Our favourite bar during our entire stay. We visited every day after our first visit was so great, and it became our local! The food was delicious and the service impeccable. Special shout out to Darren the legend. He made us feel so welcome every visit, especially with how busy this bar is and he remembered us and our drinks order and even the football team my parter supported so the bar felt very homely. Would 10/10 recommend. Get yourselves to Connolly’s guys. Will be back next year

This was an absolutely wonderful dining experience. The booth seating was awesome. A nice and quiet atmosphere. This is the best Fish & Chips I’ve had in NYC. I’ve tried several places but Connolly’s got it right. I did make a reservation but it’s not needed. I recommend Connolly’s highly and cannot wait to return.

After finding a pizza place that we wanted to go to closed we decided to check out Connolly's. Upon entering we were told to go upstairs for quicker service, so we did and we're immediately seated. A server grabbed us waters and I eventually ordered a downeast cider from MA. The cider was super refreshing and had hints of sweetness without being too overpowering.
With my stomach not being too happy I ordered a baked potato and my mom the fish and chips substituting the fries for onion rings. Well the onion rings, to put it as nice as possible, had seen better days. They were way over cooked and hard as bricks--we did not need to even bite into one to notice this! Thankfully the server understood and swapped out the rings for another piece of fish.
And speaking of the fish it was amazing! Lightly fried and a little crispy around the edges it made every bite so good--no tartar sauce needed! Also, the meal came with coleslaw, which was nice surprise. It was cool and creamy and delicious as well. One of the servers recommended that next time we should get vinegar with the fish as it makes it even better.
Great service and good food.

Is Irish pub and restaurant is a fine choice for dinner before or after your show just off Broadway. We had the bangers and mash and the lamb burger both of which were delicious. Their Guinness is poured right from a tap and their establishment is clean and well-staffed.

Make sure you have a reservation! We did and were able to get seated faster ... but 30 minutes later than the reservation time. It was a Saturday night in early December and therefore busy. The crowds from Rockefeller Center Spilled Out for blocks in all directions. So getting to the restaurant was a challenge. The food was just okay. It came out very fast, the staff was very attentive and friendly. They're all doing the best they can. A very busy restaurant this Saturday night. They have to say it again, make sure you have a reservation! Pictures is Lance stew and fish and chips. Also other entrees are bangers and mash, potato leek soup, and then pump food.

This place was absolutely amazing! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the manager, Caesar, who complimented me immediately. He made me feel so beautiful and special as I told him it was my birthday. Then, as I sat down with my boyfriend Will, the waiter was absolutely just so sweet kind and had a great personality. The food was absolutely delectable. The food came out at a really great time nice and hot and everything was so fresh and delicious. The crabcakes were absolutely phenomenal, and the bacon was to die for. We both ordered steak with lobster mac & cheese, mashed potatoes and truffle fries. The serving sizes were perfect as we had enough to take home. Both Will and Cesar really went above and beyond to make my birthday really special with just some amazing treats they sent over. Honestly, celebrating my birthday at Del fresco’s was such a wonderful choice. The food was great. The service was top-notch and I left feeling just so pleased with my experience. Thank you again to Cesar and Will for being so amazing! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone as I have already done so!

We had just made it to town, were hungry, and didn't want to shop around for food. My wife and I dined here the last time we were in town and loved our meal. So, dining hear again was a no brainer.. Del Frisco's it is.
Our second time didn't disappoint either We ordered steaks, cocktails, appetizers and wine.
For the cocktails, she had the Passion Fruit Margarita, and I had the Whistle Pig Barrel Aged Manhattan. The cocktails were on point. Additionally, we both had a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon with our meal.
For the appetizer we went with the Thick-Cut Nueske’s Bacon and the Charred Octopus. The Bacon was excellent, smokey and delicious. The Octopus was disappointing. It was overcooked and chewy, so we had to send that one back.
For our main courses, my wife ordered the Braised Angus Short Rib and was later informed that it was sold out, so she settled for the Filet Mignon, and I had the Bone-In Prime Ribeye. For our sides we had fries, broccolini and the Classic Caesar. Oh, and not to mention, that wonderful warm bread for the table. All of the meats were cooked to perfection, the sides were great, but on a side note... the side of fries was way more then we expected. I would say was enough for 5 people.
The steak house itself has a nice sexy ambiance, but still chill enough for the fellas to grab a meal or hang at the bar.
The service was great, our waiter M.D. was very professional and attentive. He was very apologetic for the mess up on the Short Rib order and the over cooked Octopus. Even the Supervisor, (Kristin), came over and checked on us to make sure we were good and chatted with us about the New York food scene.
Thank you both for a good time.

