We stopped in here for a light snack after a morning full of touring. Loved the whole bank vault vibe. Food was good. We had the duo of tartares and only wished they initially provided more of the crackers -- they gave us more when we asked but three crackers for two full tartares was a little comical. But it was really good, as was the crab roll. Good wine menu as well. Service was good.

Hosted a corporate event here and was generally pleased with the food and the service. A little disappointed that some of the steaks arrived cold but otherwise I would recommend trying this place.

The history of this place is really cool, it was the reason we decided to go there but then we had some wine and appetizers and were pleasantly surprised by the quality. I recommend having a few drinks and appetizers and checking out the really neat history of the building and vault.

This place feels more like an experience than just a restaurant. The first thing that stands out is the interior — it’s bold, detailed, and a little unexpected, almost like stepping into a different era. It immediately sets the tone. We stopped by just for a cocktail at the bar, and it was genuinely enjoyable to spend time there. It’s the kind of place that pulls your attention to the space itself — the textures, the lighting, the atmosphere all around you. Even a short visit here feels a bit different from the usual spots.

This place is becoming one of my favorite spots! The tuna noodles were absolutely delicious and full of comforting flavor. What really makes this restaurant stand out is the friendly atmosphere and amazing service. Everyone here is welcoming, helpful, and makes you feel right at home. It’s the kind of place you want to keep coming back to. I had a great experience and will definitely be returning regularly!

The Capital Grille was definitely a great experience for my birthday dinner with my man. We got oysters, calamari, and Cesar salad for appetizers. For our entrees, he had the Scallops Risotto, and I had steak. For our sides, we went with the cream spinach. Everything was cooked well and delicious. For my birthday wish, I got a crème brûlée for my dessert. We enjoyed ourselves and will be back. Thank you Capital Grille for a wonderful experience 💕

Capital Grille at Lunch: Leisurely Luxury Without the Nighttime Noise The Capital Grille proves that lunch can still feel like an occasion. From the moment I arrived, Jeff, the greeter, set the tone—welcoming, polished, and effortlessly professional. The kind of greeting that immediately lowers your shoulders and raises your expectations. My server, Marlenny, was outstanding. Warm, attentive, and genuinely kind, she mastered the art of attentive lunch service without ever making the meal feel rushed. Everything flowed smoothly, calmly, and with care. Now, the food—because this lunch came to perform. The Field Greens Salad was crisp, fresh, and restrained in the best way. A light, elegant opener that refreshes rather than fills, setting the table for what’s coming next. The Butternut Squash Bisque with Curried Apples, Mint Gremolata, and Honey was silky and layered, balancing sweetness and spice beautifully. Comforting without being heavy—exactly the kind of soup you want at lunch when you still plan to function afterward. The Maine Lobster Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette, ordered as a main, was a standout. Generous chunks of lobster, bright citrus notes, and a refreshing lightness that somehow manages to feel both indulgent and appropriate for midday. Luxurious without being overwhelming—this dish understands lunch etiquette. The Burrata and Tomatoes delivered creamy freshness and balance, cutting through richer flavors like a palate-cleansing intermission. The Honey-Crusted Double Cut Lamb Rib Chops were rich, tender, and confidently executed—sweet, savory, and undeniably indulgent. Paired with creamed spinach that was velvety and decadent without crossing into excess, it was steakhouse comfort done right. The steak with Capital Grille’s signature sauce was exactly what you want it to be: perfectly cooked, deeply flavorful, and enhanced—not masked—by the sauce. Classic, reliable excellence. And the lemonade deserves its own nod—bright, refreshing, and clearly not an afterthought. A small detail that quietly reinforces the overall quality of the experience. Final Foodie verdict: Capital Grille at lunch delivers elevated dining without the heaviness or formality of dinner. With Jeff setting a welcoming tone and Marlenny guiding the experience with grace, this was a lunch that felt indulgent, relaxed, and impeccably handled. My faves were the tomatoes and burrata, the butternut squash bisque with curried apples and the steak with the signature Sauce. It's the kind of midday meal that makes you slow down—and honestly? That’s the real luxury in the City that Never Sleeps.

Had an incredible experience at Capital Grille, and the service is what truly set it apart. Ryan and Nicole were absolute pros attentive without hovering, knew the menu inside and out, and made great recommendations that didn’t miss. Ryan even made me a special concoction that was spot on those little touches go a long way. You can tell they take pride in what they do. Ashlee and Jeffery tied the whole experience together. Everything ran smoothly, timing was perfect, and they made us feel like regulars even though it wasn’t. Food was excellent as expected, but the service is what makes you come back and this team gets it right.

Wagyu and Wine experience was awesome. The burger was amazing. I got the Grilles Wagyu Cheeseburger and it was amazing. My husband got the Waygu mushroom and Swiss burger. Excellent. I wish I had known about this sooner. Would have loved to have tried the Blue cheese and truffle Wagyu burger. The wine was good I liked it but probably would have stopped at one glass because $30 for Zin is a bit much. Overall everything we ordered was excellent.

