Dutch Freds

Amazing burgers and sauce AMAZING fries! Nice ambiance and decent service Worth a shot

I came here on a Wednesday night. I tried to call to make a reservation, but they don't take reservations over the phone so you have to book through the Resy app and have to leave a credit card in case of cancellation. Cancellation fee of $20/person for dinner which is a little steep but apparently up to the restaurant's discretion. They don't provide menus and only use a QR code which some of my party could not get onto and eventually got physical menus.They do have a great wine down Wednesday special including $10 wines!We ordered the pork belly bao buns as an appetizer. Only three in an order. A lot more bread than meat but still tasty.I really wanted the chopped kale salad but you can't add a protein to it so I got the steak and beet salad. The portion is smaller than expected but it was very good. You can't ask for the steak to be cooked a certain way (ex: med rare, med, well etc) but it was fine. It was a decent meal close to Times Square and the theaters.

We arrived a little before our 5:30 reservation and were seated immediately. When we got in, it was relatively slow, a lot of open tables. Our waitress was very nice and took our drink and appetizer order and disappeared for a while. When the app eventually came, she didn't stop to ask if we wanted to place a meal order and we didn't see her again for a solid 20 minutes. We had to flag her down to ask to order and she thought she'd already taken it. By now it was starting to get busy and we waited far longer than we should have needed to to get our food. The waitress was kind, but seemed a bit scattered. People who showed up after us got served before us and it was incredibly frustrating. The food was delicious and the ambiance was lovely, but as a whole the experience was rather lackluster.

Dutch Fred's was a favorite a few years ago, but I recently stopped by Dutch Fred's for brunch and it was a 3.5 star experience. The atmosphere was still cozy and inviting, with a warm decor, but the food wasn't as great as I recall it to be.Our server was friendly and attentive, taking the time to answer our questions about the menu and making solid recommendations.Speaking of the menu, the cocktail options were tasty, balanced by a menu full of sweet and savory dishes. I opted for the chicken waffles, which was a little bland.The main reason I didn't give Dutch Fred's a full 5 stars is that the food, while delicious, wasn't particularly memorable or standout given all the newer brunch places in the city. Overall, Dutch Fred's is a great choice for a low-key, satisfying brunch.

Visited to have a bite to eat for a friend's birthday. We were a party of nine and had made a reservation for a table however it was a bar top with seating for six and they stuck extra stools in there. This was an issue to begin with but more so since there were some larger people and we just physically could not fit and have plates to eat. They told us they didn't have another table and just pulled it from the wall and added barstools to each end which still wasn't enough but to make up for it they served us all terrible fruity shots. Thankfully the guacamole for the table was very good and my steak sandwich, which came rare instead of medium rare, was good although overpriced at $27. My old-fashioned had too much orange. I had heard really good things about this place but was disappointed with my visit.

really cool cocktail bar just off broadway! innovative and expansive selection with knowledgeable bartenders. the food was a little expensive for what was on offer but the cocktails are what you're really there for. will definitely be recommending

We were a group of six ladies getting something to eat before a show. We weren't really there for drinks, but two of us got the old-fashioned. I have to have a fancy cherry in my old-fashioned. I was surprised it didn't come with one and I asked the waitress about it. She returned with an abundance of cherries for me. It made my night. We ordered a bunch of things to share and everything was good. Happy everything was the eggplant ! The best part of this place is the vibe. Such good energy. It's definitely a place to go for good drinks and great company.

I've been to this bar over 50 times, and it never disappoints! I LOVE the kinky boots and parmesan fries. It's ALWAYS happenin' here, no matter the day or time!

Hanging out in New York City for my (at the time) girlfriend's birthday and we are always on the hunt for bottomless mimosas in the best city in the world! So we did our usual Yelp due-diligence ultimately finding... Dutch Fred's. Here's how it went!Atmosphere/Appearance: We came here with our friend Aaron who's always down for action so we made reservations which were promptly honored when we arrived. The restaurant is in a more elongated setting like a lot of big city establishments are. It's difficult to describe decor here, but I would say, "modern tavern" is what it felt like. Tile floors, a generic ceiling, some wood paneling and a single row of lights illuminates the entire restaurant, but not too brightly. The left side of the interior is the bar rail with booths and other tabletop seating sprinkled throughout.Service: I couldn't tell you who took care of me this time, but I'm sure if I had an issue I would've remembered. I know she was a lot of fun.Food: I mmmeeeaaannn... do we really care about the food is the mimosas are flowing? The short answer is yes, but the long answer is the more mimosas you have the less you care. Lol. However, the Breakfast Flatbread was delightful. I needed the carbs so it's a flatbread consisting of a mozzarella/cheddar cheese mix, chorizo, sausage, caramelized onions, red pepper and topped with 2 sunny-side-up eggs. I ain't want my pizza THAT messy so I swapped the sunny-side-up action for some scrambled eggs. Like I said, delightful, filling and flavorful. The mimosas were on point and no too juicy at all. The Dutch's Punch was actually pretty refreshing as well.Value: It's New York City, but peep game... $30.00 gets you unlimited mimosas, bloody marys and Dutch's Punches for "90 minutes". However, you do need to purchase an entree so you're probably looking at around $70.00 max out the door per person including taxes and tip. Not terrible in the grand scheme of what you get!In conclusion, I loved this place and had a great time hanging out here! I look forward to paying this place another visit in the near future!

Looking for some place to relax and eat in between Broadway shows, we came across Dutch Freds on a quiet street off of 8th Avenue.They had a bunch of outdoor seating which we took advantage of on a lovely day..They had a nice selection of beers and cocktails as well as food items The fried chicken sandwich was delicious, well cooked and juicy with a great spicy mayo and the sweet potato fries were also great.The burger, while a touch overcooked, had great flavor and the fries were wonderful.The staff was so welcoming and friendly. It was the perfect spot to enjoy a relaxed dinner with some very good food.
