“We really enjoyed our experience at Kimika. The cocktails were amazing - unique with great flavors. I loved the kaga milk punch, shishitorita and the unami in kenmare.Dishes are a fusion of Japanese flavors in Italian style dishes, such as the sticky rice arancini served on a Japanese curry sauce. Other menu highlights were the tuna tartare, hamachi collar, truffle carbonara, rigatoni, and the steak.Dont miss the yakult soft serve for dessert!Staff were very friendly and helpful with recommendations.We were seated in a back room which felt private with so much space on the large tables.“
“10/10 highly recommend. Read about Potluck Club on the infatuation and they were spot on. Potstickers were delicious. The salt and pepper chicken was a first for me, but also delicious. And we had some noodle dish and added the hanger steak. Again delicious. Staff was so friendly and all busting their butts. Really nice to see them working as a team!“
“Such a lovely low-key friendly neighborhood eats. They've just been opened for couple weeks. Liquor license is coming soon. Love all the dishes we had. Very fresh ingredients and herbs being used, including micro greens and edible flowers. Drinks served now are only soft drinks but like I mentioned earlier; their liquor license is being issued right now. They should start serving alcoholic beverages in couple weeks. What we had today for three of us: Drinks - Raspberry Lemonade - Very refreshing beverage with a perfect combination taste of sweet and sour. Perfect for the hot summer day. - Thai Iced Tea - Typical signature non-alcoholic iced tea from Thailand. They made it perfectly - not overly sweet like most Thai places. - Thai Iced Coffee - Another signature Thai styled iced coffee. And again, perfectly made. Appetizers - Chive Pancakes - Big portion enough to share as a starter. Soft in the inside and crispy on the outside. Love it! - Thai Dumplings - Thai styled steamed dumplings with chicken and shrimp. - Fruit Salad (Special of the Day) - Mixed fruit salad bowl mixed of red apples, green apples, mangoes and grapes tossed with mixed of lime juice and other fresh ingredients of herbs and mints. Perfect for the summer. Entrees - Pad See Ew - Very tasty sautéed noodles with sweet soy sauce and flat noodles and Chinese broccoli and eggs. We chose to have it with fried tofu. - Duck Basil - Love, love, and love how they cook the duck with fresh Basil leaves and bell peppers. The duck meat is there - not dried out - still juicy and tender. Perfectly cooked! - Seafood Pad Cha - Again love the fresh ingredients and herbs used for this dish; especially, peppercorns, fingerroot and fresh lime leaves which they used in the dish. Dessert - Fresh Mango Sticky Rice - Not overly sweet for the Sticky Rice. So it was perfect for a hot day like today. Thank you, Glin for a lovely meal and very friendly attentive service. It was very enjoyable. We do appreciate the way you cook and use lots of fresh ingredients in your dishes. Stay true to your way of cooking. ***Love*** We'll be back soon and will try other dishes. Once again - Thank you. **The Uthairungsri Family**“
“In NYC for a few days and visited OBAO - and couldn't recommend any higher.Our waiter, Beer was excellent - running us through the menu and giving us recommendations (two of which we took up).I highly recommend the short rib massamam which was recommended to me. A favourite of mine, OBAOs was hands down the best Massamam I've tried.Massive shout out again to Beer - for going above and beyond to making our visit memorable.“
“Let me start off by saying, if you want to complain about prices, don't even walk in the door. To get the optimal experience at any restaurant, you have to pay to play. So expect to spend about $70-100 per person here, this is a spot you take someone on a knock-it-out-of-the-park date or group gathering, you can't be a cheapskate. Now, to the food. Vietnamese BBQ is an intimate experience. Order the 7 course beef so you can try everything while the staff explains and helps you cook your meat. The electric grills are of the highest quality, the same ones they use at high-end Japanese yakiniku places, so the smoky taste on your cooked beef will be perfect. If you want to order a la carte, I highly recommend the Tomahawk, Madame Prawns and Charred Uni. Like I said, this is a place where you share your meal with friends and family so all the food is portioned that way.“
“One of the most upscale vegan restaurants I've ever had the pleasure of going to. Terrific Asian foods with veggie flair, and unqiue cocktails to boot. Try the Bang Bang Broccoli and thank me later... its tempura heaven!Vegetarian options: An all vegan menu in midtown Manhattan!Dietary restrictions: An all vegan menu in midtown Manhattan!“
