My husband and I took a spontaneous trip to New York with no plans as to where to eat, what we would do, etc, and we landed here for dinner and boy did we luck out! The food was incredible, we had the calamari, arancini, and their potato chips with blue cheese fondue, all of which were spectacular! We had the pleasure of having Justin R as our server, he was fantastic and recommended a wonderful cocktail, the Cucumber Loco (tequila drink). Finally, we happened to get a chance to try the apple tart for dessert and wow! I am not normally a dessert person but this was fantastic. Hands down we would come back again next time we visit the city. The restaurant, the food, the staff and the atmosphere were all amazing!

What a great dining experience on our last night of vacation in NYC! We went in just before 5pm on a Sunday. It looked super busy, so we weren't sure if we would get in, but we were seated right away. Our waiter, Travis, was fantastic! So friendly and attentive. Actually, the entire staff was attentive! When our water bottle was empty, it was immediately refilled. Travis let us know when our food order was put in with the kitchen, and we didn't wait long at all. Go on Sunday and get the chicken parm special! You will not regret it! It tasted amazing, was cooked perfectly, and was absolutely worth the 5-Star review. I highly recommend!!

Thorough enjoyed our meals and the busy vibe at The Smith. Conveniently located directly across the street from Lincoln Center and The Metropolitan Opera, it was the perfect spot to hit before our concert. The wait staff were superb, The short rib pasta, the chicken milanese, and sticky toffee pudding were excellent. Nice drink menu and wine list as well. Can't wait to go back! Make a reservation!

This restaurant, located right in front of Lincoln Center, is always busy with lots of customers. The food is reasonably good, and the atmosphere is pleasant enough. I had the chance to experience their Thanksgiving Day menu. While the price was higher due to the special occasion, every dish was delicious and perfectly suited for the holiday. I visited with a guest, and it felt like a great choice to provide a memorable dining experience.

On another beautiful evening in NYC we decided to dine outside at The Smith. It was a great choice as we were treated so well and enjoyed excellent food. We started with two wonderful appetizers the roasted tomato soup and black truffle arancini. We then moved on to the steak and The Smith Burger. Both were prepared to our liking and the French fries and roasted squash sides were satisfying. We finished with the very tasty sticky toffee pudding and apple tart. Yes it was a good night at The Smith.

I’ve been coming to P.J. Clarke’s for nearly 10 years, and it’s always a place I look forward to returning to. The level of personalized service is rare to find in New York City, and it’s one of the main reasons I keep coming back—even though I’ve since moved out of the area. Christian always greets me by name and remembers my drink order, no matter how much time has passed. His hospitality makes this spot feel like a true neighborhood gem. The food is fantastic, the hosts are always welcoming and the staff is always friendly. It’s become my go-to, and I’m always appreciative of the consistent service that makes it feel like home every time I visit.

My friends and I had such a fun time here!! The service was great, our server was so fun and easy to talk to- he joined in our conversations a few times and we all had such a great laugh. The food was also so amazing!! Highly recommend this place for a good dinner and yummy dessert.

Perfect spot to grab food before or after a show at lincoln center. Our waiter, Wilson was a great host. I enjoyed the oysters, sliders, and their aperol spritz with grapefruit.

We stopped in 1/4/25 in the afternoon and had the most wonderful server, Christian. We ordered a few drinks after checking in at the Empire and had a wonderful time. He was very attentive. The shamrock on top of the foam on the Guinness was a beautiful and artistic touch. We appreciated the atmosphere and hospitality immensely. We went back the next morning for a drink before heading into another part of the city and to our surprise and delight, we had the same bartender/server Christian !!! He remembered EXACTLY how I liked my martini from the day before and I'm sure he sees a lot of different faces coming into the city. I thought that was incredible. It was so good, I convinced my fiancée to stay for brunch and I was so happy we did !!! Christian was very attentive, friendly and his attention to detail was impressive. Impeccable service !!! We had a burger and truffle fries, half dozen oysters and a few drinks. We've been quite a few nice places and are not easily impressed. This place is impressive for a quick Gastro Pub. Food was outstanding and the blue cheese stuffed olives in the Bloody Mary are to DIE FOR XOXO Christian, God bless you and your wife :-) Love Jeff Gyarmati & Betsy Yaccarino

