Where to eat: the 50 best restaurants in Bronx

I've heard so much about this restaurant. I dined here on a weekday after 8pm. It wasn't crowded. The ambiance was chill, other than the boisterous lady at the bar who appeared to be in intoxicated. Upon entering the waitress gave us the option of a bar seat or table. We selected a table, but it was too cold where the tables are (in the back of the restaurant). So we elected to sit at the bar. The decor very impressive!! Service was great. The bartender was very attentive. She also was great when ordering, she was able to give us a few good selections on the menu. The food wasn't as impressive as the decor. The food was OK. I would definitely dine here again to try other selections on the menu. Give them a try!

Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3 stars) I had a mixed experience at this restaurant, primarily due to some food issues and less-than-stellar service. We were seated promptly and had ample time to review the menu. However, the service quickly became overwhelming. The waitstaff frequently approached us, almost rushing us, and came over right as we finished our last bites to ask if we wanted the check. It felt like they were anticipating a large table and wanted us to clear out. Considering that a large group beside us was moved to the bar and staff were rapidly rearranging tables around us, I’m unsure why we were seated just 30 minutes before their arrival when there were plenty of other available tables. Regarding the food, we both ordered the NUEVAyol drink, which was decent but not worth the $17 price tag. The chicken and waffles were enjoyable, although the chicken itself was unseasoned; only the breading had flavor, and unfortunately, some parts of it were burnt. The steak and eggs, however, were disappointing. I ordered the steak medium-rare, but it arrived well done, with crispy edges and essentially folded in half from overcooking. Additionally, I was disappointed to see an automatic 18% gratuity added to our bill for just two people. I understand this might be standard for larger parties, but it felt excessive in this case. I certainly wouldn’t have tipped $15 for the rushed service we received. On a positive note, the atmosphere was delightful. A live DJ played Hip Hop tracks, and the decor featured nice art along with a faux speaker wall, which contributed to a vibrant vibe!

First off walking into this place was dope and had great vibes. Ordered my food and while waiting I decided to order a drink which was extremely great. I patiently waited about 25 minutes before the food came out. Got my order walked out and drove home. As I got home opened my tray I noticed right away the undercooked pernil (roast pork) with Slimy rice I was in shock. No way I was going to drive another half hour in traffic to get something else. Pernil looked as it was boiled in water and not roasted. The rice was undercooked as well as the semi solid chopped carrots and beans. Definitely not what I expected from this gorgeous place.

We celebrated a birthday. They were very accommodating for our large party! The vibe was a vibe! The food was okay and unlimited Mimosa/Sangria, she kept them coming! Most of all it’s a great place to celebrate!

The food and drinks are amazing, BUT for $50 to $100 it would be great to be able to have a conversation with friends without the music being so loud like a night club, it’s so unfortunate. The volume literally impacts your eardrums. The marketing strategy of having a “Sunday Party” being the excuse only makes it more disappointing since it’s intentional.

It was ok. The food was good, the service not so much. Our waitress rarely came to see us after taking our order. Automatic 18% gratuity. Also, the music is so loud. Makes you feel like you're at a club instead of a restaurant.

This is a great place for music! The DJ is awesome! The reason I gave it 4 stars is because, you cannot have a conversation or hear your waitstaff. The food is good. Personally I like my collard greens simmered and tender. These were undercooked. Catfish was good. Wings were crispy and delicious. Rib’s were good. Sangria was great! Overall it is an experience if it’s your first time. We had the preset menu for our group of 8. I’m sure this place would be great later in the evening! The DJ knows how to mix it up!!!!!

Just ordered takeout from Charlie’s, and I have to say, I’m very disappointed. I’m not sure if there’s been a change in ownership, but the food quality has dropped significantly. I ordered Charlie’s Chicken Burger and fried chicken—both used to be my favorites. Previously, the burger came with coleslaw, an egg, and deliciously seasoned chicken. This time, the chicken burger was burnt, tasted awful, and looked like cafeteria food. It was honestly the worst chicken burger I’ve ever had. The fried chicken was also severely burnt and had a terrible taste. To make things worse, the food was overpriced. The only reason I didn’t return it was that I didn’t see how bad it was until I got home. This experience was extremely disappointing.

Charlie’s Bar & Kitchen is a beautiful spot, stylish but comfortable, with a real sense of character. The staff was excellent: friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. I had a BLT, which was solid and hit the spot. The cocktails were well-made and clearly crafted with care. It’s the kind of place that feels like a local favorite and a destination at the same time. Definitely planning to come back.

Charlie's Bar + Kitchen is a beautiful restaurant with a western menu. They offer an array of handcrafted cocktails in a rustic yet contemporary setting with eclectic art pieces. Overall, the service and food is good. It's a great edition to The Bronx and what the eating scene has to offer. Check their website or socials for happy hours and live performances. It's a great spot for a Saturday with a small group of friends in the mood for comfort food and fun.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Food, Great Vibes & Top-Tier Service! Charlie’s Bar and Kitchen is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of good energy. The food is incredible—every dish is packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The drinks? Top-notch, expertly crafted, and always on point. The service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Whether you’re here for a casual dinner, drinks with friends, or a night out, Charlie’s delivers on all fronts. Definitely a must-visit spot, and I’ll be coming back for more! Highly recommend! 🍽️🍹🔥 #CharliesBarAndKitchen #5StarExperience #GreatFoodGreatVibes #MustVisitSpot #FoodieApproved

The food was mediocre and overpriced. The place was very noisy and crowded. The waitresses could have used more help, they were very nice and professional. It was over 40+ yrs I been in this neighborhood which is now surrounded by many restaurants and condominiums not far from the third avenue bridge. The place was at one time called Piano Factory, which till this day it is still called. We waited over an hour to have our food served.

The hummus appetizer was a standout start to the meal — simple, fresh, and absolutely satisfying. The hummus is homemade and the flavors are perfectly balanced. And it comes with cucumbers, pickled onions, olives, feta, tabbouleh, and warm pita. I added grilled chicken as well. It's a huge portion, perfect for sharing or as your main entrée.

No A/C. A lot of mixed messages that were unclear. Came for a qtpoc event, and the menu was reduced to 5 items than what was online / here, even my Bruschetta was supposed to have sprinkled meat on it, and it wasn’t, and I asked for a non alcoholic drink, and he was trying to flood me with alcohol. They try to pressure you to get a food / drink combo for $40 rather than allowing us to buy individually. Drinks start at $12, over average. Gender neutral bathrooms, accessible entrance ramp, but lack of transparency.

Its my first time coming here and it won't be my last. Love the food. I got the chiles rellenos and I was hooked. Really welcoming place!

Great meal and really friendly, welcoming service. Love what the restaurant stands for as well.

Can I go against the grain here and say it’s kind of overpriced? The prices aren’t what the menu says and the vegan food is very stingy. Also, heads up, in spite of the credit card signs it’s cash only. Yes, the food is good. Yes. The lady is wonderful. But still, overpriced for you’re getting.

Delicious food, had al pastor tacos, white mole, and vegetable enchiladas. Really flavorful bites of food. As a Korean the white mole was a bit difficult for me to wrap my head around, since we make a dish similar to this but with totally different flavor. The horchata was fresh made (I don’t know how that is possible, but it was good), and limonata great as well. I came after watching Taco Chronicles on Netflix. The famed vegan squash flower tacos were not yet available as it is seasonal and they will appear roughly end of June through September. Can’t wait to come back and try those. Not the most modern dining area, very local feel which was appropriate of course, but I do wish a bit more attention was paid to interior, but like I said, great food and great service. Well worth checking out!

Great place to eat real and traditional Mexican food. The owner and her staff are great people. The make you feel welcome from the time you step in. Keep up the great work and thank you

Excellent food—fantastic mole!—nearly everything is gluten free, and the agua frescas were delicious as well. Even simple items like the rice and beans were very nicely done. Great service. Not a fancy interior, but very clean and the food is sooooooooooo good.

This place is awesome. It’s a small hidden gem in the Bronx. It’s a family owned restaurant and it’s delicious authentic Mexican cuisine. They deserve their Michelin recommendation. They make their own mole sauce which is very hard to find. I love this small local restaurant. The food is delicious and I felt like I was in Mexico while eating here.

It was a beautiful Saturday, so I decided to trek up to the Bronx to finally try the much-hyped Lechonera La Piraña—and OMG, I can’t believe it’s taken me this long. Yes, be prepared to wait. I showed up at 12:30 and there was already a line. Service started around 1pm and it does move slow. But it’s definitely worth it. Once it’s your turn, the very friendly chef is just so much fun—chatty and giving you tastes as he prepares your meal. And it is a serious meal. He packed so much pork, crackling, octopus, shrimp, and rice into the box it about put me into a food coma. But it was good—the pork super tender, the crackling some of the crispiest I’ve had. All the seafood was fresh and delicious, and the rice super flavorful. Not the healthiest of meals, but such a great weekend outing for a flavor-packed lunch. I’ll be back!

Great atmosphere, got there and the smell in air was organically bueno! Waiting on the line was awesome with the small little live music (salsa) The portion were small and price was high...$25 for a lil bit of arroz con gandules, a few chunks of pork, 2x2 piece of pork skin yummy flavor tho, one entire bland green banana and a minuscule portion of octopus salad...the Mojito was the bestest part .. of which was much need to make the dry pieces edible....Love loved everything else.. vibe was on point 😄

I saw this on Instagram and had to visit since I originally came from this neighborhood. I gave it a 3 for food just because I never had the chance to taste anything other than the pork since it all ran out. Here's my disappointment. I arrived at 1:30 and was on line for 5 hours only to finally make it to the front, and he ran out of everything. He had 2 more pieces of pork cooking and said they'd be ready in 1 more hour, so I waited. That took 2 additional hours, so in total, I waited 7 hours to only receive pork. He charged me 20.00 which I thought was unfair due to the fact that it wasn't a full serving because he had to spread it with the others left on line and also no other food sides were available because he ran out of everything. I feel after waiting so many hours we should've been given the small portion of pork for 10.00, since, as I mentioned, it was a very small serving. On the positive note, Angel is super cool, funny, charismatic, and full of energy. I don't know how he does it all all day by himself. The pork skin was excellent and crispy, and the garlic sauce had my breath smelling like garlic for days. It was delicious. It was an experience to be around my people, but I will not go back. it's too long of a wait. I left by 8 pm with my little foam container of pork.

I stood on the line from 2:30-5:45 and this is what I got for 20.00 not worth the 20.00 no rice left no bananas left nothing left but pencil and it was not worth 20.00 I will never go again not worth it. Not to mention the potion was horrible .

Let’s just say when you’re here, you’re familia ! 10/10 experience . Owner is in this just for the love of the game tbh . We went after a Yankees game so they were just wrapping up. I can only imagine what the foods like when I get there first thing in the morning . Shoutout to the owner

Lechonera La Piraña is incredible! The lechon is crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor — easily some of the best in the city. The portions are huge, the sides are delicious, and everything tastes homemade. The vibe is chill and full of good energy, and the people are super friendly. Real deal Puerto Rican food that never disappoints

I waited for a long time to eat there...came from FAR away just to try out his PR cuisine. The smell in the air upon arrival was awesome, the environment was fun of which the 3 hour wait in line favorable. However, the food was below standards...the pork (pernil) was flavorless and dry. The arroz con gandulez was hard....I won't go back again

A friend had recommended this place and so we tried it. It’s definitely a no-frills kind of environment so you definitely don’t go for the service. They are very fast and efficient but it feels more of an effort to flip the table. We sat downstairs, but there’s also a large area upstairs that had seating and was a lot quieter. The dishes are HUGE and 2-3 people could split a main dish with the portion sizes. The chicken Parmesan hit the spot and I’d come back for that alone. We also tried the stuffed artichoke, but it wasn’t great.

Family the minute you walk in. It was amazing they looked and talked to me like a brother. Felt right at home and I'm Dominican 🇩🇴. Loved it ....did I mention the food....fohgetabboutit!!!!!! Picture you here! CASH ONLY $ CASH ONLY $ CASH ONLY $

Hidden gem in the Bronx. Great prices, great food, fast service, large portions. Only negative is that it is cash only.

My father took me here 50 years ago. They wrote the menu on a paper bag and hung it on the wall. They have a menu now for those who need it. Great southern Italian food at reasonable prices. They use san marzano tomatoes and extra virgin olive oil which are the highest quality ingredients. I highly recommend a visit.

Cozy family style restaurant serving authentic southern Italian cuisine. Started in 1962, this place is where people come from near and far, the owner Charlie greets all customers warmly with a pleasant smile! If you are looking for a family style comfort food experience this is your go to place!

visiting from seattle...we walked in after a yankees game and were immediately greeted and sat. all staff members were very nice and attentive; they treat you like family. food was delicious--we tried the eggplant rollatini, stuffed artichoke, and a chicken dish i can't remember...also my drink was perfectly mixed. i will be back!

We were here for my sons birthday on Sunday, party of 5. My family and I have been coming here for over 40 years, food is consistently GREAT!!!, service the same and Charlie, the owner, makes you feel like family. If you are looking for the best southern Italian food, you owe it to yourself to try Dominics. You won't be disappointed.

I rarely give 5 stars, but the food was amazing, service was attentive, prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere was warm. The bread was fresh and very soft. The sausage Rotini Rugantini was creamy and heavenly. Chicken pharm pizza was absolutely delicious. Fried calamari was crispy. Tiramisu was light and not too sweet (which can be shared with 2-3 people). Restrooms are clean. Wait time for seats were reasonable. Relaxed family environment. Credit cards accepted. Parking may be difficult. The food was amazing! I would come back.

Fantastic experience. I made a reservation for 14 of us - easy! Called to reconfirm a week prior - confirmed, easy! The staff was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and just all around super! We had a blast for my husband's 40th celebration and couldn't recommend more!

Food was amazing. Highly recommend the garlic knots parm style and Chicken Parm Ala Vodka! However, I do wish they gave more pasta with the dishes. Finished the pasta in a few scoops, seemed smaller than a kids order.

It was VERY VERY GOOD. I had chicken parm … succulent tasty hearty. I didn’t eat the pasta, I was too full. The broccoli was really good too—firm and tasty. The cheesy bread 🤩 I asked for A scoop of gelato but got a nice portion, which I happily ate. The cannoli was okay— a lil too much cream. It was dimly lit which complemented the old school music so the vibes were nostalgic. Most importantly the staff was accommodating and genuinely nice. #Fonz I’d return … sooner than later! You should too. Google was right! 😉

I ate here after walking around the zoo, and it was worth the wait. Delicious arancini. Lasagna was very good, although different than what I’m used to. It didn’t have multiple layers of noodles, but the meat and ricotta and sauce was perfect. Enjoyed a glass of wine and the fresh bread and the atmosphere. The service is very friendly and energetic. I’m glad I found this restaurant.

Excellent food and atmosphere. The staff were so kind and funny 🙏🏽 thank you for my lovely experience.