“A great spot in the UES for Thai. They have lots of great options - I got the Khao Soi today. The chicken is super tender and rich. The broth is creamy and bursting with flavor. I got Thai spicy level which wasn’t really that spicy to me… I love spicy food though!Decent portion size for the price for the khao soi. I think the other portion sizes are a bit smaller for the price point in my opinion.Good spot for a date or casual dinner“
“The dining experience as a whole was satisfactory; certain dishes stood out while others fell short of expectations. The entrees, particularly the fried chicken, failed to leave a lasting impression, especially when contrasted with the myriad of exceptional Korean fried chicken offerings available in NYC. The cod was one-note with an overpowering gochugang curry sauce.There were notable highlights such as the sea urchin steamed egg, the squash, and the refreshing sujeonggwa granita, though the occasional overpowering presence of cinnamon in the granita detracted slightly from the overall enjoyment. I would recommend a visit to sample select items, but skip the fried chicken and cod.“
“Food overall was delicious, I tried one of the cocktails was also well made and tasty. Was a little noisy but expected from a popular restaurant. Service was great and always ask if we are good with everything or if we needed anything. A must try when in time square.“
“One of the most delicious Thai restaurants I've had in New York City! The shrimp was so juicy and plump. I couldn't believe how fresh it was. The workers were so patient and accommodating as well. Love seeing their fun, tropical uniforms! There's a reason this place is packed. Go try!“
“Should not have so much onions in the food. My lunch box comes with 2 pan cakes of suck. I hated them. It's just flour with lots of onions. Most Buddhists don't eat onions and scallions. Salad was fresh. Ambiance good. Quiet with no music.“
“Pecking House had some of the best fried chicken I have had in recent times. It was elevated and you could tell there is an extra level of sophistication to their chicken. Different flavors, different techniques and some Asian fusion aspects that pair so perfectly well with the classic American style fried chicken. Cornbread was excellent, dirty fried rice was also superb and the chili chicken sandwich really hit the spot. Can't wait to return to Pecking House in the future! Service was also excellent; super attentive and next level for a more casual place like this one. Don't sleep on the Peanut butter pudding!“
“It was an amazing experience that I give 5 ⭐️’s The menu was innovative and interesting and I love that the chef guides all the courses that come out of the kitchen. Being sea to table ensures the highest quality food and the technique from chef Daniel shines through in every dish. I will definitely be back!“
“I saw this place on instagram and added it to my bucket list. My husband and I traveled from Atlanta just to try The Monkey King. The atmosphere is comfortable and laid back. Our waiter was accommodating and made us feel like we were seating in VIP. We met the owner Mike. He was professional and was grateful for us traveling to Brooklyn New York to try his restaurant. The taste from each dish blew us away from the concocted herbs and spices. We will definitely return.“
“Came to NY for work and stumbled upon this GEM in downtown Brooklyn. Carlos is running an incredible Chef’s Table experience, better than any Michelin star restaurant I’ve been to in Chicago.My S.O and I had a romantic evening paired with hand picked wines from Carlos himself and an exceptional tasting menu. First time I left a fine dining experience FULL. The food was not only a work of art but an educational experience created with the highest quality ingredients available!“
“I don't know if it's a hidden gem or just a gem in the Financial district. My husband, mother in law and I had dinner here last night, and everything was fabulous. The waiter was very accommodating, as we requested hot water instead of regular cold water because of my mother in law, they were very nice and provided a beautiful teapot with small tea cups, such a cute detail! For food we shared the appetizer platter, coconut soup and a pad Thai. The food was incredible, so flavorful! The place itself is beautiful, we loved the decorations and the choice of cutlery and dishes. One can clearly notice that a lot of thought went into creating this place. I'd recommend it if you're in this area of town. 10/10“
“The food was good. The snow crab noodle was very good and had a good portion. The chicken was good but not exceptional. The eggs were a bit disappointing. The hamachi though was amazing! The beignet was good but not exceptional. The price point is reasonable although the seating situation was not good at all. Way too cramped and the space was too small“
