“Food, service, ambiance, drinks, wine This place was amazing.“

“Amazing South Indian food, relaxed vibes and friendly staff“

“We had an amazing experience at Claud last night. The service couldn't have been better, and the food was amazing. We ordered the squash fritters, foie gras terrine, red shrimp, chicken liver agnolotti and rice pudding for dessert. We were also able to try the kampachi with kumquat and yuzu which was so fresh bright and delicious. The squash fritters had such a light and delicious batter and covered with pecorino. They were amazing. We loved the foie gras terrine with the most delicious sourdough bread. The red shrimp was one of my favorites. So simple and full of flavor. The agnolotti were fantastic. The pork chop was cooked perfectly and were covered in delicious smoked onion jus. The glazed carrots were so unique and delectable. The rice pudding was one of the best we've ever had. This was one of the best meals we've had in NYC. It would be hard to find anything better.“

“It’s as good as everyone says it isWe ordered half the menu & nothing was less than fantastic. Cocktails were all good, boozy, and well crafted. We loved the scotch egg, and honestly the fries were something to write home about. Duck pie & the burger were the stars of the meal.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“This is the easiest 5 star review I've ever left. Came here for an anniversary and the staff made it feel incredibly special. The food was divine, environment was great, and service was beyond impeccable. Anything you could want for a celebration or just a nice night out. The tasting menu was wonderful and would absolutely recommend spending the additional $10 for the custard and caviar. If you're torn between desserts go with the cake and sorbet, both are incredible but it's the more complete and balanced dish imo. Honestly thanks again to the staff for making a special night even moreso.P.s. I would buy the scallion butter by the tub if I could.“

“I came here for dinner on a Thursday night, and it was a wonderful experience. Our waiter, Freddy, had a personal touch that transformed our dining experience into one of warmth and recognition, ensuring we felt exclusively attended to.The culinary highlight, among others, was the innovative ceviche, a mix of nicely tangy grapes and spicy peppers, as well as the creamykale risotto. These two dishes really captured the spirit of the restaurant's innovative and carefully crafted menu with a commitment to freshness, creativity, and harmony of flavors.The sommelier's role in enhancing the dining experience cannot be overstated. With a keen eye for unique and interesting wines, the sommelier had a perfect mix vintage and varietals selections. This place has an incredible selection of wine bottles, definitely recommend trying at least one during your visit.Definitely an exciting new restaurant in the city, and one that takes its food and wine selection seriously. Excellent work by the whole staff, will definitely visit again.“

“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“

“Very good definitely worth the visit if you're in Manhattan.“

“Amazing atmosphere, professional staff, food full of authentic Georgian taste )“

“My family of 5 and I visited RH Rooftop initially in March 2024 and did not have the best experience. We shared our concerns with an amazing manager named Jim Schmiedl. After patently hearing us out. He earnestly shared that if we gave RH Rooftop NYC another try, he promised he and everyone else would make it right. Jim and our server Kelly along with all the staff made it right as rain. Our experience was absolutely AMAZING. The service, food, drinks, everything was a 20/10. We will return with a BIG smile on our faces . Give them a try- you will enjoy the entire experience from start to finish.“

“Had a girls night here. 5 of us, outside table, drinks and dinner before going out on Saturday. Definitely make a reservation. Drinks were average price for WV - 18. They were all excellent tasting (see note below though). Service was great - sirloin sandwich was delicious and well priced. We were not rushed out and vibes were great. We had a great time and I will be back. Note to the restaurant -- the espresso martini was great BUT please change the design, the coffee grounds on the top were cute but they ruin the drink halfway through and get in your teeth.“

“This place rocked. We wanted something close to the High Line and this place popped up. We made a reservation via Open Table. After getting delayed on the subway, we were a little late. The hostess was understandable and we were seated at a table right away. It was busy and lively. We ate the sourdough bread, citrus salad and deviled eggs. It was all good. I am certain anything is good on their menu. Thanks Cookshop!“

“Awesome music, very good wine knowledge and fresh food to die for.“

“This wine bar is AWESOME! We had sooo much fun; Food was OUTSTANDING and of course the wine was great as well! Great VIBE... Definitely will be back ... ***** 5 Stars!“

“Loved Jeju noodle bar! My standouts were definitely the toro sambap and the fried chicken. The fried chicken went so well with the caviar aioli they served us with. The ribs were definitely overshadowed by these standouts, but still was a pleasure to eat :) The ambiance was really nice, with well decorated interior. The staff were super nice too, they took care of our take outs at the counter so we can enjoy our meal without rushing :) Would love to come back for a special occassi“

“If you're on the hunt for a small, cute, and vibey spot that delivers on both ambiance and delicious food, look no further than B'artusi! My recent visit for brunch was an absolute delight.The menu offers a perfect balance of classic favorites and innovative twists, and let me tell you, the dishes did not disappoint. The burger and lasagna were simply amazing - flavorful, perfectly cooked, and oh-so-satisfying. But what truly stole the show was the French toast tiramisu. It was nothing short of phenomenal - a heavenly blend of flavors and textures that left me craving more.Aside from the fantastic food, the atmosphere at B'artusi is charming and chic, making it the ideal spot for a casual yet stylish brunch outing. Plus, the restaurant team was incredibly friendly, adding to the overall welcoming vibe.Whether you're a local or just passing through, B'artusi is a must-visit destination for brunch enthusiasts. I can't wait to return and indulge in more of their delectable offerings!“

