"In the mood for pub food, then this is a place for you. On this very cold January Monday, we were looking for good pub food with a relaxed, chill vibe. And upon entry I knew my fellow Yelpers had not let us down. Good food, good service & a good NYC Irish pub. My fish n' chips were fresh and yummy; I would have liked it if it were a wee bit crispier but the freshness of the fish made it worth my while; my husband's burger was huge and delicious but messy...lol! Coupled with a Sam Adams pint beer, the meals were satisfying and complete."

"This place is a neighborhood gem! Tucked away on a Greenwich Village side street it, this fine Italian eatery was found to be cozy, warm, and welcoming on a recent cold night while visiting the city with a group of friends. We sat at a table in the front room, near to the bar where we could watch the buzz of cool New Yorkers file in the establishment. Our server was very helpful in helping to choose from too many good looking options from the menu. We started with crispy artichokes and the antipasti - all of it delicious. The mushroom stuffed gnocchi the size of golf balls in a savory buttery truffle sauce was a hit at the table, as was the tortellini in broth and the mouth watering ravioli Cacio e Pepe. All of it was finished off with a big bold Italian red wine. This place is amazing in vibe, food, and service."

"Came here with my mom and daughter for brunch. Mom had the pastrami Benedict-ish which was amazing (it had onion jam too!), my daughter had the kids scrambled eggs with bacon and tater tots, and I had the eggs in hell. Everything was very tasty, servers were very attentive, and they had great coffee. I'd definitely come back!"

The Horny Ram

★★★★☆ 4.2 (799) • $$

"While waiting for our dinner reservations, we popped into this lovely bar for a quick drink. It was quite busy on a weeknight, but bartenders were also quick to take our orders and provide any service.I ordered the Garden of Heat-en ($16) while my friends had the Drink Formerly Known As ($16) and #HornyinNewYork ($16). All three drinks were refreshing and colorful. All the ingredients were prevalent as we sipped the drinks. Great bar to meet with friends in the lively Midtown East area."

The Flying Cock

★★★★☆ 4.2 (731) • $$

"I came here on a Saturday for brunch and the place was packed and it had a nice vibe going. My friends and I went with the bottomless brunch which was $27 when you buy a brunch entree. What I love was that the bottomless not only included mimosas but Aperol spritz which I'm a huge fan of.The spritz were very tasty yet strong enough.As far as my entree I went with the brunch nachos with buffalo chicken. The nachos were delicious and a very generous portion for one.I really enjoyed our brunch and will definitely be coming back."

American Cut Steakhouse Tribeca

★★★★☆ 3.9 (694) • $$$$

"So the ambiance here is very nice and corporate dinner-esque. But we didn't think the food was memorable or anything to write home about. We came for Restaurant Week so got to try a bunch of their hits. On the whole, things were bland. That includes the spinach, Mac & cheese, and the burger. Here's the standouts:- The biscuits they give you for free- The pickles that come on the side of the burger- The chili lobster soup"

Convivium Osteria

★★★★☆ 3.9 (569) • $$$

"My coworkers and I got invited to come here for a rep dinner event. The place itself is definitely small and cozy (really nice date night vibes). They had us downstairs which was very rustic wine cellar vibes. Since it was an event - the menu was pre-fixed including the drinks. The mint lemonade that they have is absolutely delicious - would recommend this!For food we got: -Burrata: This was so good, but you cannot go wrong with burrata. Highly recommend this-Plenta: Would pass on this - the smell was very off-putting for the majority of us and we were not a fan of the texture-Gamberetti: The shrimp was really good, the flavors went really well with the shrimp and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. -Fettuccine: This was just alright, nothing special. The pasta was perfectly cooked but the flavor was just alright -Linguine: Highly recommend this; the flavors were so good together. -For Dessert they gave us: tirasmisu, chocolate cake and panna cotta - the best one was tiramisu in my opinion.Overall cute spot for a date and the food was pretty good!"

Foxy Johns Bar & Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.2 (368) • $$

"A true hidden gem because this place has a neighborhood bar kinda vibe but food is not supposed to taste as amazing as Foxy John's! I am still waiting for something on their menu to not like. Bang bang shrimp? SLAPS! Specially if you get it with the California Cobb! Boom you just tried two of their items. Also the flat iron steak and fries? DELICIOUS! Steak was cooked perfect and fries perfectly seasoned! General Tao's and white rice on the side and boom you have a full meal! Also when I do have drinks there the margaritas and drinks they make are always strong! Best neighborhood place to eat and drink for me!"