Stopped in here for a burger and I ordered the Cadillac burger. It was ok it was just a fancy name for what really is just a bacon cheese burger that you can get anywhere. My waitress was very attentive and friendly and the atmosphere of the place was very old school

Near Lincoln Center & Fordham University.....Rosa Mexicano is a delight. Drinks are amazing. The food is yummy. The service is great. The space is HUGE !!! I love the ambiance here..... good for catching up with friends, good for happy hour with co workers n a good date night spot for couples. If u have a huge party..... the space is endless upstairs. My only compliant is for a place so big.... a bathroom should be downstairs as well as upstairs. But I will definitely be back !!

My recent visit to Rosa Mexicano was pretty cool. I was on a solo date at Lincoln Center, and from the time I purchased my ticket for the show, I made a reservation, for one. Upon arrival, I noticed the bright and welcoming decor, along with the light early evening buzz, it was a little after 4:30pm. Unfortunately, the host didn’t match that energy. The individual was very dry and blah. But I wasn’t going to allow them to dampen my mood. I was seated, then warmly greeted by my server. He brought a bowl of fresh tortilla chips and salsa, both tasty! After a few minutes, the server return for my order. He got all the fine details correct, without writing them down (impressive). In the past I’ve had their popular margaritas, but that day I enjoyed my meal with an individual bottle of Saratoga Sparkling water, with a wedge of lemon and lime. (So satisfying!!) As for my meal, I had roasted mushroom enchiladas, w/ a side Mexican rice and ripe plantain… oh so delicious!!! Overall, I enjoyed my evening at Rosa Mexicano, and will surely go again!

I thought this particular Rosa Mexicano had better food than other locations I've been to in New York City. The interior is beautiful and spacious. The service was good and the drinks and food were delicious. The cocktails were well balanced and strong. I thought the corn was very delicious.

We love this place!! The food is always so delicious and fresh! The service is great and the staff is always very friendly. We love getting the table side hand made guacamole! The chips are tasty as well. We like the enchilada dish. We always find ourselves coming back here! It’s so good!

Great two storied Mexican café and restaurant with outdoor dining options that are available almost year round. Fantastic food selections and cocktails that are surprisingly good but size-wise they may have some wondering [what’s this?]. Overall wonderful combos nevertheless. The outdoor tables are especially nice during the better part of the dryer seasons even in autumn, here in Manhattan. Very sensational location situated directly from the Lincoln Square’s main plaza and the fountain. And within walking distance of the No. 1-subway line entrances a couple of blocks away. A definite stopover before or after the opera begins, or when the concert or film ends to grab a bite and schmoozing with friends or colleagues at a table. Reasonable prices and moderately expensive. Plus some great late after-hours Happy Hours too through the weeknights and weekend vibes. With several locations located across the cityscape for convenient accommodations.

Great food. Loved the French Onion soup and the chicken liver pate. We had the burger and chicken sandwiches. The dark chocolate mouse dessert was the best we ever had! Great service as well.

Bar Boulud, although called a "casual bistro" by Chef Daniel Boulud, feels more like a fine dining spot. The atmosphere is elegant yet lively, with a welcoming vibe that avoids being too formal. Most of the guests are older (like me), but the mood is still relaxed and fun. We visited Bar Boulud before seeing Firebird at the New York City Ballet, which is right next door. It's a great location for those attending events at Lincoln Center, making it perfect for a pre-show meal or a post-performance drink to celebrate. The service here is top-notch—attentive and professional, but not stiff or overbearing. The menu features a variety of pâtés and terrines, along with classic French bistro dishes made with great skill and care. Some of our favorite dishes included: • La Soupe à l'Oignon Gratinée: This French onion soup was incredible. The broth was rich and flavorful, with perfectly caramelized onions, lots of melted Gruyère cheese, and crispy baguette croutons. • Le Steak Frites: This classic dish was done perfectly. The steak was cooked just right, and the fries were crispy on the outside and tender inside. The Bordelaise sauce was a nice touch. • La Salade Niçoise: A fresh, light option to balance the other dishes. The seared tuna was excellent, and the salad had fresh veggies, olives, a perfectly cooked egg, and haricots verts, all tied together with a smooth aïoli. Overall, Bar Boulud is a wonderful place to enjoy a refined meal in a lively, relaxed setting. It's an especially great choice for anyone attending events at Lincoln Center. Be sure to make a reservation.