The food was subpar. Maybe they had their third string team in the kitchen but it was nowhere near the 4.6 rating it currently has. The mozzarella caprese and straciatella apps were good but unremarkable. The chocolate cake was the best course of the meal. I sent back the chicken quattro formaggio entree- the ingredients were conceptually amazing but did not come together. The gravy was equivalent to a jarred sauce. I next ordered gluten free penne with broccoli rabe. The broccoli rabe was fresh but the garlic-olive oil sauce was watery and the penne was Barilla gluten free quality (falls apart.) The service was friendly but doesn't seem like anyone is showing them the ropes. The cost of the meal is not proportional to the presentation and quality.

🚨🍕Pizza Alert! 🍕🚨 This place is absolute fire!!! 🔥🔥🔥 Let me tell you, the crust is perfection 🤤, the sauce is out of this world 🤤, the cheese is so melty and delicious, and the sausage… omg 🤤. Just perfection in every bite. The calzone? Hands down, the BEST I’ve ever had in my life 🥖🔥. I honestly can't believe I waited this long to discover this gem. From the moment you walk in, you feel like family. It's that warm, cozy, “Mom-and-Pop” vibe that makes you want to stay forever. The pizza is so good, I couldn't stop eating—even when I was full! 😅 And if you know me, you know I eat pizza ALL the time. This spot has officially topped every other place I’ve ever been. 🍕💯 The staff is amazing, too. Even when they’re busy, they greet you with a smile and the best attitude. 😊 Seriously, don’t wait—get here NOW. Like, right now! You won't regret it! 😍

Yes it’s always in the “top 10 best pizza in NYC” lists — and it’s great. But it’s not worth a trip from more than a borough away. We had the margarita (which has great mozzarella and a very bright vibrant red sauce) and a very good sausage pie (the fennel sausage is great!).

Classic Bronx pizza! Long standing, popular pizza parlor is cozy and inviting. Delicious regular pie and broccoli rabe calzone. Cash only, street parking.

I’ve had their famous sausage pie before and it was great. However, it totally failed to live up to the hype today. Ordered a sausage slice and it literally looked like sausage there’s thrown on the slice. No care in presentation whatsoever.

Was told by so many people that this was the spot to go visit. I finally went ahead and listened and pay them a visit, I went with the family and ordered 2 large pies one just cheese that was for my kids and one cheese and sausage that was my wife and I. I must say we got our first pizza which was the cheese pizza large (the kids pizza ) and I was so disappointed in how burned the underneath was I mean my kids started eating and immediately started making weird faces there mom and I asked what’s wrong they replied this thing is super burned at first we were like no way it’s fine just eat it but then we decided to try it and were absolutely stunned on how charred it was underneath I mean I had coal fire pizza before but this was definitely left unattended for a while then served it was super burned. We were very angry that the kids had to go through that but we’re also not the type of people to complain at the moment just to avoid any animosity nor any smart remarks on behalf of the staff. We then received our second pie and that was much better I even had to stop eating my portion which was half the pie that had cheese to offer it to my kids cause they were very hungry there mom had her side which was the sausage side and finished hers. All I’m saying is that if you’re going to visit this location tell then from the very beginning not to burn the pizza or leave it too long cause you will not enjoy it. This fits as a learning lesson through our process it sucks cause we were really looking forward to this but hey it’s ok maybe next time. Take care folks and enjoy just be sure to mention not to burn the pie and you should be good.

The sausage pizza is delicious 😋 like. I want a pie of it now.

I drove over 30 minutes to Louie & Ernie’s Pizza in the Bronx after reading tons of glowing reviews—and I truly wish I hadn’t wasted my time or money. I ordered an extra-large pizza with extra sauce, extra cheese, and half garlic, sausage, and pepperoni. The smell in my car on the ride home had me hopeful, but that’s where the excitement ended. For a whopping $46.00, I expected something special. That’s well above the average price for even a loaded XL pizza in the city, and honestly? I can’t imagine how bland and dry it would’ve been without the “extra” sauce and cheese I paid for—probably like eating a matzo cracker with toppings. And even with the extras, it was still dry, the cheese was sparse, and parts of the crust were burnt to a crisp. The sauce lacked any depth—no basil, no salt, just a plain, uninspired tomato base that brought nothing to the table. Totally underwhelming. Oh, and be aware—cash only, which just adds another layer of hassle in this day and age. Deluso decisamente. Save your money and your gas—this one’s all hype, no heart

I am writing to express my disappointment with my recent order. As a regular customer who has always enjoyed bringing clients to your establishment, I was looking forward to another great experience. Unfortunately, this time I was left very disappointed. I expected better. This was my first time ordering delivery, and it was a disaster. After waiting for 1 hour and 15 minutes, I received a cold pizza and a cold croquette. When I asked the delivery driver to take the cold order back, I was told to call the restaurant. Upon calling, I was informed that a new pizza would be made, but it would take another thirty minutes. The interaction over the phone further solidified my decision to no longer patronize this establishment. I will be sharing my negative experience with others and no longer believe the hype surrounding this restaurant. It is evident that many of the positive reviews are likely written by family and friends. Additionally, I would appreciate it if management could review the quality and condition of both the first pizza and the second pizza delivered. This might help in understanding the issues and improving the service for future customers.

Don’t mean to be a tough critic but just not at all impressed with the food here. I’ve tried a few times from pasta to pizza but nothing on the menu hits unfortunately. Despite this, still a very busy and active place. Food looks a little better than it tastes. Also very tight dining area. Both wine glasses I had were somewhat dirty. Very limited street parking.

This place is super family friendly. The service is amazing and the food is beyond amazing. Always love coming to this spot in the Bronx. You guys rock 🤘🏽. Keep up the good work.

Burger was burnt on one side and tasted like burned manure, and had American cheese instead of cheddar. Waiter argued with me and refused to fix the errors. Would not even look at the burger. Said it was not possible to cook a burger on the grill without blackening it, which was not even the problem. Insisted the slices of Kraft American cheese on my burger were cheddar and said some ridiculous garbage about cooking burgers for 30 years. Learn how to cook a burger and what cheddar cheese is. Also gets extremely loud and they will not turn down music, cannot hear other people at the table sometimes even when they are yelling.

I frequently eat here, so I decided to stop by the bar for a few drinks and a light dinner. The food was just as good as always, but the service was nearly nonexistent aside from Steven. After sitting at the bar, I had to request service from the female bartender because she never approached or acknowledged us. We stayed for about 2.5 hours (8:00 to 10:45 p.m.), and not once did she check if we needed anything. Meanwhile, Steven who was moving between the dining room and the bar was consistently attentive, professional, and clearly the only one prepared to serve. It honestly felt like nobody cared except him. The bartender spent most of the night on her phone and barely paid attention to the roughly 12 guests at the bar unless someone flagged her down. It was one of the worst service experiences I’ve ever had at a small restaurant, which is surprising given this place’s great reputation in the neighborhood. I would’ve liked to speak with a manager, but there didn’t seem to be one present. It almost felt like the bartender relied on Steven’s work ethic to carry the entire shif

Tonight I dined at Patricia’s for the 2nd time and I’m never disappointed. The owners/managers greeted me and my party immediately, got us a high chair for my 1 year old. The food was amazing and the portions are very good! The dessert was fantastic! Our server (forgot his name but he had cornrows) was very friendly and prompt. 10/10!!

Patricia’s of Morris Park is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever dined in. Everything was perfect from the wait staff to the food. We shared calamari as an appetizer. My main dish was the veal parmigiana with a side of pasta. Delicioso! The portions are huge. I brought home half of my entree as well as the pasta. We had cappuccino and complimentary biscotti, which was very generous. Our server Maria was wonderful in every way, and the atmosphere is authentically Italian. When in the Bronx, it’s a must to patronize.

The restaurant has a spacious interior with brick walls and very high ceilings in one room, giving it a rustic, industrial charm. The design makes it feel like a converted factory, adding to its unique character. The portions were generous, and the flavors were rich. However, our dishes had more oil than we preferred—hopefully, it was olive oil rather than canola oil. Despite this, the dishes were still enjoyable. The service was friendly, though we had to wait about 20 minutes for a table.

A fun, casual and delicious lunch. The place was full for a Thursday afternoon and the waitstaff were fantastic! Attentive without being overbearing. The food was good. Not the best I have had, but tasty pasta and good and simple arugula salad. The broccoli rabe had all the great taste, but was more well-cooked than I prefer. Tiramisu was lovely. I'm a lifelong New Yorker, but it was my first time on Arthur Avenue, but definitely not my last. I would definitely come back to try out their pizza.

Super dreamy restaurant and great service from all the staff, food is fresh and although it was really warm we were comfortable. We got the chicken breast,broccoli rabe and broccoli rabe pasta, the meatballs and the steak! All of it was delicious and worth the price. The super fruit cosmo martini was delicious.

We had a really good experience at this place. We called to book a table and the staff was very friendly. Our food was delicious and the service was super efficient. The place is also quiet, they play music in the background but it’s not loud.

Took the family out for lunch here and we were really happy with the service and atmosphere inside the restaurant. We ordered the baked ziti and I was feeling brave and always wanted to try the pasta with squid ink sauce and so this place finally had it! I’m happy to say I tried it, but honestly I think I prefer the red. The calamari in the pasta was good though!

I went some people on trip for Ferragosto Italian festival. It was my time at Zero Otto Nove. The people I was with eat here every year. I liked the ambiance of the restaurant. The food was sort of a disappointment. I ordered the Cacio Pepe, a dish I've always wanted to try. Someone else at the table ordered it also. It was missing the black pepper that's supposed to be part of the dish, we had to ask for pepper to be put on the dish. Of the two wait staff we had only one had a smile on his face. For dessert I tried the Profiterole. Which had nice sweet taste, filled with a nice tasting custard. I don't know if I would return to this restaurant, if I did I would try it when there isn't a festival going on.

The food is a strong no, maybe I am not a fan of Asian food, but some of their dishes are definitely in need of a review. Our waiter is definitely an icon in the business, waitress, bartender and answering the phone, true champ

This Bronx pub surprised us! Me and my friend were looking for something different from the usual fast-foods you can see in The Bronx and with a focused research we encountered this place. How could we know it was THIS good?? Starting from the atmosphere on the inside you feel like at home, on the road and in the subway. What's better? We ordered an appetizer: buffalo wings with two different sauces and some kind of potatoes you can find at ALDI too (but that's the only not good thing about it). We then ordered two hamburgers and they were not great... they were excellent! Never ever had something as good as that. A solid orgasm. Go there, thank me later.

Alehouse is a great spot! Their wings are really good, and the mac and cheese is definitely worth trying. They have a solid selection of beers and cocktails, and the service is always friendly and attentive. I also like that they have darts — it adds a fun touch to the atmosphere. Overall, a great place to hang out, grab some food, and enjoy a drink!

Went for the happy hour initially but I was really hungry so it wasn’t really worth it for me to do the small bites. I got the Thai chili and mango habanero wings. They were cooked well and I liked the flavors I had. The truffle parm fries were fresh and very well seasoned. I had the pink lemonade sour beer, the taste was great. They offered me a sample first to try. While the taste was great the beer was lukewarm so I recommend asking for a chilled glass. Wayyy better. They also have a beer club that’s free which I thought was cool, special deals on Wednesday for members. I put 4 stars for the atmosphere because it was really hot in there since there was no A/C.

I have to say hands the level of service was superb along with my burger! The guard was friendly and willing to bring out a menu. All the staff was on point from water with lemon to napkins. It was very busy as well so kudos to the team. My burger was delicious very juicy.

Nicole was amazing, her personality and energy made it super easy to get along with. The food was great, I big backed and crawled home 😂

I read somewhere this place was dog friendly. I went, service was great, even gave my dog a water bowl. Invited some friends to show them a second time, everything was fine. 3rd time I was told only outside. Looked at the prices and thought it was too expensive to not be comfortable. Good spot, just need to remove themselves from the dog friendly listings. Really wanted those wings.

The most aggressive waitress i ever seen she keeps shouting and rushing to make orders also there is other waitress was nice but i am talking the lady mid 40’s i guess which was serving our table with my date she was so annoying i really regret leaving tips. Other wise i like the place and vibes

We had such a lovely time at The Lounge at Le Bernardin. We couldn't get a table at the main restaurant as this was a last minute trip to New York unfortunately. The food at the lounge was still outstanding — the skate dish in particular was absolutely perfect, delicate and full of flavor, showcasing the precision and finesse the restaurant is known for. What truly stood out, though, was the kindness of the team. Even though our son’s birthday is still a month away, they went out of their way to celebrate him and make him feel special. That thoughtful gesture meant the world to us and turned a wonderful meal into a beautiful family memory. Thank you to everyone at Le Bernardin for such a warm and memorable experience — we’ll treasure it and can’t wait to return! We'll make sur to make a reservation ahead next time to try the main restaurant.

Le Bernardin is an exceptional French fine dining restaurant where Chef Eric Ripert’s refined seafood creations truly shine. Despite its Michelin-star prestige, the atmosphere feels relaxed and welcoming — even our young child felt completely at ease and enjoyed the experience. The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond, pampering us with thoughtful attention and perfectly timed food and drink service. We chose the three-course prix fixe menu, and every dish was beautifully executed. The appetizer trio offered fresh, flavorful bites of seafood. The bread assortment was among the best we’ve ever had — warm, varied, and perfectly baked. For our main courses, the lobster in a rich, aromatic broth and the steamed Halibut with baby vegetables were both outstanding — truly the best halibut we’ve ever tasted. Desserts, including a decadent chocolate tart and an assortment of small bites, provided the perfect sweet ending to a memorable meal. Overall, Le Bernardin delivers an extraordinary dining experience — refined yet approachable, luxurious yet comfortable. We’ll definitely return every time we’re in New York.

Every single dish was amazing! Too many courses that I lost count. I wish it was proper to ask for a whole 8" plate of their tiny portions, but that would be weird and waaay out of our budget. Cocktails are perfect. Left full & satisfied. Service is as-expected for the type of establishment. Interior and decor are a bit dated and dark. It is well-maintained and clean which is what matters most. Overall, we would love to visit again.

Le Bernardin continues to justify its legendary status as one of New York City’s finest dining establishments. Our recent prix fixe lunch experience reaffirmed why this restaurant has maintained its position at the pinnacle of seafood cuisine for decades. From the moment we were seated the service struck the perfect balance between attentive and unobtrusive. Every member of the staff demonstrated genuine warmth and deep knowledge of the menu. Our sommelier deserves special recognition and his wine recommendations were impeccably matched to our dish selections, elevating each course and creating harmonious pairings throughout the meal. The culinary journey itself was extraordinary. The opening amuse-bouches set an elegant tone with refined, delicate flavors that showcased the kitchen’s precision. The caviar service was presented with theatrical flair, accompanied by perfectly executed blinis and traditional accompaniments. The raw fish course demonstrated the restaurant’s mastery of preservation techniques—silky, perfectly seasoned, and visually stunning. The main course was a masterclass in technique: impeccably cooked fish adorned with toasted almonds, vibrant vegetables, and a sauce that brought everything together without overwhelming the star ingredient. Each element on the plate had purpose and demonstrated the kitchen’s respect for premium ingredients. Le Bernardin’s continued excellence isn’t just about maintaining standards — it’s about evolution while honoring tradition. Chef Eric Ripert’s vision remains as relevant and inspiring today as ever. This is destination dining at its finest, and our lunch was worth every moment. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a world-class seafood experience in New York City.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Date of visit: 8/8/25 Went for our wedding anniversary. Ordered the Chef tasting, we didn't order the wine pairing as we don't drink. All dishes were great especially the Tuna. The best lemonade I've ever tasted. Service was impeccable. As regular New Yorkers, price is steep, maybe eat here once in a lifetime for a very special occasion. If you're traveling to NYC, this is worth a romantic visit. Book a month in advance as slots fill up quick.

