Just popped in randomly after having walked by this place for a few years. I have to say, the food is absolutely delicious and even a good value (harder to find these days). They had decent vegan options as well.

Average Chinese restaurant. There could be better options in Manhattan. The squid is not crispy enough. Overall the dishes are spicy enough but not really tasty.

I come to this place pretty often for lunch, they have very good deal for lunch specials. And, tonight I had a great time with my friend. We tried out the new seasonal menu. The crispy squid definitely one of my favorite, it is spicy but not crazy spicy. Strongly recommend this dish especially if you are drinking alcohol. I think it will be a good choice. The milk custard is so creamy, I was told that it’s made out of buffalo milk. Very simple but I am loving this dessert.

I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food is super authentic Chinese, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The fish dish, topped with green onions, was especially delicious – cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The other dishes we tried were tasty, with a nice balance of spices that made everything feel genuine and satisfying. The delivery was quick, and the prices are extremely reasonable, especially for Midtown Manhattan. The staff was friendly and made us feel comfortable from the start. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot for anyone looking for authentic Chinese food without breaking the bank. I’ll definitely be back. Recommend dishes: 葱花鱼，干锅牛蛙，爆炒腰花

My partner and I came for Valentine’s Day and had an AMAZING time. We are from out of town & looking for food while shopping and this was the perfect place. Our favorite part was the service, a 10000/10. The food was also amazing, and they made their Singapore noodles less spicy for my partner upon request. I would highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Keen’s Steakhouse, and it absolutely lived up to its legendary reputation — especially when it came to their famous mutton chop. The chop was cooked to perfection — beautifully seared on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside. The seasoning was spot-on: rich, savory, and expertly balanced to highlight the deep, hearty flavor of the meat. It’s a cut that commands attention, and Keen’s delivers it with confidence and tradition. Service was excellent — attentive without being overbearing. The staff clearly know the menu and the restaurant’s storied history, and it adds to the charm of the whole experience. What really sets Keen’s apart, though, is the atmosphere. The dining rooms are steeped in history, with thousands of antique clay pipes hanging from the ceiling — each one telling a story. You can’t help but pause when you spot the most famous names, like Babe Ruth and Teddy Roosevelt. It’s like dining in a museum of New York’s past. In all, if you’re a fan of classic steakhouses and want a bite of history, Keen’s mutton chop is a must-try. It’s an iconic dish in an iconic setting — and one I’d happily return for.

Getting a reservation at Keens the day before was tough, but we managed to snag a late 8:30 PM slot. We arrived early and had a drink at the bar while we waited. The bar was packed—standing room only, and finding a seat was impossible. Fortunately, they were able to seat us about 30 minutes early, which was a nice surprise. Keens is housed in a historic building with an old-school New York charm. The ceilings were lined with the largest collection of smoking pipes in the world, adding to the restaurant’s unique character. Once seated, the service was quick and efficient. We ordered a mix of classics to share: the famous mutton with mint jelly, the prime porterhouse for two (medium-rare), creamed spinach, mashed potatoes, and grilled seasonal vegetables. Before the food arrived, they brought out a big basket of bread (which we didn’t try) and a plate with huge carrot chunks—oddly cut and hard to eat—along with some pickles and olives. The food itself was incredible. The porterhouse was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and exactly medium-rare. The mutton lived up to its reputation, and all the sides complemented the meal perfectly. Keens is definitely a must-visit for steak lovers, just be prepared for the crowds!

After a long day walking around New York, we hit up the number one place on my food wish list, and it didn't disappoint. You can't come here and not have the mutton chop. Oh my life! It was incredible, truly incredible. My wife had the New York strip, which she could have cut with her spoon in was so soft. Chips and creamed spinach for sides, and we walked out of here so contented. A must try place and worth every cent we spent. A wonderful restaurant with brilliant service and an amazing history.
Pete Jenkins - 3 weeks ago

Stepping into this legendary establishment, around since 1885, feels like walking through a slice of history. But it’s not just the history that draws crowds—it’s the food. The iconic Mutton Chop and Prime Porterhouse have earned rave reviews from countless famous guests over the years. Pair your Mutton Chop with the mint jelly for a truly satisfying meal. And whatever you do, save room for the show-stopping homemade Carrot Cake—it’s a must. With impeccable service and a timeless steakhouse atmosphere, this spot delivers on all accounts! A true classic, and absolutely worth the visit!

What a great legendary and historical restaurant in NYC!! Mutton chop is a MUST TRY! IF you're lucky and your server likes you, you'd get a tour of the restaurant up until the second floor! (Which happened to us and we loved every second of it)

Okay, so the drinks are made well, that's important. The beer is cold and the drinks are strong. The food was effin' delicious. Try the sliders, they will not disappoint. But the crown jewel is the people. Everyone was super sweet. From the bartender to the waitresses, they were the nicest of nice. I would go there again.