I can see the charm and the reason why lots of love Bar Boulud. I looked into the reviews before coming here and hoped that it would be just as good as the reviews. Bar Boulud is most likely the best place I could have gone to. Very pretty spot with great prices and excellent options. Very pleasant service with a good ambience. Delicious menu items at good prices, awesome ambience to unwind at. I enjoyed every single thing I have ordered at this place. Every single item that we ordered was incredibly fresh and delicious. Every single item that we have ordered was extra fresh and flavorful. Everybody was extremely friendly. The workers is certainly a highlight of this place because they are always quick, polite, and provide service with a smile! The staff were extremely welcoming, helpful, and really easy to talk to. Bar Boulud: Gotta try it. Love it. Overall terrific experience at Bar Boulud with friendly and accommodating service, will definitely return. So pleased with that place.

I really enjoyed this place. The service and food were exceptional. It's definitely what you would expect from this restaurant. The service was great and the waiter was super attentive. The seafood dishes, paté, and dessert were especially amazing and I would come back just for those. Many guests also ordered the steak and frites so I'm definitely ordering that next time. For dessert, I highly recommend the petit four sampler, you won't be disappointed! Overall, a really great experience and definitely worth the money.

I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. I received tier one service from the time I walked through the door. The food was delicious and extremely flavorful. I strongly suggest the duck. It wasn't over cooked and the sauce it came in took it to the next level. I dined there before I went to the ballet at Lincoln Center, and I will dine there before my next show. I'm looking forward to going back.

Beautiful experience at Lincoln Ristorante. Came here for a dinner with a winemaker, and Lincoln was all too accommodating. Fantastic food, excellent service, and a warm, elegant atmosphere. Highly recommend the Rigatoni Amatriciana and the sunchokes starter. House bread excellent too! My only complaint is servers were removing plates before everyone at the table had finished their course, which felt a bit rushed / unprofessional. Still, everyone was kind, efficient, and attentive -- we had a wonderful experience overall.
Ethan Fixell - 2 months ago

We had a lovely experience at Lincoln Ristorante. The service was excellent—attentive and friendly without being overbearing. The dining room itself is absolutely beautiful, offering a sophisticated yet comfortable atmosphere. We started with the Pizza Roman, which had a deliciously crisp and flavorful bread base, and a side of olives that were perfectly briny. The roast chicken was juicy and well-seasoned, and the meatballs were rich and satisfying. For drinks, we enjoyed an espresso martini and a glass of Chardonnay—both great pours. Dessert was a decadent chocolate tortino, which was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. We did notice a charge for a tea refill, which I think is a bit tacky when you’re already spending so much on dinner. Still, overall it was a great night, and we’d definitely consider returning

Just had the most amazing Italian dinner at Lincoln Ristorante at Lincoln Center, a🍝✨ This isn’t just a place to eat—it’s an experience that blends NYC’s rich cultural vibes with incredible cuisine. All the dishes are amazing. The spaghetti? Perfectly crafted and bursting with flavor. The branzino? Cooked to absolute perfection. And the ambiance—floor-to-ceiling windows, an open kitchen, and a chic, modern vibe that takes dining to another level. If you're searching for an upscale spot with stunning interiors, a glass-walled dining room, and breathtaking city views, this is it. Trust me, Lincoln Ristorante is a true gem. 🌟 Featured ⤵️ 🔸Beef crudo 🔸Fritto misto di Mare 🔸Spaghetti alla vongole 🔸Branzino 🔸Aperoless spritz 🔸Sweet bites

