“Waited an hour in line but the food was well worth the wait! They use the right amount of 5 spice season to make the chicken perfectly seasoned. Despite the long wait, you're not guaranteed a table. We were in the front. This place is not ideal for groups of 3 if you're trying to get into the back room. The hostess wouldn't even put us on the waitlist for the back room.“
“We came across this restaurant from a viral social post and didnt have any expectations honestly. The food was EXCELLENT and it had been a while since we’ve said that about a trending restaurant in NYC. We started with the wings that were some of the best wings I’ve ever had ( they serve it piping with a side of soaked towels to wash your hands) and the bone marrow was OUT OF THIS WORLD. Served on the bone with a side of buttery toast to place the marrow on and a delicious onion jam that sealed the deal. Then we had their famous burger with bacon and egg and it did not disappoint and a shaved prime rib that was AMAZING with a side of bacon Mac and cheese (we came hungry lol). Finished with the chocolate cream pie and key lime pie that sent us. Now the food was amazing but I have to say our server Ariana was what made our overall experience a 10/10. She was the BEST server we have experienced in a long time. She was so friendly, outgoing, and perfectly attentive and really made our night extra special to be honest. WE WILL BE BACK!“
“Had a wonderful meal this evening at Upland, really enjoyed my artichoke entree and was pleasantly surprised by my lobster main! Luis was so professional and attentive, I loved my complimentary guava sorbet and the honey ice cream was also delish. I highly recommend them, thank you for taking such good care of me for the two hours I was with you.“
“I really wanted a tasty burger. I've arrived. Nice, cozy...I took the burger. And they stuffed so much finely chopped grass into it that it felt like you weren’t eating meat, but had become a vegan...The chicken is delicious, the sauce is just greatFrench fries are very, very goodOverall a good place, but the burger was disappointing“
“I enjoyed their burger which tasted fresh. Their fries were nice and crispy. We were able to split a small order of fries between 2 people. The service was great. Seating is limited. I wouldn’t agree that they have the best burger in NYC but it was still good.“
“I always walked by and knew the name from living in Chicago. The iconic building always intrigued me and last night, I was lucky to find a table during peak dinner rush.I was guided to their newly rennovated 'Sidecar'. We sat upstairs and loved being able to look over 3rd avenue. The service was so attentive -- from being immediately greeted to the servers always offering to clear plates and offer new ones. I had the Cadillac burger and it came with a generous portion of french fries.The desserts surpassd expectation, i got the brownie sundae but learned the cheesecake and apple crisp are made in-house so I need to come back and try that.Shout out to my server Nicole and Marianna for making PJ Clarke's especially memorable and a new found staple in my dinner rotation in midtown.“
“I love this Craft Beer and Burgers but this place is amazing is like you were in Disneyland roller coaster of flavors and I’m very thankful to my Server Kendra L. Briggs to take care any time and how she’s rolling this place from the beginning to the end great food experience and service as well!!!!!“
“This is my 2nd time trying 7th street burger.NYC has been in a major Smash patty Renaissance lately and 7th Street seems to be on many peoples list.The burger is good. The bun is slightly toasted. Great cheese coverage. As I felt the 1st time I think the patty itself can be seasoned more. A bit more seasoning and it levels up the burger.All in all it's still a great burger to grab“
“I had such a wonderful experience at Royale. First it has an awesome bar and restaurant indoors and the space outdoors is beautifully decorated. I have celiac disease and they had the most delicious gluten free nachos (made on site) ever! They were perfect. I was so happy I could have them and they were excellent! Great atmosphere and food! Highly recommend when in the Village.“
“Great food from a vegan business run by vegans. The "chicken legs" are amazing and my daughter said the mac n cheese was the best she has ever tasted. Super friendly and enthusiastic staff. Whilst primarily a take-out there is a small seating area for those wanting to eat in. Highly recommended.“
“On the way through from financial district to chinatown, we stopped by for a few drinks and a small snack. Our server Alex was a great person being. So kind and direct, we from Austria are not used to it!We loved our stay and it is a have to visit when we return to this beautiful city.“
