“It is an amazing Southeast Asian restaurant with an elegant and comfortable environment, spacious enough for gatherings with friends and family. It also has a bar for couples to enjoy a drink. Every dish is incredibly authentic, reminds me of the happy times I spent in Thailand.?Spiced Corn RibsCorn Ribs are coated in a rich tamarind glaze that provides a sweet and tangy flavor, fresh cilantro sprinkled on top adds a burst of herbal freshness.The corn itself is naturally sweet and becomes crispy on the outside and soft on the inside after being flash-fried, presenting a satisfying chewiness.?Curry Pork RibsTwice-cooked ribs on the bone Mild Karee Curry, Seasoned with fragrant kaffir lime leaves, the meat is tender and easily falls off the bone. The curry flavor is very authentic, taking me on a culinary journey through Southeast Asia with each bite. Absolutely love it! ??eggyolk softshell crabThe outer layer is coated with a salty egg yolk sauce before frying, giving the softshell crab a thin and crispy shell. The flavor of the salty egg yolk is rich, complementing the tender and juicy meat inside. The taste is very unique and definitely worth trying.?Crying Tiger SteakGrilled 10oz ribeye steak marinated in Thai spices, served with Thai chimichurri sauce and crispy fingerlings, accompanied by Thai spicy sauce (Nam Jim Jeow), minced green onions, and fried garlic slices. This dish is absolutely mouthwatering and leaves a memorable aftertaste, making it a must-try. ??Drunken Noodles/ Pad Kee MaoThe wide rice noodles absorb the sauce and spices during stir-frying, while the beef is cooked to a crispy exterior and tender interior. This pairs perfectly with the crispness of the string beans and the fresh, spicy flavor of Thai basil. Absolutely love it!‼️?Pandan flanA Western-style dessert infused with the unique aroma of Southeast Asian pandan leaves. The flan has a smooth and delicate texture, soft and moist to the touch. I absolutely love the fresh scent brought by the pandan leaves! Its light green color, combined with the sweet flavor of caramel, creates a distinctive dessert that can only be found here!“

“Excellent food, each item special“

“Excellent service and food“

“Always delicious...great service and atmosphere“

“The care and creative that’s put into each dish is superb. The pre-fix is an excellent deal. And it’s fam friendly even though the food is avant-garde in style. Nice service.“

“osamil is a very nice place for dinner. uni bibimbap was delicious and mixed very well. beef tartare was also very yummy with strong taste of gochujang. skewers were good. beef rib was tougher than expected but the pork belly was so soft and the sauce was amazing.“

“Really good food, small interior but acoustics were such that we could all speak normally and hear each other. Variety of menu options. Only reason for 4 stars is we were informed that, despite being asked if we had any food allergies or dietary restrictions, there was no accommodation for any of the menu items. One in our party was vegan and the only menu option was brussel sprouts, despite many items being easily customized (no creme fraiche, no egg) to accommodate. It was quite disappointing. Overall would recommend if you have no dietary needs!“

“This is some of the best food we've had in NY. Wonderful service and great ambiance. We got blistered shishito peppers, calamari, salmon, red shrimp, and scallops. Finished with the lava cake and the cheesecake. We didn't leave a crumb.“

“We walked in with no reservations on a Saturday night (we had just arrived in the city) and only had a 45 minute wait. The food is delicious, I had pork tonkatsu ramen, and my husband had a seafood okonomiyaki. We shared a soy and ginger beef appetizer and got their seasonal Miu Miu cocktail. The service was quick once we were seated and the staff was friendly. The only drawback is that the space is loud, and it is uncomfortable to try and have a conversation over your meal. That may not be a problem on a weekday though.“

“After 4 days in New York with 2 children we finally found a place to eat well. The owner Andrea was very kind in meeting our needs, you can see that he loves his job. Highly recommended place for those who want to eat well a stone's throw from Time Square.“

“My friends and I stopped here for breakfast and we loved it. I had the avocado toast and it was delicious. The latte with almond milk was fantastic. The restaurant is clean, the service was excellent.Vegetarian options: The avocado toast was vegetarian or with the option to have it vegan.Kid-friendliness: The service is excellent.“

“Visited today from England. Wonderful staff, delicious food. Highly recommended“

“I have to say that I was so pleasantly surprised at how great the service was at this very popular wine bar. We went in on a Friday night before seeing a play across the street. The staff could not have been nicer, very helpful with our selections and very professional. The manager even remembered us after we stopped back in after the play. The wine selections are nicely curated and the food is delicious. Will definitely stop back again.“

“Greywind was, for us, everything its reputation anticipated. A lively and comfortable place with very attentive servers. Our waiter, Rob, was both incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and incredibly funny the entire night! Plus, we had a birthday in our party and the chocolate writing is quite possibly the most precise and beautiful food writing I have witnessed. I think it speaks somewhat to the expertise in their kitchen.“

“Ostrica is a gem! Awesome happy hour, and the oysters are always fresh & meaty. Ownership obviously cares about the product they put out, every dish we've had has been on point. Let's make sure this place is around for a long time!“

“a great Basque tapas restaurant. i wonderful gem in Chelsea!“

“Several things I’d recommend about THE PURPLE TONGUE. 1) The unique wide selection of rare wines. The owner Peter spent a lot of time in Asia & SE Asia & Europe. He totally understands great wines. 2) the best baked salmon in the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood & I’m a salmon lover. 3) the relaxing atmosphere of his indoor & outdoor seating space. And even outdoors the massive plants section off the eatery and the sidewalk for privacy 4) last but not least the great jazz & blues entertainment which sometimes features vocalist for your listening & enjoyment pleasure“