“It was a wonderful experience our waiter and everyone was just fantastic and the food was amazing!!“

“I want to bathe in the Anchoiade...I'm not usually one to order pasta at a restaurant, but I was absolutely mindblown by the pasta anchoiade. Sensational sauce - salty, buttery, silky, the anchovy comes through but isn't too fishy. I could write a love letter to this dish (this review seems to already be turning into one).Pasta aside - I adore this restaurant. The paté, the citrus salad, the horseradish roast beef. I came here on a date and was simply lusting (over the food). Delightful!“

“High in the clouds atop the historic pine st building, Saga restaurant has one of the best views in the city.When we arrived up the elevator, we were greeted by the bar and served an aperitif treat from a selection of fruity or herbal flavors.We were then taken to our table. The menu is pretty straightforward with a couple of choices - we had a choice of entree (we chose the duck tagine which saga is famous for) and we could also add on a truffle risotto course.Our first bite was a foam topped abalone beautifully served in the shell. This was the followed by a bento box of fresh seafood and vegetable bites. The idea was a 'choose your own adventure' and combine the seafood on crackers, or lettuce leaves with sauces to your liking.We also had a foie gras dish, and a scallop pudding dish with caviar, bone marrow, and lobster in Singaporean chilli style, before the main event of the duck. Served family style, we had two large dishes of duck with vegetables and pancake style breads and sauces to make into wraps. I loved the interactivity but was slightly concerned I wouldn't have the best combination of flavors in every bite. The food was messy and needed a good wipe of my hands after!For dessert we enjoyed the ice cream and crumble.We also got the discovery wine pairing and every single pairing was spot on (which is rare for a long tasting menu).Great spot!“

“Delicious food! Will be back next time we are in New York!“

“Overall, Farra was a lovely spot. the service at this place + their sister spot next door, Atera, was excellent. I walked into Atera and 3 different people immediately greeted me. I didn't have a reservation, and while they had one spot left for their tasting menu, their team was super helpful in pointing me next door to their sister spot Farra as a better option given i don't eat red meat and wasn't really hungry enough for their 12 course tasting menu, but I definitely plan to give that a shot down the road. While more casual, the service at Farra was just as excellent. I had the rose, which was crisp and balanced, to accompany the light seafood meal. I started with the salmon tartare which was delicious and the potato chips added a nice crunch - and you get to control the salmon quantities with a 'build your own' nori approach to the dish. I followed it up with the scallop and roe dish which was delicious. While the rice itself was a little bland, the roe and egg yolk added a nice burst of flavor to every bite and the scallops were phenomenal. I finished the meal with a small dessert, the umami truffles, which were well balanced and a light close out to the meal. The entire experience was quick - but not rushed - and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend giving Farra a shot if you're in the neighborhood!“

“Myself and my Wife had a lovely time here for our wedding anniversary. The tasting menu was well put together and the wine pairing was masterfully combined. The service was very attentive and the waiter was all to happy to answer questions we had about the wines and the food. The only disappointing but was that we were sat in a backroom, flanked by two noisy groups that didn't really fit the atmosphere of the restaurant, but other people can't be helped! We will definitely be coming back next time we are in NYC.“

“Great food and a wonderful staff!“

“Came to Dig on Bleecker to find something healthy in a city full of unhealthy food, and boy did they deliver. Their menu also has a lot of vegan friendly ingredients and selections. Everything was freshly prepared, and was cooked to perfection. The staff were patient and friendly. We like this location in particular for some of their unique items. The cornbread is a must try! Once you’ve had enough of Joe’s pizza, I’d highly recommend you stop in when you’re in the neighborhood.“

“Had a wonderful brunch today at Hudson Clearwater. The smoothie was outstanding. This is a quaint rustic spot and deserves all the love for their vegan friendly menu. I chose the blackened fish sandwich and it did not disappoint. The Cole slaw on the brioche bun, lightly covered with tarter sauce, made for a perfect sandwich. Their fries were delectable as well. Great service, and a great meal with my sweetheart.“

“always impeccable, the best option to spend a few days in New York“

“I DO NOT RECOMMEND. I have been going to Quatorze since the early 1990’s when Mark and Peter were on 79th St. I was thrilled when the restaurant recently moved to my corner at 82nd and 1st Ave. and have always enjoyed dining there. NEVER AGAIN. I just had the most awful in-person experience with a manager, Nino who was rude, dismissive and argumentative. And all I wanted to do was make a reservation. Nino is the complete antithesis of the way the staff at Quatorze treat customers. If this is the person who is now the face of this beloved neighborhood gem, then sadly I will not be back. And that’s a shame. I left a message asking to speak to the owner, Mark, but I guess having to speak to an actual loyal customer who is unhappy is beneath him. UPDATE: I received a call from the owner Mark, who questioned the veracity of my account. Do yourself a favor and steer clear - these are rude, arrogant people who think we’re all just dumb. And the food and service is average at best.“