I would like to begin by acknowledging that the servers and bartenders were professional, attentive, and welcoming. Their service was appreciated.
However, the Shrimp Greek Salad I received during my recent visit was disappointing and did not reflect the steakhouse standards I associate with Del Frisco’s. I chose your restaurant specifically for a birthday lunch, expecting a meal aligned with your reputation and price point.
The salad consisted primarily of lettuce — some visibly browned — with no cheese included and only three shrimp. The portioning and overall presentation fell below expectations for a restaurant positioned at your level.
As this was intended to be a celebratory meal, it was disheartening to leave feeling underwhelmed. I trust this was an oversight and would appreciate your review of this matter and how it may be appropriately addressed.
Thank you for your time. I look forward to your response.

Five-Star Review for Del Frisco’s – Manhattan
Del Frisco’s in Manhattan delivers an experience that reminds you why New York City is known for world-class dining. From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere feels elevated and full of energy. The staff greets you warmly and treats you like a valued guest throughout the entire meal. The service is smooth, attentive, and thoughtful without ever feeling rushed. Everyone working there seems to take real pride in what they do, which sets the tone for the rest of the evening.
The steaks truly deserve the reputation they have. Each cut is cooked exactly the way you ask, with a perfect sear on the outside and a tender, flavorful center. You can tell the kitchen uses high-quality ingredients and takes care in every step. The sides are just as impressive. The lobster macaroni and cheese, creamed spinach, and mashed potatoes are rich and satisfying. They complement the main dishes rather than overpowering them. Even the bread service is memorable, which says a lot about the overall attention to detail.
The seafood options are another highlight. The crab cakes are packed with lump crab meat and seasoned well. The shrimp cocktail is fresh and chilled correctly. Everything arrives beautifully presented, and the flavors match the presentation. For drinks, the wine list is extensive and curated with care. The staff is knowledgeable and ready to help you pair the right bottle or cocktail with your meal.
Dessert is worth saving room for. The butter cake is one of the best ways to end a dinner, warm and soft with a balance of sweetness that makes you want to order another. Whether you are celebrating a special occasion or just want a great night out, Del Frisco’s knows how to make the evening feel important.
Overall, Del Frisco’s in Manhattan stands out because it combines outstanding food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Every part of the dining experience feels intentional. It is easy to see why so many people consider it a must-visit steakhouse in the city. If you want a meal that is consistently exceptional from start to finish, this is the place to go. This is a well-deserved five-star experience.

I visited this restaurant to celebrate my birthday, and everything was wonderful from start to finish. We were welcomed at the table with decorative touches that made the evening feel extra special. The appetizers were delicious, the cocktails were excellent, and the steak was cooked perfectly—we loved it.
A special thank you to Edgar, who went above and beyond to make our night memorable. We truly appreciate his help and kindness. Highly recommended!

Looked around places in NYC for a burger and drink at a bar. The Capital Grill really delivered. Service is so much better, staff friendly & helpful. Bathrooms were really clean and multiple team member asking if we need anything else. Wagyu & Wine was a great deal and glad I stopped by!

We came as walk-ins and were very grateful that we were seated right away. Our server, Maria, was very sweet; however, overall the wait staff was not at the level expected of a fine dining establishment. Their English was quite poor. The service itself was excellent, and thanks to Maria for her food recommendations.
One thing I would point out is that the hostesses do not seem to have a proper dress code for a place like this—it’s really not appropriate to see a hostess wearing UGG boots and a gray T-shirt.

Started with fresh oysters. Best steak I’ve ever had. Highly recommend the bone in ribeye accompanied Sam’s mashed potatoes and the grilled asparagus and the service was impeccable. Delaney and the rest of the staff elevated the whole experience. Will definitely come back again and tell my friends to come if they ever have the chance
Brandon Hickey - 3 months ago
We visited this place because it’s known for its steaks. The three of us shared two different cuts, and while the meat itself seemed to be of good quality, the seasoning was far too strong and salty—we couldn't eat much and ended up leaving most of it.
Compared to many great steakhouses in Manhattan, it was a bit of a letdown. That said, the service was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed.

