The food came out super fast! Just a heads up, it’s a good idea to make a reservation. The only thing we wished for was a side dish choice with the chicken, potatoes, and veggies would have been a step up rather than French fries. But the spinach ravioli was amazing! It had such great flavors and a light, zesty lemon taste. They also have an oyster bar.

Popped in for my birthday lunch. Marvelous swanky bustling atmosphere- exquisite old world ambience - very succulent tender escargots in garlic butter- a smart lamb sandwich- my friend had a very tender tasty chicken breast. Cheers to the Maitre’d on March 18 who came over to enquire how everything was going - and on learning I was celebrating my birthday offered us champagne….that was so darling- thank you!!!! Then for dessert we had a pear flan with pear sorbet - and creme brûlée- my dessert appeared with the perfunctory single birthday candle! We had a marvelous experience- the service was quick and our server was especially attentive. Beautiful atmosphere for any occasion - from a quick bite solo - or the entire family!

I’ve always wanted to try Balthazar, and the perfect excuse finally came when I was looking for a French spot open for lunch on a Monday to celebrate a friend’s birthday. I was honestly surprised; the outside doesn’t do it justice. The interior is stunning, warm, elegant, and full of that classic Parisian charm. It feels way fancier than you’d expect from the street. The menu leans a little pricey, especially compared to other well-known French spots in the city, but some items stood out. The foie gras appetizer was divine and took me right back to Paris in the best way. And the bread selection? Incredible. Next time I’m in SoHo, I might swing by for some sourdough. It was that good. Overall, it’s a lovely spot for a special lunch, and I’m glad we finally made it there.

Balthazar was absolutely amazing. The space is stunning—beautifully designed and surprisingly spacious. From the moment I walked in, the staff were incredibly welcoming and warm. One thoughtful touch that really stood out: they offer a glass of champagne to solo diners, which I thought was the most adorable and classy gesture. As for the food—everything was phenomenal. I started with the seafood ceviche, which was fresh and perfectly balanced. The steak frites were cooked to perfection, with a rich, flavorful sauce and crispy fries. I also had a side of spinach that was buttery and delicious, and ended the meal with their toffee pudding—sweet, decadent, and totally worth it. I paired everything with a cocktail, and every single bite and sip was amazing. Highly recommend this place whether you’re dining with others or treating yourself. It’s a full experience, not just a meal.

An exceptional experience that rivals the best Parisian brasseries — Balthazar masterfully captures both the atmosphere and the flavors. The wine list is impressively extensive, and the French specialties, though slightly on the pricier side, justify it with near-gastronomic twists. The desserts, sourced from the bakery-pastry, are outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant in the heart of Soho.

Seafood excellent. Ambience perfect. Classic vibe. Everything was made to perfection Had a bourbon cocktail, which was on point. Wine selection was impeccable. Sushi was made fresh right in front of our table. Cheesecake was fresh just like the seafood

Sunday brunch idea- skip the typical cafes and come here! I love when I can get a lobster roll and sushi. My friends and I got brunch here and what I loved is that Lure offers breakfast foods like omelettes but also sushi, lobster rolls and main dishes. Our waiter was so cute and sweet bringing us crab rolls as compliments from the chef. So far this is one of my top seafood and sushi spots for taste, options, and service. I’ll be back & thanks Lure!

This restaurant has been on my "list" for a while. We finally made it back to NYC, and they did not disappoint. The service was on point. The seafood was fresh. The atmosphere had just the perfect amount of volume.
David Kwok - a month ago

Great place, we were walking down the street and got caught with the view of the low windows into the restaurant, and we decided to book a table. We had good time, excellent food, they have also vegetarian option, we took the ravioli. Recommend on sea food if you're there, and we also tried one of the sushi rolls which was good as well. Would recommend if you are in the SoHo area and love seafood to try it out.

This photo was taken at our last visit, in July. My husband and daughter had dined here for lunch on a couple of occasions and this was our first time for dinner, all four of us. It’s nestled in one of my favorite parts of town, and there’s something about the busy-ness of the place when it’s packed. Everyone there seemed to enjoy themselves, great food, good drinks, great service! We celebrated our daughter’s birthday this day. She didn’t want us to tell anyone so we kept it mum, but after several visits we can say it’s a great place to eat. Love the atmosphere, too.

