“Fantastic meal and fantastic overall experience sitting at the chefs counter. Highly recommend the Wagyu and uni supplements as well as the abalone extra course.For some reason they gave us our check well before we finished eating our final course. There wasn't another party waiting for our seats so it was a bit strange to be rushed“
“Truly outstanding meal envisioned by mastermind Raymond, accompanied by stellar drinks crafted by Jack, and world class service by Christine. the Shrimp and grits with langoustine was one of the best bites I've had in recent memory. Cannot wait to go back.“
“After many random nights of trying to walk in and get a seat, we finally managed to get one where we had to wait less than 20 minutes on a Wednesday night.While we waited, the hostess at the front was super nice and led us back to nightmoves(?) next door for a drink and to now wait in the cold. Before we knew it, our table was ready.We sat at the bar. It was packed and the vibe is low key pretentious tbh (from guests, not servers) but the food met the high bar.- warm bread (5/5): everything you want bread and butter to be.- yellowfin tuna (5/5): that sesame crust was bomb. Just a great, unique delicious plate.- salad (4.5/5): refreshing, well balanced- the squid (4.5/5): quite the statement dish. This was actually quite large. Perfectly charred. Didn’t love the type of peppers that accompanied it but overall a very well prepped dish.- ricotta gnudi (5/5): these were pillows of ricotta and I would definitely order this again. Quite rich.- toffee pudding (5/5): save room for dessert! This was surprisingly delicious. Loved the sweet and salty combo. I found myself spooning every last drop of this.The only thing I found slightly disappointing was the wine, honestly the ones tried were good but considering they are known for its wine, I didn’t really find the ones I tried too interesting.Was it worth the wait and effort to come dine here? I gotta say that it was. The food was just very solid and the ambiance felt like I was in someone’s home. Next time, as hard as it can be, I’ll try to make a reservation ahead of time or come again during an off hour.“
“What a fabulous meal we had a Semma. Love the atmosphere with the thatched walls and ceilings, plus for a small restaurant, they really gave ample space between the tables in our section of the restaurant. Service was very warm, informative and attentive.Things we loved:Semma Sour - this is a fabulous drink. Highly recommendGunpowder Dosa - absolutely superb, generous and delicious. Accompanying chutneys were also fantasticLamb app - super savory, delicious little lamb bones in a nice pile really gave the meal a great startLamb shank - incredible. Soft as butter, phenomenal sauce.Stuffed peppers - amazing curry, a real highlight.Did not love the oxtail as it was frankly too fatty so 2 out of 3 bites were literally globs of fat. Not the chef's fault. I think we just misordered and should have opted for a fish dish instead.Would definitely return to Semma. Where we found Masalawala sort of ungenerou in the portions, Semma is more than ample. We look forward to returning if we can ever get a reservation again!“
“if you want to have tasteful food in a great location with good service look no further! oysters are super fresh. Egg Benedict in nice variations and the banana pancakes are just a blast!Dietary restrictions: they will ask you prior for allergies etc.“
“I surprised my partner with dinner at Place des Fetes for our eleven-year anniversary. The staff and chefs went above and beyond to make the evening special and solidified the experience as a cherished memory. Thank you so much to the team at PDF!“
“I hated Lima beans, until I ate them at Contento. In fact, everything I ate there was perfection. My husband and I sat at the bar, which is exactly where I’d sit again. It’s cozy, comfortable and you can see some of the kitchen action as well as chat with fellow diners. The chef came out and helped us pick out a great bottle of wine. I use a wheelchair, which is what first attracted me to going to Contento. I appreciate feeling included. But I have recommended the place to friends and the next time I’m in New York I look forward to going back.“
“Wow, where do I begin? Little to no wait time, incredible staff, and exceptional service. My favorite was the empanadas and picana, truly one of the best in Manhattan. I would highly recommend to friends and family and would definitely come back!“
“Overall fairly interesting food. The muhammara and scallop crudo were my top 2 dishes. Our group of three all liked the muhammara and we asked for an extra order of the bread. I feel the vegetables dish were no more special than what you would find at a Chinese restaurant.“
“Food here is cooked absolutely right! State of the art. From starters to main course all is superb! Price is perfect. Great combination for a perfect night out. Lobster is tasty and well prepared. Alaskan Cod is amazing. For business or date. Look forward to being back!“
“Not a huge fan of their ramen. Got the classic tonkatsu ramen. The soup base has too strong of dashi flavor which overpowers the tonkatsu flavor. The charsu were super thinly sliced, lack depth and flavor. Not charred. I've been to hundreds of ramen joint both here in the states and Japan. This one is good but nothing to rave about.“