We visited restaurant on Sunday. It’s pretty empty which is good for us so we can relax. Food is really good! We absolutely love it. We order dozen of oysters, chicken wings, chicken pot pie, and apple pie ( really recommend; not too sweet, just right amount of sweetness) all were very tasty. Shout out for my 2 lady servers. They are super busy cause they must have covered the whole restaurant just two of them. They were very friendly and service-minded ( Sunday, Aug 25). Would come back again.

Gotta be honest here, the food is just ok, especially for the price. If you are looking for a bite before or after a show at MSG there are better options nearby. Fries were served cold, pretty hard. Drinks and food are a little bland, considering the price of food in this area, you can find better options. What they do offer is a very extensive beer menu and a fun atmosphere.
Steve Ignatious - in the last week

Great spot for a bite before heading to Madison Square Garden. We had the burger and it was really good – just what we needed. The place is lively with a great atmosphere, perfect for getting into the mood before a game or a show. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the area!

Been wanting to come here for a since they moved a couple of years ago. Their old space, now called Chili, has a lot of the same dishes. My favorite there is Mr and Mrs Smith. Curiously named, I thought, until I came to Cafe China and saw the exact same dish called Husband and Wife Special. Instead I ordered the smoked tofu cold dish. Lots of spicy oil and numbing peppercorns. Could use some more peanuts and scallions in the dish but still tasty. The Spicy Fish was fried, and comes with lots of dried red peppers, cilantro and 2 limes. Delicate flavor and lightly fried. The tea program is on point. This oolong tastes like a 2nd batch from a high mountain plantation. Very good

I’ve been coming to Café China for years, and it never disappoints. The food is consistently great. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever ordered something I didn’t like here. The scallion pancakes, in particular, were a standout on my most recent visit — perfectly crispy, flaky, and packed with flavor. Overall, just a reliably great spot that continues to deliver.
Abdullah - 2 weeks ago

Delicious and filling! Would go back. We had a reservation and were promptly seated. Ordering was smooth, drinks were delicious, food flavorful and filling, and service was attentive. Since it’s family style, the split among four people landed us about ~$30-50 before tip. Space is pretty big for the location but you need a reservation for most days since it’s smack middle of midtown. Highly recommend!

Favorite Chinese restaurant by far!! My Chinese friend brought me here for the first time because of its authentic Chinese cuisine. It’s not Americanized if you will. Simple decor, very attentive service and delicious, wide selection menu. While my company enjoyed many meat dishes, I am vegetarian and had plenty of options to select from as well. Definitely recommend. Restaurant has multiple floors, nice bar and clean bathroom.

This was my second visit to Kunjip, once in April and again in June, and I will make this a regular stop when I'm in New York for any reason. The food is spectacular and the ambience is very comfortable and appealing. The only downside is that but times the staff seemed to be completely stressed out, to the extent that I almost felt unwelcome.

Great Korean BBQ. We were group of 4 and shared a fried rice type dish and the platter of meat. They bring out every side imaginable. They cut and cook the meat on stove in front of you. No need to do anything. Service wasn’t amazing but we forgive it with the quality of food.

As a passionate foodie marketer, I always appreciate a restaurant that delivers not just great food but also a strong, authentic identity. 더큰집 does exactly that. The food here is refreshingly balanced—not overly sweet, just clean, well-executed flavors that highlight the essence of Korean cuisine. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared, offering a refined yet comforting experience. The ambiance and service complement the quality of the food, making it a place worth returning to. If you’re looking for a spot that stays true to the heart of Korean flavors without unnecessary frills, this is it. Highly recommend!

Kinda of a family restaurant vibe. 1st floor is chill and bright and second floor is more of a date atmosphere with big party rooms in the back. Food ranges from full ok kbbq to home style dishes. Loved their beef stew! And after wards you get this tasty cinnamon ginger tea.

The service was great and kind, they explained about all the different dishes and how to eat them and were very welcoming. We ordered one of the bbq platers and they brought lots of small side dishes. Everything felt very fresh. It's not fancy by any means but it's a really nice place to eat.

Diolch yn fawr liberty bar. When you see the welsh flag flying high you must seek refuge. What an amazing find. The food was fab, the service was amazing. This bar is a beauty, from the decor to the original flooring, it really is such a beautiful building. Thank you for such a lovely Welcome. Pity there wasn't a Wrexham game on when we came I would have been in my element.