It can be tough to get a reservation here, but it's definitely worth the effort! I recommend calculating how far out you can make it and being ready to try as soon as availability opens up online. It's also worth noting that you can do their full tasting menu during lunch hours (this is what we did) if you're having trouble getting dinnertime reservations. The food, as expected, is all absolutely fantastic. The tasting menu is a tour of seafood and had some truly standout dishes, including the dover solar almondine and the yellowfin tuna carpaccio. I also really enjoyed the dark chocolate tarte dessert. We did the wine pairing with our meal and the wine was a great variety of some unique vintages that paired perfectly with each course. Be warned that the pours are quite generous (this is not a bad thing by any means but come prepared!) and there is one for each of the eight courses so you will definitely be feeling it by the end.

The Most DISAPPOINTING 3-Star Restaurant in NYC My wife and I have always enjoyed Michelin-starred restaurants and rarely been disappointed — but Le Bernardin fell short, big time! I can’t believe this is a three-Michelin-star restaurant flooded with 5-star reviews. Do people not understand that Expensive ≠ Good!? We dined here on a Friday evening around 5:30 p.m. It was quite busy, but we were still warmly greeted. The atmosphere, however, was loud and cramped — tables are packed tightly, and servers constantly squeeze by with plates, drinks, utensils, and dirty dishes. It was uncomfortable to sit there with so much chaos around us; I felt like I was at Chelsea Market on a Saturday night. 2 out of 5 for atmosphere. The major disappointment was the food. Not a single dish met my expectations for a three-star restaurant. I’ve dined at many 1-, 2-, and 3-star establishments, as well as other top-rated spots, and the food at Le Bernardin tastes like Blue Apron meal kits at best. The dishes lack depth and creativity, with flat, uninspired flavors. You can easily tell the chef assumes that tossing fish, lobster, and caviar into a sauce and slapping on a high price tag will make customers think it’s fine dining. No — what a disappointment! At $500 per person (tax and tip included), this is a total money grab. Don’t come here. The one-star reviews are right — those people actually have taste!

It must have been sold. It was absolutely horrendous from the eggplant and no zucchini starter with cold tomato sauce to the gelatinous mess they called sauce on a pork chop that was billed as double cut that was butterflied open with a spicy sauce of fried tough artichokes and over fried potatoes. The special pear ravioli had no pears five anemic discs of flat pasta with tasteless filling. Only the one glass of Pinot noir was good. I have no idea what has happened here but it was the worst meal ever in The Bronx!!!

Everyone was very friendly and we were seated right on time for our reservation. Our waiter was knowledgeable about the menu both food and wines. My son and I truly enjoyed the night! He got the strip steak special with shishito peppers, pictured below. His meal was outstanding. I got a chicken dish that was plenty good, but wasn't blown away by it.

Very good food and service. Place is on the smallish side, so is a bit tightly packed.

Everything was perfect for the special night dinner. A unique and pleasant dining experience that they bring to the table. 🌙 🍴

Is a kind of expensive restaurant , but is all worthy . I ordered an octopus that was delicious. My boyfriend ordered pasta, he loves pasta. The atmosphere is very cozy and relaxed. We would definitely go back

My wife and I relocated to Charleston SC a few years ago so have not been on Arthur Ave in a while. Having grown up in DA BRONX we are familiar with what the Belmont section has to offer. Although the neighborhood has changed ( and not for the Better) Roberto’s stands out as clearly the best restaurant in the area. We started with a grilled tomato stuffed with buratta which we shared. We then ordered 2 pasta entree and a side of Rabe which was excellent and expertly divided table side. Finally a couple of cappuccino and we each had the Roberto cannoli. We have dined at almost all the restaurants In little Italy Bronx and Roberto remains on top

Above and beyond very to raisnable price. The owner setting looking after his customer. One of the old style kind people

A gem found in the Bronx! I believe the pastrami (got the overstuffed on a Kaiser) is in my top three of the NYC boroughs! The matzah ball soup with noodles and bits of fresh chicken is to die for! Flavorful and lasting taste soup. The pastrami taste and texture is what I call A1 triple stars. Exactly how I've always liked my pastrami! The knish was okay it was good on the inside but tough on the outside. I also wished it was warmer and perhaps, fresher. Almost forgot, coleslaw and pickles were awesome too! This was on a Sunday and it got a bit crowded but not too bad about 12:15pm. Before then it was quite quiet and chill. Service is OUTSTANDING!

Authentic old school Jewish deli serving all the classics. Pastrami, corned beef, best hot dogs, macaroni salad, cucumber salad, half sour pickles plus an extensive menu of entrees. Great stuffed cabbage. It’s expensive ($25-29 for a sandwich) but one sandwich can easily feed 2 people. Besides, having an authentic old school deli meal is priceless.

Nestled within the hilly terrain of the Riverdale neighborhood in the Bronx this restaurant offers delicious kosher offerings. The pastrami was as good as any I tasted, the matzo ball soup had noodles (which was the 1st time I experienced), and the chocolate egg cream made for a complete, delicious lunch. Another thing that is great about this deli was that there is a parking lot around the corner on Johnson Avenue. It maybe out of the way from most parts of the city but if one has a vehicle it's relatively easy to get here.

Last kosher deli in the Bronx. Lasted so long due to its curing process of pastrami and corned beef.. so goooD!!!

The pastrami and corned beef were phenomenal as always. Fast friendly service too.

Ordered 1 roast beef sandwich. Cost was almost $30. I will say it was amongst the best roast beef I’ve ever tried in a sandwich. But it was definitely way overpriced. Two regular size slices of bread filled with generous sized amount of roast beef. The taste of the beef was very very good I will say. What got me was the price. I don’t think it was $30 worth of flavor.

Old school and authentic Jewish deli. The waiters here are all in their 60s. The pastrami was a bit fatty. The matzo ball soup was perfectly good. The pickles are good. They were out of chicken liver. 😤. The can of coke was overpriced. The cabbage roll was very sweet and was not made with rice

Stopped by for a light lunch today with our very little granddaughter. Totally perfect. Linguini with clams, penne vodka and a small order of penne with butter and cheese for our granddaughter. I’d certainly go back.

Had a great lunch here in the middle of the week. I had their fresh mozzarella & prosciutto, meatballs in ricotta with smoked mozzarella, and bread-- all delicious. My friend said the gnocchi was also delicious. The service was good, and the restaurant is pleasant. Recommend.

Really cute restaurant with nice outdoor seating in the middle of little Italy. Next store to an authentic butcher shop. Meals were reasonably priced at under $30. The sangria was great - not too sweet. I had the gluten free penne vodka and it was delicious! All of their pasta dishes can be made gluten free minus those with meatballs. Would definitely recommend.

A cullinan in the rough. Hands-down one of the best Italian restaurants in the Bronx. Excellent service, accessible waitstaff with fresh farm-to-fork ingredients. You must drop by and try their linguine w/ clams and lasagna. The ambiance is warm and cozy ... far from pretentious. A romantic spot with a very affordable wine list.

Nice restaurant, great service. We ordered fried calamari, arancini, capresa salad and linguini Nero. The fried calamari were outstanding, perfectly cooked, very fresh. The arancini also were good. The linguini were okay, nothing spectacular. I will return to try another plates.

Overall, food was fine, place is cozy, service is good. Wouldn't recommend, but wouldn't mind returning in a pinch. 3 stars because the restaurant meets expectations, but did not excel at anything in particular. The Chicken Francese was notably good though not memorable. The service was attentive though not more than expected. If someone said we'll eat here again, I would certainly not say no. But I would try to explore somewhere else first. Pros: Serves food until 11 where most places shut at 10, so for later food on Arthur, this would be my recommendation. Cons: 4 TVs right there upon you while dining. Sports are great, but not while enjoying a family meal.

Let's start saying that I am an italian from the south and I know my food. I have been living in Nyc for several years and this is the only italian restaurant that transports me home. I tried almost everything in the menu (specials included) and everytime I find all the food OUTSTANDING. The quality of the ingredients is superb and the preparation of the dishes is better than so many downtown restaurants. You want a spectacular meal, this is the place. The staff is polite, attentive and doesn't rash you out! In the pics arancine, eggplant parm, octopus, and chocolate cake.

Fantastic food and great vibes. Food was great we had the shakshuka and the moss egg sandwich (out of this 🌎). The coffees were great especially the pistachio latte. And last but not least after a lot of back and forth we picked from the bakery items a delicious curry/scallion cheese croissant and a. Nice buttery pistachio chocolate chip cookie. Can’t wait to return.

Im so happy to write this review. Moss is a delight to go to. Everything is fresh, healthy portions and so delicious. Smooth no bitterness to their coffee, an impressive tea selection and cool beverages. It’s a kosher farm to table eatery filled with an array of food choices to satisfy your palate. I love the kale salad. Some may say it’s slightly overprice, but I see it as I pay the price and receive back so much more. Im happy they are here in Riverdale.

Best casual kosher cafe in NYC (and maybe anywhere). Super fast/convenient to drive from Manhattan with its own parking lot. Dishes are impeccable, fresh and wholesome and service is included. The staff is exceptionally nice (shout out to Marin especially) and manages the crowds impressively.

I have never felt the urge or need to give this place a try, primarily because I did not feel like the invitation extended to me, however I decided to give them a try and let me tell you, the place was nicely laid out, though small. It was neat and clean as well. The latte was superb! The pastries and scones were out of this world delicious and the service was prompt and excellent! I have now been there multiple times and my experience is consistent on all counts. Fresher than StarBucks for sure. If you have not yet given them a try, please do— you will lick your fingers and smack your tongue.

Nestled in the heart of Riverdale, Moss Cafe is not only a haven for coffee and tea enthusiasts but also a culinary gem with a small yet scrumptious menu that showcases the perfect fusion of flavor and elegance. Moss Cafe's commitment to a concise and thoughtfully curated menu is a testament to their dedication to quality over quantity. The small selection of dishes is designed to offer a diverse range of flavors, each crafted with precision and an emphasis on fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Also, their delicious menu of fresh teas blew my mind. I will be coming back soon!

Had only come here to pick up quick coffee/pastries and finally came for lunch (apple scone was one of the best scones I've had in my life). Service is friendly and professional for sure, but not fast. It took 30 minutes from my ordering for me to get my lunch (veggie burger) while my friend's lunch came out in about 15 minutes. That being said, the food was amazing. Her Greek salmon salad was fresh and bountiful. She also had the special homemade ricotta toast with fruit compote which was also delicious! My veggie burger was really, really good, though I wish there was no cilantro in the aioli. I also got the peach muffin which was just okay (also found out after ordering that it was vegan and gluten free), there was barely enough peach to qualify as a peach muffin as it was only sprinkled on the top. I also got a chocolate croissant and a peach almond scone to go for the family. Croissant was decadent and rich. The scone was good, but again, please don't call something "peach" if you are just going to put a few pieces of peach on the top. I'll definitely be back. Coffee is also really delicious, I've had the flat white and the cappuccino.

A lovely cafe with tasty healthy wholesome food, often organic. Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Great coffee. Friendly helpful staff. A true gem in the community!

An Beal Bocht Cafe is a nice hidden gem restaurant! This restaurant gave really homey and cozy vibes. They have traditional Irish brunches like fish and chips, English beans, grilled cheese sandwiches, and sunny side up eggs. But what takes the cake and beats everything are their fries, their home fries are so good! The service here is also very good, the waiters are friendly and informative. The food also comes out pretty quick and they even have live music on the weekends. This place is very festive, and can also get pretty busy and crowded. It’s very old school, traditional, and cozy here! The prices are also decent, you can get meals from around $10-$20! So if you’re in the area, stop by here! The only criticism I have here is that they should just have the name of their restaurant more visibly written, so people can know the name of the place. Price:$10-20💸 Rating: 8.5/10 📝

Honestly had a great time in this bar. I got some wings and fries, and they were good. My experience was great until someone nearby was complaining about the cheesecake. But realistically, who orders cheesecake at a bar?

Awesome spot. Super cozy. Irish breakfast is a must. Lots of meats, to the point they offer ‘half meats’ for about $4 less. Even their “vegetarian” Irish Breakfast is 🤤. One of those businesses that charge you for using your card, so try bringing exact change. Not sure why they don’t give back coins, but just bring the exact change so you don’t have to pay an extra card surcharge or have to wonder why anyone would think it’s ok just to not give you your correct change. One of the best restaurants I’ve eaten from in Riverdale.

À very happy place. Good fun, drinks, friends and live music. Slainte! 🍻🇮🇪💚

What a wonderful restaurant and bar/pub. It's filled floor to ceiling with ambiance. You get very personal service from the amazing staff (sometimes in that uniquely Irish way). The food is better than the traditional basic pub fair. They have a great dinner menu with Shepard's Pie and the lot. Today I had the Chicken sandwich with a side of fries. It was very fresh, and the bread cracked slightly as I bit into it. This is a must for a toasted bread. If you're in the neighborhood, please, please stop by and enjoy An Beal Bocht. They have both indoor and heated outside seating!

Took a trip up to Riverdale for lunch. Met a friend up there who recommended Au Beal Bocht cafe. An absolutely adorable little place. A short walk from the subway.(Up a very steep staircase) Very charming place. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Had to wait a bit for a table. There was a large party in back that I believe took up a lot of the seating this place has. Food was great. We had the traditional Irish breakfast and the omelette special they had. Delicious! Brunch came with a free drink. We got the mimosa. It came in a medium size ball jar! It was yummy and left me with a nice buzz. I totally recommend this place. If you're up in Riverdale or wanting to visit definitely stop here for your meal.

The food was fine but this might be the best bloody Maria I’ve ever had. Super balanced, the right spicy. I might come back here just for one of those 🍹🍹🍹

My friend from work has been coming here for a while & has been trying to get me to join her for a few years. I always told her no because I'm not s sushi eater. Well, I'm glad that I decided to go yesterday during my break between work. There were 6 of us and when we arrived the table was ready and waiting for us. The place is quant. Staff is very pleasant, accommodating and friendly. While inside you don't feel like you're in a business in the south Bronx. My colleagues ordered several different types of sushi rolls. You can get a lunch special with a choice of a starter (several choices of soup or salad) & either a roll or fried rice or noodles. We ordered rock shrimp tempura for the table at $5 we also ordered edamame & tuna bruschetta. I ordered chicken fried rice with a cabbage salad as my starter. The salad was a pretty good amount I was able to share with two who wanted to taste. It was crunchy, tasty and satisfying. I tried the edamame and that was good as well. Salty on the outside, tender on the inside. The rock shrimp appetizer was sooo good. It was spicy, but with noisy the right amount of spice. My fried rice was a good portion. The vegetables were still crunchy and it had a really fresh flavor. We ordered dessert. The hazelnut gelato & the mini chocolate ganache over cheesecake. Both were very good. The cheesecake dessert was very rich and the ganache is very thick. The hazelnut gelato was light and fluffy and really good. It comes served with dark chocolate syrup and whipped cream. Overall I really enjoyed myself. My friend was really happy that I liked the place. I even plan on ordering lunch for delivery in the near future. Good quality food with great service, decent prices in a clean environment!