“OMG! I love this place. I am craving it right now as I write this review.Food:If I could live off of Adjaruli Khachapuri I would. A traditional dish that is open-faced khachapuri with a blended cheese, topped with raw egg. The egg is mixed into the cheese tableside. SOOOO GOOOOD!!!! It was so good that I had one as an appetizer and one for dinner. I also enjoyed Mushroom Khinkali (Georgian Dumplings) - another delicious dish. Lastly, I had one of their spreads - Spinach Pkhali: Spinach, walnut paste, onion, garlic, coriander and topped with Pomegranate Seeds. Super fresh and delicious.Drinks:For cocktails, we had a Sassy Tangarine: Cachaca, Cointreau, fresh lime juice, tangerine, and orange bitters and an Espresso Mama: A rich and indulgent chilled espresso cocktail with Georgian Brandy, Mr. Black, fresh espresso and simple syrup. And then with dinner, I had a flight of their famous wines - I had the Amber Wine Flight - Three different amber wine styles from different grape varieties.Service:The service was super friendly, helpful, and attentive. We sat at the bar and had a great time.Vibe:I loved sitting at the bar. I took a tour around the restaurant and if I sat at a table, I would probably want to sit in the front room or at the bar.This was a great find and I would highly recommend a visit.Date of Visit: 16 March 2024“
“What a unique and special experience. The chef considers every aspect of fine dining at his Michelin rated restaurant. Service is impeccable, quiet upscale dining with a variety of exquisite tasting food , beautiful dishes and a variety of wine to choose from with a sommelier. We wanted our children to experience a top French restaurant with a tasting menu. We enjoyed the seven course "essential menu." Dined on so many tasty dishes. Absolutely my favorite was the wagyu. Best thing I have ever tasted. It's extremely pricey so save this for something very special if cost is a factor.“
“We arrived at around 3pm as lunch service was switching to dinner, their in between menu still has lots to offer. We ordered the burger with fries and a French onion soup to share, but I regret not having it all to myself! My partner ordered a margarita which he greatly enjoyed, and I had a dirty martini which was excellent. The staff were friendly & attentive, I can’t say enough lovely things about this restaurant. I would definitely return next time we’re in New York. I don’t know what they do to their french fries but they are highly addictive and the French onion soup was as good as my mother makes which is a huge compliment. Thanks for having us!!!!“
“Food was tasty overall. Cocktails were great. Got the pandan punch (sweet). For food, we got the duck rilette, frog legs (it was alright), unisoba (uni was good quality), oxtail (favorite for the night), and their tres leches cake (it was really good). Service was amazing and so friendly.“
“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.“
“Had my birthday dinner here and it was a great place to celebrate. The ambiance is quite nice, not too quiet but not too loud with mood lighting. The bread was really good, and also really enjoyed the chicken liver agnolotti and foie gras. The half chicken and pork chops were pretty good but definitely ordered too much food. They also surprised us with a small sorbet for my birthday. The staff were very friendly and pretty attentive the whole evening.“
“This was a very nice restaurant with a nice atmosphere but I would definitely recommend it for a date night. We wanted to get the burger which is very hyped but we couldn’t because they only make 12 of those per night. The rest of the food was decent but not anything amazing. We ordered a bunch of plates and got to share the dishes which is what I would recommend.“
“This is a restaurant run by a lobster shop in Chelsea Market. There are many types of oysters, so it might be a good idea to use it as an oyster bar. It's a small shop, but the food is fresh and delicious. Also, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is good.“
“I came here on a double date with friends last Friday night and everything was absolutely phenomenal!! From the delicious food and drinks, to the friendly service and cozy ambiance, this neighborhood gem is now my favorite restaurant in all of Carroll Gardens. Will definitely be coming back again soon and recommending this place to everyone I know :) also had escargot for the first time ever and it was delicious. Everything was just amazing, I was honestly left speechless.“
“Came here to have a wine tasting with my boyfriend and his friend. As I walk in the interior design is very cool. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. Tonight wine tasting is from Sicily and the brewer is here tonight. It was a pleasure seeing him and how he explaining where the wine was from. We order a charcuterie while we taste the wine. Would recommend people to come and visit this place.“