Colby was an absolutely phenomenal host! From the moment we sat down, his energy and professionalism set the tone for a great experience. He was incredibly friendly, upbeat, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a memorable time. We ordered oysters, French fries, and mules—and everything was on point. Colby made excellent recommendations and checked in often without ever being overbearing. You can tell he takes pride in what he does and has a natural talent for hospitality. If you’re lucky enough to have Colby as your server or host, you’re in great hands. His passion, attentiveness, and charisma make all the difference. Wishing him all the best in his career—he’s going places!

My gf and I came here to watch a basketball game. Our server Colby was the best, he was attentive and friendly in a way that felt genuine. The food was upscale pub fare and not overly expensive. The seats and tables were comfortable and the decor is delightfully corny. I usually avoid this area because of the tourists but a group was meeting here and I'll definitely come back

This is the spot for my office. A bar with legit food. Huge portion with a very reasonable price, and very delicious!!! I love their pulled pork nachos. The best. They are always extremely patient with my colleagues who have different kinds of food allergies and restrictions. My husband loved their Cajun burger - it’s ridiculously big with waffle fries. We always go for their happy hour for $10 mules. Perfect spot for lunch or relaxing time after work! The only downside is that they seem always short staffed. Don’t get me wrong - they all work very hard, running around and doing everything. As a result, we do often need to wave our arms hard to get our waitress’s attention.

This showed up on various lists of best Korean spots in the city, with a Michelin Bib Gourmand as well, known for its fresh homemade tofu. And everyone else knows this too, so the waitlist at 6pm on a weekday was already 30 parties deep. Many parties do drop-off and it seemingly counts down faster than expected but we still waited an hour for a table for 3. Would suggest downloading the Minipass app and it seems you can put yourself on the wait-list earlier instead of when you reach the restaurant. The meal came with a starter tofu dish and a variety of banchan, which were all quite good. They do offer refills to the banchan. Service was also very attentive and friendly. We ordered a couple dishes: - Perilla seed tofu stew ($19) - quite unique and tasty, with some little rice balls and potatoes that added a nice texture. Though the overall dish was a lot smaller than I had expected. - Buckwheat soybean noodle ($20) - it was a hot day and thought a cool dish would be nice, but this was pretty underwhelming esp at this price point. - Seafood pancake ($19) - really enjoyed this one, good crispy texture and mix of seafood. Overall, I appreciated the freshness of the tofu but didn't quite live up to the hype and value for me at this price point.

We arrived at the restaurant right at 12 PM when it opened, but it was already full, so we had to join the waitlist. It took about 40 minutes for us to get seated. The service was absolutely amazing—staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We even had our banchan refilled twice. I highly recommend the kimchi banchan—unlike most Korean restaurants that use cabbage, this place uses radish, which makes it much crunchier and more flavorful. Other standout dishes included the beef short ribs, which were incredibly tender and practically fell off the bone. The portions were generous as well. We also tried the buckwheat pancakes—definitely worth a try if you haven’t had them before. They’re not like the usual pancakes you’d expect, but interesting and tasty in their own way. The only reason I’m giving one point off is due to the restaurant’s sanitation score, which is a B.

I went here for lunch around 12:45pm. They told us to expect a 10-15 min wait but it was closer to 35 min. The food was good and the portions were very generous. I liked their homemade tofu. It was a little slow for us to get our check and boxes so we could pack our to-go leftovers. Staff were friendly and could advise which food they preferred.
Jaye Aster Broder - 2 weeks ago

I came here with two other friends for a Saturday dinner and this was one of the best Korean food experiences I’ve ever had. The wait was about 20 minutes. The restaurant was full but staff was attentive. The galbi jjim was the standout dish for me. It was so well seasoned, and the sweet and spicy broth is something I want to go back for already. The other dishes were also excellent and I truly believe you can’t go wrong with ordering anything here. Everything had a home-cooked feel but they were so well made at the same time. Will definitely be coming back with people who like Korean food.

Solid tofu dishes — each of the soup/stews are super unique and worth trying. Highly recommend the tofu flavored rice. Attentive service and solid overall experience. Wait on a weekend evening wasn’t too bad — the waitlist starts long but moves quickly (likely due to cancellations from people deterred by a long estimated wait time).

This restaurant was truly exceptional in every way. I never imagined beet salad could taste this good! The octopus was a bit on the salty side, but it worked well as a bar snack. I had the pig as our main dish—it was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Above all, the service was outstanding and the atmosphere was wonderful. Whether you're catching up with a friend or on a date, this place is just perfect.