Update: Julio, thanks for taking the time to write me back. I now appreciate the complexity that goes into running a restaurant with fantastic food, great value, huge demand, and limited seating. I have revised my review to 5 stars. Thank you Good spot in the heart of downtown. Wish they weren't so crazy about the reservation system. It seems the only way to get a table is to show up and get on the list, then wait 30 mins. The irony of it all is that there are always a ton of tables empty inside. Such is the allure, seems they are just trying to make people wait to increase anticipation. They also wouldn't switch our table as we were right under the AC - they claimed they had "another reservation" but I thought they don't take reservations? Strange. That all said, the food is excellent. Pizza is perfect. Very well priced.
Hal Doueck - 2 months ago

We give Rubirosa a solid 4 stars. We wanted to like it more, but thought the pizza was just alright compared to others. But that might be on us because we couldn’t have the popular tie dye pie. The Wild Mushroom special was great, the Hot Honey (without pork) was ok. Garlic knots were perfect. Service is okay. It’s a nice vibe, it’s loud though if you’re looking for a conversation.

Located on Nolita, Rubirosa has developed into a much loved Italian restaurant known for their pizza. Wafer thin crusts make it tasty to eat. Beverly and I had lunch here recently for yet another birthday celebration. We had one pizza. One half was the Arugula with tomato sauce, red onion, parmigiana and balsamic and the other half was the “Tie Dye” with a topping of vodka, tomatoes, mozzarella and pesto. We shared a arugula salad anointed with a refredhing lemon vinaigrette that was quite large. The arrival of the pizza was heralded with joy! We ate well and the one slice left I took home. Star, our server, gave me a cookie lit with a candle as we skipped dessert being too full. One can get a reservation on Resy for Rubirosa but as it has become so popular it is at times difficult to snag a reservation. I have been having pizza here for decades and in those days walking in to eat was easy. Aurpita and Michelle, the two charming hostesses, made us feel welcome and gave me hope that I would be able to enjoy lunch here once again.

OMG, the food here was amazing! We came across this place by accident — we couldn’t find anything interesting in the main part of Little Italy, and this spot caught our eye on the map. I'm so glad we decided to check it out. The drinks were great and strong, the pizza was superb, and the Cacio e Pepe pasta was absolutely delicious! The cheesecake was nice too! The restaurant itself has a lot of character, though it is a bit tight in there...
J K - a month ago

Worth the wait and the slightly cramped space. Everything we ordered here was surprisingly great. The pictures alone look great - but they taste even better than they appear. But the highlight for me was the Tie-Dye Pie. It doesn't make sense how good it is. It is super light and crisp, yet the vodka sauce gives it a richness. It is so well balanced - probably my favorite thin crust pie anywhere.

From the moment we walked in, the staff at Parm made us feel genuinely welcome. Their warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism elevated the entire dining experience. Every course was spot-on — fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. The chicken parm lived up to its reputation, and the sides and desserts were equally memorable. It’s rare to find a spot that nails both hospitality and food quality this well. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a consistently excellent meal in a vibrant, comfortable setting.

We went there today for late lunch after it was recommended to us by a local — their garlic bread with fresh mozzarella was amazing. We also ordered the Spicy Rigatoni and Prawn Pasta and it was very delicious 🤤 would definitely recommend the restaurant to my friends!
Yen Bui - a month ago

Came here on a random Sunday and was lucky to grab a seat. The space is pretty small, with 5-6 tables and the bar area seating. I could see why people wait to get in. The chicken caprese sandwich was fresh, and the rigatoni carbone was delicious. Fair portion and a Sunday lunch for 2 under $50 is always a win. Definitely recommend.
Anthony M - 2 months ago

This location is filled with the greatest staff especially shout out to Rich. Great atmosphere and food never disappoints. The rigatoni Carbone with chicken cutlets and ricotta cheese was 10/10 and the penne scampi was also very delicious
william moon - a month ago

Small spot with a few tables in the back and a bar to sit at up front. We ordered the rigatoni Carbone and chicken parm, both were great portion sizes (we both had leftovers) we also ordered the “famous” garlic bread. Flavor was great, chicken wasn’t too thin or over breaded. Rigatoni was tasty without being too spicy. The garlic bread was our least favorite, $8 for 1 sesame hoagie cut in half and we honestly couldn’t taste any garlic.

it was nice. super cute. got french toast and yes a few parts were undercooked but other than that it was good. nice thick bread and crispy on the outside. the maple butter tasted a little freezer burnt and was a tiny amount. the berry sauce was mostly just a thin sugar syrup with barely any berry. the mint was just a garnish. so yeah it was good but probably won't be back just because it was just good, not great.

Been to other The Grey Dog locations, first time at this one and did not disappoint! It was so good, we ordered our food and within 12 min everything was at the table. Loved it! The sweet potato fries were so delish. Orange juice is always fresh and tasty.
Patricia Doña - 4 weeks ago

Sunday lunch and the place was packed. We had reservations and sat in the back. The space was cozy and fun. Our group of seven really enjoyed the upbeat playlist. Our server was attentive, patient and friendly. The group seemed to enjoy their food. I can only comment on my burger and sweet potato fries. It was fine but nothing memorable. The patty was on the smaller than most size. I’ll try something else next time.