Chazz Palminteri Italian Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4 (392) • $$$

"Great food, attentive service, and a great location. The ambience is a little dark so bring your reading glasses. A great, intimate vibe, and guests of all types. Prices are big, but so are the portions, and the flavors and preparations are great."

48 Lounge

★★★★☆ 4 (380) • $$$

"Very classy spot to hang out for any type of celebrations. It wasn't chaotic nor extra the vibes was just right and the crowd was cool not crowded. The service was great. The drinks were great.Right in the heart of times Square just makes felt more chill lounge with good dj musics he plays the old and new songs.It's best to make reservations so that you have guaranteed seating."

Bar SixtyFive

★★★★☆ 4.1 (351) • $$$

"I booked tickets for the Valentine's Day dinner special a month and a half in advance. When I was filling out the forms, under requests I mentioned that I would like a table by the window if possible.We got there and the whole thing was weird. First, there was an event/concert and the lines where long. The security asked us to check our coats. I was cold and I wanted to keep mine a little longer. He basically forced us and walked us to the coat check counter. The lady behind the counter said " oh no, you have to check the coats. It's standing room only. You won't have space around you for all that" I said, how come if I booked my table in advance and this is supposed to be a dinner. I'm not going to eat standing. She kept arguing her point and we gave up. A nice girl in the main floor guided us to the elevators. We arrived to Bar SixtyFive and the hostess seemed a little lost, couldn't find my name and was kind of mean.Another girl walked us to the table and sat us by the door table. I asked her how come we are not seated by the window because I added that special request when I booked my tickets. She said she wasn't the boss and that she couldn't do anything. Then she said " you can go to that table accross and take pictures of the view there" how dare you that you will go to another table and bother people who also paid their money to eat quietly.We sat there and no one came or even said a word. I was angry and didn't want to seat there. There were other tables by the window empty. Finally, the hostess decided to move us to the table by the window. Everyone and their moms had their coats and their belongings with them. Long story short, the service was terrible. There was a girl checking on all the tables except ours. Thank goodness she wasn't our waiter. We arrived to the place at 6:25 and finally received table/food service at 7:13. Our assigned waiter was nice. He was attentive and cool. I give him 5 Stars.I had this review on Drafts for a long time. Posting now as I got access back to my Yelp account."

Casa Ora

★★★★☆ 4.3 (301) • $$$

"I've been here a few times now and I can say I'm a true fan of their brunch menu. Mainly b/c I've been able to get a last min reserv and I remember that great cocktail I've had and want it again, lol. My last time here was the last Saturday in August. I had a friend visiting from out of town and I knew she would love this place...and she did!For drinks she and my other friend had bellinis and I had the Ora ramble. I'm not sure how many were had...but many, LOL!For food my friend and I shared the Pabellón a Caballo, my other friend got the home breakfast, and for the table "Tacon" French Toast. Ummm, the plates were left empty...lol lol. I'm determined to make it for dinner the next time. Maybe you'll see me!"

Hill and Bay

★★★★☆ 3.5 (399) • $$

"The mahi mahi was so dry and awful. The salsa was dry too. Only the broccoli was good but I can make that at home. Mt friends didn't enjoy their steak or ravioli. Happy hour drink deal was good but the Irish espresso martini was meh. Service was good until we tried to pay for the bill since they didn't come to take our card. Ambiance was good."

The Grill

★★★★☆ 4 (295) • $$$$

"Incredible dinner and steak. Service is top notch and extremely attentive. While they have all the standard steakhouse favorites, they have some twists and really unique dishes that stands out with other steakhouses in NYC. Cannot go wrong here at all. The beef is absolutely out of this world. Had a double cut Chateau Briand, pasta and crab cake for appetizers.The restaurant itself is a vibe. A large bar area with music isolated away from a double floor sitting area."

Cloud Social Rooftop Bar

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (338) • $$

"Came here for a rooftop drink and while it's def a rooftop, there are quite a few structures that kind of obstruct your full view of the city. That being said, I tried their "you call that a kiss" drink and it was actually quite delicious. The service was friendly. The vibe is a bit weird when you try to get here because the building itself is a hotel (NYMA) and you might take some time waiting for the elevator, waiting for people to get on and off, etc. That being said, it's a nice spot to chill outside - there's a big structure with plastic walls for you to sit in if you're nonsmoking which I'm sure they just have for the winter. There's a separate area that's totally open but still, not great views of the city, but you can smoke here and it is heated. If it's too hot you can ask to turn them off."