Located right outside manhattan and in the South of Bronx. A fast developing neighborhood and beautiful art murals everywhere. Reminds me of Williamsburg to be honest. Ceetay is also on a block where they constantly shut down their street to host circus events, dances, and other entertainments. It is such a hot location. Those who live in the area do not need to travel over an hour to dt manhattan just for sushi. Ceetays newly renovated restaurant offers fast fresh and delicious sushi! Kani salad was so refreshing and is definitely a must get! Along with the agedashi tofu. That was my favorite appetizer. Super crispy and the sauce was so good. Rock shrimp is no doubt a must! If you never had it before, you have to get it, the tiny little crispy things are soo fun and delicious. The kawasaki roll was also super delicious. The crab meat with crispy avocado was so good, I never had a roll like that anywhere else. The bronx boogie roll was also my favorite, especially if you like a little heat with your rolls. If you aren't a fan of raw fish or seaweed, the grilled salmon soy wrap is your go to roll. It is wrapped in a soy wrap instead of seaweed! How innovative is that?!! We absolutely loved Ceetay and cannot wait to go back. So glad to see the Bronx developing and bringing in new cuisines and culture.

We didn't really know what to expect from this small restaurant we always drive by en route to the city. But Ceetay surprised us with its coziness and delicious food. There were three couples quietly dining with many other people picking up takeout orders. The menu offers a range of sushi as well as other Japanese and Thai dishes, along with beer, wine and a robust selection of sake. Whether you're in the mood for a large sushi order to share or a sampling of appetizers, you will enjoy Ceetay's flavors.

Delicious vegan pad Thai! Despite being a sushi place, Ceetay offers a good amount of delicious plant based options. The portions are also pretty generous

The staff was pleasant, fun and attentive; they all worked as a team from the cashier to the chef. My food came out fast. I like how they allowed me to be seated outside to enjoy beautiful weather. Has a cozy, natural feel and is clean. A great stop to make when in the Bronx.

This is an absolute gem in the South Bronx. As a native NYer I’m usually not a fan of gentrification but I’m glad this spot is in the neighborhood lol. The sushi is amazingly fresh, the portions are large & they are generous with sauces. You will be swimming in spicy mayo and gluten free soy sauce. I found this place on a whim because I wanted an avocado salad and I left with Sushi, shrimp tempura, chicken tempura, a HUGE avocado salad with salmon bites and all the fixings. I dug in before I could take pics lmao. The portions were so big I had to put the chopsticks down and pack the rest away. I am happy as a clam. 🥰

This place is not extremely good or horrible, it is bare minimum. Nice staff with clean and fresh quality food made on the spot which is nice. The downside is there's no indoor seating and takes a long time to prepare and kind of pricy. I would recommend stopping by if you're in the area, but by no means go out of your way. Perfect for lunch, break or grabbing a quick bite alone because lack of comfortable seating.

My husband and I are visiting from Oklahoma, and happened to stop in for a quick beer after walking around the delis and bakeries of Arthur Avenue. As “beer” people, we enjoyed ourselves—delicious, cold beer and great conversation with Natalie & Paul! If y’all ever make it out to Oklahoma, please stop in and see us at Skydance!! Cheers!

Really great environment. Everyone is friendly, and the pizza is so so so good. I would go a million times over.

This is a really cute spot, open and airy in the middle of a market. However, the wine that I ordered did not taste like wine. It tasted both watered down and higher in alcohol (how both of those can be true, not sure). It tasted so bad that I didn’t finish it. Maybe that’s my mistake for ordering wine at a beer hall… the staff and other patrons were really friendly and it’s a good place to stop in, but something is not right with their wine.

What an awesome place. Right in the middle of an Italian market. Stopped there for some beers. We bought the food at the market around and enjoyed our Italian food.

A nice place to sit and have a drink. Friendly service. If you want to have a beer (but not only that), I deliver it warmly.

I found this place threw instagram I wasn’t aware it was inside of a market but it was super cool the bathroom was pretty clean and the service was nice I would definitely be returning I had cider and I forgot the name of the blue drink I had and I also tried one of there hot sauces they had behind the bar it was super hot 🥵 I met some nice people stayed for a while and even got a sandwich from the deli inside and a piece of cheese and the owner of the deli was giving out free samples I will definitely be returning the only thing I didn’t like was the djs music but other then that the experience was great

Great market and food hall in the middle on the Bronx's Little Italy. Avoid the tourist trap of Manhattan's Little Italy and come to this one. Very authentic with lots of good options. Excellent beer choice and it's not expensive.

The iconic Joe's Italian Deli. Authentic Italian ingredients and products. The sandwiches are life changing. I ordered a 5 foot sandwich for my daughter's birthday party and everyone loved it. The prices are good and worth every penny. Customer service is excellent, everyone is so kind and accommodating. The smells of cheeses and cured meats are intoxicating. All the quality ingredients make you want to try you hand at making some Italian food at home with the good stuff. Its a must to visit this place.

I’ve vacationed in Rome before and I can’t honestly say, this shop is the real deal. I got the Bella Donna and it was perfect, it literally couldn’t have been more perfect. The worker came and gave me a fresh piece of mozzarella while I was sitting enjoying my sandwich and it was some of the best I’ve had! 12/10 recommend! It was so good I even made a tiktok about it so everyone knows about this amazing spot!

I got the big Tony for a friend and the uncle Frank for me. Super good mozzarella and the sandwiches are very very good, mine had prosciutto, mozzarella, and roasted red peppers, I highly recommend it. Got a wedge of pecorino too. But it's hard to overstate how beautiful this store is, with the careful arrangement of all the salumeri and grocery items, and all the carefully painted signage. It's a real treat. I shared with an Italian American (2nd Gen) friend of mine some of these pictures and she said "I want my house to look like this". Me too!

The eggplant, chicken cutlet and Parma are among the best I’ve ever had (and I’m obsessed with high quality Italian sandwiches). This is the real deal and I would stop your search to find a more delicious Italian deli in the Bronx. Also the service is unbelievable- they made an exception for me and let me pick up my sandwiches after the store closed. This place is a gem.

The atmosphere here was very uncomfortable. The owner was yelling at his employees with such anger that it made the whole experience unpleasant for my family. He even shouted at customers for taking too long to order, which felt completely uncalled for. To make matters worse, my chicken was served cold. The bread, sauce, and cheese were fresh, but the behavior of the owner overshadowed everything. Without the angry older man, this place could actually be enjoyable.

The service was great. The atmosphere is nice. They have some seating space, which is also great. We ordered the Calabrian Sting Sandwich. Out of this world. It was huge! Perfect blend between spicy and saucy. The chicken was great. Will definetely come back!

This place is truly a gem in a small neighborhood in the Bronx. Everything made and sold here is fresh and of great quality. The Deli can be found in Little Italy in the Bronx. The staff is cordial, and very amicable. They offer hot foods, as well as a huge variety of sandwiches. They have a catering menu, and many more things to satisfy the most demanding food critic. I strongly recommend stopping by and checking them out for yourself. You will not be disappointed.

We love having some more healthy options in the South Bronx area. This cafe is adorable, charming and serves up tasty breakfast, brunch and lunch options. The avocado toast is a staple favorite. We love the fresh smoked salmon that pairs well with the hot sauce kick. Always a delicious breakfast bite.

Love this gem in the south Bronx! Food is so good and well prepared. The staff is incredibly friendly and patient. Atmosphere is spacious with shared seating and plenty of space to meet and spread out. Pastries are delicious and the coffee is top notch!

Found this location while randomly riding around the neighborhood. I was lucky. This is a little hidden treasure full of amazing surprises. The atmosphere is very laid back, the staff is attentive, polite, and willing to help make your experience with them a joy. The food came out quick and was worth every bite. I recommend a 10/10. Please check them out and I’m already looking forward to stopping by again. Thank you for a wonderful experience and great meal.

The food is… edible. But they don’t offer regular bacon… not sure if that’s a religious restriction or something. The rooftop is wonderful. However the service is very strange. First two times that we visited, it was fine. The third visit.. We ordered two meals and two coffees and one of the coffees never showed up even after repeatedly inquiring about it. As in asked specifically 3 times over the course of an hour, and was told that they would check. Then they would come back and bring other people their food but not my coffee. We finished the meal and left, received a refund for the coffee because at that point it was just strange and I didn’t want it. I don’t think I’ll be back any time soon but would try it again if the staff is different in the future….

THE BEST CAFE IN NYC so far. I have written so many reviews and have been to many places around the world, this is one of the moments i write a review and feel like i wanna give 10 stars ! Food is delicious i mean MICHELIN STAR kind of delicious. Service is beyond wonderful and atmosphere is heavenly and homey. I'm in love❤️

I went to Mottley Kitchen this morning with my girl. There wasn’t a long line when we arrived, but it did get busy as we waited for our food and coffee. I ordered the Chicken Avocado Sandwich, a side of potato wedges, and a flat white. My girl got the French toast and a hazelnut iced latte. First of all, presentation was amazing — everything looked upscale and thoughtfully plated. The quality of the food was top-tier. You can see the freshness in the strawberries and blueberries. I’ve been working in produce for 9 years, and I know how hard it is to find good berry quality this time of year, so I could tell they took their time choosing the right ones. I expected the potato wedges to be your usual frozen kind, but they were clearly made fresh — garnished with arugula and sautéed onions. The only thing I initially thought was missing was salt… but honestly, that turned out to be the best decision on their part. I could season it to my liking instead of it being overly salty. Smart move. Now, the Chicken Avocado Sandwich? I won’t spoil it for you — that’s something you need to try yourself. Just know I’ll definitely be a regular here. The coffee was amazing too, and the whole experience was warm, friendly, and worth every penny. Thank you, Mottley Kitchen, for your service and attention to detail!

Visiting NY and as a first time customer I was throughly pleased from the moment I walked in to Motley Kitchen which had a very warm and inviting atmosphere. Good selection of all the standard coffee offerings and pastries. Prompt & very friendly (not over the top🙏) counter service and food delivery to my table. Order a Mocha and Corn Blueberry muffin… both delicious.

I was looking forward to my stuff potatoes, ana stuff alcarpuria... the potato & the alcarpuria barely had meat in it, it was tasteless, and very pale, no salon, no flavor. The blood sausage was almost perfect, but again had no flavor, no hot sauce (pique). Sadly I don't recommend even after spending $45. In this place. Purchased a whole chicken, that was actually good.

Worst alcapuria I ever had n it was made with cornmeal. 🤢 The rice, beans and meats are all cooked with Dominican seasoning, by a Dominican cook. So they should call it a Dominican Restaurant and not a good one at that. This food is not Puerto Rican at all. I can't post without a star so they get 1 even though they deserve 0.

The cuchifritos were on point. Service was quick and the variety was expansive. Don't sleep onnthis spot, you'll regret it.

Haven't been here in years, and they still taste the same! Good service, good food and refreshing drinks. I had the avena and it was delicious. Pernil on point. Chicharones Dominicano was the bomb, You have to try them, it's like butter.chicken chunks are always tasty. Parking still stinks!

Never again. I wanted to try it out but. biggg mistake. I ordered Moro de habichuela with BBQribs and it was what I believe is white rice with mixed in beans. It's definitely not arroz cob habichuelas junto. You could see the sauce from the beans on the plate and its mushy. I bought potatoe salad and threw it out cuz it was sour spoiled.

Caribbean soul food on a budget! They have a huge menu & great drink options. The food comes out very quick. Staff is friendly & helpful.

Friendly service food kept at a proper temperature, windows so you can be able to see the food, and the food is definitely handled with care.

We happened to be in the Arthur Ave area and stopped in here for some wine & appetizers because we saw it listed on the NYT 100 Best Restaurants list. It was warm & cozy inside and somewhat quiet (we were there early on a Sunday evening). They sat us immediately, so not sure if you need a reservation at other times… The servers were very friendly and attentive and we enjoyed the food. Their bread is served warm and is very filling - so come hungry. Looking forward to returning soon for a full meal.

Went here after work with a few coworkers and ordered a little bit of everything and it did not disappoint. We sat near the front at a beautiful round wooden table. They had cool leather-bound menus and a rustic vibe. The mixed meat platter was flavorful and perfectly seasoned. The grilled octopus? Absolute perfection. The mantia was the STAR of the night for me, along with the olives! so fragrant with orange peel and herbs that I could have eaten them by the bowl. We also tried the Albanian beer that was smooth, crisp, and refreshing. The service was very attentive and provided some great recommendations. Would definitely come back.

This place was absolutely incredible. We will definitely be coming back here. They also have two other locations (which we haven’t been to, but will definitely go to). First off, stepping into this restaurant was like stepping into an old world restaurant. There’s a really rustic, charming vibe that is absolutely transportive. We went for dinner in the middle of the week, so we were the old table while we were there, but the staff was so lovely and attentive. They definitely have a lot of pride for the restaurant and food and I get why. Now on to the food. Wow. The food was amazing and the price was so wildly reasonable. We started with the sausage dip, the pickled pepper, and the sesame baked cheese. The pickled pepper had the perfect bite to it and was a little spicy (think how a banana pepper is spicy) with great flavors for the veggies inside the pepper. The sausage dip was both familiar and interesting and so perfectly delicious. It came with these warm bread roll things that were steaming when we tore them open. The cheese was also nice, especially paired with the bread. We also had the Fli which is kind of like a baked layer pastry dish served with a feta cheese and was so good. Then we had the fasule with suxhuk. It’s essentially a white bean stew/soup with a type of sausage in it. This was so hearty and comforting. I could eat a bowl of it in front of the fire on a winter day. It was simple with a depth of flavor that was on point. We also had the grilled octopus, which was cooked well and very delicious. Overall, the meal was an absolute delight and we truly had a great time. Everything from the ambiance to the service to the food to the price point made this place an absolute must visit.

My friend and I decided to check out Çka Ka Qëllu on a Saturday after doing a NYBG trip. We made a reservation for 1:30, and I would recommend making a reservation if you are going at a popular time. The interior of the restaurant is unique, almost like you're in a stone cottage. The decor consists of Albanian artifacts, which is always a cool touch to the dining experience. Our server was extremely helpful guiding us through the menu, as neither of us had a ton of experience with the cuisine. We got the smaller order of the mantia ($11), which were veal dumplings. The dumplings were good, I just wanted a touch more flavor on the meat and a thicker consistency of the yogurt sauce. My friend got the tava kosi ($24), which is a lamb dish. This dish is flavored well, but it is on the saltier side! I got the gulash ($23), which I had a similar critique to the tava kosi. Once I ate the meat and potatoes, the rest of the gulash felt like I was eating flavored oil rather than a soup or stew, so I didn't wipe the bowl clean. The homemade bread helped to balance out the saltiness and sop up some of the liquid. Overall, I thought everything was very tasty, and I would return to try other dishes. Service was exceptional. From the moment we walked in, we were treated with the highest level of hospitality. Because we went on a hot day, we drank a lot of water. There was never a point where our glasses went empty! There were also multiple checkbacks. I would highly recommend checking out Çka Ka Qëllu if you're in the area at the garden or the zoo!

