New American Restaurants in New York, NY

“My dining experience at Minetta Tavern was impeccable.My friend and I had Fois Gras and Oysters as Appetizers, Strak Frites and Minetta Burger for our entrees, and topped it up with their delicious Soufflé for two.Everything was truly incredible, from the lively and yet cozy atmosphere, to the outstanding quality of food, and flawless service.It was my first time and will definitely be back for more.A huge thank you to the whole team again!“

“Very affordable restaurant, highly recommended“

“My very favorite place to go for a special occasion. Every single dish is amazing. The choice of cocktails with fresh infusions is amazing. Note that you do not have to save room for dessert, because it is not quite as good as the other courses. And the family style is so fun!“

“?? We were the last party arriving at 9pm on a Monday night. We sat at the bar and were served by Sebastian. The place lets you bring your own bottle of wine for a $50 cork fee which is so unique and great for a Michelin Star restaurant, and they don't make you feel cheap for doing it either. From start to finish the food was just so so so good, the atmosphere and service were absolutely perfect. I'll remember that triple fish first course till I'm 100 years old, especially the trout. Just wow. The beef with the potato made you feel at home with a touch of uniqueness. The dessert was perfectly balanced with some of the best blueberries ever. So glad we picked this restaurant for our night out in NY.“

“Strongly recommended! Perfect meal. Every dish was perfect mixed of flavors; and portions. And the service added on the amazingness of this place. We are looking forward to next season’s menu.“

“We came with a friend and got to try most of the items. For three people, we shared some appetizers —— the seeded bread (7/10), scallops 7.5/10, duck bun (6/10), bucatini (7.5/10).The entrees were much better than the appetizers. Got the halibut, bbq pork, and duck breast. All were delicious, but the duck was definitely the best. Would come back for the main courses. Mille feuille was good too, not picturedCocktails were not memorable. Interior was beautiful!“

“Coming from Minnesota, I've only heard about David Chang's restaurants. I had the Garlic Chicken Ramen and my wife had the Asparagus special of the day. Both were excellent in both taste and presentation. Well worth the trip and surprisingly affordable.“

“Everything was good, but the consensus between my friends and I were that we weren't really wowed by anything besides the desserts.For a group of 4, ordered 8 dishes (mostly heavier ones), 3 desserts, and 4 drinks, and we were all satiated.“

“Have room for desert as you will be there for a hour or 2 talking with a nice atmosphere and delicious food. Recommend going after 6PM for the candles and a nice scenery of the restaurant. There's a bar, viewable kitchen, and prices can be expensive on your dish so careful on the buying. A recommended party of 3+ to sit and have fun as a late night out with friends. Really good customer service as they can engage chats and help with dishes if any allergies or issues.“

“Cool place and enjoy the food, drink , enironment.“

“Cute place with better than average tapas. On the pricier side, especially with the portion size. I called ahead and also put in the reservation notes that our table was celebrating a birthday, so to please put a candle in the dessert we were going to order. Unfortunately the staff forgot, so I had to remind them in front of the birthday girl which was awkward. Food was good tho, with some standouts and flops: -duck croquettes (7.5/10); really crispy on the outside with a savory cheesy duck filling. the sauce it came with was good -dbboki with ham (6/10); I would skip, it's not particularly good or unique. The rice cake was crispy and the honey was a good touch but nothing to rave about. -mushrooms (8/10); MUST ORDER. never had such savory and "meaty" tasting mushrooms -uni soba (7/10); uni was fresh, noodles were good texture, but the flavor is overwhelmingly sesame oil -oxtail (4/10); this did not do it for me and my table. the meat was almost a jerky consistency, so it was extremely hard to eat off the bone. it was salty -branzino (8/10); another must order! The sweet potato sauce is divine and the crispy skin on the dish is amazing Sides & others were all solid, the nori rice and beats were really good.“

“Since it opened, I've come here a few times for the occasional work dinner or special occasion. Revisited Marc Forgione for the first time in a while and I can say it never disappoints me. The food and service are consistently and reliably exceptional. It's difficult to choose a favorite dish. The meal seems to get better and better with each course, but the highlights were sun choke and caviar special, Hiramasa and the Halibut.“

“Very lovely spot for a quick bite or a lovely chat with friends and beverages. Has a late night menu to ensure you’re not starving on your walk home.“

“Loved everything about it! We sat at the bar, Justin was fantastic. Friendly people and great food!! Highly recommend.“

“It's easy to put labels like fusion or new asian American it's different when you see and taste and feel what it all means, and that's what I found out in my first bite. It's either scallion pancake elevates into French pastry, or tartare acts like dumplings, something different but they also feel they should be together for a long time. It's a magical flavor.“

“great place located in Brooklyn. come out and support!“

“Gotta be the best Carrot Dish ever! JP helped us pair the wine. Riesling with Carrot, of course. Great evening with inventive cuisine. One surprise after the next. Lobster dish was the highlight of the evening.“

“chill vibe. great burgers. super cocktails. good service“

“Very impressive. It’s great to see someone so young achieving his goals. Compared to other top restaurants in NYC, Gem is right up there.“

“A must experience wonderful place“

“The food the service overall everything is impeccable“

“I've been to that location several times for many occasions and my guests are always amazed by the service, the food especially that mesmerizing view of the city. I highly recommend it and the corner window tables get you the best views.“

“That was the best restaurant meal I’ve have ever had. The lobster risotto was unbelievable and the duck appetizer was so delicious. I will recommend this restaurant to everyone! We loved sitting upstairs in the corner. The staff and service were outstanding.“

“This was a fantastic experience! From the moment we stepped inside, the staff was courteous, engaging, helpful and knowledgeable. We had a party of 3, and ordered 6 dishes. Each dish came out as it was made and each dish was absolutely delicious. A person in our party had a gluten allergy which was no problem and accommodated with ease. We come to NY every year and this will absolutely be a place we revisit again and again! Vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike will appreciate the dishes and be amazed with the taste! Highly recommended!“

“Had a wonderful meal this evening at Upland, really enjoyed my artichoke entree and was pleasantly surprised by my lobster main! Luis was so professional and attentive, I loved my complimentary guava sorbet and the honey ice cream was also delish. I highly recommend them, thank you for taking such good care of me for the two hours I was with you.“

“Had a good brunch experience at Clinton, but it was not as hype-worthy as the videos I had seen on Tik Tok. The blueberry pancakes with mapple butter were delicious but I prefer Salt Cure’s. We also ordered the breakfast with poached eggs which was also good. The service and ambiance was good, although its always very busy. Definetly make a reservation if you are hoping to come here!“

“it was fun to be here i enjoyed so much.“

“The ambience is great and the food is fantastic. It's my kind of food. I will recommend more of my friends to try it.“

“One of Manhattan's great ‘secrets'. The caviar offering and presentation are first class. But it is also a great restaurant experience apart from the caviar. Innovative selections that are very well presented with close but discreet service. One of our favourites.“

“Blown away by interior design, topped with finger-licking food, friendly service, and such a well crafted drinks!“

“Food was supreme here. I had the raw clams, fresh and presented well. Cocktail sauce was done with care. My main was spaghetti and clams in tomato sauce with arugula salad and a touch of spring onions, that was a very fine detail. The effort was notable in the food. Service could be more disciplined though, some staff prioritise chatting with each other over customer service. The dining room was tastefully decorated. Would love to come back but I live too far.“