“My family and I went to the Lobster club for dinner and in short it was amazing. The food was so unique but soo delicious, there wagyu dishes especially. Of course we had to get a lobster dish which we ended up getting two orders of, the restaurant itself is so beautiful. As soon as you walk in you see a beautiful scenery. The service was good cant complain about anything they were able to accommodate for my moms birthday and bring out a cake which was very nice and there dessert selection is very unique as well! Overall I would definitely come back, this restaurant is definitely on the pricer side but it definitely worth it once you take that first bite!“
“Excellent stop for traditional hot pot or sushi! For $40 we had unlimited sushi and hot pot selections. The servers were very helpful, and the quality of everything was excellent. I’ve had hot pot style meals in Japan and this was just as good!“
“If you're searching for a dining experience that transcends the ordinary, look no further than PF Changs! From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and hospitality. The ambiance was both inviting and elegant, setting the stage for an unforgettable meal.But what truly set this experience apart was the exceptional service provided by bartenders Quenta and Danny. Their professionalism and attentiveness elevated my visit to new heights. Their mastery of mixology was evident in every cocktail they crafted, each one a masterpiece of flavor and presentation. Their genuine enthusiasm and friendly demeanor added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening.I must also commend Giussepe, the manager, for his excellence and attentiveness. He ensured that every aspect of our dining experience was nothing short of perfection. His dedication to customer satisfaction was evident throughout the evening, and his presence only enhanced an already stellar experience.In summary, PF Changs, with its outstanding service and delectable cuisine, earns a perfect 10/10 in my book. Whether you're seeking a romantic dinner for two or a memorable night out with friends, this establishment is sure to exceed your expectations. Don't hesitate to pay them a visit—you won't be disappointed!“
“I have been coming to this establishment since it was legit a box on the block. If you walked too fast you'd miss it...and I'm so excited and impressed on how they've transformed to become such edgy, dateworthy and "Instagrammable" sit down dining restaurant.Prices & Food: very reasonable, includes lunch time specials that won't dent the pockets. I haven't had all of the dishes on the menu but the ones that I have had I enjoyed. I ❤️ the fact that they stay true to their roots regarding heat levels. They don't dummy it down for us NYers..you came there remember! On the flip..they should stay true to their roots and not serve fried chicken wings the way we do up here. That was a miss ?Cleanliness: ? they nailed it! The bathroom decor is something I'd be inspired to copy and VERY clean, smells good, etc. I hold a sanitation certificate so EVERYWHERE I go I'm looking in corners, looking at the ceiling, under the tables..I need to know my area is clean to enjoy my food! 5stars!Service: No complaints. Each server has been attentive and patient; never really hovering to rush me and my party out so much appreciated ?I would very much recommend coming here. Nice for a solo date or bring a party. The place is inviting and seats about 40 people in total I believe. Warm months brings outside dining, never done it, but it looks ?Wheelchair accessibility: Establishment provides outdoor dining and has a ramp! Thoughtful!“
“Very authentic Chinese food ? I thought the prices were very reasonable, my friend and I ordered the sliced beef in chili oil and, the crab meat soup dumpling and two rice, and we left very satisfied - although some dishes on the menu can be much more expensive than what we ordered. The place is a bit cramped but that's to be expected for east village. The wait can get long also, so try to come a bit before the usual dinner time (6 ish pm on a weekday)I cannot wait to come back and try other dishes!“
“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.“
“Great place to eat. Friendly and big portions. I have tried most things and liked them but. My go to order is the Chicken Bimbap Bowl with Tiger Sauce. They are donating a portion of sales to Annandale Baseball on Monday 4/26 and Tuesday 4/27... Just mention Annandale at the register or in the "Special Instructions" when ordering online.“