“Great old school soup and sandwich joint. Counter seating with a small area with tables in back. They were out of borscht, so I will try my luck next time. I got the cheeseburger with special sauce, my friends got club sandwiches, all were good. They even have a Mel Brooks sandwich! The fries are a round "chips" style and are a side order were perfectly salted and tasty!“
“Great hole in the wall diner. If you like authentic diner food, great spot. Went there Sunday around 1pm, other restaurants in the area were packed. Waited outside for a little bit but was seated quickly. Inside only seats maybe 20, small area but friendly staff. Had the French Toast and would recommend it. Great option for brunch or breakfast would come back to try it for lunch. Great location and close to a lot of shopping. Also good diner prices for New York.Atmosphere - 5/5Food - 5/5Price - 5/5Food - 5/5“
“I was super skeptical to try this at first because it didn’t seem authentic but after i gave it a try i had to come back 2 more times because it was GREAT. Jerk chicken over rice is on top. I’d recommend this to anyone especially if you’re tired of a basic chicken over rice platter. Make sure to get their dragon sauce.“
“Wanted to try something new and stumbled upon this place. The environment is warm, friendly, and aesthetically pleasing. Staff are polite and sweet. As someone who isn't vegan, I was pleasantly surprised by the flavorful and delicious food; it's hard to believe it's all vegan. I would definitely return to Next Stop Vegan again.“
“Incredible experience! Okay you have to queue for an hour to get a place but it's worth it. The prices are correct for NY and given the show offered by the servers. The dishes are good and it's very funny to see his waiter bring us our order then continue with singing or do both at the same time. I highly recommend, a must when visiting NY.“
“I was not disappointed at all, even though I had to wait ~15 minutes for a solo counter seat. I had the fried onion burger, and it was beautifully cooked. The fries are McDonald's style, double fried. The key lime pie was also worth getting. Considering I had all that and a diet coke for under $25, in Manhattan, I was impressed.“
“This is a family owned restaurant in Hell’s Kitchen that takes that to heart. The food is fantastic and service is fast. It just has that bit of personality that makes it feel like a place out of a small town instead of the middle of Manhattan—and that’s a really good thing.My one suggestion would be to maybe add an impossible burger, turkey burger, or a chicken dish to the menu. If you don’t eat beef, there’s not a lot of protein options…but it’s also a burger place so what does one expect.Definitely check this place out :)Vegetarian options: Grilled cheese, veggie burger“
“We were a group of 25 with a preset menu of 4 selections. The service was very friendly, the meals were delicious and service was great. We had a birthday to celebrate and you joined us in song and music. Thank you for a memorable lunch with our visitors from Israel.“
“This place has gotten a lot of hype, so I had to see whether it was worth it or not. To set expectations, this is not fast food. There was a line out the door on a Saturday at 2 p.m. It moved pretty fast though, and I only waited about 20 minutes. Once I ordered, it took a little over 10 minutes for my food to be ready. They have limited seating, but there's someone at the door who only lets people in when seating opens up. I ordered a Double Gotham Smash burger with a side of fries. The ingredients were fresh, and the burger had so much flavor. The fries could've been better. They didn't have much flavor at all. Is this the best burger I've had in NYC? No, but it's one of the best I've had. My only complaint is that it's a little pricey. 8 fried pickles slices are $8, and fountain drinks are $4.“
“My wife and I visited Handcraft Burgers and Brews for my birthday this past weekend. As soon as my wife opened the menu she knew that I was going to have to try the burger of the month which was a peanut butter and grape jelly topped hamburger with jalapenos, bacon and cheese. Admittedly I have never had peanut butter and jelly on a burger before but I figured I would try something new and see what all of the hype was about. Turns out, I loved it! Every bite was so flavorful and completely made my birthday lunch a worthwhile venture! We also tried the tater tots, because who doesn't love a good tater tot. We could have chosen from multiple dipping sauces but we decided to go with the garlic aioli and I am glad we did. I dipped each of my tater tots in the sauce and there was plenty for both of us to share. We were helped by Vanessa at the restaurant and she was very accommodating when I was having trouble using a coupon that I had for my birthday. All in all this was a wonderful choice for my birthday lunch and when we are in the area again I would definitely stop by and perhaps try the latest burger of the month along with some tater tots and garlic aioli dipping sauce of course!“