“Excellent and comfortable affordable“

“What a gem we just found! I made a reservation at Stake Frites last minute on a whim, and am so glad I did. At first we sat at a high table but the place is tight, even for NY standards, so I asked the hostess if we could sit at the bar, that was perfect. Juan, the bartender, was the best! He makes the best cocktails and was really nice. The whole staff is great! Food was good, though my husband’s steak chateaubriand wasn’t served rare as he requested. We’ll definitely be back and try other things on the menu. My only complaint would be the very tight space but I heard they may be expanding so that might change.“

“We spent a delicious time in this restaurant. An exquisite cuisine, each wine was chosen with care and finesse by the sommelier.The service is present, attentive without being pushy. Perfect!The atmosphere is clean calm and lightened enough to appreciate this gastronomical performance.“

“I can’t believe I’ve lived in Harlem for this long and only just now visited this restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing, and the service was fantastic (shoutout to Filip). I’m always hesitant ordering lamb dishes at restaurants because of how often they get them wrong, but I’m so glad I ended up ordering it. Perfectly fork tender, and the sauce it was served in was divine“

“Best pizza in town“

“Super helpful staff, fresh and delicious oysters and apps. Great beer list. Cant go wrong with this place. In Chelsea market“

“Ate at Chama Mama in the Upper West side last January at a friend's recommendation, and it was my first time tasting Georgian Cuisine. It was great! I got the basic Khachapuri and the Khinkali (Georgian dumplings), and both came in big servings. They were both delicious as well, and the person at the counter also shared how to eat the dishes the traditional Georgian way. Would highly recommend!“

“The environment and service are very delicious.“

“Dining at WEST10WEST was an absolute TREAT!! They’ve really nailed the curation of a cozy, inviting atmosphere, coupled with staff who are passionate about the food & drink (and will kindly provide detailed descriptions to all our questions)!And of course, the dishes were not only beautiful to look at, but also delicious and had such dynamic flavors. The spring ceviche’s red snapper tasted so fresh, and our table could not stop drinking up the citrusy « soup ». The eggplant was super hearty, with the gochujang flavor perfectly balancing out the bite. Also, the beet gnocchi was a 10/10. Chef Barbara coming out to greet us with the food was the extra cherry on top.I went with a group of girlfriends but this restaurant would be perfect for so many other occasions — date night, family dinner, bringing in out of town guests, intimate birthday celebrations, or simply catching up with friends over a glass of Metamorphika (which was divineee).I’m excited to return to try several other dishes — based on the pictures of the food & how I’ve described the space to friends, they’ll need little convincing. ?Huge shoutout to this team that has managed to inject so much life & personality into a small space within the West Village!“

“I went to this restaurant for my birthday, and despite the last minute discovery, Giovanni and Matteo went out of their way to surprise me and bring me a slice of cake to celebrate. Delicious dishes and Matteo very kind, the prices are fair and even lower than many restaurants in New York. Giovanni was very kind and even moved my table under the Lazio mural (I'm a Roma fan ??) but they deserve a 5 star rating! Highly recommended!“

“Mussette in Harlem is a wine bar that truly understands the art of hospitality. From the moment I stepped in, the customer service was stellar—attentive without being overbearing. The Women’s History wine flight they offer is not just unique but also a testament to their commitment to inclusivity and celebration of diversity in the wine world.And let's talk about their charcuterie boards—absolutely sublime! The selection of cheeses, dried fruit and nuts paired perfectly with the wines we chose.But what truly sets Mussette apart is the warmth and genuine passion of the staff. They made our evening unforgettable, offering insights and recommendations that enhanced our experience. If you're in Harlem and looking for a cozy spot with exceptional wine and hospitality, Mussette is the place to be.“

“Very chic city atmosphere with a beautiful bar & dining area indoors. The food and service was outstanding.“

“Great food and atmosphere. The mocktail was superb“

“I highly recommend dining at Jazba for an exceptional culinary experience. My husband and I went there for dinner with our friends. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted by warm and welcoming staff. We were served by Mamta who was very knowledgeable about the menu and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great dining experience. We really liked their selection of cocktails. We tried Peepli, Kokum, Paan and Panch Phoran. All the drinks were great but I personally liked Peepli the best. It had a nice tangy flavor that went well with the alcohol. We ordered Basket Chaat and Empire Fried Chicken for appetizers and for main course we got Atrai Panneer, Daal Makhni, and Green Chilli Chicken along with their unique bread selection (appam, lacha parantha and roomali roti).The food was absolutely delicious and the presentation of each dish was impeccable. The beautiful utensils added a nice touch of elegance (see pictures I have added). Overall, it was a memorable dining experience and we will definitely visit again.“