“An unforgettable evening at The Bazaar at The Ritz! The chef personally visited me, adding a special touch to the amazing culinary experience. Each dish was a masterpiece of flavor, beautifully presented in an elegant setting. Highly recommended for a truly exceptional dining adventure.“

“Wow!! Just around the corner from where I live and so glad I stopped in!!! The food is so fresh and well seasoned and flavorful. I had the garlic shrimp, meatballs and half chicken. The meatballs have a little lemon which I've never had and makes them so fresh. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and the chicken was tender and bright. So satisfying. Great and friendly service. Can't wait to come back.“

“Amazing food and atmosphere❤️“

“One of my favorite restaurants in the city! Their chicken liver mousse is the best, but I love that no matter what I pick from the menus or specials, I know that it’ll be amazing. Staff is also really friendly and accommodating. I’ve been here many times and hope to go back many more!“

“Amazing food and drinks! The sliders are perfect to share!“

“small ramen with big flavors. I enjoyed everything from the chill atmosphere to amazing food. the blend of Peruvian cuisine with traditional Japanese dishes is a match made in foodie heaven. I had the double fried wings and sloppy joe bao bun for a starter and each dish was better than the last. the wings were super crispy yet tender inside and the sloppy joe bao buns were a trip down memory lane. the sloppy brought me back to my childhood eating at a friend's house. for my ramen I had the tonkatu. their pork broth was hearty and tasteful and reminded me of my first bowl of real ramen. I highly recommend going there and finding out on your own...“

“Atmosphere charming! Quaint, almost like a cafe as I see people working from here. It started getting very crowded during night time and I can understand why. I loved the classic martini. Would definitely come back if it’s not too crowded during a lazy afternoon.“

“Delicious food-pork buns, Dan Dan noodles, ramen, dumplings; honestly it’s all delicious. Very attentive service too!! Highly recommend this place (from a discerning critic)!“

“Yummy and great service. Hummus!“

“Our waiter Tony was awesome and super attentive. Very fun vibe here and the food was delicious. Got a variety of stuff, ramen, sushi, dumplings, all super good. Would definitely come back!Dietary restrictions: It's a nut free restaurant“

“We had a great dinner at ABC Cocina last night. All the food was delicious including the guac, patatas bravas, fluke crudo, hearts of palm salad and tacos. We also loved the speciality margaritas and the churros for dessert. The meal was a little spendy but at least you get what you pay for unlike many other overpriced restaurants in NYC these days.“

“My favorite neighborhood wine bar in Kips Bay/Murray Hill. The staff are soooo friendly, service is quick and the decorations/ambiance of the inside is adorable. They have oyster/wine flight happy hour that is 100% worth it. The dry red wine flight (cote de Rhône especially) and the dozen oysters for under $35. Have been and will be back!!“

“the wings were fire and they even gave us free shot“

“It was like dining in a 5 star establishment. I had the surf & turf. The jumbo shrimp.was perfectly cooked and the steak tips unbelievably great. I never had their specialty desert cake. It was an unbelievable experience, so good. The owner Jose was so friendly and made me feel like family. Overall, I highly recommend Chloes. My go to place!“

“Before walking in, I knew I wanted hummus and a Mediterranean salad.After searching the menu, I picked just that. I got the chicken kebab and it was delicious. I arrived for lunchtime, there was no wait and the food came quickly. I may come back. The waitress was also really nice. Great day in the city with great food! I paired my meal with sparkling water. So delish!“

“I highly recommend this restaurant if you are a foodie. The standing part makes it unique, and if you're lucky enough to get a spot further in you can watch the chef make all of the dishes. The food was spectacular, and the drinks are great as well. Give it a try!“

“My friends & I went to Vinoteca last week and had such a wonderful time. The wine is very refreshing & delicious!! I love the fact that it’s self-served. To top it off, the food was out of this world!!! The staff was very kind & attentive and I would recommend Vinoteca to all, but, most importantly to all the wine lovers. You would soon make this your to go to place. We had such a great time last week, we will be doing it again this weekend. Come along, hopefully I’ll see you there!!“

I highly recommend Little Dubai It's a five star winner ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The best kept secret in North Jersey N.Y. metropolitan area.“

“We had a great dinner for 6 on a cold Saturday night in the city. The ambiance was upscale, quiet, and relaxing. The waitstaff was very accommodating and friendly, even though we were fairly late for our reservation. The food was excellent and everyone enjoyed their meals. I felt like the portions were large! Our server had a good sense of humor, even though several of us requested modifications to our meals. I would come back here again!“

“My boyfriend loves red snapper so I am consistently seeking places that serve it - on the bone where possible. We just so happened to be in the area when I found it on the menu. Went once and now regularly drive an hour just to come here for the red snapper and Pollo al ajillo which is my favorite (huge garlic fan). I want to explore other items on the menu but I can't because I absolutely love that dish. The happy hour during the week is also fantastic, he drives and I indulge in mojitos, which is a huge win for me. The happy hour apps are great too! We've tried them all.“

“Highly recommend the paealla negra excelente! authentic and savory!“

“I was visiting a friend in the area and we decided to stop by for food and drinks, our waiter was the mustache guy, he was so nice and attentive and suggested the most delicious tapas and cocktails, I really enjoyed the potatoes bravas, the sprouts and grilled octopus, as for drinks we were recommended the margaritas(yummy) and sangria, we had an excellent evening, thank you mustache guy, we will be coming back soon!“