Went back recently and everything was much improved. We asked for low/no salt and the food tasted SO much better. The romaine salad was extremely skimpy, but the lasagne and branzino were exquisite. Service was excellent as well. So upping it to 4 stars. Prior review: Not quite as good as it should be given the prices but the perfect pre-opera location. Himachi was incredibly skimpy but tasty. Salad was very good but not super fresh. Excellent service and atmosphere. It’s tough to find a good place near Lincoln Center…. Recent visit the food was incredibly oversalted so bad got salt shock and had to leave theater at intermission. The waiter did not know what al dente meant (and guessed wrong). But worst was overhearing some angry waiter (or bartender!) say “damn customers” loud enough we could hear. Won’t be back. Came back a year later - the pastas were excellent and so was the dessert. The restaurant did a shockingly bad no-no though - gave us a bill, and then we give them the card and when they give it back to us to sign they add a glass of wine -?! Cost them a star….

Excellent presentation and execution in all the food. The baked goods were probably my favorite items and the cured salmon, which tasted heavenly. Surprisingly at the other end the barbecue meat tasted bland despite being cooked to perfect tenderness. It was hard to resist ordering the delicious looking orders for the table, but the prix fixe was plenty of food, even slightly too much. The service was good, friendly, though it seemed too busy at times.

We dined here during restaurant week. The restaurant features an open dining room with a bar and an open kitchen. Great airy atmosphere. The service was outstanding! We had the restaurant week 3-course menu and it was one of the most delicious three course meals that we had in a long time. Our party had one person with special dietary needs and they accommodated this so well. We can’t wait to come back and taste options from the regular menu!

What a lovely place! Open dining room with a bar and an open kitchen. No kitchen smells and smoke. The service is outstanding from the hostess, to the sommelier, our waitress (you can’t even call it that more like the person that makes sure you have a great evening) and other staff that help make our visit pleasant. We ate the pre theater meal and there is something for every taste. Everyone knew I have food allergies and paid attention to avoid those foods. A most delicious three course meal that left nothing to be desired. We’ll done!

Dined at Boulud Sud prior to a show at Lincoln Center. The bread, lemon saffron pasta and sorbets are excellent. I am familiar with the flavor profile of Tagine chicken and other than the skin not being crisp there was nothing truly wrong about it. I just would not order it again. The highlight was the Hawaiian prawn special which was so delicious. The service is outstanding.
Stacey Quandt - a year ago

The front of the house staff were very accommodating with my reservation time request. The young lady waiting for my table was excellent. The staff were very welcoming. Flavors for the food could use some improvement, the Moroccan Chicken was very good but the citrus flavors were too strong for my liking. For dessert I selected the Grapefruit Givré, I enjoyed part of the dessert but not all of them. I regret picking this option, but your experience will vary.

Top tier. As a tourist, I'd heard about the banana pudding plenty of times and was dying to try it. The store is located around lots of other shops and places to see and was just a short walk from Central Park, so it's easy to work a visit into a day filled with other activities, which I like. There was a bit of a line, which is to be expected, but it moved quickly and it gave me time to look at everything else on the menu. I ended up with the large carton of banana pudding and it's what dreams are made of. It was light and fluffy, with fresh bananas and wafer cookies throughout while still having a rich flavor. The banana flavor was fresh throughout, no artificial or overly sweet flavor like some banana-flavored puddings. Definitely worth it.
sienna pinney - 4 weeks ago

We've been there three times. The first we ordered the famous banana pudding, was great. The third time, the pudding was with no pieces of cake and the bananas were black, and the layered cake was just TERRIBLE. Very dry, too sweet and very not fresh. Only the cappuccino was good. In total, the experience you get is of disrespect as a customer.

Very friendly staff Very helpful in giving suggestions if you are a first time visitor. Unfortunately for me, their espresso machine was broken during my visit so I did not get to enjoy a good latte. But the hot chocolate banana pudding and the red velvet with cream cheese icing were heavenly. Good value too!

The best thing about Magnolia Bakery is their Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pudding - It’s an incredibly delicious strawberry pudding with giant chunks of chocolate cake mixed in. The texture is amazing and it’s very tasty. I wish this was more of a regular item. It was goes very well with my latte.

