my go-to spot when I want to have something a little special and the price point fits within my budget. No matter the dish, it always hits the spot and I'm always pleased that I'm paying for a dish that isn't outrageous compared to other restaurants in the area that are serving similar items. I also appreciate the service - everyone is friendly ans offers great suggestions. Specials are always worth visiting again and again. GO!!“
“SEARCH NO MORE for your next intimate & fun party venue! CHARLIE'S, The Bonnie's sister bar right next door was everything I dreamed of and more for my 30th Birthday party. Let me set the scene for ya'll... 35 of my closest friends, Game of Thrones themed decor & fits, cocktails that made everyone say "I drink and I know things" and the most fire food in the neighborhood... the party was a SLAY. Tali, the company's event coordinator, is the sweetest, most hard-working, and detail-oriented, especially when it comes to your event. She even went above and beyond to surprise me with a GOT themed menu by naming my cocktails after details of life. For example, she named the spicy margarita after my dog, "Kevyn the Kingslayer." COME ON! How amazing is that?!Speaking of cocktails... the incredible bartender, Olivia, bartended Red Witch magic with the amazing cocktails she made for everyone. She even dressed along with the theme, with her sword, serving vibes that was giving Night's Watch combined with Red Keep of the Bar. Everyone kept raving about every cocktail she made with style and care.When it comes to the food, The Bonnie always delivers, so of course my hopes were high for Charlie's. AND MY HOPES WERE MET! The ham and cheese toastie platter was delicious. The franks in a blanket were some of the best I've ever had. The beef sliders were a HUGE hit. And there were veggie options so we had the veggie quesadilla and the mac and cheese bites which were a crowd favorite.Overall, this party at Charlie's made me feel like Daenerys Targaryen on top of her Throne, like the Queen that was promised. Thank you to the Bonnie's manager Gerard for popping in to see if everything was going smoothly as well! That was so sweet. To The Bonnie/Charlie's staff - Tali, Olivia, Gerard, barbacks - Marvin & Pascual, and the talented chefs/kitchen staff, thank you so much! Your hospitality is EPIC!“
“AMAZING EXPERIENCEThe hostess and manager were kind enough to seat us despite a late arrival a few minutes after the kitchen was scheduled to close. This superior hospitality was our theme throughout the evening. The server ANFERNEE was prompt, professional, and polite while attending all of our needs. TEXAS-sized portions reminded us back home. Delicious food, tasty cocktails, and wonderful music made this a night to remember.Vegetarian options: The jerk cauliflower was spicy and delicious. The asparagus was roasted to perfection. The mashed potatoes were buttery, creamy goodness.“
“Got there at 6 on a Thursday, waited 2 hours for a table for 2. Mozzarella sticks and ribs were amazing. Wings, burger, and ice cream sundae were fine. Service was great, and I loved the atmosphere, it was loud as hell so some people may not like that but I have no issue.“
“Amazing breakfast sandwich. Chicken sausage was so good and flavorful, spicy mayo was perfect. Perfectly toasted brioche was the cherry on top. They have a full menu and specials like corn bread french toast and shrimp and grits, will try that next time. Cappuccino was really good. Few seats inside, handful of tables outside. Food was made to order and unexpectedly very quickly. We left and almost came back to get something to go for lunch. Staff went above and beyond to welcome us in... definitely recommend“
“Obsessed. Modern Love is just amazing - best vegan cheese I've ever had. The eggplant parm changed my life. I'm a native new yorker and huge foodie and Modern Love is just truly the real deal - go immediately, whether you're vegan or not!!“
“The food here was a hit or miss. I was extremely excited for the fried oysters, but the ones we received were small and tasted bitter and musky.The clam toast on the other hand, was spectacularly seasoned and cooked to perfection.I would also recommend getting the citrus salad, squash with taleggio, and the olive oil cake!You could forgo the olive oil cake and the oysters, but please get the clam toast.We ordered a total of 5 appetizers and a dessert and the service took an hour and a half, so make of that what you will.“
“I pass the Penrose frequently, a block from the 2nd Ave Q entrance on 83rd. It is a perfect spot to meet up after work for drinks and snacks. Good music, friendly atmosphere. I tell everyone, my husband and I had brunch with our wedding party there. Great place. Recently my dad passed, and when trying to decide where to celebrate his life with extended family and friends my sister and I decided on The Penrose and emailed the events manager Chaya. She helped with everything, never got tired or short with her answers. We would think of all our questions after we signed off. Chaya made recommendations, helped our ideas come to life, and made a difficult moment easy. Day of memorial: Chaya and her team created the perfect atmosphere. Our server Emma and bartender Audrey were exceptional. The