Serafina Italian Restaurant Time Hotel

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (306) • $$

"The food was wonderful. The ambiance was very relaxing and the serving staff was amazing. The location however! I hate going to places near Time square. Leave EARLY. The place will be hard to get to. But honestly this place is an amazing and there are different location options if you need. I got the Calamari which was made perfectly. I also got the Cacio e Pepe -- really good. I have zero complaints about the food. Portions were good. Bread and olive oil as a little nibble before the food. My drink was good. I heard the margaritas were better though. I'll get that next time."

"Great ambiance, service, and food. They have pre-theater dining down to a science. Would also be a great spot for special occasion dining."

Hunters Steak & Ale House

★★★★☆ 3.7 (153) • $$$

"Tried this restaurant for the first time because of restaurant week and I'm glad I did. Came for lunch with my family and most of us tried the 10oz sirloin. Despite NOT being served on those sizzling hotplates with lots of oil and/or butter, the steak was surprisingly flavorful and tasty. We all enjoyed the steak and it was cooked the way we wanted it. I had to order a salmon filet to share with my toddler. Unfortunately, he wasn't in the mood for salmon but he enjoyed the julienned veggies. Also ordered the fish and chips, as well as yhe chicken fingers for the kids. They enjoyed them both. Service was great. Love that it seems to be family owned as they were training their teenage son how to be a waiter.Overall, I would definitely come back for some tasty but affordable steak. They have alot of other items on the menu as well including pasta, chicken, fish."

Glass Ceiling Rooftop

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (171) • $$$

"I was shocked when I saw that Glass Ceiling had reservations available for a table on a Friday night in December. Seems like this place is a solid kept secret because the ambiance is warm, moody, very "New York City." It is quiet, dark, romantic, has a spectacular view of the Empire State Building - but be careful, their drinks aren't for the faint of heart! They're absolutely delicious, but they do have a true and generous pour. I recommend getting something to eat while sipping on cocktails. I highly suggest grabbing drinks and a bite here for happy hour, maybe before the Rangers game or a concert - it's close to MSG, a few blocks away, absolutely worth it!"

Rosemary's - Midtown

★★★★☆ 4.2 (91)

"I was dining alone and traveling on a weeknight and most restaurants since it was 9:09pm at night were just closed. This was thankfully opened and I ate every bite. The bar was where I sat and the bartenders gave me attentive service. This restaurant is cozy, dark, and smells like an Italian restaurant should. I was satisfied with my veal bolognese pappardelle though I had been expecting a traditional bolognese sauce. It was good nonetheless. My amaretto crunch gelato was delicious and my spritz was perfect."

T Fusion Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 3.9 (102) • $$$

"When you go out to eat (and spend money) you expect good food and maybe a little bit of an experience. Last night we got way more than that, and that is precisely why T-Fusion is my favorite restaurant. Period. I've been to them all. This is the best. I emailed the manager here about a birthday promotion they ran on their website - provide your email address and your birthday and receive a promotion. Unfortunately, I never received the promotion. I wrote that I've been here about twice in the past couple months (actually 8 times over the past two years!). So, I emailed about why I didn't get the promotion. Within an hour, she replied: free drinks and dessert. Whoa! Amazing! Shorty after we arrived, the owner introduced herself. She was very nice. A few minutes later she brought Executive Chef Daniel Rivera. We spoke about bringing back the flour less chocolate cake, which surprisingly disappeared from this past year's menu (it was the best cake I've EVER tried - Passover or no). The chef said, "sure, I can bring it back. No problem"!We also spoke about the meat board - an appetizer in the form of various meats on a wooden board. He told us he changed the board to home grown and in-house made items only (some of the items on the old voard were brought in). Very nice talking to the chef. Nice guy!So we ordered the meat board, bourbon ribs, chicken tenders, and a cowboy steak. Well the meat board has changed! It has bone marrow, steak tartare, three small meat dishes (kalbasa was one), and liver. It also has a home-grown delicious fog dip and mustard. The chef told me he personally grew the figs over the summer. Pretty cool. I think this new meat board was geared at people who like more exotic meat dishes. I don't. The old board had beef bacon and sausages and other delicious stuff the younger generation likes. I prefer the old board, but if you like steak tartare and the other stuff, go for this board. Maybe they can have both options?The bourbon ribs were able to be eaten with a spoon! I've never had such tasty ribs. I told the waiter to bring out the three steak sauces with the ribs. These three sauces are amazing, by the way.The cowboy steak was cooked perfectly. I got the waiter to bring out the sauces again. I pour the entire contents of all three onto my steak. Delicious! Seriously! Try it!For dessert, we had a tea and churros. The waiters sang happy birthday and then brought an instant Polaroid camera and took a picture of us. Such a nice touch. Wife was floored!This place makes amazing churros! Chocolate sause and strawberry puree. My wife liked this puree better than a tangy yellow puree they served with the churros a couple of months ago. I've experienced great service (Reserve Cut and Five-Fifty). But then there's what I call T-service (T-Fusion service). Drinks never reached the bottom. Plenty of servers. Servers walking around checking on their tables, but not getting in the way of customers (an art, by the way). Great waiters who clean the table before dessert and pack your stuff up and hand it to you at the end of the meal as opposed to in middle of dessert. Amazing valet. Nicest owner who comped our wine, tea, and dessert. Generous portions. This is my go to restaurant. I have no reason to go any where else. Everything is here! T you again!"

