Reviews
Bondurants was a random find while we were escaping the rain, and it turned out to be an amazing surprise. Great atmosphere, very friendly service, and excellent food. I was also really happy to find they had Heady Topper available. Definitely going to be a mandatory stop every time I come back to NYC.
I don’t normally write reviews, but the food here truly blew me away. I’m not saying it’s Michelin, but it totally delivers for the price. For me, when it comes to food, value matters as much as taste. A few buddies and I came here after a movie just looking for bar food and drinks. At this price point, especially in the city, I was expecting frozen tenders and tots, or just nothing out of the ordinary, but these tots are the best tater tots I’ve ever had. These are so clearly handmade in-house. It’s like potato arancini. And the seasoning??????? This has ruined tater tots for me because no other tot will live up to this. Same deal with the tenders. Homemade. The breading flakes off the meat when you bite into it. NOT FROZEN. They put care into the dishes. They get major points from me for surpassing expectations. A bar in the city, with these prices, could probably get away with re-frying frozen bar food. These people choose not to. Hell. Yes. The cherry on top? They messed up and accidentally gave us an extra order of tots. Didn’t charge us.
really great food (best American food in the area, especially the chicken tenders). can't go wrong with anything on the menu. solid rotating selection of craft beer too! and a nice cozy interior. best bar in the Yorkville area!!
Bondurant’s on the Upper East Side is honestly the cutest spot! The bar seating is perfect for grabbing a drink and just chilling with friends. The vibe is super cozy and low-key, but still feels a little fancy in the best way. Their cocktails are amazing, and the small plates are perfect if you’re a little hungry.. Bartender was great too!