guests kept telling us what great service, atmosphere and food, but repeated to us how great the servers were. We had 30 people, in the back area with tables and bar seating. Chaya helped us choose the right amount of food, and beverages. Emma kept the area clean with out being intrussive, Audrey kept us “hydrated”. We had a buffet food area - food was great!They put to go boxes out for guest to take treats home. Thanks to Chaya we were able to truly celebrate dad, she had his play list, which we provided pumped in and a slide show with his great life moments on the screen over the bar. He served in WWII, a decorated war hero, with great taste in music. They also insured the Honor Guard ceremony, presenting flag and playing of taps went off seamlessly. As I said in my first paragraph The Penrose is a great place, but on this day it was exceptional. Chaya, Emma, and Audrey turned my dads celebration of life into a warm family moment that we will remember fondly and proudly. Thank you Chaya, Emma, and Audrey! If missed names for behind the scenes peeps sorry.“
“Cute place near botanical gardens with open kitchen.Good oysters, great happy hour, solid wine menu.We had their special (soft shell crab), salmon tartare and burger. All were really good, the burger especially.Service is very solid, atmosphere can be a little loud but doable. Overall great value for money.“
“Really nice place. Felt very welcome from the moment we walked in! There was a short wait as they were fully booked. We were sat on our table and our waiting Andre! He was amazing ! Answered all our questions and even game some recommendations !Corn bread ? the best I’ve ever had. And Andre even gave us a couple extra! ??Food overall was really good ! Chicken was brilliant!Rum punch is a must. Complemented our meal nicely ?I will ? % come back next time I’m in New York!“
“The smoked salmon on sourdough was good. My friends enjoyed the fried chicken sandwich and huevos rancheros.Our situation was a bit weird. We'd booked a table on the patio for my friend's birthday and we were on time for the reservation, but for some reason they gave our table away. They asked us to sit at a table inside by the bathrooms instead. We said we would prefer to wait for the table we booked outside, and we waited about 40 minutes. Once we sat down, everything was fine, just could've been a better experience.“
“The staff is super friendly and attentive.The place is quite large and very well distributed. The seats are comfortable, ensuring a good experience.The food is impressive, it left me speechless.The ribs were super tender and the flavor was very good.The macaroni and cheese that we ordered on the side was to die for. I just needed to eat the plate.The chicken wings, very good.But the spicy ones are not suitable for all audiences, since YES, they are very spicy. Your mouth burns.But the taste is very good.“
“The only good bar in the entire neighborhood, and great overall. It's the oldest bar in NYC (aside from one in Wall St.) - You might recognize it from GoodFellas.Worth going out of your way for the history, and worth coming to just because. They play the sports games with the volume on. Have to love it.“
“The new menu at Faun is exciting and creative. We had every dish on the menu. Always get the foccacia, the hamachi, and eggplant. The pastas were delicious, especially the duck confit pasta. The mushroom dish was amazing, and also the pork and beef. Desserts were perfectly light and not too sweet! Chocolate cake and semifreddo, and ginger cake!“
“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.“
“I've been loving La Sandwicherie since their original food cart operation by McCarren Park. So glad they opened an official shop! The menu is well curated, all ingredients are quality, sandwiches are made to order and everything I’ve ever had here tastes fresh and delicious.“
“We came in by accident when we were riding a ferry from Manhattan. It's a great place. I really liked it here. Interior , dishes . The waiter served us quickly and advised us to try the fish, as I said that I love fish. Indeed, the food here is delicious, so I would like to recommend the restaurant to friends.“
“Lady provided great service? Food, drinks were all delicious. Had fries and fried shrimp to start. Salmon and fried rice both infused. Fried rice wasn’t as flavorful as I wanted but salmon was cooked perfectly with great taste. The lemonade and strawberry cheesecake were both sweet and yummy. I will definitely return next “
“We were a table of 5 , it was my nephews 18th birthday . We were a bit late due there was a barricade due to the presidential motorcade. They were so nice about it and still seated us. I went for lunch . I personally had the smith bar steak and side greens . I also had the tomato soup and Mac and cheese and hot fudge sundae . Everyone in our party enjoyed their food. The waiter was nice and even took our picture when I asked . we had a nice time . I would go back here again. the place was cute“
“I never write reviews but I had to make the exception for Bar Room. I came in on a whim for the first time last year and have been returning as often as possible. Siobhan the bartender has been great ! She makes amazing cocktails and even better conversation. What I tell my friends is come for the drinks, stay for the bartenders. With a combination of staff and amazing drinks this will be my regular spot for a long time.“