This was just a quick find. No plans, never heard of this restaurant, and no word of mout. But those are true gems and Tajin is a true gem. From the moment my boyfriend and I walked in we were greeted and seated. The atmosphere, music, food, drinks, were amazing. I am so sorry I forgot everyone's names but I am definitely going back.

Tajin is a regular spot for us. The food is great and the staff is so kind and attentive. What a great spot to not miss if you’re in Fidi.

We spent quite a while walking around and searching for a place to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, as everywhere was extremely crowded; choosing this spot turned out to be an absolute delight. From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly friendly; they were very helpful regarding my vegetarian option—something I truly appreciate—and the *agua de jamaica* was excellent as well. We were thoroughly satisfied with our food portions, and the atmosphere provided a lovely setting for a very special day and a romantic moment ☺️🥂✨💕

Tajin is a Mexican restaurant next door to George’s, an American restaurant, both very near the Rector Street stop on the 1 train. There is indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered the chicken enchilada platter (2 enchiladas) with yellow rice and black beans with extra green sauce on four occasions ($18.95). All four experiences were positive. The two enchiladas are large and filled with shredded white chicken meat and a bit of pimento and are covered liberally in melted cheese. The portions are generous and completely fill the plate. I had ice water to drink. The meal was very tasty. I added some habanero green bottled hot sauce that was on the table which added a pleasant heat. There is a complete bar available.
Robert Drake - 11 months ago

Guys… you have to check this place out. The food was phenomenal and the staff were so nice and respectful. Can’t wait to come back. If you’re looking for a nice date night or just a quick grab for some delicious mexican cuisine, this is the place!

George’s NYC was outstanding l!!!!! The welcoming atmosphere and staff and great not to mention GREAT food. The club sandwich, pancakes, fries, and eggs were all amazing. Special thanks to Eduardo for exceptional service He was always friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout. I genuinely recommend George’s to anyone in the area craving an authentic breakfast or American comfort food. We’ll be back!

My wife and I are visiting NYC for the 2nd time during a total blizzard. We were hungry after a long day plowing through the snow and everything was canceling and closing but George’s was open right nearby our hotel. The cashier was incredibly friendly and inviting. He helped us navigate their menu which is a traditional diner with breakfast served all day. We ordered the hamburger deluxe style, Cobb salad with extra veggies, and the Mediterranean omelette with the cheese on the side. All three came out great. They gave us good portions on the main dishes and the price was right. Their service was quick too. The coleslaw portion is very small with the hamburger and ask for extra ketchup if you like a good amount with your fries for a to go order. They have a good amount of seating down and upstairs.
Jared Virtue - 9 months ago

Over rated diner. It’s been here forever and it is nothing special. My 7 year old and I decided to check it out and were disappointed. He ordered a banana, strawberry, and Nutella crepe. It was tiny. Tasted ok but is not worth it. I ordered the protein omelette. Terrible. The only thing I enjoyed was the drip coffee. Never again.

The staff and service is outstanding. The menu is extensive and there is something for everyone. This is classic sitdown fast food, fills the belly and warms the soul. Not gourmet, but tastes great.

I visit this store on a regular basis and my drink is always made correctly and James deserves a raise and a promotion. He's always positive and polite and a hard worker. It's a great store with a great manager!
Crystal Braunbeck - 6 months ago

I stopped by Pret a Manager at 5:00 pm, which apparently is equivalent to arriving at a party after the music has stopped and the snacks are gone. I mean, I've seen more extensive menus on a fridge magnet. But hey, I wasn't entirely unlucky! I scored a delicious yogurt without sugar - because, let's be real, who needs sugar when you're already feeling bitter about the limited options? In all seriousness, I'm sure Pret a Manager is a great spot...in the morning. Maybe I'll try my luck then. Until next time, I'll just have to pretend I'm on a sugar-free, option-less diet. P.S. If you're a morning bird, go for it! If you're a afternoon snacker like me...well, may the odds be ever in your favor.

I love their balsamic chicken and mozerella sandwhich. You can taste the freshness of their baguettes in every bite. Their caesar dressing with their chicken salad taste very good as well. I LOVE their caesar dressing, I can honestly drink that stuff! Their lemonade is good as well.

I always love pret whether it’s in the UK or elsewhere in the world. Their chocolate croissant always complements the coffee very well

Good clean grab and go type food establishment. Lots of variety along with canned and bottled beverages. Don't expect the coffee machine to pump out very good coffee.