“Without a doubt, the best smash burger in all of New York. I don’t know what these guys did, but they figured it out. The burgers have a perfect ratio of meat, cheese, sauce, and onions, all piled on a nice brioche-like bun. If you want something quick and pretty much anytime of the day, this place has got to be on your list. Hits the spot every time.“
“Staff knows me on a first name basis and that good work speaks for itself. Thank you.Vegetarian options: it's all what there what you need.Dietary restrictions: it's listedParking: parking on 25th street nyc between Broadway and 6th Avenue.Kid-friendliness: Very polite and courtesy counts.Wheelchair accessibility: there's a ramp.“
“I’m giving this place a 5 star because the quality of Smash Burger was consistent and great. It’s one of the best burgers I have tried (out of all the places I have too in Brooklyn)Good selection of salads that always come fresh. If you are coming here for the first time, try their sambusa, burgers, lamb soup (traditionally prepared) or lagman dish (with in-house handmade noodles). It’s a little spicy, you may want to opt out of it.Burger meat has tasted great at all times. After coming here for more than 5 times, I can confirm that you won’t regret with one of the dishes I recommended.Service has always been great and on point. Sometimes they may give you a space, but they quick to react if you need anything.Go with their Kompot for a drink (good balance of sugar and it’s not that sweet) or any other drinks of your preference.Lastly, they are keep improving, which is a great sign.“
“I went mid afternoon and it was not busy at all on a Monday. The server and hostess were very attentive and our waters were never empty. I got the famous burger and let me tell you it was really good. I loved the bun. It came out warm and melted. Definitely a 9/10 burger. The fries were good. They gave a generous portion of fries.“
“Excellent place to eat very good burgers at good prices!Supplements (lettuce, tomatoes, etc.) are not expensive. I recommend taking the double given the minimal difference in price with the single and that allows you to be well positioned. The fries are great! Finally, the waiters/cooks were very nice.“
“We stumbled upon it by chance, wandering around the area and entered attracted by the menu. The place is special, the girls who serve the tables are really thoughtful and kind. Very good fries and also the salmon burger sandwich, good, plentiful and not overly seasoned like everything else in these parts.“
“More than positive experience! Nice and very welcoming place... I would also say very careful in detail. very courteous staff. Food EXCELLENT! Exceptional burgers to say the least. The meat and the overall quality of the sandwich were excellent. The sandwich ? itself is also very good, as it doesn't crumble in your hands while eating. Good value for money, taking into account that you are still in New York and not Rome... Definitely recommended ???“
“Excellent service and great atmosphere! Everyone is so attentive and helpful. The food is delicious and affordable. Their happy hour is really good. The drinks are well made and they are not cheap with the liquor.Well done guys, we will be back soon!!“
“Dougie and Preston make the place such a vibe!!! So lucky to have this place in the neighborhood except it is kinda dangerous because I can't stay away. Good drinks, cutie boys and lively energy- what more could you ask for?!?!?? Service and atmosphere is just emphasized by these bartenders! I was sitting at the bar enjoying my Sunday. Then the manager or someone started to take inventory right next to me, it was pretty annoying and just felt rude energy besides that a really fabulous time.“
“Fantastic American lunch spot! I had the chicken sandwich and the sriracha mayo was just immaculate. The atmosphere of the restaurant was great and we were seated right away without any reservation. The staff and servers were also very kind and helpful throughout our meal! Would recommend to anyone wanting a good lunch in Manhattan!“
“i came on a saturday afternoon and i eat at alot of burger spots,but stackd burger backs the taste up,the texas burger the onion ring was nice and soo crispy,the burger also had flavor,and their fries are nice and crispy,i will be back to try out the fried egg “
