“We've been to Casa Limone many times, usually for lunch. The Executive Lunch on weekdays is our choice every time. The portion is just right and the salmon crudo and soup are always great choices. My wife and I split dessert and the gianduja is wonderful. Service at Casa Limone is always terrific from bussers to servers. Casa Limone is our go-to whenever we look for lunch in midtown.“

“It was my birthday and we celebrated at Casa Dani! The food was delicious, the place is spectacular and the attention from the team was up to par! I also want to highlight ALEX's attention! Alex gives a special service and explained everything to us. He was always attentive to what you needed and in the end we were pleased! The experience would not have been as good without Alex at the helm! It was good and even more so with Alex.“

“Came for breakfast while waiting for a store to open. At 10am on a Sunday they were packed.I was solo so I got seated quickly at the bar (which was also fairly full).Service was quick, water was refilled often and fast.The Green Shakshuka was great. The eggs were cooked to perfection. It had a very earthy taste. I wasn’t rushed, and was able to stay a while waiting for the shop I wanted to visit to open.“

“Best Ethiopian cuisine I’ve had outside of Ethiopia! Service was great, atmosphere was vibrant, live music, open mic, poetry this place has it all!“

“Yummy and great service. Hummus!“

“Outstanding! Super comfort-chic vibe and great ambiance all around. Management, servers, et all were A plus. Passover pre fixe and A la carte were just perfect. Matzah hall soup and gefilte fish app platter were superb! A definite go to again!“

“Lovely setting and GREAT for families. Aside from the standard crayons for kids, they provided really nice sticker books and a cardboard fire truck - my two year old was over the moon, and I was able to have a happy brunch with family. The only reason this is isn’t a perfect score the somewhat limited brunch menu and small servings. Overall though I’d highly recommend!Kid-friendliness: Lovely setting and GREAT for families. Aside from the standard crayons for kids, they provided really nice sticker books and a cardboard fire truck - my two year old was over the moon, and I was able to have a happy brunch with family.“

“The beautiful, intimate atmosphere and absolutely top notch comfort food would be worth it alone - BUT the service was also awesome. After we were graciously seated without a reservation (try to book ahead because you really won't want to miss this place), the staff was so kind, friendly, and attentive. Absolutely everything we had was wonderful but the knafeh actually brought a tear to my eye. ❤️ Absolutely would recommend 5 out of 5 stars.“

“Nice Turkish restaurant. Reasonably priced.“

“Entwine is a dark discreet bar. The cocktails are good, the service is fine. The area downstairs has a very comfy couch in the back, and tables for 4-6 people. I'd recommend going during their happy hour, where they have cocktails for $10 (bef. tax/tip). I recommend the French 75 (without simple syrup personally) and the gin buck which were both great.The table ordered a plate of hummus to share and I must admit the pita bread was fluffy and delicious.“

“Phenomenal meal! We were lucky enough to sit in Alicia section and basically just followed her suggestions. The tzatziki, octopus, duck, and baklava were all . We were able to get in and out to catch our train without compromising on a great NYC culinary experience. Looking forward to coming back!“

“Awesome food presentation and ambiance! A definite “go back to again”!“

“Beautiful restaurant. Portions small and highly overpriced but absolutely delicious! Service was most attentive too. After dining there, I stopped for a snack to have in my hotel room.“

“Absolutely love this restaurant! The service is excellent, everyone So attentive, making sure that you’re happy you’re comfortable and I always ask if you need anything. Everyone is always so happy and cheerful when you walk in there it just gives you a really good vibe.“

“The food is good and service is excellent. We had the price fixe“

“Wonderful food and amazing service.“

“What an excellent meal! The service was outstanding and the vibe is excellent.If you are hungry for home style Greek food, this is seriously the spot for you.Greek salad, zucchini chips, and tzatziki...no brainer to start. Add a mixed grill...and you are golden. The lamb chops are unbelievable! Throw in a couple Fix beers to wash down the delicious fries.Overall, super authentic and great service = wow!“

“The food was incredibly delicious. We ordered the trio of sauces and several small plates, including the spinach triangles, lamb triangles and veal meatballs. Everything was excellent.“

“Nice popular foodie spot in Manhattan. WATCH out on confusion of getting there. There are two places-same name, within 6 blocks BUT ensure you are at the right one! We got mixed up and nearly missed our reso time. The staff were nice. It was my birthday-which they knew about so the confusion and frustration-they knew about……that was slightly off putting-but it is NYC I suppose.“

“The service is great and so is the food. Had the smoked salmon eggs Benedict which was served on a potato pancake. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly. The coffee is also excellent.“

“Great food, great service!“

“Went for a team drinks after work and had a pretty good time. Value during happy hour is good, although service was a bit slow even though there were not that many people in the bar / restaurant. Drinks were good, though. Would try again, although maybe with a smaller group in case service is slow again.“

“I don’t leave many reviews. I usually do this when someone goes above and beyond - which is what brought me here to leave this review. Anna - thank u so much for your professionalism and kindness. You went very much above and beyond all while you were helping many, many other people. For the GM: I work for a luxury 5 star hotel and the qualities that Anna has is exactly what we look for in every team member. I was ready to not come back - but to keep it very real - Anna recovered + retained me as a customer. Not bc the food was great (not Anna’s fault in any way) but bc there was a highly intelligent and empathetic human helping me. Again - during dinner rush, which I know is not easy. I hope she is recognized for her efforts in the proper way. Thank you“

“Second time at Antique Garage and always a big hit. I would recommend coursing out the meal, however, if you go - our waiter recommended bringing all at once; and I would definitely course it to enjoy the ambiance and environment longer. The space is great - small, but perfect for Mercer Street. The wine and drinks are awesome. The food is delicious.“

“Amazing place! My brother and I are both vegan and have a ton of allergies and the wait staff was super accommodating. The food is spectacular too - I took 2 animal eaters and a vegetarian to the restaurant and they couldn't tell the difference between the kebabs and meat. We had the "chicken", "beef", and kofta kebabs, along with the "chicken" gyros, "lamb" cigars, and hummus. I was a big fan of all the kebabs, and thought the "chicken" gyros were amazing too. The desserts were also great - highly recommend.Vegetarian options: It's an entirely vegan restaurant.“

“Amazing food! Wonderful service and Chef Marie Loi is a joy! My new “must go when I’m in NY” restaurant!“

“First, the Staff at Little Owl are amazing. The food was well prepared and setting of the restaurant was pretty cozy ??. I ordered the broccoli, cauliflower, and mushrooms, along side an order of beignets; the meal was really delicious. Thank you for providing a wholesome experience for me and my date. ?“

“friendly, clean, delicious lunch!“

“Top class place, friendly staff and great food and savage craic! Well worth a visit if you find your self in need of a pint and a shot!“

“We had dinner at White Olive Restaurant with my guests, the ambiance and decor are magnificent. The service was very good, Everything was on time, the cocktails and food are truly incredibly delicious, I can easily recommend this place to everyone, the menu prices are very reasonable.“

“Very nice restaurant. Just honest ingredients with excellent flavors. Service was great, attentive but not pushy (unlike some other restaurants). Go here for proper food and a general nice evening.Had the mezes and NY tenderloin steak, both good dishes. Nice steak that comes without fuzz (butter, unnecessary sauces etc).“

“We would like to thank the Avra Team for the wonderful experience we had celebrating our son's 1 year old birthday and his grandparents 40th wedding anniversary. Beautiful place for special celebration! Sophisticated ambience, attentive staff, exceptional service, delicious Greek food! We highly recommend making reservation in advance!“