“My family stopped in for dinner on a gloomy evening. The owner warmly greeted us after a short wait and was very attentive through out our time. We ordered a Bul Dak bowl, Sunny Avo, and Kimchi Jae Yuk bowl. Everything was very tasty and the portions were so large. We tried our best but couldn’t finish, we were stuffed. The owner was very nice, even giving our daughter a choice of handmade trinket made by his children. It was our last day in NYC but would recommend Bulbap Grill to anyone in the area.“
“We had a wonderful event at For U, the food is absolutely delicious, I keep thinking about the cucumber salad it’s so crunchy and tastes so good, the sesame noodles are flavorful and so good, delicate and delicious version of that dish, the best I have ever had. And the Peking duck is divine. It’s a wonderful place for a party, they work with you to make it really special. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the space is warm and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and will go back for dinner very soon.Dietary restrictions: Our event served vegan and vegetarian options as well as standard fare“
“Service is phenomenal, all staff very attentive and constantly ready to clear plates, adjust flames, and switch the grill plate. Our waiter Hira was an excellent waiter!Raised tables and atmosphere are very niceFood would be a 4.5, meat is very good but some cuts were difficult to bite through“
“Hand rolls here are pretty good! Portions are small but I definitely recommend giving it a try here! My favorite handrolls were the spicy tuna and the avocado salmon. The seared prime beef and the A5 Wagyu were also to die for! Every bite melts in your mouth! The spicy tuna crispy rice was ok. The rice was not crispy enough. There was 4 pieces for $12. The salmon carpaccio was really good! Love the citrus sauce that came with this dish. There was 5 slices of salmon for $16. So it was a bit overpriced. Veggie udon was really good and flavorful! Really hit the spot on a cold rainy day! Parking is a bit difficult but that's the norm in Fort Lee. Overall, fish was pretty fresh but overpriced for the portions.“
“Wow, what a dope experience. I already had high expectations for this place, but was still blown away by the food, the drinks and the hospitality. So much thought and flavor behind each bite and sip. This is the type of place that's gonna be the right choice regardless. Hit it up after work with co-workers, go with a group of friends, date night spot, or even a special occasion - I enjoyed my birthday dinner there tonight. Prices are reasonable and approachable, menu items are creative and delicious (the type of things you will crave to have in your life again) and the service is beyond top notch.“
“The best I have eaten in a long time, since I got Covid I started to have new allergies and had to stop eating sushi. I took a risk and gave them my trust. Incredible, super attentive, good communication, the sushi was fresh. They took all my specifications into account and were very careful about cross contaminationThank you very much I will definitely order again“
“The service was a little slow but we had the whole restaurant to ourselves so no complaints - it was basically a quiet little oasis in the middle of this noisy city. Half of the menu is similar to the one at May Kaidee if you're familiar with that place, the other half is more "fruitarian" although I don't think they define fruitarian as a diet purely based on fruit. The influence is Thai-Indian. Nothing was overly oily or salty which is just what I hope for when I eat out. Portions could be slightly bigger. I'll be back to try more things!“
“The owners are amazing The inside is amazing you have to come there with your family very delicious beautiful food and I don't go out to a lot of restaurants but this is one of the best I've been to hospitality is awesome trust me.“
“This is our go-to fancy sushi spot. The quality and inventiveness of their dishes is amazing. Everything is absolutely delicious and so fresh! It’s pricy but worth it. Certain dishes are absolutely decadent and the stuff of dreams! My hubby says it’s the best sushi he’s had in the states since visiting Japan, so that’s saying something!!“
“My first omakase experience We got the Omakase $78/ per person and it was very delicious and filling! The chefs were excellent and friendly. Cozy and near indoor space. Fish was high quality and fresh. Melt in your mouth like butter. Definitely check it out! The highlighted ones were our favorites ?“
“Definitely not your average Thai restaurant. The whole restaurant feels like a one-man passion project, and I mean that in the most earnest way. Don't go in expecting the dishes to be whipped up instantly, but the creative food and friendly service is absolutely worth the wait.“