“- If your looking for one of the best burgers you ever had, or just something to stand out from the onslaught of restaurants in Times Square area, Dark Side Of The Moon is the place to visit. Not only is it one the best names in restaurant history, it is one of the best burgers I've had nationwide. What really stood out was their choice of exotic meats. You can choose from alligator sausage, kangaroo, bison, elk, camel and yak burgers and they even have wild boar tacos. The yak burger stood up to their claim that it is the best meat they offer. Never have I had such a flavorful burger. Who knew yak would be so delicious. The owner was not only the host but also the server and worked hard to make the experience memorable. It's always a pleasure to see an owner who cares enough to work the trenches to assure his diners leave happy and satisfied. Will definitely return as there is a plethora of menu options still to try. If you have a chance to stop by and try their burgers I suggest you do just that.“
“The food is delicious I come here all the time and every time I come they treat me with respect on top of that The store is always clean and you get to choose so many toppings from the salad bar they have quesadillas. Barbecue pops, platter, the burgers and when I tell you this place it’s amazing. CANT GO WRONG!!“
“My wife and I came here since she's eaten here before and wanted me to try it,1st the bad. Our server was ok. We were asked if we wanted pickles and red beats but never brought them, and we really wanted to try it. And we were offered lemons for our water and never got them.Now for the good. IT was pretty busy in there and I was surprised at how fast our food was made and at our table. I was also caught off guard by the fact that the burger was hot! I rarely have a burger come out hot and dam fresh, and despite mine being well done, I needed to use my napkin. After every bite, it was that juicy. Awsome burger! The fries were decent and I liked the batter on the onion rings. Definitely recommend. Trust the fat guy, he knows good food..“
“Amazing find! My wife, my son and I had brunch here today. And we will definitely go back soon. The food and service were amazing. My wife and I had the Griddle with home fries amazing. My son was very happy with his waffles and chicken strips. I rarely if ever leave reviews. But this place is such a gem the deserve the acknowledgement.“
“I went for an iftar and the food is sooo good. I have had this place on my list for over a year, and should have come sooner. The burger was so delicious. the quality of meat ?? The lamb chops were uniquely spicy and full of flavor.I dont often eat burgers, but I will come back again during Ramadan. Craving it at the moment.“
“Loved the impossible vegetarian burgers! They’re so warm and dense - very much a filling lunch! We also enjoyed the crispy fries but wish the portion size was larger. Service was also wonderful.The restaurant has 3 indoor tables (fitting 6), and outside tables for sitting & standing. Best to do pickup and walk to the park.“
“Stopped by for aperitivo hour. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us out with selections. The cauliflower bites were so good, and the homemade focaccia was so fresh and soft, I highly recommend! We also ordered the burrata that went great with the focaccia.“
“Just came back from Mother's Day Brunch with my sons and husband. Food was excellent as was the service! Beet salad was so good, burgers cooked to perfection, shakshuka with merguez sausage was delicious, the white truffles pizza with poached eggs was amazing!! Thank you Wild for a 100% gluten free restaurant with 100% great food!“
“An impressive selection of CBs ranging from refreshing flagship pilsners and lagers at approx. 5% alc. content, to bold IPAs with around 7% ABV, and even indulgent rich barrel-aged stouts boasting 10-13% ABV. The staff is efficient and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant experience. One tip: if you plan on ordering food, it's advisable to do so nearer to the entrance before proceeding to the counter beer seats to avoid missing out on the opportunity to pay with your credit card!“
“Four of us dined. Three had the ribeye, medium rare, and they were delicious. One had the filet mignon cooked medium. It was overcooked, no pink, and tough. Loaded baked potato and asparagus were fine; nothing special. Chocolate torte and warm butter cake desserts were good. The service was fine; waiter was pleasant. Overall though, prices versus the actual quality/taste received were a bit on the high side.“