We went there on Friday, and it wasn’t crowded at all, making it easy to have a conversation. They had plenty of tabletop games, and the food was decent. They offer far more beer options on their menu than most other beer gardens, but it didn’t quite feel like a traditional German beer garden. It felt more like they tried to piece together a nice space, but nothing really matched. I will definitely go back, but I won't have high expectations.

Good spot for office colleagues, decent happy hour menu for drinks $8 drafts & white etc. Snacks like wings, fries & cheese sticks are also not bad. Service depends on the hour, have gone multiple times so depending on the servers mood honestly. Decent for the price. They do have a lot of games so if you don’t want to talk to your boss & play games instead at the office gang, best spot.
Maheen Khurram - 3 months ago

Came here on a gloomy misty day! Perfect for a day like that! Sat inside, but the outdoor patio is covered! So even if it’s raining, you won’t get wet! Place has games throughout! The service was great! Beer was great! The chicken salad was great! I definitely recommend!
Alex Sandoval - 5 months ago

The mozzarella sticks were thin and hollow and came with almost no marinara sauce and way overpriced. The glazed donut grilled cheese was a fun idea but poorly executed and also overpriced. It was soft and mushy and sickly sweet, a strange combination that I wasn’t interested in finishing. The soup it came with was fine but the portion was maybe half a cup. Our sever looked bored out of his mind. The ciders were good, though.
Erik Piepenburg - a month ago

Great beer selection, friendly staff, open late on Saturday compared to other bars. A bit dead on a Saturday night mid February at midnight. Overall, no issues and great beer selection, but only a few groups of self-contained people. They have a nice handful of games including Jenga and checkers both indoors and outdoors and they have one or two claw games but they've got plenty of TVs to be able to watch any of the games for racing or baseball or the Olympics.

Reserve Cut on Broad Street is truly one of the best dining experiences you can get in New York. The atmosphere is elegant, upscale, and energetic without feeling overwhelming, making it perfect for both a special occasion and an unforgettable night out. Every dish we ordered was absolutely outstanding. The corn soup was incredibly rich, and packed with deep flavor. The tacos were sweet and delicious. The dumplings were delicate, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The beef sliders were juicy, tender, and incredibly satisfying. The Surprise Steak was the star of the evening—perfectly cooked, unbelievably tender, and seasoned flawlessly. Every plate was beautifully presented and tasted just as incredible as it looked. The sushi was exceptionally fresh and among the best we’ve had. You can truly taste the quality of the ingredients. The drinks were just as impressive as the food. The Passionfruit cocktail was refreshing, vibrant, while the Fluffy Paloma was unique, light, and absolutely delicious. Their wine selection is excellent. What impressed us most was the consistency. The food is always the same taste with no letdowns. The service was attentive, professional, and welcoming from beginning to end. The staff made us feel genuinely cared for and added to an already exceptional experience. If you’re looking for a luxury steakhouse that delivers on every level—exceptional food, creative cocktails, amazing sushi, outstanding wine, beautiful presentation, and first-class service—Reserve Cut on Broad Street is an absolute must-visit. We can’t wait to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for one of the finest kosher dining experiences in the city. Five stars without hesitation.

The Pinnacle of Kosher Dining – An Unforgettable Steakhouse Experience I recently had the pleasure of dining at Reserve Cut in Manhattan, and I can confidently say it is the best restaurant I have ever visited. This isn’t just a meal; it’s a high-level culinary experience. The Culinary Highlights: The expertise in how the meat is handled and prepared is evident in every bite. We ordered a variety of dishes, and each one was exceptional: The Tomahawk: The star of the show. It was seasoned to perfection and incredibly tender, with a rich, deep flavor that only top-tier cuts can deliver. Short Ribs & Lamb Chops: Both were prepared with masterful precision. The ribs were succulent and fell right off the bone, while the lamb was juicy and perfectly balanced in its seasoning. Starters & Sides: From the beef tacos to the fresh asparagus, every component was professional, well-seasoned, and showed great attention to detail. Atmosphere & Service: The ambiance is sophisticated and high-end, providing a perfect backdrop for a special evening. The service is top-notch—professional, attentive, and knowledgeable. Regarding the pacing, the meal moves at a deliberate speed to allow you to appreciate the food and the atmosphere, so it’s best to come in a relaxed mindset. Final Thoughts: It is important to note that this is a premium destination with prices to match. You should come prepared for a significant expense, but in my opinion, it is absolutely worth it. For anyone looking for the absolute best kosher steakhouse experience in New York, this is the place. Truly the best meal I’ve ever had!

The bar area offers a perfect and more quiet seating. Overall great premium ambience, private dining room is also very elevated and spacious. Extensive wine list. Really good tacos above my expectations. A safe choice of pl place whether you want to entertain vip clients, have a fancy date or catchup over a drink with a friend.
HANE Xxxx - 4 months ago

5 stars - 10/10 Experience. The execution here is top-tier. I ordered the Surprise Steak prepared medium, and it arrived exactly as requested-perfectly pink with a flawless sear. Beyond the steak, the sushi was surprisingly elite. It's rare to find a steakhouse where the sushi is just as good as the meat, but they nailed it. Professional service and a great atmosphere on Broadway.

