Came for an early lunch and the cappuccino was hot and perfect. Good service and nice open space for a NY restaurant. The popovers were a little too hard and crispy for my liking but I did enjoy the grilled chicken ceasar salad. Good breakfast or lunch spot.

Everything I had here was so good! The atmosphere is very fancy and the place is huge. The staff was very nice and helpful. Crab guac is a must!!

Swung by Sarabeth's in New York for a pre-show happy hour and a quick bite. It was great! The place was huge, very pretty , and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. Shoutout to our waiter, I wish I caught his name, who recommended the tomato soup- it was SO good! A perfect start to a fantastic evening.

I had a wonderful time at this location of Sarabeth's. I went with 2 friends and we got a variety of things to share. The deviled eggs and seasonal fruit salad were delicious. We wanted OJ but it was like $15 a glass so we passed but it did look incredible. The French toast was also yummy, though I do wish they had some sort of berry compote to top it. The avocado toast isn't any better than what you could make at home. The star of the show was absolutely the grilled cheese with the best tomato soup I've ever had in my life. Would absolutely return just for that. Had a great time and will be back. Our server was very attentive and kind. It's very busy but it's nice, clean, and comfortable inside.

Salutations to all,I usually leave reviews while I am present inside the restaurant or setting but unfortunately my phone was dead. Fear not, here I am. I came to the restaurant 02/29/24 at around 6:00PM. I was greeted at the front door by the front desk and given a business card. Then, the front desk asked me if I would like to open a tab. I handed them my custom Cashapp card to see how they would handle a unique approach other than a typical credit card. The transaction was smooth and there was no judgement. I was able to seat myself and place myself wherever I felt comfortable around the bar area. My server was professional, prompt, dressed appropriately, upright and straight back, proper mannerism and etiquette, clean shoes, clean shaved, proper gestures for a high class setting. I ordered the Rosé as a first choice drink and I received the proper serving size in the proper glass. The wine was subperv after passing a wine tasting that involed reading the smell, taste, color, smoothness, etc. I ordered the Tuna Tartare Tacos and the food was created well with proper handling of raw tuna. All very fresh, lots of color, appropriate, professional design with the sauce, beautiful placement of tacos on metal rack. I asked the server for a drink that is smooth, bubbly, and sweet. The server recommended Pinot Noir. I received the beverage and it was exactly what I asked for and as promised. I then asked the server what drink was the most affordable and most popular. The server recommended Newburgh Brewing. The server mentioned the drink is popular due to price and the citrus flavor. I agree with the server and the drink was very good. I enjoyed the high-class setting, music, and TV. The place was very clean, professional, high-class, and vibrant. One day I hope to come during happy hour. I came alone to be amongst high-class individuals in a vibrant environment. Also, I enjoy giving professional drop-in reviews.I seen that Sarabeth's recieved some poor reviews despite the visible perfect quality. I came to help Sarabeth's. It appears that some people do not understand that Sarabeth's is high-class and requires a different mental approach. This is not just a typical place you drop in for a random meal. This is a place for you to feel like you are being served by Jeffery refrencing The Fresh Prince of Bell Air TV show. People, please do not defeat the purpose of fine dining or unfortunately, there won't be any fine dining. The pricing is appropriate due to the quality and quantity of what you are recieving on your plate. This is boiled down to how the food is cooked to perfection. Like Chef Ramsay Hells Kitchen. People need to not fixate on the price and sizing but on how the food is cooked, decoration, seasoning, etc. Pretend like you are a judge on Hells Kitchen. I see that unfortunately low IQ individuals can try to destroy a business due to their ignorance or uneducation.I personally did not order the avacodo toast because of the price. I pictured in my mind bread and avocado something that I could do at home, but now that I see there is a perfectly poached egg on top of the toast which is hard to achieve unless you are professionally trained. I actually one day would like to try it. This is a place for tastings not to fill up like Applebee's.Recommendations: Have the server ask the customer if they would want them to call a taxi. Mention that the taxi is not paid for but merely an extension to customer service.To reduce negative reviews due to changing times, have the customer fill out a 2-5 question survey on a tablet or kiosk upon entry. Ask questions about their expectations and also give them a serving number. Then based upon their expectations give an additional shorten menu with alternative choices.Example: What type of food did you come to try? Then mention some select items off your menu and also alternative items that are not on your main menu such as burger and fries. You could also ask: Why have you come to this location today? Answers could be: a referral, socialism, drinks, food, fine