If you're looking for some incredible Italian food, look no further! We went here Monday, for an early dinner before the Opera. We began with a few selections from the well stocked antipasto bar. You can just choose a pre-selected variety, or do what we did, and choose specific dishes. We tried the three for $25 option. We went with the puff pastry vegetable tart, mushroom trifolati, and butternut squash lasagna...we were NOT disappointed! All three were delicious!! For our main entrees, I enjoyed Chicken Milanese Picatta Style, and my boyfriend had the veal cutlet pepperoni parmigiana. Both of our meals were spectacular, and we happily washed our meal down with a terrific bottle of Cabernet! For dessert we had a delicious scoop of vanilla ice cream which I think is the perfect compliment to an expresso martini! I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for some delicious, authentic Italian food!

Cafe Fiorello, conveniently located across from Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, is a well-loved destination for both pre-show and post-opera dining. The restaurant offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it an excellent choice for any occasion. Its lunch prix fixe menu features a thoughtful selection of classic Italian dishes, ensuring a consistently enjoyable dining experience.

I am a fan of this place!! I wish I came for dinner. It seems like an old school Italian place where the food would be spectacular. I came for lunch and didnt get to order much - but I what i did order was very good. The thin crust pizza,🍕 was delish. My daughter said it tastes like butter. The sauce was good, we ordered the pepperoni and loved it very much. Also had a Cesar salad. The croutons must be made in house because they tasted very good and the salad excellent too. Service was very good as well.

We went for early dinner on a Sunday. The food is slightly above average. The ravioli is a must have but dont expect it to taste life changing. The cannoli for sure is very good. I like the pistachio cream one better. Overall it good, but if you've not been here you're not really missing out on anything.

This is my favorite restaurant near Lincoln Center. It’s always packed with stylish locals, mostly seniors, which adds to the charm and trust of the place. While dinner here is great, I had the pleasure of visiting for Sunday lunch with a special guest. As always, everything was delicious—from the fresh oysters and octopus carpaccio to the ravioli, paella, scallops, and dessert. The service was also impeccable. Once again, I was reminded that this is a restaurant that never disappoints, no matter when you visit.

My husband and I had a great dinner at Atlantic Grill! The atmosphere was stylish but still cozy, and the service was super friendly. We shared the Dragon Roll sushi, and it was incredible – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The eel, avocado, and tempura shrimp were the perfect combo, and the sauce added just the right touch of sweetness. We’ll definitely be back for another date night!

Cosy restaurant with beautiful decor. The space is spacious, and the ambiance is nice. However, the food was just okay—nothing special. We started with the Octopus Carpaccio and shishito peppers. The octopus with its combination of lemon, celery, tomato, olives, capers, and pistachio, was light and fresh, but it didn’t wow us. For mains, I had the grilled salmon, which was fine, and my boyfriend had the mushroom risotto, which was also decent. The dessert, however, was delicious and the highlight of the meal. For this price, I can find more flavorful and memorable options elsewhere.

Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Atlantic Grill on the Upper West Side, just steps away from Central Park. This low-key yet elegant spot has an ambiance that's both cozy and inviting, making it the perfect escape from the city's buzz. The restaurant's quiet, intimate atmosphere, frequented by locals, adds to its charm--it's a place where you can truly enjoy a relaxed evening out. The culinary experience was just as impressive as the setting. I started with the octopus carpaccio, which was fresh, tender, and perfectly seasoned, followed by the salmon tartar--light and refreshing, with a beautiful balance of flavors. For mains, I opted for the seafood paella and the shrimp curry. The paella was generously packed with a medley of fresh seafood, and the shrimp curry had just the right amount of spice to leave a memorable kick. If you're looking for a refined yet unpretentious spot for seafood on the Upper West Side, Atlantic Grill is a gem worth visiting. Perfect for an evening with friends or a quiet dinner for two!