“Definitely lived up to the social media hype and no doubt best tavern burger in Queens. One can choose any burger on their extensive burger menu with a side of fries or onion rings for less than 20 bucks, it’s a deal I’m willing to sign up for every day.We went on a Thursday late afternoon and place was energetic and lively, just what you expect from a well-known busy tavern. I can only imagine what it’s like on weekends when they have live band.Donovan’s is the real deal.“
“A damn good burger! ? Seriously I’ve had a lot of burgers in my life and burgers happen to be my favorite food but this all American cheeseburger from @cake_burgers has to be one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. I mean from the top to the bottom the soft, perfectly toasted brioche bun, to the perfectly crisp and fresh lettuce and tomatoes and melty cheese, and their special burger sauce?! Whenever a restaurant has a special sauce I have to try it because I have high expectations and this one exceeded it. The grilled onions made it even better! The meat was perfectly cooked and so juicy. It was like my dream burger had finally come to fruition. I am also a big sweet potato fries lover and they make the PERFECT sweet potato fries, everything is balanced so nicely from seasoning to texture. It’s no surprise the chef has past experience working at Michelin star restaurants and even received compliments from THE Anthony Bourdain!!!! I can’t wait to come back and try their specialty cakes and other desserts! My new favorite burger joint ??Plus the owners are so sweet and kind and provide amazing service and fun and welcoming atmosphere!“
“Food is really good but I waited nearly 20 minutes for my food. The burgers are great. Staff is friendly. They’re not wrong when they say you should get a double. I had two singles. The regular mash is good and the spicy mash is unique. The honey definitely makes it taste different than other burgers. Will definitely be back to try other parts of the menu.Parking: Parking is not too bad. Located right at the end of a busy Main Street. Not all of the meters work though“
“The service was immaculate. Ana did a fantastic job at giving us a great experience. It was our first time here and she was attentive, kind, and fun! At the end she let us spin the wheel to win a prize and I got a free soda, but I was a little bummed because I wanted to win a free shot, but she gave me it anyways! Not just the service, but the food was actually really good. It is a lowkey place, but with great food with great portions for a fair price. The drinks were definitely potent as well. We ordered the arepas for 2 that came with nachos, colombian hot dog, premium steak fries that came with a fire show, sangria, and a modelo. Everything was so filling that I had to take most of the food to go. I would recommend this place to everyone!!“
“Walked in thinking it's an Irish bar, walked out having one of the best times ever at any bar. This is a gay bar on steroids but that's what makes it oh so better. I know what you straights are thinking, but this place is Uber welcoming of people from all walks of the road. Probably one of my most favorite random bars of all time. The food was great and priced even better. The staff was Uber friendly and the drinks were top notch. The crowd was the happiest and sweetest crowd of all time. Tbh not a single sour puss! Highly recommend this place for everyone and anyone! The music, the food, the drinks, the staff, the atmosphere... all so fun that honestly I kinda wish I was gay now lol. Give this place a shot, you won't regret it!“
“This is honestly the best burger spot in NYC! The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. There’s so many varieties of burgers to choose from even if you’re vegan and/or have allergies. Great friendly service and the ambience is really cool and modern, especially since the restaurant is like in the cut. Would totally recommend to anyone. Perfect Happy Hour spot!!! ? ?“
“Plnt Burger is absolutely amazing my new favorite place to eat. There chicken sandwich and nuggets reminded me so much like chick fila. Everything tasted very clean and so fresh. Quality of the food is 10/10 and they have a good variety of sauces all are delicious. I highly recommend.“
“I've been to this place a couple of times and any other day, this would be a 4 star, mainly due to service hiccups but I can't in good conscience do it with this trip. I came up here to get breakfast and there was no difficulty getting my order done, the place was very clean and the food was delightful. I heavily recommended the Frostyccino. Doesn't matter what flavor, either one will knock your socks off. I say I got lucky and came at a good time but it shows this place has potential to be almost perfect when it wants to be.“