Delicious food, friendly staff, and great prices! Plenty of options for me that were gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. A bit loud for my taste but it was a great experience. Thrilled by the guava smoothie. The staff that greeted us were warm. Luiza, our server, was nice and attentive. The people that came to our table with waters, our orders, and to pick up dishes were so friendly too. And did I mention the delicious food?! Thanks to entire team - from the front end to the kitchen and everyone in between. Definitely recommend! 👏

Visited Friday night for happy hour. Our wait to get a table was 50 minutes. Instead we went to the bar and were lucky that guest left and we had availability for 2 seats. Our server Israel made our transition smoothly and quick. We order various appetizers and drinks. Beer Pacifico and Blue moon
.Drinks passion fruit mojito with fresh sugar cane and mint. The band was there tuning their sound for a while but once they got it together they played a set of various song not limited to Cuban music. Overall it was good atmosphere and food. I liked the green sauce instead of f the mayo sauce drizzle all over out appetizers. I've been to the LI Havana central which i visited various times and they also ha e live bands and delicious food.

The night I went to Havana Central was my first time in New York City and he made my experience even greater. The food was absolutely excellent. I live in California and I've tried a few Cuban places and this one was one of the best. The young man who served me was outstanding super Pleasant and very attentive I forget his name I wish I could remember it all I know is that he is very young thin half Mexican half Salvadorian but he made my experience a Havana Central the more pleasant. I love the atmosphere the decorations the happiness of the people celebrating and even though they were super busy everyone seem to be having a great time. If you ever go to New York City you must try Havana Central.

I can honestly say that Oceans is the best seafood restaurant I have ever experienced. From the moment we walked in, everything felt exceptional.
The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed — refined without being stuffy. There’s a real buzz in the room, but it never feels overwhelming. The space is beautifully designed and creates the perfect setting for a special evening.
The service was outstanding. Attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without being overbearing — the staff clearly take pride in what they do. Every recommendation was spot on, and we were made to feel genuinely welcome throughout the entire meal.
As for the seafood, it was simply superb. Fresh, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. Every dish tasted premium and thoughtfully prepared.
It’s definitely on the expensive side, but in this case, you truly get what you pay for. The quality of the food, the impeccable service, and the atmosphere make it absolutely worth the cost.
A memorable dining experience from start to finish — I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

We came to Oceana for Restaurant Week and had an amazing experience. The swordfish ceviche was incredibly fresh, unique, and honestly the best ceviche I’ve ever had. The fish entrée was grilled perfectly, and the seafood pasta was cooked beautifully with well-balanced, flavorful sauces. We were genuinely impressed — the quality and execution felt even stronger than some Michelin-starred restaurants we’ve visited during Restaurant Week. The atmosphere was elegant yet welcoming, and the service was attentive throughout. Highly recommend.

A wonderful experience at Oceana. We first had some drinks at the bar while waiting for our table. Very busy and lovely grows. Once we got seated it was quieter in the dining area. Had a large group and took advantage of the Seafood Tower. The beet salad was really good as was the filet.

The only downside was that the interior is quite large, so it was a bit noisy.

I recently went to Del Frisco’s Grille and honestly… the food was very mid. I didn’t realize this was a completely separate restaurant from Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse— I thought they were the same. That was my mistake. It definitely feels like an off-brand version😩….
The salmon was dry and lacked flavor. The appetizers weren’t bad, but nothing impressive either. The only thing I truly enjoyed was my boyfriend’s crab lump cake appetizer — that was actually pretty good.
We both ordered the same entrée, and overall it was just very average. The macaroni and cheese was especially disappointing — watery and tasted like boxed mac. I was so shocked I asked the waiter about it, and that’s when she explained that it’s a different concept and that a different owner took over this location.
The sides were also the smallest portions I’ve ever seen at a restaurant in this price range.

Good experience overall because of polite service and the spirit of the location, but food is rather a let-down. Shrimp cocktail is a huge rip off - totally frost-bitten and dried out smallish shrimps for $25... Branzino served with strange-tasting salad. Calamary portion is small Humus is ok. Steak was good. Good service. Would I come back? Not sure.

Nothing more convenient than seeing the Rockefeller Christmas Tree and walking a block away to this fabulous restaurant. The place was decorated just beautifully. The 4 of us each had steak for dinner. My friend and I had the Prime Rib steak cooked to perfection and LOVED the tasty rub on it. Of the other couple one had Short Ribs and the other had Petite Filet Mignon. They said it was EXCELLENT as well ! We ordered a couple of “sides” to share and shared a fabulous Cookie Crumble Sundae that was out of this world. We all loved the whole experience being at DelFrisco’s!!