“I start this review at the end: We will be returning to L'accolade for dinner again. I made our reservations on the same night as catching a show after dinner and so, we did not get a bottle from the wine list. The next time we go back, my husband and I have agreed to schedule dinner on it's own so that we may spend a bit more time and have a bottle from the wine list. The wine list is intriguing and electric, with many selections that my husband did not recognize, but is excited to try.I reserved at L'accolade because it was close to the venue where our show was scheduled that night and the restaurant that I first booked had removed duck (my favourite) from their menu. I wasn't sure what to expect exactly, from the online menu I was expecting something quite French, but I thought it would a bit more traditional?We were blown away and so happy I found L'accolade!Entering the restaurant we were greeted in a very professional and knowledgeable staff member, who had a great smile :)The place was hopping - lively music, lots of people having lively conversation and the interior felt like a very like we were about to dine in someone's beloved wine cave.We were seated at one of the best tables in the restaurant, I'm not sure how we got so lucky, this table was perfect for us.The gentleman was taking care of us primarily let us know we arrived at Happy Hour and that the drink specials were still on, so we began with a cocktail. I rarely have gin so opted for the Lavande, which features one of my fav flavour combinations, lavender and lemon and it was the perfect start to my meal. My husband requested a vodka martini on ice with three olives and our gentleman asked he if wanted it dirty - always the sign that someone knows their martinis! My husband answered "A little" and our gentleman knew exactly what was what :DWe greatly enjoyed our cocktails while we made our decisions about our meals. My husband looked over the wine list and was surprised to see many selections he was unfamiliar with, it was decided that if the food was good, we would be back to try a bottle from the wine list.At the perfect moment, the gentleman taking care of us returned to take our food orders and wine for our mains. We were very happy to be informed how each of our mains would be served - both medium rare, which is our preferred cook. I am not sure how others feel about this, but for my husband and I, we were reminded of our recent trip to Paris and take as a sign that the chef is well-trained in the French style. This was a touch that really made us smile, thank you.I had the Hamachi Tartare, it was beautifully presented, balanced, tasted of freshness and just a touch of acidity. I was worried it wouldn't taste right with my cocktail, but it was quite complimentary.My husband opted for the Seared Scallops which looked dramatic and perfect on his plate. He greatly enjoyed them and, of course, loved his martini.The staff is attentive without being overbearing, it reminded us greatly of French service with a friendly American twist. One of the things that stood out to us about the staff is that they genuinely seem to like working here and to also like each other, it's a really great environment to spend time in.Our table was clear and our mains presented in perfect timing and our dinner wine were brought over at exactly the right moment.My husband had the Beef Strip Loin, which included a serving of bone marrow. His plate was dramatic and he loved it. My husband that although he doesn't usually enjoy bone marrow, it was delicious and he finished it all off. We really appreciate the staff member who was attentive enough to realize that my husband needed a spoon without us asking, thank you, thank was very kind.I had the duck. It was the reason that we booked here and it was wonderful - perfectly cooked, the sides were tasty and balanced. It was the kind of duck that I will think about for a long time.We are so happy that we had dinner here and have been talking about it since we visited.“
“This wine bar in midtown is a gem among the sea of Irish Pubs and delis. The service is top-notch and international, adding to the welcoming vibe. Went alone, sat at the bar and ordered a charcuterie which was excellent value and quality, paired perfectly with bold reds, handpicked with the help of their awesome servers. Loved it.“
“Visited bass on other tourist recommendations for a late breakfast. However it wasn't till I sat down that I was informed that the brunch offering was only available on the weekends.Having already been seated, it would have been rude to leave. I ordered the chicken salad dish which was delicious and well balanced. A tad over priced for what was served but in all an enjoyable meal.“
“Wonderful dining experience! The space is small and cozy, the cocktails delicious, and we were treated with such warmth, kindness and respect, like we were in someone’s home. This is how dining out should be. The seating can get quite tight later into the dinner hour, so try not to bring big coats or bags! They will check them for you downstairs though, if you’d like.Also get the bread with butter, it’s the most delicious butter I’ve ever tasted. No diet-just do it!“
“It was my first time in a Persian Restaurant.I love the food and the service. Server Jesus took care of us and loved all the recommendations that he suggested to us. He just made our night.Wine list is amazing and the reserve is magnificent.Absolutely gonna come back.“
“After a hectic day of exploring, my group of friends and I stumbled upon a charming restaurant with a limited number of seats. The cozy setup felt like a gathering in someone's kitchen, creating an intimate space for our lively group. The kitchen's aromatic symphony and the friendly staff set the stage for an enjoyable evening. Knowing that the ingredients were sourced locally added a layer of appreciation to the culinary experience. It was a delightful find that turned a casual dinner into a memorable, homey affair.“