The food was spectacular! Loved the presentation as well as the delicious layers of flavors and textures. The staff very knowledgeable and patient. We were there late beyond closing. There was no hint of rushing us out. Very comfortable setting. Not expensive at all.

My husband and I came here for our anniversary dinner, and this place was absolutely beautiful and we had an amazing experience! We’ve never tried Albanian cuisine, so once we tried it here - we were sooo impressed! The food was SO flavorful and juicy and perfect!! The staff was SO hospitable & sweet (something Albanian culture really takes pride in their hospitality)! We would definitely come here again with family! Thank you for a great experience!!!

My boyfriend and I visited this cafe at 6 pm. It was quite crowded. I ordered green olives, they were with orange zest, it was incredible! We also ordered a main course, my boyfriend noticed that I am allergic to spicy food and for me they added less spices to the meat, it was great!! Beer, water, all Albanian production, it was a joy. For dessert, the waiter recommended a certain dish to me. When they brought my dessert, I refused to eat it because I saw a fingerprint on the plate (it was black), they replaced my dessert WITHOUT PROBLEMS. Thank you

Delicious all around. I sat at the bar during happy hour—which, to my surprise, ran a little longer than expected, giving me extra time to enjoy the vibe and the drinks. The espresso martini was truly to die for—not like any other I’ve ever had. Rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced. Every cocktail we tried had its own personality, distinct and full of layered flavor. I started with the Tacos de Cochinita, which were tender, flavorful, and packed with slow-roasted goodness. The guacamole was fresh and creamy with just the right amount of lime and heat, served with warm, crisp chips. You could tell everything was made with care. The service was a standout—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu. They offered helpful recommendations and checked in without being overbearing. The setting itself felt upscale yet welcoming, with modern Mexican flair. It’s the kind of place where you can dress up a little, enjoy quality food and drinks, and still feel completely relaxed. Whether you’re there for a casual happy hour or a full dinner, this place delivers an elevated experience across the board.

Tobalá was absolutely fantastic - from start to finish! Reservations are not required, but I could see why it is suggested - it could easily get packed. Wonderful service (Cindy was knowledgeable and courteous) and superb food (easily one of the top 5 meals I've ever eaten at a restaurant - thank you chef Moises!)... I could see why they're poised to get that Michelin star (good luck!) Perfect date night spot, great NYC location (Riverdale). Hope to come back sooner than later.

Tobalá is a gem of a restaurant that beautifully blends creativity, flavor, and atmosphere. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a warm, intimate setting with thoughtful decor and a welcoming staff. The menu is inspired and ever-changing, showcasing seasonal ingredients with a strong nod to Mexican roots, particularly Oaxacan cuisine. We started with the mezcal cocktails, which were expertly crafted — smoky, balanced, and unique. For starters, the heirloom corn tamales were a standout, with perfectly soft masa and rich fillings. The main dishes were equally impressive; the mole was deep, complex, and memorable, and the grilled meats were cooked to perfection. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the staff was happy to explain the dishes and suggest pairings. Prices are on the higher side, but well worth it for the quality and experience. Overall, Tobalá is a must-visit for anyone looking for a special dining experience that celebrates bold flavors and culinary artistry. Thanks again for a great experience.

The food was good, but the service definitely needs improvement. No one came to our table for about 15 minutes after we were seated. I think the manager noticed and came over—she was very sweet and ended up taking our order. We also had to ask for water multiple times. Overall, it felt a bit overpriced for the level of service we received.

What a gem! Went here tonight for date night & was so impressed by the service and food. Their specialty drinks were also well curated. Love to see a beautiful spot like this in the community 🇲🇽🇩🇴

I went with my husband for dinner, Franmy was the best! Everything that he suggested we loved it, the decor is beautiful and the atmosphere is super cozy! We will come back for sure.

Unique and delicious. What a great experience, well designed with a modern take of Mexican style. Authentic menu with traditional imported ingredients. And an amazing offer of agave produced drinks and their own tequila and mezcal brands. The service is phenomenal, with plenty of space to park and excellent location. #HighlyRecommended by @Aventure.dos and @SoIsayIcancook

We ordered latte, taste was so bad by itself. Can’t even describe. Floor is dirty, on chandler Is dusty. There was not a lot people inside and the food was so mush earlier than drinks. Food was with chocolate, so be careful when you ordering. For example in sandwich they put chocolate inside with chicken. Ketchup was with chocolate. 18% tip was already included. For this type of place it was so pricey.

Visited the Chocobar out of pure curiosity. A lovely hip little spot, with an inviting and friendly atmosphere, complete with an amazing staff line up. The drinks were incredible; perfectly crafted with hints of their signature chocolate name sake. The foods were delicious and expertly presented. The only flaw I found was with the Avocado Toast. Boasting cured bacon with eggs on a slice of brioche bread, it was overly salty. So much so that I it was uneatable. However, that was the only minor blip on a perfect dinning experience. Also can’t forget the live Latin music, played at a level that is pleasing to the ears and pulled the overall experience together. To ensure you secure your dinning experience, make sure you reserve your table ahead of time. While they do take walk ins, it’s a small space that fills up quickly.

My family and I visited Chocobar Cortes today! It was our first time there. Originally, we were looking for a smoothie or shake place. Then, we ended up ordering food here. While the food was good, the customer service could’ve been better. Only two out of the four employees were pleasant. My family and I will be back. Hopefully, the politeness increases by then.

Here are my 2 cents about my visit to chocobar cortes. My girlfriends and I made reservations for Sunday brunch. The place is cute and the service was great. The staff worked together to make sure food came out together, quick and hot. However, I must say, the chocomartini was weak, not much liquor, it tasted like a frozen frappé. I think some of the food items are overpriced. We ordered the picadera, and for $27, we got 2 empanadas, 2 tostones with carne asada, 1 small suruyo, and 1 small alcapurria. We also ordered chicken and waffles $25, but we didn't get chicken, we got "nuggets" for that price I was expecting at least one real piece of chicken or one chicken tender, not McDonald's nuggets (not tasty at all). Overall, the atmosphere is nice, the service is great, and the food was good, but please consider serving real fried chicken with your waffles.

Awesome place! The arroz con gandules and empanadas de camarones tasted like my mom's food. Yummy!! We had tacos de mofongo with shrimp, pancakes, French toasts (breakfast all day!), hot chocolate (delicious!), and chocolate latte, and we ended up ordering food to go. To top it off, Javy (the waiter), was awesome. We highly recommend it.

if you love chocolate, this is a great place to go! i had the chocolada and it was soooo yummy! if i were to go back, i wouldn’t order the french toast again. also, the chicken tender size did not meet my expectation for the price but as for the environment it’s a nice brunch spot, the music/vibes are amazing and the staff that work there are so kind and helpful!

Great atmosphere and great vibe. From the moment you walk in the restaurant, to the moment you enter the restroom, the decor was absolutely fun and funky. We didn't have a reservation; however, the owner/manager (?) was friendly and kind enough to give us a table. Thankfully, it wasn't crowded when we went for an early lunch. The food was tasty. From the chicken sandwich to the French toast and waffles, everything was mouth-watering. I ordered the chili hot chocolate (oooweee, this had a great amount of heat and it was so good!) Temperature-wise, my hot chocolate and the food could have been a bit hotter. Overall, this was a cool restaurant.

Arthur Market is a true neighborhood treasure, blending authentic Italian flavor with a lively, old-world atmosphere. The selection is fantastic—juicy Italian sausages, all kinds of meats, buckets of flavorful olives, and some of the freshest fruits and vegetables you’ll find anywhere. Their pizza is made fresh and full of flavor, perfect for a quick bite while you shop. There’s also a little bar and café inside where you can enjoy a glass of wine, a cappuccino, or just take in the vibe of the place. It’s warm, welcoming, and full of character. One of the most unique touches? The cigar shop, where you can actually watch cigars being hand-rolled right in front of you. It’s a rare sight and adds even more charm to an already special spot. Arthur Market is more than just a place to shop—it’s an experience. If you’re in the area, it’s absolutely worth a visit.

A wonderful place, it combines many small shops, you can eat delicious food or drinks, the whole place is in the Italian style, and actually the whole area is called Little Italy, the place also has one of the most important markets for rolling and manufacturing cigars by hand, you must visit the place and enjoy the atmosphere

Beautiful farmers market that feels like you transport to the middle east or something. It is a bit small, but they have fresh fruits and vegetables, beer, ice cream, and more here.

A REAL butcher shop. Customer service was top shelf. I was looking for slab bacon.The butcher showed me the slab, & the slice thickness. Good service doesn't happen anymore. This guy cared about me & my bacon. I purchased 2lbs of the best looking slab bacon.

Great place to visit for the day.

Cool vibe although loud blasting music was over the top and not needed, prefer to have lower volume so i could chat with the people but whatever kids run the little bar you get kid setting

We were visiting from OK and were so excited to get to see what people were calling "The real Little Italy". The market is pretty cool - lots of fresh vegetables, along with deli items, cured meats, pasta, cheeses, and more all direct from Italy. There were great italian lunch options and a place where people were hand rolling cigars. I so wish we were staying long enough to buy some produce!

I ordered the Magherita pizza and was attentively waited on! The recipe is 100+ years old and did not disappoint. Nice quiet place for lunch, would love to return with a group for dinner as it seems more of a family-style focused establishment than a place to grab a quick bite.

It was like stepping back in time in an era of nostalgia and Italian food in an atmosphere of a time gone by with dim lit dining room, stories of stars visited and movie references. The visit here was an experience, the food is great, old school traditional sauces, which u can tell were homemade. The owner walked around greeted people had beautiful conversations gave us a little history Lesson about the neighbourhood and menu highlights.

Mario's has been a family tradition since the 1960s. I have fond memories of large family gatherings at this treasure of a restaurant since I was 8 or 9 years old! Mario's granddaughter almost always greets you at the door and makes sure that you're welcomed and cared for. Incredibly helpful and friendly! The wait staff is very knowledgeable and can't work any harder to make your time there unforgettably wonderful!! In the last few months, my girlfriend and I have been there several times and have chosen different dishes from their varied menu. Everything has always been prepared perfectly...so mouthwatering and delicious. I've had their stracciatella soup, which is incredible, as is their salmon, their pasta, and their chicken francese, to name a few. The bread basket is filled with amazingly tasty, crispy and soft sliced bread with oil or butter! Needless to say - desserts....just great!!! I love the tartufo, but they have a number of other terrific choices as well. And...coffee!! The interior is decorated with old-world paintings and soft lighting. Arthur Avenue is always busy, but they have a parking valet who takes care of your vehicle and makes sure it returns in perfect condition when you're ready to leave. Mario's is a special and lovely restaurant experience that we will continue to enjoy for years to come!!

Such amazing service and when I say the food was great I really mean the food was to die for. SO SO GOOD! Our server chatted with us and gave us awesome recommendations of in housemade pastas and made the whole experience absolutely amazing, if you have a chance to eat here I would completely recommend it

Amazing food. Pastas were out of this world. My three year old knocked so many things off the table and they were so patient and kind. Huge portions and very affordable and strong A/C!

Best Italian I have ever had, 10/10 food & service. Don't miss their penne a la vodka & margarita pizza!

Best Italian restaurant in New York, the pastas were flavoursome and aldente, also great service.

Tatiana by Kwame Onwuachi is a culinary triumph. More than a meal, it is a celebration of African American culture and cuisine uniquely interpreted through the lens of New York. The food here is bold, thoughtful and reverent with each dish telling a unique story. Its more than nostalgia, but heritage and tradition reinterpreted for the modern era. The cooking here insists that African American food belongs in the same conversation as other haute cuisine and is comfortable on the city's most competitive stage. The unique juxtaposition of Tatiana within Lincoln Center is itself a statement, with its stark style and urban cultural influence (from the Bronx to Harlem) standing alongside an institution that was synonymous with European high art such as opera and ballet. The dishes here a refuse easy categorization and there are elements of Africa, the Caribbean and New York simultaneously fused together. Must tries include the curried goat patties (a wink to Jamaican and New York street food), dukes shrimp (a throwback to shrimp boils from deep south), wagyu pastrami (an elevated and indulgent version of a deli staple) and the cosmic brownie with powdered donut ice cream (a bodega homage). The energy in Tatiana is equally buzzy and feels closer to a nightclub or block party than a fine dining restaurant. The playlist is immaculate, sampling R&B, Hip-Hop and rap greatest hits from the late 90s and 2000s (think TLC, Jay-Z, Neo, Destiny's Child, J.Cole) which adds to the atmosphere and performance. I will caution that the demand for Tatiana is insatiable and the kitchen and dining room operate at full capacity at all times. Reservations are still hard to come by (be prepared to book your table the second it opens on Resy) and be prepared to wait when you are there (for your table, to get drinks, to put in your order, to get your cheque, etc). Like many of New York's most in demand restaurant, there are most guests than staff which easily overwhelms the kitchen. But staff here are sincere and hardworking and try their best to stay on top. Also budget approximately $150/person with tax and tip. Make no mistake, Tatiana is still a fine dining restaurant.

I went to Tatiana during my birthday trip to New York, and honestly, it ended up being one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! We showed up on a Saturday around 3:50 with no reservation, and there was already a line forming. By 4:30, the staff came out with complimentary tea for everyone waiting, which I thought was such a thoughtful touch. Right at 5:00, the doors opened and we were able to choose between sitting outside or at the bar we went with the bar, and I’m so glad we did! The energy was perfect great music, good vibes, and the friendliest staff you could ask for. Everyone was so polite, warm, and genuinely happy to be there. We ordered the lamb ribs, pastrami, oxtails, and curry goat empanadas. Let me tell you the lamb ribs were the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life. I’m still thinking about them days later! The empanadas and oxtails were also full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The pastrami was just okay to me, but everything else completely made up for it. Since it was my birthday, they surprised us with a complimentary dessert a brownie, powdered doughnut, and ice cream and it was the sweetest ending to an amazing meal. Between the food, atmosphere, music, and incredible staff, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re ever in NYC, Tatiana is a must. I’d rate it 10/10 highly recommend!

As good as you have been told, however I really want to highlight the service which may have been the best I have experienced. The waitress was an older Latina woman who was spectacular. The braised ox tail was the tenderest version of it I have ever had. The stewed chicken was the perfect amount of spice, I loved it. The mango chutney with the empanadas was awesome. The rib was great also. The side car cocktail was awesome. The rice, doubles and the cosmic brownie was great but I definitely have had better versions. The music was perfect pure vibes and at the correct volume. The staff really shines here I cant explain how good they were. Overall worth the hype they receive. Would absolutely return.

great service friendly and knowledgeable staff and very accommodating. Great place for special event the food is eclectic and delicious! Get their riff on pastrami ruben and all the appys! The Jamaican patties were just out of this world. It's an original take on Caribbean cuisine that's sophisticated and elegant the chef really has mad skills! highly recommend

I’m gonna give this a perfect score. I feel like people commonly criticize the prices but my feeling was yes, they are a bit high and going even higher in the last year, but look at it as a location surcharge. Look at where you are dining. They probably have rent to pay like any restaurant and I’m sure it’s not cheap. Overall the food, service and atmosphere were top notch. The most unforgettable element for us was the service. From the minute we stepped in the door we were treated like the most important people in the room, and this was made all the more impressive later in our meal when we realized Jay Z and Beyoncé were dining on the other side of the restaurant. This didn’t stop the maitre d from checking on a couple of walk ins multiple times throughout our meal, and our server offering us a complimentary dessert because he could tell we were really torn between two options. It’s incredible to feel so taken care of. Beyond that, everything we ordered was delicious, hot, complex and really interesting. Hats off to this team, we will be back!

