My sister always talk about how good their burgers are, so I finally got the chance to try it and I must say I enjoyed it. Our server was amazing and the atmosphere was clean. The food and drinks were really good.

I have been to this NYC burger restaurant several times and it never disappoints... Amazing burgers, onion rings to die for and crispy crinkle fries. Love the decor and ambience too. I will for sure be back for my burger hit next time I'm in NYC.

Just a 6 star experience. Our server, Andres was the best and most helpful guy. Thanks for the amazing service. The portions were massive and the price was really fine for such amount of food. Bacon was delicious, patty was just as we ordered. Overall great food for a great price.

We have eaten here before. Always great food. My daughter and I need Celiac safe food and it comes out safe (never been sick) and beautifully prepared each time! Andres was our waiter and he was very attentive and took great care of us, double checked the menu for allergy safety, gave us drink suggestions - all around great evening, we will surely be back again!

I went by myself as always. When the host took me to the table there was cockroach on the napkin and she just asked me to wait and took it out in front of me and I ended up getting the same table. Didn’t say nothing but after that the server with the blonde highlights was a bit frustrated already with something else but I enjoyed the food I ordered. The impossible patty was really nice as always.

Cash only historical fish spot with a pretty extensive menu. Really good bites and no frills setting. Got the nova with an everything bagel appetizer as my main and it was honestly the best nova I’ve ever had. Bright, flavorful, but not too fishy. Plenty of cream cheese and extras to dress my bites with. TBH it was so good that it may have ruined all other nova for me. My husband got the scrambled eggs and sturgeon and he loved it too. Perfect amount of saltiness. The everything bagels were also solid. Definitely get the potato pancakes, they’re puffy and crispy with plenty of sour cream and applesauce. It’s pricier than some other spots but for me, the quality of the fish was markedly better which made it worth it to me.

No doubt this is an institution been around since early 1908 and they moved from original Harlem to Upper west. You walk in and it’s just a quintessential hustle bustle NYC fish focused deli. **it’s cash ONLY They feature mainly salted fish from sturgeon to salmon etc.. pair that with a bagel and you are set for a solid breakfast. The potato puffers are good even having come from Germany. They are crisp on the outside golden and softy and doughy with the balanced acidity it needs. As far as value for what it is it’s terrible and priced up there. 2 bagel combos, 1 potato puffer, 2x OJ you’re looking at 109$ without tip.

Cash only on weekends; cards accepted on weekdays. Classic Jewish appetizing shop full of history and delicious bagels! The Nova Scotia salmon was top notch and the latkes were crispy and huge. Service is no frills and mildly abrasive. Prices are steep but where aren’t prices steep in Manhattan?

Amazing smoked fish! Loved the sable. Overall very satisfying breakfast/lunch. I did feel that the bagels could’ve been better, but that could be personal preference. Still a good breakfast

An old New York classic breakfast spot with a variety of breakfast cured fishes, prepared either as a breakfast sandwich, platter, or with eggs. I’d recommend a breakfast sandwich, which is the most economical, and the white fish salad as the fish. There’s often a line to get in, but it moves at a decent speed.

The food was phenomenal! Especially the appetizer! We got babaghanoush with 2 cigars and 2 pitas, and it was mind blowing. The seasoning of the babaghanoush was just perfect. The beef cigars and pitas were also extremely delicious. The outside of the cigars were almost like pastry, a little flaky and mildly crispy. The pita bread was simply excellent. It was freshly baked and steaming hot. The burger was also very delicious, but a bit salty to my taste. The classic rib-eye steak was also well cooked. The meat was very tender and juicy. The grilled vegetables were okay. Good thing the fries were great, too! The service was also very nice. Very laid back and relaxing. Overall, it was a great experience. Can’t wait to come back again!!

My impressions align perfectly with existing positive reviews. Their service philosophy values genuine connections. Their food shows imaginative yet appealing choices. Groups feel comfortable here while enjoying quality cooking. We enjoyed every aspect of this spot.