My husband surprised me with a birthday celebration @ Ai Fiori. We were here 2 years ago for my birthday and I can definitely say we loved the experience better this time around overall. All dishes from appetizer to dessert was amazing. They can accommodate sharing portions. The servers (especially) Solomon, waiters and the new manager were very warm. Their food is gastronomical. They have an excellent roster of chef this time around that makes mouthwatering dishes! Must try: crab pasta, lobster bisque, duck, halibut, apple dessert and chocolate coffee cake, even their gelato is good! Will definitely be back more often!

I was incredibly impressed by the Michelin stars awarded to this restaurant! My visit was absolutely delightful, thanks to the exceptional service provided by the attentive staff. They went out of their way to make my celebration truly special, surprising me with a scrumptious cake. Along with this thoughtful gesture, I was treated to a meticulously crafted multi-course menu designed to showcase the delicious flavors of the season. It was a truly memorable dining experience that exceeded all my expectations.🫶🏻❤️💕

This is a convenient, grab-and-go Korean eatery where the food is pre-cooked and ready for quick service. It's a great spot to sample a variety of dishes, especially if you're visiting for the first time. The setup is cafeteria-style, with seat-yourself dining. While I believe it's kid-friendly, expect a lively and busy atmosphere.

Very disappointed. Food is stale, cold, simply not tasty. I’m also quite annoyed by the fact they charge you extra, more than the 8% that’s labeled. They literally rounded up the amount that should be charged to your credit card, then refused to give me a to-go bag despite the (illegal) upcharge was much more than 5 cents. Petty and unimpressive place Edit: to the restaurant’s reply - thank you for the reply but the rounding did take place. It was 24.24 but I was charged 24.50. I’ve attached the screenshot of the charge here

Bad The place is over crowded (it’s understandable because this place is popular) and the microwave is located just right on the enter (I want to warm my food but its so uncomfortable to stand where people keep passing by- and next to the trash can) Some food is not worth it (like the zucchini, its soft and cold) Most food is cold, but its hard to reheat for the above reason The queue is long, really really long 😭 Good The price is overall cheap for this area They have sitting place (45mins maximum- but better than none) The food is okay, there are many options to choose at least If you are at the neighborhood, can’t choose what to eat and can’t afford luxury restaurants with tips- its a nice comfy place. But I think its overhyped and the quality does not meet. The owner should do better to handle such large amount of customer like now. I will come back only during week days. I hope they can improve the microwave area 🫤

Little hot food and drink spot, you pick up from what you want along the different selections, pay for it, and there's some high table seating with stools. Tight spots but also a good place to grab a quick snack.

good place for a quick grab if your nearby. food is fresh for the majority and shows timestamps on shelves. however, quality can be inconsistent at times and is usually relatively crowded. ill recommend their kimchi fried rice & spicy fish cake.

I’ve been here several times, and I gotta tell you I love the food. The views are insane, I came today on a Friday afternoon, and they have happy hour, From 430 to 630. My drink actually came with a free personal pie. I would’ve never known that if it wasn’t because of Saleem The Bartender, who was amazing, very friendly, and recommended. The best drink I ever had.

Sincerely, we were just looking for a drink and something to munch before going to the Empire State. What we found was: great service, best Italian food outside Italy and views of the city all in one place. The eggplant parmigiana was simply the best I've ever had apart from home made in an Italian home. The cheese and cold cuts platter was superb. The drinks were very good too. Service excellent. My friend forgot her credit card and the staff was so helpful when we went back to collect it. A hidden gem inside Macy’s.

Good food and the service is excellent! Sadly my Martini tasted like " sour grapefruit" juice.. Not certain how you can mess up a martini!!! Not I'll be back-changing my drink🤮 Plus, the waiters don't come around to see if you require any assistance- which my be good, but I needed a straw and waited a long time to catch someone's attention running by my table.. a I'm usually a good tipper, when it's due- I'll tip, just not as much had they been a little more tentative!! 4 Star, changed to 5 Star-- thanks to manage Chris, after I voice my concerns! Chris was AMAZINGLY THOUGHTFUL of my concern s!!!

Nice space and service. A decent size meal and outstanding quality ! We had the LE COSTINE pork ribs with a cheese risotto (the best of the place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️), TAGLIATA DI MANZO a nice meat sandwich and a pizza! The Stella spritz cocktail wasn’t as good according to the food, but was ok. (Rather don’t ask for it) The view was beautiful!, you eat viewing the Empire State Building 🛕

Brought the family here after a trip to Santaland. Food was good! I wish the portions were a little more but I won’t complain because I want to lose weight before my next trip. I loved the butternut squash pasta…. I should have ordered two to fill me 😂. Love how our seat had a view of the Empire State Building….