Wow, what an amazing meal. The chef refers to this restaurant as his "love letter to nyc" and boy do you feel it! The short rib pastrami is exactly that...a love letter to nyc. The curried goat patties and piri salad are also amazing. The core value cocktail is to die for if you like an old fashioned or a manhattan as it's kind of a combo of the two. We had a reservation but others in line didn't and were able to get in so give it a try.

Tatiana by Kwame Onwuachi is one of the most celebrated and award-winning restaurants in New York City. Featured on lists of the best restaurants in the country, praised by The New York Times and Pete Wells, nominated for a James Beard Award — and honestly, every foodie I know dreams of getting a table here. Many of my friends have tried to book and failed. We got lucky thanks to a friend: he went to the bar, spoke with the manager, and got a tip — come at 4:00 PM, one hour before opening, stand in the walk-in line, and you might get seated. He did exactly that. I joined at 5:00, and by 5:40 we were sitting on the patio. At first, we were a bit disappointed to be outside, but it turned out to be perfect — the dining room was loud (music, conversations, dim lighting), while on the patio it was bright, calm, and quiet. They say people often come here before a show at Lincoln Center, but we made the trip just for the food — and it was absolutely worth it. The crowd was stylish, with guests in beautiful dresses and suits — a very nice dressed-up crowd. Our waitress (wearing striking silver-framed glasses) was fantastic and guided us through the menu so well we couldn’t resist her suggestions. The star of the night was the Short Rib Pastrami — marinated for five days! Served with caraway bread, braised red cabbage, and mustard sauce — you assemble your own sandwich. The portion is large, perfect for two. At $120, it’s the most expensive dish on the menu, but worth every penny — every table seemed to order it. As for starters — you can’t go wrong with any. We especially loved the “wontons” filled with crab and oxtail. Every dish came with its own unique spice profile: sorrel here, celery there, a twist on mustard, hot pepper, paprika… Many flavors felt exotic and warm, with clear African influences. Everything was incredibly tasty and made with top-quality ingredients. Service was outstanding — the manager poured us a glass of wine to celebrate the fact that we made it in. We stayed for hours, even though the short ribs took a little longer to arrive. The space is beautifully designed down to the restrooms, which have great music and lighting. Highly recommend!

I want to start off with saying that the food arrived steaming hot delivery person was very understanding and nice. He did not have change on him which was a little inconvenient. We ordered over the phone paid in cash delivery time was 45 minutes and we are approximately less than 2 miles away if thatThe chicken wings and french fries were freshly fried the chicken wings however we’re extremely soft, which is alarming in a sense because why is it so soft but the meat inside is Slightly hard I didn’t necessarily mind, but my partner did. It wasn’t crispy was just soft. Fries are crinkle cut nothing special in seasoning or taste. The shrimp lo mein tasted a mid it will get you through when needed. Chicken wings and pork fried rice was NOT FRESH. I smelled the rice and the pork it smelled old, bitter, and tart. I didn’t even eat it not one scoop. Plain broccoli was surprisingly fresh. I was scared by the rice. The white rice smells weird it came free with the broccoli also didn’t eat. The fried wontons were okay. The meat inside didn’t taste very fresh either but the shell casing was crispy. The crab Rangoon’s were nasty. Just nasty. I think the best things were the french fries, broccoli, and ginger ale. I would rate this restaurant overall, a three out of 10 and I give them a two out of five rating based on delivery, taste, and quality.

Never does me wrong. Thank you!!! I can always get my Wonton soup without the wontons when I’m sick.

I ordered the chicken and broccoli lunch special and it tasted fresh!!

9/11/20, I specifically go to Footings for the best fried rice! The one with all the meats, I always compliment the rice with CHICKEN WIGS!! and ask for the mixed Ice tea & 🍋 aid! The next time I'm going to try their noodles! Yeh ! Enjoy!

The food is good but the customer service is horrible. I placed an order over the phone and the lady kept hanging up, didn’t ask any clarifying questions— was just rude overall.

Steam dumplings, the flour thicker than the meat. The orange chicken rice and chicken too dry. The orange chicken wasn’t orange at all, more like dark brown. I had to throw away the food. I will order lunch somewhere else. Please cook better I know you can. I will not order again I am so disappointed with their cooking style bad food for me

I used to come here years ago when I lived in the area... Went back after about 8 years and man was the food still delicious. Still got stickey rip tips with bbq, the chicharron de pollo with the black garlic sauce is just great! Not to mention the pork fried rice and general tso's chicken was also very delicious. Thank you foohing for the great food.

I’m a super happy customer! I always come around to grab my favorite juice ! Trust me when I told you that the guys working here are gonna make you feel welcomed and will help you decide if you have trouble choosing what to eat or drink. Is a small place but they have chairs, and a table if you want to go ahead and enjoy your meal or drink in there. Can be pricey for people when I said I pay $7.08 for a juice but it worth every penny. I mean, I get full drinking it, after I drink it I don’t feel like eating i get satisfied quick. And is something natural, made with fruits that help you a lot with your digestive system and weight loss. They make juices for particular things like if you haven’t sleep good or eat too much during the week etc.

Place is great I frequent here a lot. Everything is delicious Pero just one thing if I never asked for beets please don’t put it in my smoothie Mango Orange Pineapple

Amazing service every single time. I work around the area and come here at least 3-4 times a week. From there salads to drinks, everything is fresh and tasty. Even did juicing for a few days and she worked with me. She cared about what I did and did not like so that I can complete the juicing without quitting! Recommend this place to anyone!!!

Absolutely love this place! Everything is so fresh & delicious! The staff is very friendly & knowledgeable of all the products they offer. I especially love the protein balls that are made and packaged so you can take them with you to use as a snack or meal throughout your day. They are so scrumptious! I would definitely recommend stopping in and trying them, they are worthy of the 5 stars!

Came here when I started juicing after a holiday binge. Great little juice bar in the South Bronx.

I really enjoy freshly made. Not necessarily the quickest place to grab a bite, but let's face it. Perfect juice takes time haha. All in all it they have great prices, options, and flavour! I recommend the Bronx Bloom!

Customer service is great (every customer greeted as they walk through the door). Even with a simple mix of primarily fruits & vegatables, the smoothies and juices are great. Very fresh. They have specific combinations on the menu but I’m a fan of making my own concoction. At times i’ve found myself there more than once per day. The sandwiches are an added bonus as well. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who pays attention to their health and what they put in their body!

Great food and great service. I usually got there for their Nachos. My mom loves them

The shrimp quesadilla is the best I ever had I always go there just for the quesadillas and the owner if the place is very nice guy and the food is always amazing and I recommend it to everyone I know

Very delicious pizza. The staff is friendly and very welcoming. Love all the options that are available to eat. They have a variety of Mexican food and American Fast Food. 5/5 recommend their Nachos, Tacos and Quesadillas.

My husband and I order from here all the time. Always consistent and the owner is so nice. Yes to the chicken enchiladas or any of the salads with chicken. We also like to binge on cheese fries when the time is right :)

I love their tacos it taste so authentic and seasoned well...highly recommend

I love the quesadillas and chicken sandwich. The owner is super nice.

WARNING ! Racist workers !!! we get it gentrification sucks for all. Will not support or recommend this overpriced racist pizza, Try "Nobodys Pizza" instead.

I finally had the chance to dine at Daniel for my birthday and we opted for the 5-course prix fixe menu. Canapes: Excellent start. There was a uni bite I really enjoyed, though I wish I remembered the rest—it all went by quickly but set the tone nicely. Maine Sea Scallop Carpaccio: A solid beginning to the courses. The scallop paired beautifully with grapefruit—fresh, light, and delicious. Warm Seafood Fricassee: This one was interesting. It came with small pieces of snail, octopus, squid, mussels, a SINGLE small pieces of lobster, and scallop. The seafood itself was great, though the sauce threw me off—it had a peanut or nutty flavor that didn’t work for me (personal preference, since I’m not a fan of nutty sauces). The squid was also a little chewy. Funny enough, while I was jotting notes on my phone, the waiter came over almost immediately to check in and even offered to replace the dish. I appreciated the attentiveness but decided to keep it. Black Cod: Served with caviar and beluga lentils. The texture of the fish was tender and cooked well, though slightly bland. Pennsylvania Duck: Perfectly cooked—medium and tender—but I wasn’t a fan of the olives embedded in the duck or the pecan sauce, which I felt didn’t complement the dish. Mekonga (Dessert): A dark chocolate dessert with coconut milk jam. I didn’t get much of the coconut flavor, but overall it was a solid, well balanced dessert. They also served freshly baked madeleines at the end, which were decent but not particularly memorable. The chocolate piece with gold flakes looked pretty but didn’t taste special, and the mini coffee macaron was a definite miss for me. At the end of the night, they invited us into the kitchen for a quick look. It was a kind gesture, though there wasn’t much to see—nice touch, but not particularly rewarding… meh… Overall, I’d give Daniel a strong 4 stars. The service was exceptional—though it did slow down once the restaurant got busy, and we ended up waiting almost 30 minutes for dessert. Still, it was a great experience overall. A few dishes could use small tweaks. But, solid

We reserved Daniel for our Anniversary- it was a spectacular experience from beginning to end. I have dietary restrictions, and the chef was more than accommodating of them. Our Captain was Zach, followed by Serenity. I couldn’t give them a better review. Everyone we encountered was amazing. We highly recommend!

While visiting NYC recently, wanted to experience fine dinning that was quintessentially New York. In my research, Daniel came highly recommended I have had some really amazing fine dinning experiences in my local area of Australia and New Zealand but Daniel is at another stratospheric level of fine dinning. I am so glad that I actually had the opportunity to visit My first night's experience of the delightful Mushroom Consommé followed by the Wagyu Beef and finished off with the Fig + Cheese Cake dessert was so incredible, I had to come back a second night to try their other delectable offerings When I asked at the end of the first night if they were able to seat me the following night, the team was amazing and found me a spot The second night was just as phenomenal with the Scallop Carpaccio, Blue Fin Tuna and Moroccan Chocolate The service both nights was warm, welcoming and so personable which I so appreciate. The atmosphere was beautifully elegant. The food was at its own divine level of taste, textures and creativity A big thank you to Daniel, Brian, Peter, Alan, Jorje, Matthew and the greater Daniel team for making me feel so welcome and the whole experience at Daniel - both nights so amazing. I do look forward to being back at Daniel soon

Daniel... very iconic food all tasted great, we didn't do the tasting menu. Did a few a La Carte dishes. The service was phenomenal. Pricy but experience was worth it.

Daniel is unequivocally one of my favorite fine dining restaurants in New York City, and every visit to Daniel is an indulgent journey into high-level gastronomy. I always choose the eight course tasting menu, and my two standout favorites over the years are their New York foie gras and Maine sea scallops, each bite exquisitely crafted. Every course arrives as a work of art, beautifully plated, deeply flavorful, and thoughtfully paced. It is the literal definition of culinary artistry and fine dining. The experience is elegant from start to finish. The service is polished yet warm, and the dining room is refined with coffered ceilings, sparkling chandeliers, and understated sophistication. Though the pricing is high, with the eight course menu running around $295 to $300 per person, for NYC standards this is absolutely worth it, especially if you are celebrating a special occasion or just want to splurge on truly memorable food. What saddens me is that Michelin currently rates Daniel at only one star, a puzzling demotion for a restaurant that consistently delivers excellence in execution and creativity. Daniel previously held two Michelin stars, and before that even three, which makes this latest rating feel like an injustice. Despite Michelin’s concerns about inconsistency, to me Daniel remains a gem, a place where passion for seasonal French cuisine meets meticulous presentation, and where each course showcases top tier ingredients like foie gras and scallops at their peak. Every visit reaffirms why it remains one of the finest and most reliable dining experiences in New York. In short, it is expensive, but absolutely worth it. If you are looking to celebrate or treat yourself, Daniel never disappoints.

was fully reserved for the dining room but we still wanna try it out, so we were at the lounge. vibes were okay, moderate noise, service was great, food was kind of too ordinary, can’t remember any dish, beautifully presented but the flavor needs some improvements. in terms of the food, café boulud and maison barnes do better imo. overall still good to try out.

Pleasantly surprised how nice this restaurant was - excellent value for the quality of food and service . You’ll get invited at the end of the meal to the kitchen to see where all the magic happens. Staff are hard working and take providing an excellent culinary experience seriously. Will be coming again when I’m next in New York!

Amazing experience, but for a 2 Star Michelin, it needs some improvement! I was expecting something more intimate and the restaurant was packed. We were seated in a table with a long couch with two other families very close to us. We had the six course omnivore and two courses were disappointing: the caviar taste disappeared in the green garbanzo beans; the wagyu per se was tasteless and needs improvement! The last thing was the restroom, which was very basic and not compatible with the restaurant sophistication!

Wonderful and friendly staff. Delicious tasting menu. We selected the 6 course menu and we were not disappointed. Great selection of wine; but apparently they don’t offer wine and food pairing options.

Jean-Georges’ flagship restaurant delivers everything expected of a $400 tasting menu, plus some more. One of the best meals of my life. JG’s flavors are bright, inventive, and delicious, marked by judicious use of acidity and flavors from all over Asia. Genius. I’ve never experienced these sorts of interesting flavors at any other restaurant. Despite its age, JG is one of the most youthful and exciting fine dining restaurants in NYC, full of vigor and brimming with fresh ideas. It actively pushes the boundaries of the art of fine dining the same way that a maestro wants to leave an imprint in their own artistic field. JG is worthy of being a destination dining. Caveat: you must love acidity to enjoy a meal here. Normally I highlight the standout dishes. Here, every dish was a standout except two, an exceptionally high hit rate for such a long menu. The caviar with coconut semifreddo and dill oil felt too simplistic and flat: fun concept but seemed missing a few ingredients. The seared foie gras was missing acidity. If it appeared earlier in the meal I’d have enjoyed it more (but then it’d ruin my appetite). A sweet and heavy dish towards the end was a bit much without some acidity to balance it out. Everything else was downright phenomenal, especially the madai sashimi with strawberry, sakura, and wasabi, which sent me directly to the stratosphere. The tuna tartare’s decoration is an exemplar of garnish for flavor, not just aesthetics, as the mint added a nice surprise and significantly changed two or three bites. The dining room was beautifully bathed by natural lighting with a nice view of the mall and skyscrapers. The wine by the glass selection was just as complex and exciting as the food. The service was extraordinary: conversational without feeling rehearsed, and it felt like they’d do everything in their power to make sure you have an excellent dinner. I look forward to my next meal here.

