Reviews
I had a wonderful dinner wih my parents at this restaurant. The food was delicious; everything that we ordered was perfectly prepared, very well seasoned and total joy to eat. The service was top-notch, and the food recommendations given by our server were spot-on. I can definitely recommend this place.
the food here is incredible!!!! Came for a working lunch and got the pre fixe menu + dessert. Every dish was amazing. The cold pea and asparagus soup was so light and refreshing on a hot day. The bolognese was absolutely perfect as well. It had roast duck in it which gave the usually Italian dish a French twist. Also definitely save room for dessert. The crème brûle was sooo good, also for extreme decadence order the banana date toffee cake!
10/10 only amazing things to say!! I’ve been here a handle of times and it never disappoints. The service is impeccable and the vibes are great. Beef tar tar is one of my favorites out there The leeks is incredible and a must The crab avocado yummm The egg anchovies salad is a must as well For mains The steak is easy and great. People love the chicken it’s not my absolute favorite to recommend, would take the duck over it.
It is one of those rare places that manages to be consistently excellent whether you show up for brunch or dinner. I’ve now done both, and each visit reinforced the same impression: terrific food, genuinely friendly staff, and an atmosphere that makes you want to linger. Set inside the Wythe Hotel, the space is beautiful—bright, elegant, and lively without feeling overwhelming. It attracts a great mix of people, and there’s an energy in the room that makes it simply a nice place to spend time, whether you’re catching up with friends or settling in for a long meal. The food absolutely holds up to the setting. The burger is easily one of the best in New York—rich, perfectly cooked, and deeply satisfying. The quiche, though, is what really surprised me: delicate, custardy, and unbelievably flavorful. It’s the kind of dish that sounds simple but ends up being completely mind-blowing when done this well. And then there’s the sticky toffee pudding. Warm, indulgent, and exactly the kind of dessert you hope for at the end of a great meal. Between the atmosphere, the hospitality, and the consistently strong cooking, this is a place I keep coming back to.
Really good food, with the highlights being the mushroom pate and the duck confit. Service was top notch and I loved the dessert. Great place for a date, book club meeting, or business meeting based on the people around us. The menu changes seasonally so the stuff we got might not be what you get. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible.