This place makes food that tastes like it should cost more. To mention initially, the staff shows exceptional care. You'll notice significant savings dining here. All food here demonstrates flavor skill. I'm honestly captivated by this place and will return regularly !

Excellent choice for lunch or dinner. Steak was made to perfection. Chicken soup was heavenly. Will definitely be back and recommend!!

Delicious food, and my steak was cooked perfectly! However, our friends order was wrong, and by the time we all finished our food, she then got her correct order and had to eat alone. It was disappointing. Other than that it was a nice dining experience

Alex, our server is 10/10 awesome! Very good service. Made sure we got our water pitchers refilled and bread basket full! The food was amazing, wished we had more stomach space to order more. We had a very special request for him to help decorate our friend's birthday cake with decorations we brought. Without any instructions or context he and the staff delivered!!! They helped make our friend's special day even better and I am truly thankful to Carmine's staff and Alex. Im posting a picture of how seriously they took our request 🤣 will definitely come back.

Always been one of my favorite places to eat amazing family size portions food has tasted consistently the same for the last 20 years highly recommended for anybody traveling to the upper west side of Manhattan. Highly recommend the Caesar salad baked clams and porterhouse contadena

Maybe my favorite Italian restaurant in the City. The atmosphere reminds me of a New York City apartment in the 30s or 40s of an Italian immigrant family, the aesthetic goes perfectly with the family style food service. The family style service goes down perfectly when you come as a group. This time, I came with 2 other people. We order their Caesar Salad, Garlic Bread (half with parmigiana cheese), and Chicken Parmigiana with Penne. I have to give it up to Carmine’s they have one of the best Caesar Salad I have ever tasted. The garlic bread is always fresh and this was the first time I tried it with cheese, which was a nice touch. Next up was the Chicken Parm with Penne which was so tasty and flavorful. Lastly we grabbed homemade cannolis for dessert, with coffee. Which was a great way to cap off an amazing meal and like always when I come here we all left with doggy bags because we were not able to finish all the food they served us.

I have an amazing experience at Carmine's in New York. My cousin introduced me to this restaurant. Atmosphere, excellent Waiter, friendly staff. The food was out of this world. You only need to order one entree you could feed at least three people I have leftovers for two days. I would gladly come back to this restaurant anytime I'm in New York Highly recommend it

A visit here brings me back to Paris where you can enjoy delicious food and drinks on the sidewalk watching people go about their daily lives. They have a nice menu and assorted drinks as you would expect. The service was very attentive though not intrusive even though the restaurant was busy. If you’re in the neighborhood you should check it out.

We had a small brunch type of situation when visiting NY. The server and staff were the highlight. Every one was so sweet and courteous, a hands off to the entire staff at this place. The food was also pretty good. Definitely worth a visit.
Aneesh Nambiar - 2 months ago

The escargot and onion soup were quite good—definitely the highlights. The rest of the brunch menu was just okay. I ordered the ‘Friggin Delicious’ cocktail, intrigued by the name and the unique ingredients, but it ended up tasting like a standard Moscow Mule, hence a little disappointment for $18+tax.

I accidentally ordered to the wrong Ollie’s location (completely my fault, idk how it happened as I’ve ordered from here 100 times). They called the other location and had them come deliver it at no extra charge. Absolutely above and beyond of them to do; great food and great service!!!

Food was Okay but when I ordered the lunch “special” for 17 bucks, I expected more than 4 very small pieces of meat 4 mediocre pieces of broccoli. It seems We’re being charged for their very high rent but still leaving there very hungry. The lunch special isn’t very special, it’s less than an appetizers worth of food and doesn’t come with anything that a typical special would come with. No egg roll, no pork fried rice, no drink….but you are asked to leave a review for a free egg roll.

Good, solid choice for dim sum on the UWS. The new tofu skin dumplings were really good and a great menu addition. Steamed fresh was a nice touch, so plan on 15 mins before they arrive.

Came to this hidden gem on the recommendation while we were celebrating a milestone birthday. The food is amazing, the staff are friendly, and Stefan is amazing. We ordered the fried artichokes, meatballs and black bass special. The tiramisu was delicious and they sang Happy Birthday to me. Highly recommend!!