""This is what dreams are made of" #HilaryDuffThis place HAS IT ALL!!! Great atmosphere, great food and great drinks. Zachary is a legend behind the bar. He is fast, efficient, and even has a smile on his face while making drinks. Qualities that John Taffer would appreciate.Lilicay (Lilly-Kay) - is an amazing DJ. She is normally DJing on Fridays. For all the millennials out there, this is the spot for you!The Pork Ragu sliders ante NEXT LEVEL. I have never tried anything like it. I have never hat a "pork Ragu" slider before all I can say is, it a tight race with beef Ragu with the Pork Ragu out in front. The calamari fritti is PERFECT!! The breading doesn't come off, the red sauce is perfect (with a touch of spice). And did I forget to mention, it's all circles. This place is perfect for hosting events happy hour and yourself if you're looking for a good night out As a great man once said, #I'llBeBack"

Empire Steak House-Times Square

★★★★★ 4.7 (61)

"Outstanding staff! Everything about our experience was top notch. Food cooked to perfection - knowledgeable and courteous servers. Accommodating host. Thank you Empire for making a memorable Thanksgiving experience for my family."

Mareluna

★★★★☆ 4.1 (57)

"First time at Mareluna and it definitely did not disappoint. The restaurant is clean, cozy, and intimate. Staff were friendly and checked in on us often. My friend and I shared the bruschetta, cacio e pepe, and pear salad. Bruschetta was better than I expected - Bread was soft and nicely toasted with well seasoned tomatoes. Cacio e pepe was so simple and flavorful. The spaghetti was perfectly al dente and chewy. Mareluna spritz is sweet, refreshing, and fruity. Pear salad was just okay, not memorable. In the end, my friend and I left with full and satisfied bellies!"

"I'm unsure of the appeal of this restaurant past the view. Unfortunately, you cannot eat a view. The worst part was the atmosphere; the place looked like a retro 1970s "hip" restaurant that, if you lived in a small town, everyone would say was "the nicest restaurant in town," but in reality, it was an incredibly old, tacky place that felt like it was trying too hard. They have no excuse to have colored, worn-out chairs with neon plastic decors. Now, since it is a restaurant, let's talk about the food. The salmon was effectively raw in the center despite it taking a long time, the house bread tasted store-bought and cold, and everything else just felt incredible mid.The service was not great either. We ordered a drink, and it arrived an hour later (still before our food, but an HOUR to make a salmon and steak?). We went at 4pm, so there were no excuses for the slow service; the place was empty.There was absolutely nothing notable or remarkable about this place, past the view that you can see on every other floor."

Stone Park Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 • $$

"One of the best restaurants I've been to in a long, long time. Coming from California and being a super smeller I'm quite particular on eating establishments. Stone Park brought the service in line with the fresh incredible meal next, amazing atmosphere and again did I mention the service! Wow! Just Wow."

Vida Verde - Tequila Bar

★★★★☆ 4.2 • $$

"Vida Verde is a lively restaurant serving Mexican cuisine and pretty cocktails. They have colorful decorations, rooftop seating, bottomless brunch on weekends, Taco Tuesdays, and occasional live music.Try the trio of guacamole, which includes three different types of guacamole: guacamole with pomegranate seeds, mango, and jicama. Weird combinations, but they somehow work. Of course, try their cocktails. The tacos are delicious - I've tried pollo, al pastor, and carnitas. They were all super delicious. Not sure what else to say - Overall, it's quite appealing, so 4 stars."

Carroll Place