“It's a cozy, atmospheric place. The service is great and pleasant. Very welcoming vibe and cozy place to sit and enjoy. Staffs are polite and doesn't feel rushed like other places. Thai food is always a healthy and great selection of bubble tea.Kid-friendliness: Ambiance is playful with comfortable lighting and seating.“
“Some friends insisted I try Tiam Tiam. "You will love it and it's so close to your home." Words spoken by ppl that live 35 miles away ??♀️. Needless to say the food was so good! The fresh taste of the salmon was outrageous. The Taiwanese fried pork chop served w/cabbage and rice was so flavourful and juicy. It was as if I was in a private home. So many spices were used in the preparation it makes the pork chop a must try! Even though the trip was a 15 min circuitous journey it was so worth it. ?“
“Had absolutely great evening in here — the atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious foods you see on the pictures were all SO GOOD! It was also great to meet the fellow Russian speaking person by the name Ayta (or Aita, unsure of the spelling) who gladly took our reservation, check in our jackets and took us to our table! Highly recommend this place!“
“The service attitude is very good. She kept asking us if it suits our taste. I think it is very considerate. The lady has a very good service attitude. She helped us take photos and gave guidance. The food is delicious. I recommend the Pad Thai the most.“
“We ordered the black sesame tuna, spicy pork and egg kimbap. They all were absolutely delicious in their own unique way. The tuna was super refreshing and wasn’t heavy at all. The egg kimbap was also surprisingly very good! I like that they don’t put a lot of rice and it’s more full of their fresh ingredients. 5/5!!“
“I couldn’t wait to leave a review!!! From the food service and atmosphere, this place was a 10/10 spot to go to!!! Music was on point and my food was delicious. I’d come back here every time I visit New York!!! My favorite was the Thai chilli siracha wings. If you’re a spice/hot water, GET THEM.“
“I ordered takeout. I tried tteokbokki for the first time and it was so so good!I can’t handle spice food but the rich sauce isn’t spicy. The radishes were so delicious.The fish cake and rice cake have a neutral flavor to me but the dumplings are really tasty. The serving size is really on point. You actually feel like you get what you pay for, not less.Can’t wait to try other dishes.“
“Absolutely amazing food looks just like it does in the picture as well. It was my first time there and Molly helped me pick out what to eat and she was very welcoming and friendly, she definitely upholds a positive atmosphere. Will be coming back.“
“Calling all spicy food lovers - head to Spicy Nepal ASAP. Continuing our Nepalese food tour in Sunnyside, we finally tried Spicy Nepal and it did not disappoint, especially in the heat department. We ordered the Bhatamas Saandeko (fried soy beans - wow!), Vegetable Pakora, Chili Chicken Momo, and the Fish Thali. All were perfectly spicy and had lots of flavor. We definitely put that Mango Lassi to good use b/c there were a lot of sniffles. The location (39-35 47th Ave) is tucked away, so I'm bummed that they're almost always empty when I pass by. Hoping more people will give them a shot b/c I certainly will! The prices are also pretty reasonable.“
“Food was great. Incredible attentive service and the restaurant is cute and has nice decor and is super clean. Love it! Would totally come back. We got the beef noodle soup, scallion pancakes and watercress w enoki mushrooms. so full and happy!“
“Sensational!! For folks craving bao buns but not the meat -- this vegan shop that just opened up in Chinatown NYC is the place to be. Don't let the size scare you away. The place is spotless and the food is prepared to order. I found them by accident, but will be returning intentionally in the very near future. #Vegan #Vegetarian #HealthyFood #FreshFood“
“Good music, good vibes...the bulgogi meat is tender and flavorful...ingredients were all fresh...kale fried dumplings were tasty and loved the dipping sauce...there is seating to eat however there were many take out orders...not meant to dine in for a long period of “
“This is a 2nd floor Japanese-Thai speakeasy in Alphabet City where the food menu leans toward Japan while the drinks are Thai-inspired with the menu designed by veteran NYC bartender and Phetchaboon native Sayparn. Her and her partners opened 11 Tigers in 2022 (year of the tiger which symbolizes success). The staff do an excellent job of mixing food and entertainment.“
“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“
“Food is great. We used to have a teri teri in jersey city but no more, i drove to union city to fulfill this craving. Its not the most appealing place to sit and eat but my food is always A1 so i grab and go. The girls are sweet too and never cheap on extra sauce“