“I was up and down about buying this pizza because of the cost...HOWEVER, I thought I'd give it a try. It arrived today...Man. REAL PIZZA after 20 years of being GF. It was delicious! I've order online frozen items (cookies, pizza, apps etc) before and this was, by far, the best delivery result. Frozen solid, minimal waste and even the GF taramisu I was nervous about experienced no thawing. It was supposed to be for someone else but oops, so good my taste testing went a bit too far. What taramisu?? :) I ordered 3 GF pizzas and have only tried the sausage and mushroom so far. The crust edge was crispy on the outside and soft in the middle while the pizza itself cooked up nicely. I like mine a bit well done and even doing so, the toppings didn't burn. My ONLY complaint was it needed a bit more sauce for my personally liking and because it was fresh and tasty, I wanted more. Maybe a side to dip my crust in?? What? Yes. Great job Kreste!“
“This is an upscale restaurant inside the RH hotel. If you are searching for a great and beautiful restaurant, this is one of a few in this area. Service and food is great, but what impressed me the most was the price. This is a 30-50 not a 50-100 per person. You can check the menu. You don’t have food and 3 drinks in a restaurant and people not necessarily order the most expensive dish in groups. If you like good food at great price this is it. The crowd seems to be young professionals to business owners, but I was with my family and our toddler and were welcomed in a typical NY style. Come and try it, we spent around $178 and it was us 3. Def will came back for a special dinner and prob seat outside. Please reserve a table. It’s a must.“
“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.“
“The pistachio pasta is the best. The Portugese octopus appetizer was just as good as Europe and the beet salad was the perfect mix of soft cheese and flavor. One of the teenagers had the pasta with the fries procutto and pecorino cheese, it was also just as good as the pistachio pasta. It was full even at 8p for our reservation so either reserve or visit as a smaller party to get seated easily.“
“Cozy, dimly lit wine bar that is inviting. Prices for happy hour are very reasonable, a bottle of red wine costing $44. For nibbles we tried the goat and double cream cow cheese that came with a homemade apricot jam and spicy chutney - both which were very good. We sat at the bar in front of where they were prepping ingredients so got some marcona almonds and a spoonful of their delicious chocolate mousse. Would definitely come back.“
“Zorbey, our waiter, was beyond helpful and made our experience that much more enjoyable as this was my first time at this establishment! I will certainly be coming back for more of his recommendations and white glove service. Thank you again!“
“The Chimi pizza was bomb! The dough was baked just right not too burnt not too soft perfect and crunchy.Don’t get me started on the Dominican Pizza. It was so good it took me back to thanksgiving with my aunt who makes it perfectly. It took me back home and almost made me search the kitchen for my aunt?.Owner was great interacted with us and made conversation very genuine and warm welcomingParking: Parking was pretty decent. Not great not badKid-friendliness: Music was clean and up beat“
“Went a few weeks ago. My brother happens to be the Chef. As much as I want to give him a bad review for that time he wrecked my Lego 25 years ago, (still haven’t forgotten Jean) I do have to say this spot is awesome in their service with great wine recommendations, phenomenal food, and pleasant environment.Would strongly recommend for anyone to go. And if you do happen to go, ask for the Chef and let them know Nick hasn’t forgotten and will have his revenge someday.Temperance wine bar - 5 starsChef as a brother - 2.6 stars (…it was a cool Lego)“
“Food is really good here, literally every bite was delicious. We went for brunch, had the French toast brulee, squid sandwich, sausage egg & cheese sandwich, cheddar Biscuit ... everything was top notch, bread and buns freshly baked! The drinks were fantastic, bloody mary, lime and salt mocktail. Service was excellent quick, efficient. We're definitely coming back very soon!Kid-friendliness: The accommodated our infant and stroller easily!“
“This was a great find! Beautiful gem of a restaurant tucked away in bedstuy. Food recommendations were really appreciated as well as a nice bottle of red wine to pair with our meal. We will definitely come back and highly recommend. Great date spot!“
“I had such a great time at Cozy Royale yesterday! I had been wanting to visit this spot for a minute and I was finally in the neighborhood so decided to slide by. Service was excellent, and the cheeseburger definitely lived up to the hype! I have to come back and try the famous martinis, they look sooo good! My one recommendation is to make a reservation especially if you’re coming on the weekend! ?“
“This is easily one of the best dining experiences that I've had in NYC since I moved here eight years ago. Before coming in, I had never had Georgian food before and didn't know what to expect. Every single item was absolutely delicious and the service was even better. I was curious about the amber wine and the server was nice enough to give me a taste before pouring a full glass. Even the Georgian sparkling water was tasty. Not to mention, the actual decor and energy of the restaurant was so great. Everybody in there seemed happy and it was pretty packed for a Wednesday night but still intimate. Before we left, our food was boxed up and we got a handwritten note with our receipt. I'll definitely be back sooner than later!“