“Early March my and wife and I held a baby shower there. They were extremely accommodating with us and our guest. They also were very friendly and it worked out very well. We had families and most of the ladies at the tables and we had filled the bar with our drinkers and younger crowd.Music was good/ food was good / service was great! Anne was such a great manager worked hand in hand with our coordinator to make that day such a great experience.Overall 10/10 would highly recommend your next event there.“
“Olmsted had been on my list since I first read about it in Condé Nast Traveler so I was excited for my first venture into Brooklyn as I usually spend time in Manhattan. I was well on my way until I got on the wrong train and realized to my dismay that I was going to be 45 minutes late! I tried calling the restaurant but was directed to email them which further stressed me out because I assumed I would have to make alternate plans.As soon as I entered, I apologized profusely to Michaela and she calmed me down immediately be explaining that even seasoned New Yorkers sometimes get on the wrong train. She did everything she could and secured me a seat at the bar. I was so grateful! As soon as I sat down, Mark, the bartender laughed and joked with me about my experience and soon after I was greeted by my waiter Greg, who was fantastic and by the end of the night, I was just in awe of the hospitality of the entire staff.The ambiance was warm and inviting and the curated playlist with artists ranging from Amy Winehouse to Corrine Bailey Rae and Outkast, created an invigorating and lively atmosphere.For drinks, I started with The Fennel which was really good, but the showstopper was Greg's creation which will soon be featured, "The Cucumber". It was fire and aesthetically pleasing!I like that you have an option for either the a la carte menu or the tasting menu and I chose the tasting menu and added on the pumpkin kouign-amann. The dishes were all delicious except I was not too crazy about the rutabaga tagliatelle.Olmsted is truly a neighborhood gem and not to be overlooked.“
“Ten out of ten would recommend !! I went with four friends & we all enjoyed ourselves. It wasn't busy at all on a Tuesday night. This place is still fairly new, opened less than a year ago. The vibes, the decore, the service were all A+ ! I know a few of the reviews mentioned the choice in music but we didn't mind it at all. It was a mix of soft jazz, soul music etc. The volume was perfect, table conversation not a problem. The owner was nice enough to come introduced himself, take in our feedback in offering vegan dishes on the menu. I wasn't able to eat anything other than the vegan appetizer they offered but my friends enjoyed the dishes they ordered. I wouldn't mind coming back here again at all as it's a SEXY chill spot with great vibes & drinks. Nice addition to the neighborhood! P.S Bring your wallets, this place isn't cheap =) Enjoy !!“
“Food: If you want to make your palate happy, this is a great neighborhood spot. Brunch: The steaks and eggs are well seasoned and always cooked to the requested temperature. Happy Hour: This is my favorite because you can't beat $1.50 for fresh oysters and beer. Service: The servers are attentive, and the bartenders are friendly. I love there is usually a basketball game on the screen. Ambiance: During the weekend, it is busy and can be a bit noisy if you are sitting at a table. I prefer the bar-top tables towards the back because I prefer hearing the people at my table. During the weekdays, it is a quieter and cute place to have a date night or get caught up with friends.“
“This place is such a great addition to the neighborhood. Great music with tons of music memorabilia to look at. Excellent food and drink but the real draw is the atmosphere. The owners are awesome too - they just want everyone to have a good time.“
“Birthday dinner for my husband! Our first time dining here! Amanda, our server was outstanding! She gave recommendations that were superb. We ordered from the Lenten menu the shrimp pappardelle and the scallop risotto. Both dishes were delicious and plentiful. Service was on point, friendly and professional. Sam, a manager, greeted us at the table to make sure we had everything we needed. Birthday dessert was on the house and delicious. I would highly recommend The Harrison!“
“I stopped doing reviews in maps, but after eating this dish I felt I had to share this hidden gem. The medium rare stake is one of the best meat dishes I have tasted lately. High quality meat, well cooked and the cauliflower combination is a gift to the soul. Definitely if you go you need to try “
“Had such a great dinner at Rice Bowl yesterday! Monica, our waiter was kind and attentive. We always come for the calamari, j*** pork, and garlic chicken fried rice, this time had veggie lo mein and roast lamb as well. The atmosphere can be hit or miss - sometimes its more of a bar scene and can get loud. Yesterday, however, it was comfortably ambient.Consistently good food, excellent service, and unique flavor makes this a must every time I'm in town.“