We arrived on time to our reservation for nine (6 adults 3 kiddos) The hostess pointed and said our table wasn’t quite ready. (None of our party minded waiting for a bit - obviously it wasn’t a table for two and much harder to accommodate) My husband who wasn’t paying attention asked what was going on and me thinking the hostess pointed to the table next to us - I explained that they weren’t ready for us yet and I pointed to the table that I believed the hostess had pointed at. Another worker at the front loudly said EXCUSE ME - WHO SAID THAT WAS YOUR TABLE?! I explained that the hostess just pointed at it and the blonde said “No! (rolled eyes) That is NOT YOUR table.” To which I replied “alright” and then we were shown to a different table in the back. The entire exchange felt completely unnecessary and rude considering I wasn’t complaining about the table not being ready and I wasn’t speaking to anyone but my husband. It would have been apparent that I misunderstood if the staff member just waited for us to be shown to our table. I’m giving just two star largely due to this initial interaction. (Although every other interaction with other staff members were great and everyone else was very kind) The other reason for the low stars is that the food was alright- just not worth the price tag. I ordered avocado toast with a poached egg. $26 for one thin slice of bread with glorified guacamole on top, the small poached egg and a very small amount of greens with three grape tomato halves on the side ($22 without the egg) my husband had the salmon benedict. While nothing was wrong with either dish the helpings were small - we were still hungry after our meal (this has literally never happened at a restaurant we’ve gone to before although quite honestly most restaurants seem to give too much food)Point being there are so many restaurants in New York where the food is AMAZING and you pay the same amount as you would at sarabeths or you get the same good quality of food with more of it for less $$$. For what I heard was an NYC institution Sarabeths was a huge letdown. Hard pass on coming again.

A great spot to stop for brunch in New York when you’re at the foot of Central Park. Firstly the service was excellent and we appreciate the staff highly. The food was very good and wonderfully presented, we added Popovers which we had never heard of before, but are crunchy Yorkshire puddings served with jam and marmalade- not sure that works tbh, but would be great with roast beef and was something different. As you can imagine it was not the cheapest place to eat, but we enjoyed it apart from feeling a little squashed on the table.

This is my favorite place for brunch in the city. The food is almost always fresh and delicious, I'm a huge fan of their omelettes! We went here for my daughter’s fifth birthday and the staff was so sweet and inviting to her. Can't recommend Sarabeth's enough.

Place does a land office business for brunch, appropriately so. Check out the prix fixe dinner menu, a steal. Another great thing is they have a nice selection of half bottles when 750cc is too much.There's a trendy place across the street, and you'll get a better meal at a better price with a friendlier welcome here.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy accessibility from the sidewalk

We had eagerly anticipated trying out Sarabeth's for quite some time, keeping up with their enticing updates on social media. The perfect opportunity presented itself this weekend, as we found ourselves in New York to celebrate my wife's 40th birthday. Opting for the Park Avenue South location, we were met with an experience that left no room for criticism.The staff exuded warmth, creating an inviting atmosphere that was both relaxed and comfortable. As for the food, it was nothing short of incredible. We indulged in the wild mushroom scramble popovers and the eggs and bacon with a delectable Banana muffin. Every dish was impeccably prepared and utterly delicious, with special mention going to the muffin and homemade jams, which proved to be a highlight.Anticipation for our next visit is already building, and we can't wait to savor the exceptional dining experience at Sarabeth's once again the next time we're in town.