A pleasant place with a cozy interior and delicious food. There are a couple of outdoor tables for those who enjoy dining "al fresco". Convenient location if you're planning dinner before the opera or ballet at Lincoln Center, or a stroll through Central Park after Sunday brunch. They have jazz brunches on weekends to set the mood too. I recommend ordering the VITELLO TONNATO as an appetizer. The combination of veal and fish sauce is superb! And the ZABAIONE for dessert will not only please the eye during its preparation but also pamper your taste buds, if you appreciate food presentations. Definitely a place to have saved on your "Places to eat at" list.

We came here for our anniversary dinner, and it was a great choice. The restaurant has a classy yet cozy vibe, with white tablecloths and beautiful murals. For starters, we had the grilled octopus and the pumpkin and black truffle flan—both were super flavorful and paired perfectly with their sauces. For the main course, I had a fish dish cooked in olive oil, white wine, and lemon, served with sautéed spinach—light, perfectly prepared, and so flavorful. The staff carefully deboned and plated it tableside. My partner went for the slow-cooked Ragu Napoletano. I didn’t try it, but he really enjoyed it. Dessert was a cute surprise—our tiramisu had “Happy Anniversary” written in chocolate, a thoughtful detail that made the night feel even more special. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Even the complimentary bread and arancini were a treat. Service was great overall, but there was one odd thing with the wine. We ordered a bottle of white, and instead of opening it at the table and keeping it in an ice bucket nearby, they took it somewhere else. It wasn’t a big deal since they kept our glasses full, but it was just something we hadn’t experienced before. Maybe we should’ve asked to have it kept at the table, but it didn’t really bother us. Other than that, everything was fantastic. The staff was warm and friendly, and our server even took some great photos for us to remember the occasion. We’ll be coming back!

Overall rating: 4.5 Definitely not being the target audience of this place, I’ll try my hardest to keep my review subjective. My friend that I went with has been here a few times, so when I arrived with them - the staff was friendly. They were accommodating & nice from what I remember. This is what we ordered: - Gambero Rosso: 6/5 shrimp carpaccio. So so good. - Sformato di zucca e tartufo nero: 4/5 oof too filling for an appetizer; wish we chose for something lighter - Tavolo Rustica 1/5 wayyy too basic for $42. DO NOT ORDER. - Capesante 4/5 eh nothing special (scallops) - Candele Zucca e salsiccia - 5/5 I thought this was good. But by the time, I ate it. My stomach was already declining. Towards the end of it, I definitely had way too much lactose because my body was feeling it. Thank goodness it was a solo bathroom. Overall, it was nice to see how the other side lives but can’t say the place blew me out of the water that I’m dying to come here again if I was a millionaire.

I am a single woman and I had a reservation and yet when I arrived the hostess offered me a spot at the bar. I declined and I got a table in the back by the bar where people pass to use the toilet as well as employees passing repeatedly. I never saw the pretty paintings on the wall. I wonder when fine restaurants will begin to treat single women diners with the same respect they give to their other customers. I don’t care that my tab will be less and the restaurant shouldn’t either. It should be about providing every person with a lovely experience. Treat your single women customers like a queen, not a pauper. The server pushed me to have an appetizer after I said I would be having a salad as my first course. I don’t want sales as a part of my dining experience. The beet salad was fresh and the earthy beets paired with the frisée and little dollops of cheese and nuts was pleasant. The halibut in the tiny bit of thyme sauce was perfect and the three little carrots were nice but the grilled endive was a huge misstep. The grilled endive was tough and tasted of a grill. No one wants the charcoally grill as a flavor component in their mouths. The server tried to tell me it is a traditional Italian dish and while that it true, it is not true that it is cold and tough and tastes like the grill. It should be tender with a mellow flavor that doesn’t bite your tongue. Needless to say, It didn’t pair well with the rest of the dish. The dish wanted a bit of potato or cauliflower puree. Thank goodness for the few tomatoes on the halibut or it might have been a beautifully cooked piece of fish with no flavors to elevate it. The lemon meringue tart was very nice although there were too many meringues on it making it too sweet. The little dollops of cream on the plate served the lemon curd of the tart much better. My bill was $164.