What a delightful experience. From the ambience and service to the food, everything was on point. We were celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary and we felt this was a very special experience. We chose the 10-course omnivore tasting menu and it did not disappoint. The only dish we didn't particularly enjoy was the squab. It was cooked perfectly and the ingredients were very interesting, but it felt too heavy as the ninth course and the flavor of the meat had a strong aftertaste. This, I'm sure is a matter of personal taste. I would have personally preferred the wagyu beef from the 6-course menu. The other nine courses, the amuse bouche, the special anniversary mousse dessert and the mignardises were all fabulous! The French and SE Asian flavors were delicate and complex at the same time, combining textures, temperatures and all four flavors plus umami. Just exquisite. Thank you for making our day so special. Shout out to our friendly server from Georgia.

This experience was incredible! I honestly cannot say anything negative about this fine dining experience. We chose the “Six” omnivore tasting. This was $268 per person. From the start, we had an incredible server. All encounters with Jean-Georges staff were positive. My favorite course was Course 3, the Peekytoe Crab. My least favorite (which was still great) was Course 4, the Black Sea Bass. I can only say I had a least favorite course because I’m just not much of a fan of Sea Bass, but if you, you will enjoy it. Flavorful is such an understatement when describing the food we were served. Only great things to say about Jean-Georges! Thank you. NOTE: Dress up! Even if you feel overdressed - you’re not. Everyone in this restaurant was in either a suit or a proper dress.

Came here on my bday. They offer 3 tasting menus; 6 or 10 course and a vegetarian option. Great food, well balanced on taste and texture. All cocktails were well made. Ed was our server, service was attentive and fun yet professional. One of the Michelin starred restaurants we would visit again.

Can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was. They made our anniversary so special and were able to accommodate my gluten allergy with gluten free options and substitutions which made me feel looked after. The wagyu was one of the best I've ever had, and that's saying something.

Decent Italian spot in the heart of The Bronx’s Little Italy. Our large group was well accommodated at a nice round table in the corner. I was not impressed with the food the same way I have been at other places in this neighborhood. The dishes were good but nothing great. Unfortunately the desserts really left something to be desired. I would choose a different place to experience the Italian food culture of this neighborhood.

Great causal restaurant with very friendly service. The plates are very large, which can be shared family style. Their very large stuffed artichoke was beyond delicious. I will come back to enjoy this artichoke!!! We came for inside dinner on Wednesday and a late lunch outside Thursday. Both days, the service and food were consistent and excellent.

Solid classic Italian staple on Arthur Avenue. We had a steamed clams dish that was excellent. My friend said the chicken francese was top notch... And I had a very fresh and delicious branzino.

So so good- got some arancini during a festival. Really can tell the quality and absolutely delicious. Service was quick and able to get food fast. Really recommend as you can tell the flavoring

Food was delicious! Loved the fresh pasta and pizza. Every bite was yummy.

Visiting for work. Got the margarita pizza with garlic, bread, chicken parmesean with penne pasta, olive oil sherbet and tiramisu. Super good all of it. Staff is very nice

Disappointed with the service from the manager, who made us wait for an exceptional amount of time after taking a table away from us that hostess was seating us at because we were two woman. Best Sangria drinks in NYC.

The food was really good. I did get the blackened steak with roasted potatoes and broccoli along with their version of seafood Alfredo. The customer service is superb. They were very welcoming and friendly. They do have free parking. If I have one complaint I would say that the potatoes was hard and the broccoli was bland but the customer service along with the Alfredo made me smile and that’s why I’m giving them five stars they had decent music.

A number of locals and regulars recommended we not miss Artie’s while visiting City Island. Quite an institution with a great staff. We met the owner as we were seated. We sat in the bar room but at a window table with the sunlight streaming in. Bar was almost full at 630p on a Monday night. Excellent sign. Great classic jazz playing on the sound system. The room was comfortable and warm and full of laughter. Our server took our drinks order and recommended some items off the regular menu and the specials board. Of particular interest were the largest steamer clams I’d ever seen. They buy their seafood fresh 3 times a week. Nothing goes in the freezer. All our food was delicious. The complimentary bread butter and olive oil was exactly what we needed with those clams. By the time dinner was over we’d made friends with a local couple at the bar who got married at the Yacht Club here in the late 80s. So we moved over and had a few more rounds and listened to stories about the old days in this nice little town. I highly recommend this place for very good food, excellent service, strong drinks, unique ambience and overall a grand time.

Arties is always a great dining experience - much different from the traditional seafood shacks on City Island (which are also very enjoyable). Aside from amazing, fresh seafood, Arties serves up some expertly prepared steaks, chops and Italian specialties. Staff across the board is always friendly and on point. Definitely a repeat, go-to spot.

My husband and I recently celebrated his birthday at Artie's Steak and Seafood, and the dining experience was exceptional. The service was outstanding, and I was particularly impressed by the staff's attentiveness and the pleasant atmosphere. Our waiter, Nicholas, provided excellent service. We began with the crab cakes as an appetizer, which were outstanding, ranking among the best we've encountered. The crab cakes were flavorful and perfectly crispy. For our entrees, we selected the steak, which was cooked to our specifications. The steak was tender, juicy, and well-seasoned. The portion size exceeded my expectations, providing leftovers for multiple meals. I highly recommend Artie's for special occasions or any dining experience. I anticipate returning soon.

Arties always delivers an amazing time. For Mother’s Day, they went above and beyond—flawless service (as always), incredible dishes, and cocktails that hit the spot. Easily one of the best restaurants around!

Food was good. Quiet place to dine. Nothing extraordinarily wow but good. The oyster oreganattas were great but not sure if they have them all the time.

The place is dim, looks a bit dated, and could definitely use a bit of freshening up, that said everyone of our entrées were cooked to perfection, the 22 Oz. Blackened Rib-Eye Steak Served with roasted red potatoes and vegetables will set you back like $65.00 but is worth every penny. large portions, attentive staff and great service, our wonderful waitress Esha made our trip from Bensonhurst Brooklyn worth the trip. We had mentioned that someone at the table was celebrating a birthday, she made sure to sing happy birthday as she brought her dessert to the table. Overall it was an amazing experience.

5-17 - Bad Service / Flavorless food. Bad Service. The place was empty at 3 pm on a Saturday. We had to ask for plates and utensils. The appetizers were brought to us before any plates or utensils. What are we supposed to eat with? The place was pretty empty, yet there was a lack of service for my party of 10. I had to wait a very long time to ask for a drink refill. No one came by every now and then to check to see if anyone in a party of 10 needed a refill or anything else. The drinks were heavily water down and FULL of ice. I ordered a single ginger ale and it was 75% ice and 25% ginger ale. It was full of water 15min later as the ice melted quickly. The other drinks my family ordered was also an entire glass of ice with minimal alcohol beverage. The same for my kids Shirley Temple. They didn't even want anything to drink again it was so bad. The food was very bland. The pollo al mojo was unseasoned. All they did was cook the white meat and then add the sauce on top after. The same could be said for the Salmon. It was also unseasoned and the sauce poured on top after. The Palomilla was the same thing, steak cooked without seasoning and the sauces added to it after. My children did not like the Arroz con pollo due to the lack of chicken. 90% rice 10% very small pieces of chicken. And my teenage kids are good eaters and know flavor. I ordered a side of avocado to go with my meal and they literally brought me an entire plate full of a whole sliced up avocado. The appetizers were much better than the meals. The emepandas were really good as well as the chicharon de pollo. These best part about our meal were their Maduros. Everyone agreed was amazing. I would not recommend coming here again unless you only ate appetizers and maduros. The tables were all very sticky from overuse and years of improper cleaning. The best part about this place was the live DJ and his music. Avoid this place if you want authentic Cuban food or drinks. And no, im not sorry for my detailed post. They need to do better.

I’ve been coming to Havana Cafe for over 10 years, and while it’s definitely changed over time, the vibe still hits every time. On my recent visit, the drinks were absolutely on point!! On point like a porcupine! The DJ kept the energy high, and the atmosphere was lively and fun as always. That said, the food wasn’t at its best this time. The white rice was a bit hard, and there weren’t many steak options to choose from. Service could’ve been more attentive too. Still, the overall experience made up for the downsides. If you’re coming for the music, drinks, and a great night out, Havana Cafe still delivers. Just hoping they tighten up the food and service a bit!

This restaurant is nice place to go to for after work, hanging out with friends and family, or just if you want to get something to eat or sit at a bar to have a drink. The music they play is relaxing and sometimes loud but you can still talk and have a great time. I recommend this restaurant 100%.

It was really delicious. Vegan Paella was really worth getting we shared it so it was anice amount of food. The fried Yuca also good

I absolutely adore Havana café; it's truly one of my favorite spots to unwind and enjoy a meal. The ambiance and general atmosphere of the café is simply amazing 👏, creating a perfect setting for relaxation. When it comes to the food, I'm always blown away by the delicious dishes they offer. One of my all-time favorite dishes there is the red snapper; its flavors are simply divine. Every time I visit, I'm greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend checking out this delightful café whenever you have the chance! #HavanaCafe #FoodieFavorite #AmazingAtmosphere #RedSnapperLove

Food is very flavorful and cooked to perfection. Drinks are good as well.

Had the salmon and it was delicious. The mojitos are dangerous lol. It was standup comedy night and I have respect for anyone who can get up in front of a bunch of strangers to perform anything. They kept topics light, engaged with the audience and it was overall entertaining. The music is always a vibe. Love this place!

It almost felt like a quick trip to the Dominican Republic. I really like Dominican food — the fried chicken (chicharron de pollo) and pork(chicharron), the plátanos, the cheese, rice with beans… even the Dominican beer. I just love it all. Other Dominican spots I’ve been to, the staff usually don’t speak English, so it was awesome that our server actually could. Had a great time overall, but wow — the bathroom smell was rough.

Excellent service, best cubano ever. The sancochado was delicious. And their jugo de piña and batido de guanabana. Literally loved everything here, would prioritize eating here again next time in New York. Me encantó :)

We took the subway to Washington Heights to explore the neighborhoods and worked up an appetite. I picked out the Malecon restaurant in advance after reviewing the menu and the many good reviews. 

We were seated quickly and spent a few minutes looking over the substantial menu. 

I chose one of the daily specials and my wife selected what she thought would be lighter a bowl of their Sopa De Pollo. A server brought a plate of warm bread and after a few minutes our food arrived - it was plentiful! I enjoyed the Pernil which was slow-roasted marinated pork, served with a side of Moro Gandules (mixed rice with pigeon peas). The pork was so very tender and flavorful - would definitely order again. Honestly, I was not a fan of the mixed rice (I do not love peas) but that’s my fault for ordering. My dining partner enjoyed her bowl of Sopa De Pollo, flavorful broth with lots of big chunks of Chicken. We shared a plate of Maduros (sweet fried plantains). So tasty. The prices were very affordable and the serving plentiful. Although I thoroughly enjoyed my Pork, next time I would order one of the dishes with the roast chicken (you can see the rotisserie in the front window and an employee cutting up the freshly roasted chicken as you enter the restaurant.

Great tasting food, Dominican Style food. Be prepared for well seasoned dishes is so tasty. It's a usually busy place & the people that work there are polite. The only thing that I wish was better is more Dominican Music & if they would put the volume up a little more hahaha I loved their smoothies too which are great in the hot weather

First time ever trying Dominican cuisine. Had Mofongo with shrimp, maduros, black beans and rice. Service was fantastic. Can’t wait to return.

Parking was insane but the food was fire 🔥 they had a 10 but the chicharon wasent crispy enough so yu get a 8/10 but overall the cchicken was incredible and the Mofongo too ask for more green sauce btw

Came for takeout on a Saturday night, it was bumping'. Smelled incredible. Surprised and delighted to see carrot cake on the menu. Not too sweet. Incredibly moist. Wow

OMG the food was amazing & to have been here for 11 years & I've never been is crazy. We have definitely found us a new breakfast/brunch spot. The staff was also friendly which is very important to me . Come try this place, you won't be disappointed. SB: I'm very hard to impress when it comes to food because I'm an amazing cook. 😂

An absolutely fantastic experience! My pancakes were delicious, and my sister declared her shrimp and parmesan grits the “best meal I've had all weekend.” The service was equally impressive—prompt and accurate. Highly recommend this spot!

I wanted to love this place so badly!! The ambiance and service were wonderful!!! This was my first time in Harlem and I was excited to try this Caribbean spot. I ordered the Jerk Chicken and waffles, and was surprisingly underwhelmed. The jerk chicken was dry and got cold quickly. It also could have used a bit more spices to bring out the flavor. The waffles were soft, which I liked, but everything got cold really quickly. My friend also didn’t finish her burger (and she’s Caribbean 🥴) The codfish fritters were the best thing I had and would order them again. The atmosphere was great, music was a vibe, the service was wonderful! Just wish the food hit like everything else did as well.

Decided to try The Edge Harlem because the menu seemed interesting. My husband had the pancakes which he enjoyed amd i had the salad which was ,ok. I also ordered the codfish fritters which were ok as well. I was expecting to taste more of the fish chunks- but there was more flour added. The atmosphere is comfy and cool. I wasnt impressed but I would give it another try.

Had a nice lunch brunch with my colleagues. Service was good and accommodating food arrived in good time and at the perfect temperature. Atmosphere is busy but quaint enough to hear your group talk.

Walked in to make a lunch reservation for a big party for the same day. For this very professional staff it was not a problem. We were seated on time and served a great meal that we all enjoyed at a leisurely pace. Among the range of choices- tuna melt, chicken and waffles, coconut fishburger, and others everyone loved their dishes. An impressive crowd for a Thursday afternoon but the staff handled everything with ease. Will return with great pleasure anytime.

This is a nice little hidden good mind. They have great drinks and good food. Their prices are very reasonable. I had the coconut fish plat and it tasted very good. Worth the trip

It was a pretty standard Korean barbecue place. Nothing impressive but nothing went wrong! People can for barbecue more than regular single meals.

Great food! A lot of kbbq places either give really little food or bad tasting side dishes, but we got a lot of meat and a lot of tasty side dishes. I also really enjoyed the naeongmyun. It wasn't the full size one, just a taster, but even that was a bigger serving than anticipated. The people here are all really nice and the service was great!!!

Always a great experience eating at Mapo; the staff is always so friendly and accommodating. I recommend the seafood soup and the marinated steak.

This is my 5th time to eat at this restaurant. We usually go there for dinner. The food is quite tasty, delicious and friendly. The auntie who is the staff there is quite lovely. But this time I went to eat in the afternoon, I got a rather bad service. She brought the hot pot and turned on the gas and walked away. I'm not sure how many minutes it took to eat because I waited until the fish was mushy. Actually, the fish should be in pieces, but we don't know if she will come back to tell us that the food is ready and can be eaten immediately. But she didn't say anything and walked away. The food didn't taste very good. So I decided to help myself. But what's worse is that after we paid the bill, the staff came back with the receipt and she asked for a tip in cash. I think the service today was very bad and I think she shouldn't have said that. I feel very sad today

After the Mets game, we wanted to grab something to eat. We originally intended to dine at a different bbq spot but there was a wait time so decided to check this place out. We got seated right away. We ordered soju and beer and the waitress helped us order the right amount of meat. We got the marinated galbi and brisket. Love how they give you so much banchan, soup, and steamed eggs. We were so full and the service was great. The only downfall was how rushed we were to place our order and close our tab. We didn’t ask for the check but the waitress brought it out. It seemed like they were closing soon which is why they probably were rushing but we were still eating and drinking and would’ve probably ordered more drinks. Otherwise, solid kbbq spot for galbi!