The pizza is really yummy! The salad tastes better with vinegar. The most recommended dishes are fried squid and shrimp. David's service is excellent!

A beautiful spot for a rainy day lunch. Loved the ambiance of the restaurant, and the vibes. Staff was really friendly and attentive. Food was delicious, flavorful, and well portioned for the cost. Just a reminder, cash only. Will definitely come back.

Sunday lunch walk-in and we were seated right away. Place wasn't busy at 1 pm and plenty of tables were open. We got a perfect outdoor seat and placed our order for some delicious salads. They had a brunch menu and the regular menu, which is where we ordered from. Order included Meddo Salad ($13.75), Yesil Salad ($13.75) with Salmon ($10), and Shepherd Salad ($14.75) - which was absolutely delicious. Food took a while to arrive - over 25 mins, but the outdoor seating a nice breeze going on! Service can be a little quicker, but food was fantastic. Will visit again!

I went here for a lunch with coworkers and it was absolutely delicious. The service was cordial, and attentive. I drink a lot of water and they noticed and filled me up twice, bless them. The atmosphere was casual but not too casual. Two of us were vegetarian and we managed to find good options on the menu easily. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, but because of the cold weather we chose to sit indoors. The brick oven is phenomenal. Everything tasted amazing and was served in perfect proportions, perfectly seasoned, at the perfect temperature. I felt like the prices were reasonable. I would wholeheartedly recommend for a casual date night or a work lunch, or for a lunch with friends.

Nice little diner at a walking distance from our place and we could get a seat within 5 mins on a Saturday afternoon for 3 of us. Service is typical diner style, quick and effective and our order included a Bloody Mary and a Mimosa, both pretty decent. I got the Veggie Deluxe Burger ($15) and the first few bites felt really decent, but then the burger patties felt really dry. Food overall felt pretty substandard, including the pancakes we ordered for our little one. Service was quick though and noise levels were on the average end. Comfortable booth seating, and fairly huge portions. Might visit again!
Ameya Bhakay - 10 months ago

We had a yummy meal here on a Wednesday for lunch. They were just busy enough to feel lively and the waitstaff was attentive but not hovering. I had the Mexican bowl which was surprisingly tasty, and we also got pancakes and chicken fingers and fries. Everyone was full and happy!

I live 1 block away & get to enjoy Indian Tanpura's food whenever I want! Pictured are the vegetable samosas (2 per order), Saag Paneer, garlic naan & aloo paratha, and Chicken Kashmir. Every time we order we get the samosa: absolutely excellent with the sauces & garlic. Saag Paneer is a standout too, that's part of most of our orders. We've tried almost all of the curried dishes, and others like Rogan Josh, lamb moglai and have enjoyed them all. Proceed with caution on the vindaloo, one of the spiciest I've had! The staff is warm & welcoming, vibe inside is calm & classic. Highly recommend!

Loved this place. I have been on the hunt to find my go to Indian spot and this has taken the place… for now at least haha. The service was exceptional, I was greeted nicely and offered a seat to wait for my pick up order. The dishes provided were rich and full of flavor while keeping with traditions. The sauces were flavorful and complex enhancing each bite.

This fantastic restaurant was recommended to us by a local in a nearby coffee shop. We were the only ones in the restaurant but we had a great time. The papadam that was served before the meal came with three chutneys, the onion was my favorite. For entrees we got the chicken tikka masala and the lamb korai which is a specialty of theirs. Both dishes were extremely flavorful and left us wanting more. The garlic naan that we ordered was the best we have ever had, baked perfectly and seasoned well. Overall we had one of our best meals in New York here and would recommend it to anyone looking for great Indian in the area.
Charles Vega - 9 months ago

The area needed a spot like this, and now we have it. The people at Indian Tanpura are remarkably kind and provide help with any matter. Delicious offerings. Nice environment. The amount of food per dollar is impressive. All components of the meal impressed.