Went for Thanksgiving dinner. It was fine. Plate could've been larger for the cost, but the cuisine was pretty standard. Ambiance was nice. I was seated in a quieter corner, which I appreciated. Server was also fine, though I waited 10-15 minutes to pay once I had the check. Nothing remarkable in the positive or negative.

Can't seem to get it together for uber eats orders. Half the time when I order from here my order is wrong and the majority of the time it's when I order the oxtail. Today they sent stew beef im it's place as if it's the same thing. Didn't bother to call me to confirm if I was ok with the substitution. Stew beef is much harder/chewier and CHEAPER cut of beef yet they thought I would just be ok with paying such a high price for a low quality of meat. Even worse , they sent me just 4 small pieces of meat. I promptly filed a complaint.

I have been going to Sophie’s for years and the food never disappoints!! I got the shredded beef stew this time and it was just as good as always, especially with the green sauce, which is a little bit spicy (not too hot though). I will definitely come again.

Went here with my coworkers to get lunch. This is the second location I've been to and the line is a bit long during lunchtime but goes by quickly. Their green sauce is really good and def recommend getting a platter. The shredded beef was tender and was flavorful. The empanada esp the beef one hits every single time!

This was my first time dining in at this location. I’ve tried their chicken fried rice several times as takeout and always enjoyed it, so I went in with high expectations.
However, the dine-in experience was disappointing. There was a private party happening, and while the noise wasn’t an issue at first, the loud music and the crowd at the entrance made the entire space feel congested and chaotic. It felt like we were seated inside the party, and no one acknowledged or apologized for the inconvenience.
The tables were extremely close together, to the point where it felt like I was sharing a side table with another group. As for the food, the flavors were good, but my chili garlic noodles (ordered vegetarian) had no vegetables at all, which was unexpected.
I wouldn’t call it a bad experience, but it definitely fell short. At the very least, the staff should have informed us about the private party and potential disturbances before seating us. I’ll likely continue ordering takeout because the food is reliable, but I wouldn’t choose to dine in again, it simply wasn’t worth the time or discomfort.

Great experience at this restaurant! We ordered egg devil, veg Hakka chowmein, and Schezwan chicken. The food was so good that I forgot to take pictures, managed to click one of the egg devil.
The chowmein tasted like authentic Indian Hakka Chinese, something I hadn’t had since leaving India 7 years ago. Really satisfying and nostalgic experience. Highly recommended!

Amazing authentic food
Staff are very friendly and attentive.
We ordered Saag paneer , garlic naan , veg fried rice and veg Manchurian along with chaas and mango lassi.
Every item was delicious.
Little on the expensive side but worth one time visit for sure.

I dined at utsav Restaurant in times square , and it was an unforgettable experience! The ambiance was warm and inviting, but it was the food that truly stole the show. The butter chicken, bunna gosht, and chicken biryani were absolutely divine - the flavors were so rich and authentic, I couldn't get enough! The portions were generous too. The lady at the front desk - anchal was extremely courteous; she made us feel so comfortable and frequently checked if everything was fine. Highly recommend this place for authentic Indian cuisine.

Food was absolutely amazing. I was in a party of six. 3 of us got the following items: Five Cheese Ziti, Build Your Own Pasta Bowl with side Soup (Pasta with Mushroom Alfredo Sauce + Chicken & Gnocchi Soup), and Ravioli Carbinara with added Chicken. Our server was Michelle and she was absolutely amazing!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Dining Experience at Olive Garden – 2 Times Square, New York!
I recently visited the Olive Garden Italian Restaurant located at 2 Times Square, and I have to say—it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish!
From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel genuinely welcome. The service was truly excellent—attentive, warm, and perfectly paced. Every team member I interacted with went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed, all while maintaining a friendly and professional attitude.
And the food… wow. Every dish was packed with flavor, beautifully prepared, and incredibly satisfying. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the sauces were rich and fresh, and even the classic breadsticks were warm and irresistible. You can really taste the care that goes into each plate.
Whether you’re a local or just visiting Times Square, this Olive Garden is a fantastic choice for a relaxing and delicious Italian meal in the middle of the city’s excitement. I left completely happy and definitely planning to return soon.
Highly recommend! 🍝✨