They serve a wide variety of side dishes, about a dozen in total, and almost all taste pretty good. An aunty will help grill the meat, though when it’s busy she might not be able to keep up. The grill runs quiet hot so can enjoy the meat quickly. I highly recommend the G3, the meat is wonderfully tender. Surprisingly, the yukgaejang is reall spicy yet tasty, but if can’t handle spice it’s better to skip it.

Ordered the wood charcoal beef rib an it was extremely chewy and difficult to eat. You can see from my picture how much connective tissue there is. Very disappointed with the quality considering the high price.

Great variety of foods to sample. Clear pricing. Family friendly. Crowded enough to move food but not too crowded that it’s squished. We loved the Venezuelan corn cakes. I recommend going with a friend to share.

Enjoyed it here. The food was small bites and all under $6. They accept cash and card. It's a great way to learn the food of different cultures. There are also other vendors with candles and portraits. You can listen to a live band. Bring a blanket to sit in the grass if the seating area is filled.

Cool food experience with music. It would’ve been nicer if they had more seating. Honestly we probably would’ve stayed longer and bought a lot more food if there was more seating. The food was good for a decent price. Glad I experienced it, but not sure that it’s worth a return trip.

I've been attending the QNM for many years now (since they first started) - what I'm most fond of is the mixed crowd (hello, it's Queens where it's like a mini world of its own- yet you have "outsiders" attending). The difference foods, the vibe, music- just the atmosphere overall. I wouldn't recommend the first day (they open for their season- a bit dry ...as in not that much crowd or food vendors). Overall it is awesome. So make sure you attend next year an many more💃🏽💃🏽👍🏽

Had an amazing time trying different foods from different countries and cultures. Everything was priced at $5-$6. Enough to taste for two people without getting full and leaving room to taste other vendors. Lines move pretty quickly. Crowd died down around 8-9pm so lines were not as long. The music was nice.

Always a great place to try various ethnic food all in one spot. Just a few stop from willets point, and a 15min walk from the train, usually go after a mets game, instead of spending $30-40ea at the game you can come here and fill up for $30 for two people. They also have beer and wine stations. Portable bathrooms which are surprisingly very clean. The food here is very fresh and usually cooked to order to expect long lines. Majority of vendors take card but bring cash if you want beer/wine. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area

”Queens Night Market” is a food event in Queens where the largest immigrant area in New York City, showcasing the food cultures of South America, Asia, Europe, and the Caribbean etc. You can enjoy high-quality international cuisine that goes beyond street food under $6. As a Queens resident, I am happy and proud of this wonderful event. what we(my husband & I) ate there (Food, vender, price, my score) ・Beef & rice(15 Mister Bocadillos) $6.00 10/10 ・ Pork Stir-fried Noodles(12 Hong Kong Street Food) $5.00 10/10 ・Beef & Cheese chachapa(20 Ay.cachapas) $6.00 10/10 ・Beef Banh Mi( 33 Banh Mi Thai Duong) $6.00 10/10 ・Brazilian Steak Sandwich(49 Brazilicious Brazilian) $6.00 9/10 ・Cheese Rolls(49 Brazilicious Brazilian) $6.00 7/10 Summary *Open every Saturday from 4:00 pm - midnight starting April 19th through October 25th(excluding the US Open from August 23th - September 6th.) *Free admission *Food under $6 *cash only (ATM available) *If you go early the line is short(In our case, we arrived there at 4PM. No line at all) We brought our own containers to take the food home with us, which was a great idea.We spent less than $30. We highly recommend.

Best place for local cheap and tasty Spanish food on the go.Their Pasteles and Alcapurrias are delicious.All their drinks are tasty.No place to sit they took chairs away during Covid because local homeless would lounge around other than that place is worth going for the food and prices.You can eat in there standing.Variety of the menu and the prices makes the place a Gem.

Took a quick run to Cuchifritos during a layover to try them out. DID NOT disappoint! Food was delish and service was great!! My only little small con is that it gets PACKED! Most likely wont find a seat if you go while it's busy, but absolutely worth trying!

Took my coworkers from miami all the way here and was treated bad, the service was horrible, only 2 ladies working and the one who kept taking my order kept pushing me aside taking other orders and I was there with two others. Food was good, portion size was good, price was good but service was shit!

The food is very delicious good and affordable. Get your food to go the area is not the best BUT lots of police presence so you will be safe. Try their coco drink

Hadn't been there since I was a child. The place still looks the same welcoming but not bougie. The quick chatter of friendly service and customers, the smells slowly transformed me to a time long ago. I placed my order, an alcapuria and a coconut drink, my favorite order as a child. The moment of truth... the alcapuria did not disappoint, the best alcapuria I have had in years. However, it was the coconut juice, the flavor was what I remembered... It was as if I had been transported back in time. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place.

This is the “pernil mofongo” that i was provided and not even the nasty sauce that was provided worked for it plus the salad is disgusting it taste like someone threw it on the floor stepped on it and served it in a plate and it don’t even have not one pinch of garlic smashed in it…disgusting and dissapointed.

Quick stop for food this place as been here for years I haven't come in probably over 10years I thought my mom had got me the crispy chicken chunks but got me fried chicken instead. It was ok the potato meat patties was good.

Do not continue mixing. The rice from 1 day ago with today's smells bad. Please😔😷

Excellent! Visited from upstate Ny and they were so amazing to me and the family. My daughter loved their food and loved their potatoes in their stew chicken and they made my daughter feel special by giving her extra while eating and to take home . Felt like I was with family. Great food great everything don’t let the negative reviews keep you away, I Will be back !

I’m very disappointed in these people!!! I ordered an alcapurria, I realized it didn’t taste fresh at all and I ended up throwing it out. Throughout the rest of my day, I was not feeling well, I couldn’t eat at all and I was feeling super nauseous. Later that night I woke up and vomited. I had to miss out on work. They are not using fresh ingredients, they have the same food out for days and are using unclean oils to cook their food in. As I passed by their restaurant the other day I noticed they have a grade C up for health inspection. Please do not go here!!!

Great Latin Puerto Rican and American food. Located on East 149th near Lincoln Hospital and CVS, long lines most of time. The pig is their pleasure from the ears to the feet , including the stomach ( chittlings ) Yes!. The fried pork is my favorite. Oxtails on Saturdays and rice and beans and rotisserie chicken Everyday. Glad they are in my neighbor !

Good food but keep in mind they’re hours are not up to date wasted my time coming here at 9 Pm and they wasn’t even open smh!!!!

I was actually disappointed after driving thirty minutes to this cuchifrito. I had hoped to grabbed a tasty quick bite to eat while doing a long drive but feed my son and invite my boyfriend to try new foods he never had before. I spent almost $50 on empanadas, relleno de papa, alcapurrias and chicharrón. The food was stale, wasn’t warm and I expected more flavor, it tasted bland. Also my boyfriend bit into a piece of bone that was in the empanada. The relleno de papa barely had meat. The lady seemed impatient and bothered. I don’t normally leave reviews but I know the food could have been better. I’ve had food there once before dining in and the food was good. I would say maybe enjoy the food while dining in.

This place use to be so good but now the food Is so bland I wish the old chef would come back. This is suppose to be stew chicken with white rice. Looks so nasty taste mediocre

Amazingly awesome night rocking at Yankee Stadium! ⚾🎸 From the electric energy in the stands to the mouthwatering food (hello loaded fries & steaks and sandwiches 👀🔥), everything was top-tier! But what really made the night unforgettable? The entire staff—from the gates to the vendors to the ushers—every single person was welcoming, professional, and clearly treated each other like family. 💙

The worst meal we’ve had since we’ve been in NYC. Went there after Yankees tour. Ordered Bloody Marys, Chicken Sliders, and chicken/ steak Southwest Salad. All terrible. Sat at the bar. Only five total people at the bar but server was so absent. Bloody Marys were watery, chicken on sliders was so dry, steak was super tough and cold, and lettuce was browning. Only ate a few bites but server never asked if it was good/all ok. Would avoid eating here. Spent $107 for three meals. Atmosphere was super cool though!

Great experience with Anna! Excellent service and great atmosphere. We toured the stadium and then have a relaxing late lunch at Hard Rock. Beer was cold, food was good, and atmosphere is always fun, the kids loved it!!!

It was simply awesome. Super friendly and first-class service. The cheesecake tasted absolutely delicious, and I even bought a souvenir T-shirt from the rock shop at the end.

Hard Rock Cafe at Yankee Stadium had excellent service. Staff ensured my burger was made without seasoning perfectly. Friendly and attentive.

Our waitress Erica was amazing! She was easy to talk to and made our dinner a fun experience! Erica recommended one of the new burgers..The New York Burger and WOW was it fantastic. We frequent the restaurant often before games and the Supervisor Yvette is always friendly and accommodating along with the manager Christos. They are constantly walking the floor making sure your dinning experience is meeting your expectations. If your around the stadium on a game day I highly recommend stopping in for drinks and a bite to eat.

The Hard Rock Cafe has a fun, lively vibe that makes it the perfect place to grab a bite before a Yankees game. The hospitality here really stands out. From the host desk to the servers and manager, everyone is friendly, attentive, and efficient. They always make us feel welcome and frequently check-in without being overbearing. They know exactly how to strike the perfect balance of being efficient but never making you feel rushed. A special thank you to Barbara who was our amazing server on Thursday. Whether it was extra napkins, or water refills, she was always one step ahead. We never had to flag her down, she anticipated what we needed and made sure we were having a great experience. Barbara went beyond just excellent service, she took the time to chat and made everyone feel right at home. Many thanks to Christos, the manager, for taking care of us. He went out of his way to stop by our table during what was clearly a busy time. He checked-in to make sure everything was going well and that we were enjoying our dining experience. You can see how hard he works to try and accommodate everyone. The level of service here really shines and shows how well the entire staff works together as a team. We really enjoy the food at the Hard Rock and appreciate the variety on the menu. The portion sizes are generous, which is always a plus. Appetizers are easy to share, making it great for our party of 6. Our go-to appetizers are the flatbreads and the nachos. They’re always made just right, with the perfect amount of melted cheese and served at just the right temperature, delicious! Their burgers are fantastic. You can easily customize your order. They have the right amount of seasoning and are never dry. The fried chicken sandwich is another one of our favorites, it’s full of flavor and tender. The perfect combination of great food, friendly people, and a well-run space keeps us coming back. The Hard Rock really gets it right!

Was visitng in the area and stopped by to eat. The last few times we visited City Island, the experience wasn't so great. The good restaurants are long gone and the ones left are commercialized. We decided to stop and grab a bite. It has been a super long time I've dined here. The food was great! Fresh and good portions! Service was great! Danielle was our waitress. She was super friendly and attentive! The white sangria was delicious! It is great to know that there is still a family owned establishment that values great service and even greater food. On our way out we stopped to chat quickly with Joe the owner! Kudos to you and your team! I highly recommend this restaurant! When back in the area, we'll definitely visit again!!

First time visiting and it did not disappoint! The food is excellent and the portions are huge! You will leave stuffed! The garlic bread is awesome! I had the jumbo shrimp Parmesan and it was delicious! When they say jumbo, they mean gigantic! My friend had the special with the lobster tail and it was also delicious! And to top it off, the service was great! Our sever was Oscar and he took care of us! This is definitely a place to try!

This place is awesome. We sat on the porch overlooking the water. That garlic bread is everything people claim. Just amazing. I knocked off one star because the lobster was overcooked. But I'll still be back. Beware, this place is not cheap. Steve was just phenomenal! 💸💸

Outstanding experience! Victor is the man. Try to get a table outside or in the back if possible for more atmosphere. Great value in the enormous entrees - shared 2 entrees between 3 people and it was more than enough food. Everything was delicious. Can’t wait to return.

We recently visited City Island Lobster House to celebrate a friend’s birthday and had a truly wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were exceptionally welcoming, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The food was outstanding — flavorful, well-prepared, and served in shareable portions that made dining together even more enjoyable. Our server, Anthony, was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. He ensured our table was well taken care of throughout the evening, and our drinks were consistently perfect. Jojo, the owner, was friendly and approachable, which added a personal touch to our visit. Overall, the atmosphere was vibrant and comfortable, making us feel genuinely appreciated as guests. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to City Island Lobster House.

I visited City Island Lobster House after hearing amazing things about it, and I was really looking forward to it. My date had been there before and enjoyed it, so my expectations were pretty high. The food was tasty and the service was okay, but honestly, I left feeling a bit disappointed. I wanted to sit by the edge to enjoy the ocean view, but we were told those tables were only for large groups, so my partner and I (just the two of us) weren’t allowed to sit there. What really confused me was that a group of three came in shortly after. They could have easily sat at one of the smaller tables, but the staff brought out a table and let them sit right by the edge — exactly where we had asked to sit. So while the food was good, the experience didn’t meet my expectations, especially after all the great things I had heard. I just expected a little more.

Tried it for the first time today Oscar was our server a very professional server very nice man, The food was great , The portions are nice sized and the flavors are excellent, definitely worth going back over and over

Emilia’s 2331 Arthur Ave. Bronx, NY 10458 Lasagna : Do not touch the plate because it is piping hot. The Mozzarella cheese has a perfect char; watch out for the cheese pull. The noodles are hand pulled one by one and layered with ground beef.

Not only the pasta, which was really good, but the bread, the tomato sauce, the service. Everything outstanding! The small patio on the back is really nice, even on a super hot day like today we had a very pleasant lunch. If like us you came to the zoo and are looking for a place near by, this is highly recommended.

I’ve been going to Emilia’s since 1987 and love it. The stuffed vegetarian artichoke is out of this world. Salad with arugula and fennel is fresh and delicious. The outdoor patio is lovely. Highly recommend.

This is an old-school solid Italian eatery. Service was a bit slow at first, we were a party of 5. Staff was pleasant, Drinks and apps were good - solid, not over-the-top. The zucchini flowers were good but oil-heavy. The pork braciole was a bit on the dry side but caught my attention since it's not often seen on menus. The Wild boar pappardelle was delicious. Cannoli & cheese cake were enjoyed. Portion sizes were plentiful. All in all, as our dear friend Dom would say: "Not thrilling but nice".

I wanted something from an outdated menu that I found online and they were happy to make it since they had all ingredients, the price was higher but I didn’t mind. Server checked on us a good amount of time and was very nice. Food was so good I can’t wait to come again. We sat outside, they had fans to keep us cool, and the water fall was such a nice view. Can’t wait to visit again :)

Such a great dinner - this is a humble and honest restaurant with Italian-American classics executed really well. Super friendly service, relaxed atmosphere. Dinner here was a highlight of our New York visit.

There are so many great restaurants in Little Italy The Bronx to choose from but Emilia’s is a definite must try. The service: Amazing, can’t get better. The waitress was attentive and gave great recommendations. She was very friendly and warm. The owner came over and spoke to us. It was just a warm cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend just for the service. The food: incredibly delicious. The red sauce was light and crisp. Very refreshing and delicious. The Chicken parm is the greatest of all time. The bar: full bar with cocktails and beer. Made perfect and is not insanely expensive. Highly recommend.