Mediocre is all I can about this place. The workers are nice. The coffee is coffee, nothing to rave about. The food is subpar. Ordered a Bacon Egg Cheese Breakfast wrap for almost $3 and is about the size of 3-4 packets of ketchup, not to mention the soggy bacon. They used to be much bigger portions.

Bill Bar Burger in NYC near World Trade Center is a nice, cozy spot that immediately feels welcoming the moment you walk in. The interior is clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere that makes you want to sit down and enjoy your meal without rushing. The food definitely lives up to the atmosphere. I ordered the Rocking Burger, and it did not disappoint. The portion size was generous, and the burger itself was juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. You can tell they focus on quality, and it shows in every bite. It’s the kind of burger that satisfies both your hunger and your expectations. I also tried the fries with cheese. They were decent—nothing exceptional, but still enjoyable enough as a side. The burger is really the star here, so even if the fries are ok, the overall experience remains very positive. What stands out most about Bill Bar Burger is how it combines comfort with quality. It’s a great place to stop by whether you’re casually exploring the city or specifically craving a solid, filling burger. If you’re hungry and looking for a reliable, comfortable spot with good food and a welcoming vibe, this place is definitely worth a visit.

We had a great experience at Bill’s Bar & Burger! Our waiter, Tylon, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and really added to our experience. We made sure to tell the manager, George, how much we enjoyed Tylon and how good the food was, and he was very nice and appreciative of the compliment. The quesadillas were fantastic, and the chips and queso were delicious too! Everything was fresh and tasty, and the bathrooms were clean, which is always a big plus. The location was super convenient for us, within walking distance from Hotel Indigo in the Financial District. It’s also connected to a Starbucks and FedEx, which makes it a really convenient stop when you’re staying nearby. Our only complaint? We don’t have a Bill’s Bar & Burger in New Mexico! 😆 And we really wish the quesadillas were bigger because they were mighty tasty and we definitely could have eaten more! Great food, great service, clean facilities, and a convenient location. We’d definitely come back. Sorry no food picks we were tired and headed to bed to fly home early.

Went on a Thursday afternoon. Place was not busy and our we were seated right away. We had the pretzel for an appetizer and it was HUGE & tasty. Grandson had the Fat Cat & I had The Ranch Hand. Both were very good. Grandson also had cheese fries. They also have full bar and a good selection of draft beers. I had the Bronx Brewery Pale Ale and it was very good. Only negative was cost. With tip it was over $100 but everything thing is expensive in NYC 😳

We had a really fun lunch experience here! It’s a typical bar/restaurant with a lively, laid-back vibe, located right at the base of a Marriott. We were seated right away and had an attentive server, which made everything even better. We ordered the “Killer Bs” (sliders), and they were huge—definitely big enough to share between two people. They came with onion rings and fries, which made it an even better deal. We also had the crispy chicken sandwich and the club sandwich, and the bread on the club was especially amazing. And don’t skip the milkshakes—they’re huge and absolutely to die for! Overall, a great spot for good food and a fun atmosphere—would definitely go back!

Stopped by here again for the loaded nachos and wings... and as usual.. forgot to take a Pic 📸 of the food.. ugh! But plan to come here later this month and will take a pic.. but the loaded nachos were definitely loaded and delicious.. and the wings were finger lickin' good! Quiet and cozy.. ample seating. The waiter was super attentive and always asking if everything was OK. Two giant flat TV's mounted on the wall... and of course... dessert was a must. Definitely one of my favorite spots. And the prices were reasonable and the menu had a nice variety of foods to choose from. Two week later.. I ordered loaded nachos and wings.. and this time.. i took a 📸!!! Discipline!!! Lol

This spot is a great when you need a caffeine pick me up. Walk through the revolving door to find the coffee bar on the left. The bathroom can be found all the way in the back. Ordered the Guerande Salted Cream Top iced hojicha. The Guerande is the most popular drink and I completely understand why. The salted cream top is absolutely delicious. The workers here were very friendly. Gotta look more at the pastries next time.

Truly, one of the best coffees I’ve ever had! Totally worth the price. We had a salted caramel coffee and an matcha. Great quality and flavor if you like specialty coffee. ☕️ Also, the staff was really kind and patient towards me and my sister as it was our first time on the place and in NY. I would absolutely come back!

Just an ok place. The toast are served on highly processed bread rather than artisanal bread which I don't think are worth the money. The matcha latte was good. Service was a bit slow even though we were the first ones waiting. The space is kind of uncared for (not very clean, the walls aren't very clean just like the ac vent by the window). Pleasant music selection but overall I wouldn't go back