We ordered omelets and Dog’s breakfast. Everything was great and delicious. The portions were gigantic, really filling. Decorations and atmosphere were amazing. Also definitely recommend the hot chocolate.

Best brunch in NYC! prices are reachable and location is very convenient. I ordered avacado toast and my friend ordered French toast. So delicious, portions are big. I love decoration and music is so good, too. Employees are very friendly. Great start for saturday morning.

Really cool place - if you didn’t know about it, you’d probably walk straight past it. The front looks like a very small ‘hole in the wall’ eatery but once you’re in, they direct you downstairs, through the kitchen, into the restaurant. Nice bar area, nice ambiance. A bit dark inside and loud music, tables quite close together, but good food and great service. Definitely worth a visit.

stumbled upon La Esquina Brasserie entirely by accident, walking along Lafayette Street in New York, but what a find it turned out to be! A tour guide had mentioned it, but discovering it on my own made it feel like a hidden gem. The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful. You head down the steps, and it’s like stepping into a secret speakeasy. The lighting was just right, creating a warm and inviting vibe. The barmen were fantastic—friendly, professional, and really added to the experience. The food was another highlight. Their tacos and other dishes were delicious, and the drinks paired perfectly. What surprised me most was how reasonably priced everything was; it felt like a luxury experience without breaking the bank. The crowd there was equally wonderful—friendly, relaxed, and lovely to chat with. It added to the charm of the place. I’d recommend La Esquina Brasserie to anyone looking for a unique and memorable spot in New York. It’s more than a meal—it’s an experience you won’t forget.
Gilbert Carstens - 6 months ago

You have to try this place! you walk up to a very unassuming deli-like restaurant and note that you have a reservation for La Esquina - the place was empty - no tables, nothing. The host radios to somebody else that hes sending a party of 2 down. Then a hidden door in the wall opens and we are led to the basement of this building which is likely 100 years old - Very cool! - food was great and service was great too! Neat place!
A K - 5 months ago

I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the underground speakeasy restaurant La Esquina. Reservation is required to access this one via a guarded door leading to the underground scene with cramped but very lively bar, restaurant and dj scene! Food is generally very good but nothing that particularly stands out as deserving five stars.
Eric D - 7 months ago

It’s a cute little restaurant. The margaritas were good, but the food was not great. If you’re looking for a spot to grab a quick drink, I would recommend it, but I would grab dinner somewhere else. Service was also not up to par.

I can’t really hate on this place too much because the food is actually good. The only reason why people feel indifferent is because it’s a bit pricy for what it is and feels like a gentrification indicator for a neighborhood. That aside, the tacos are quite delicious. The Fish Tacos would be my recommendation. The Al Pastor was good, but you can find better al pastor in NYC. The Chips and Guacamole are good. You can find their branded chips in Whole Foods for about $7. They do taste very, very good though. Now, not gonna lie, the rice and beans are incredible here. Perfectly salted and flavored. Do not miss ordering these, it’s the hallmark of a good Mexican restaurant.
Patrick No - 2 months ago

Great value for money. Baja Crispy Fish & Sinaloa Shrimp are our favorites. Really friendly staff. Definitely a recommendation when in the area!

excellent tacos for the US, totally worth it. flavor is rich, not blend, spices are present and tortillas as fresh. I'm coming back :)
Marco Gomes - 3 weeks ago

Tacombi offers an authentic Mexican dining experience with a vibrant atmosphere and a menu that delights the senses. The tacos are flavorful and the guacamole is fresh, making it a must-visit spot for Mexican cuisine enthusiasts. A highlight of our visit was sharing a pitcher of their classic margarita, which was both refreshing and generously portioned.

Decent but pricey tacos. Everything was fresh. Great space for the location. They allow non service dogs in the dining area. Not very considerate to people with allergies.

I came here with some friends on a Wednesday and it was a great experience. The menu selection is limited and we ordered a bottle of sancere which was quite nice. I definitely recommend the zucchini chips.

My friends and I had a lovely time this Wednesday evening. We ordered a bottled of Sancerre and a delicious cheese platter. The vibes were fun, music was great, loud enough to still enjoy a conversation.

4.5 🌟 Came here after 11pm and probably had the best seat in the house; tucked in the back left a perfect table for two. Our server was friendly and helpful in suggestions. The bone marrow was a delicious and fatty starter, although it’s always a toss up with how much you’ll get. And the burger was great to split. Unfortunately they were already out of the apple strudel, but it sounded great.
Aja Brandman - 5 months ago

You kinda pay for the vibes. The staff is amazing and unbelievably kind (maybe that’s just a Latino thing). Food was mid tho? And overpriced, but it’s soho, so MY BAD for wanting affordable food lol! My family is Latino and maybe we just don’t like this type of food but like, there was tinyyyy portions. Latte was fire 🥹🥲 and I forgot to take a pic of the food!