🍝 Olive Garden Times Square — Comfort Italian Dining in the Heart of New York
One of the restaurants I chose for a proper sit-down meal during my time in Times Square, New York, was Olive Garden. After a full day of walking, sightseeing, and soaking in the energy of the city, this place felt like a comfortable and familiar stop for a hearty Italian-style dinner right in the middle of Manhattan.
Olive Garden is an Italian-American restaurant chain that was founded in 1982 in Florida, USA. The concept behind the brand is simple: serve Italian-inspired dishes that are generous in portion, rich in flavor, and easy to enjoy. Over the years, Olive Garden has grown into one of the most recognizable casual dining restaurants in the United States, and the Times Square location is especially popular among tourists from all over the world.
📍 Location
Olive Garden Times Square is located in the Theater District, just steps away from Times Square itself. The location is extremely convenient, whether you are coming from shopping areas, nearby attractions, or planning to watch a Broadway show. Several subway lines are within walking distance, making it very easy to reach.
🍝 Must-Try Popular Dishes
One of the highlights of dining at Olive Garden is the complimentary Unlimited Breadsticks and House Salad. The warm breadsticks are soft, buttery, and addictive, while the fresh salad with the signature dressing is light and refreshing.
For main dishes, the most popular menu items include:
• Fettuccine Alfredo, a classic favorite featuring flat pasta coated in a rich, creamy parmesan sauce
• Chicken Parmigiana, breaded chicken topped with tomato sauce and melted cheese, served with spaghetti
• Shrimp Scampi, sautéed shrimp with garlic and white wine sauce, offering a lighter and fresher taste
• Lasagna Classico, layered pasta with meat sauce and cheese for those who want something filling
For dessert, Tiramisu is a top choice, offering a perfect balance of coffee flavor and creamy sweetness.
⏰ Opening Hours
Olive Garden Times Square is generally open daily from around 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM, though hours may be extended during weekends or peak tourist seasons.
💰 Prices
Considering the location and portion sizes, the prices are reasonable:
• Main dishes usually range from $20 to $30
• Desserts are around $8 to $10
• The unlimited breadsticks and salad make the meal feel even more worth the price
🏡 Atmosphere
The restaurant is spacious with plenty of seating, making it suitable for families, couples, and groups. Despite being in a busy area like Times Square, the interior feels warm and welcoming, with a casual Italian ambiance. The service is efficient and friendly, even during busy dinner hours.
✨ Final Thoughts
Olive Garden Times Square is a reliable choice if you are looking for a satisfying Italian-style meal in a comfortable setting. The food is hearty, the portions are generous, and the location is perfect for tourists. For anyone wanting a relaxed dinner after exploring New York City, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

First and last time at Olive Garden. The food was pretty good, but the service needs serious work. When we arrived up the escalator we didn’t immediately realise the hostess desk was a sharp left and left again, and the attitude of this particular staff member appeared to be annoyance based on her facial expression, rather than understanding of the confusion. This set the tone for the entire meal. Our waiter was friendly but not attentive, he delivered our starters but we had no cutlery, and it took five minutes to get anyone’s attention to resolve the matter. It could have been solved quicker if staff were not continuously on their phones or chatting to each other. One staff member was on their phone 50 minutes out of the hour, they were in my line of sight and it was hard to ignore the unprofessionalism. Then, when our food did arrive, one of the orders was incorrect, but it was resolved quickly. Finally, when our bill came, I was asked directly what % tip I would be giving, when I said 20%, the particular staff member rolled his eyes, as I assume he wanted more. This place needs a serious management and staff overhaul, it should be the flagship store and be setting that standard. Service charge should be for good service, not whatever this was.

coming from europe you will find out that everything here tastes bland. keeping that in mind we order fettuccine alfredo with chicken, we paid 27$ for that plate portion wise it was ok, it was full of chicken and butter so its not something amazing....the service was amazing it was the only place we left a tip. the restaurant is next to times square so its really easy to get there....for sure you have to try it once...the breadsticks were ok and since they are free its a good thing to have

The hostess is not very welcoming. The fish tacos and fish n chips were good. The cheeseburger was just ok…heavy thick bun(supposed to be signature), thick, dry patty. I would not order it if given another chance. All in all, a good place to have a drink and average bar food if you have had a few drinks.

I had a salad here today, and both the taste and the service were amazing! Karina, in particular, was very kind and attentive, and thanks to her, my experience was perfect. I will definitely come back! 🌿💚

This was a really cool Irish Bar, situated right in the middle of downtown Manhattan. We sat on the rooftop, which despite not having a great view, was very interesting! The food was great, the drinks were good enough, and the staff was alright. This restaurant took me back in time a little bit, which I mean in the best way possible. If they can get the service part down a little bit better, it'd be a can't miss place! Would recommend.

We went here before a show at a nearby theater to watch a football game. They have a nice selection of domestic and imported beers. They also have 5 TVs so it's a good place to watch a game. Service was good.