“Edit to add- manager quickly responded and refunded my meal. I can’t think of anything more they could’ve done, but that quick response and apology helped me decide to change the experience to 5 stars.Original review: Got seated and waited for 20 minutes at my table. After the first 5-10 minutes had passed, I asked several staff when I’d be waited on, and nobody waited on me. I watched people come in *after* me get waited on, as I continued to be ignored. They did manage to take the extra chair and place setting away from my table, just to remind me I was dining alone (which was tough, since I’m recently widowed and dining alone is difficult enough as it is) - I asked each time who was my server and they looked around and left. I saw someone who looked like a manager walking around, and every so often she looked at me, so I know she knew I was there. How didn’t she notice the menu still sitting on the table? I left because I needed to get going on my day and don’t have all morning to sit and watch wait staff wait on everyone except me - room service was an option. I went back to my room and ordered room service instead, which came relatively quickly, but with missing items (no brown sugar, no regular sugar for my coffee, just fake sweeteners, and a very small container of maple syrup after I had asked for extra (since my kid didn’t want the rum anglaise) - came with a tiny bit in a small creamer container. I called down for more maple syrup (French toast is dry without it), and they said they’d send some to my room. Never. came. The food is great, but the service was non-existent for me in the restaurant, and very poor when needed to fix missing room service items. $21 for French toast should come with better follow up when the restaurant makes a mistake and needs to send more syrup as requested. My $14 oatmeal was bland without any brown sugar. My $7 pot of coffee tasted off with just fake sugar available. Very disappointing experience. I gave three stars since the food is prepared well. This isn’t a kitchen problem, it’s a customer service failure. I can’t remember the last time I was somewhere with service this bad, so I felt compelled to give feedback.“
“Our first time trying Georgian food. We asked our waiter for recommendations and he suggested the cheese bread, chicken in walnut sauce, cauliflower, mushrooms, and taste of Georgia plate. We added in dumplings. There were 3 of us so we got all the recommendations, all delicious!! He brought us a great wine to pair after listening to our taste preference. Entire staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely return.“
“Italian-American owner, a place to enjoy an Italian style aperitif: cocktails, wine and beers with excellent cheese platters, and absolutely excellent cold cuts platters. Then sandwiches or various appetizers. It's not a restaurant but it's worth the trip.“
“So romantic and the service is always ready to handle your every need. Cocktails went down so smooth and the chef is kind enough to give complimentary dishes to enhance the experience. This was a celebration of my love’s birthday and definitely will be one to remember. Highly recommend sunset reservations and do them in advance as they book quickly.“
“It's just a stellar place, the interior is gorgeous, and our party decided to stay in the outdoor cabin. For a party of six, it was cozy but be wary of be who sits on the outside sometimes that wind will cut deep between the sliver of an opening. The food and service was exceptional. Truly great experience. It “
“Highly recommend Bar Vinazo. I was there with a large group and we had arranged a tasting menu. Everything was delicious. From the bread (sourced from Winner) to the olives/cheese to the croquetas to the tortillas española to the-out-of this-world chicken, we couldn't go wrong. The chef is clearly talented. The service was also impeccable. I will be back.“
“Their aged burger is a flavor-packed delight, while the Eggs and Mayonnaise dish offers a unique twist on a classic. And don't miss their comforting fish pie. With cozy ambiance and attentive service, it's a dining experience you won't forget!“
“Came here with a large group of friends and had an incredible time! Everything I ate and drank was absolutely delicious and tasted so authentic. I would definitely recommend the Golgappa as an appetizer and the Lotan ke Chole as an entree! Add the Pipli cocktail and it’s a perfect night :)“
“Lively place. My friend from Italy he recommended this place. We were group of 9, mostly vegetarian. Excellent service and everyone loved the food. The portions were pretty good size. Highly recommend and can’t wait to back out. Yes, good for date as I saw few couple and great for friends night out as well.“
“Fantastic date spot in West Village. Cozy interior and options for outdoor seating. Authentic French cuisine and vibes. Loved the cocktails and service was friendly and quick. Went here for brunch before a jazz show nearby. Highly recommend.“
“Cozy place, beautifully decorated. Sounds system is great. Karaoke on Thursdays is fun, and the "worst singer" gets a prize! The food is really good but the drinks are on the expensive side.Parking: Tiny parking lot. Try to get in there. We got a ticket for parking on the street with no residential tag. Also, the owner had some visitor tags you can use to avoid getting a ticket non-resident ?“