Visited to try fondue with my French friend. First time trying fondue for me. Even though I’m not really a cheese person, I really enjoyed the cheese of their classic fondue cause it had that slightly bitter and sour taste in it, which allowed me to not feel too greasy with having the cheese over and over again. In other words, the taste balance of the cheese itself was pretty amazing. However, the bread that came along was so dry and lacked any texture into it, so dipping it into the cheese didn’t necessarily made any synergy, so too bad. They also provided fruits like apple/pear/grape and those sweet flavors went very ugly and weird when dipped into the cheese. My friend said he never saw fruits coming in as part of fondue during his entire life, so I guess it’s not a usual thing?

I decided to explore all the legendary desserts in New York — after all, I have a sweet tooth, and where better to indulge than NYC? Eileen’s Cheesecake shows up on every list — you simply can’t ignore it if you’re researching the city’s best cheesecakes. It’s a small spot with a charming blue-and-white facade. Inside, it smells a bit like cleaning supplies (they do keep it very clean), with one mirrored wall and another covered in awards and articles. Even though it was closing in less than 30 minutes, the display case was still almost full. Their cheesecakes come in perfectly round shapes, with a flavor for every mood. We tried two: the Original and the Salted Caramel. I was worried about the overly sweet American flavors — but that wasn’t the case here at all! The flavors were well-balanced, and that made the experience even more delightful.
Kristina Zhegunova - 2 weeks ago

This was some of the best cheesecake's I've had. Super light and fluffy, sweet but not too sweet, and a great variety of flavors. Their raspberry one in particular is an absolute 10/10. I could eat 5 of those everyday(I won't, because I won't live very long if I do). An absolute must visit if you're ever in NYC.

I got the Oreo & Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake. The oreo was really good. Original cheesecake with Oreo crumble. The Chocolate Mousse was a little strong for me. Im assuming dark chocolate which my tastebuds arent ready for yet lol Small little spot. Happy i was in the area!

Heard a lot of positive reviews about this place had to give it a try, especially for my daughter who has an elephant sized sweet tooth😉. This place does live up to the hype. It’s a very small shop, friendly service, no place to sit, however there is a standing bar table where you can stand and savor your cheese cakes. I tried the coconut and pineapple both were awesome. Will I go out of the way to try them - No ! I will give them a try if I am in the area and would like to have a bite size dessert.
Sachin Sawant - 3 months ago

I guess I had set my expectations too high. I was a little disappointed. The cheese taste was nice and fresh. The portion was enough. However, it was too sweet. The sauce used on top of the strawberry one tasted artificial. It was ruining the integrity. The parts without the sauce were better. In general, I found both of them to be sugary.

Wanted to come here after the hype around the restaurant. Thought it was going to be like every other American/Italian restaurant but NO! The food is absolutely amazing. The pasta tasted fresh and the cheeseburger was cooked really well too. I also got a strawberry smoothie on the side and that was really refreshing. I recommend this spot if you are looking for a cute little date spot!

Fine experience here the atmosphere is nice, the food was good with the exception of overcooked poached eggs and hashbrowns. The breakfast sandwich was very good. I would recommend this place it’s very nice. The food is simple and should be cooked correctly. Reasonable prices and good coffee.

Pretty good! Not sure it's 100% worth the hype and long wait (over an hour), but we liked what we ordered and the service was good. We ordered the: - SPICY VODKA PASTA canestri, vodka sauce, parmesan, basil, chives (best item we ordered) - RUBY'S RAGU slow braised beef short rib, pappardelle, pecorino, burrata - FRIED CHICKEN BURGER crispy buttermilk fried chicken, pickles, coleslaw & spicy mayo on a sesame bun - Spiked hot chocolate Would go again, but definitely with a reservation next time!

The spicy rigatoni vodka totally lived up to the hype! It was creamy garlicky and so delicious not too spicy ! It was a hit day and I sat outside and had the best time ! I will be back
Ivy colon - a month ago

I liked this place but it didn't seem that it lived up to the viral hype. The pancakes were not as great as I thought. They were good! But I've had better. The menu options seemed a little generic. But it is a decent casual spot for American dining. I got the Big Breakfast. It was like a higher end English breakfast. I have had English breakfasts in London and this was actually better. We sat outside during winter and it was crowded inside. Not ideal but I don't blame the restaurant for that. Wait staff was very nice. I would come here again but I wouldn't HAVE to come here again. But definitely better than other options you could do. Oh and we came without a reservation on Black Friday and waited about 30 minutes. Not bad for a popular place though.
