It was pretty crowded on a weekend morning. I always walk by this spot to and from work and it was…read morealways closed. I always wondered what they served and was so excited to visit. Their tiramisu was well spoken so we knew we had to try it. We started with dessert first and it was delicious. Amazing cheese cake, amazing tiramisu. For food we got an omelet, which was delicious. Then we also got the cream cheese toast with fresh fruits, which my partner and I felt like was just not in. I ate the fruits and half a french toast bagel and ended up eating his toasted bread butter. I just really didn't like how the french toast and cream cheese and maple syrup tasted together. Just kinda weird and not good. Nonetheless, great omelet and great dessert.

This little stretch has a few good places to eat. Zaza is one of them! They close early (despite…read morehaving what they call "dinner offerings," but they close at 3pm each day). I came for a brunch once, they do offer a full bar. But also great coffees! My husband noticed they have a "frites bar," which has all kind of delicious fry offerings. He got the Zaza fries which is a chicken a La vodka variety, and the disco fries are waffle fries with mozz and gravy. I didn't know what to expect but let me tell you... it was great!! So good I actually brought some home. I think they're shareable. The service was pretty good. Again I think the only drawback is that they close so early? I suppose they have their reasons. Also save 10% by paying in cash! This has quickly become a preferred destination for us.

Maybe it's because I got my pad thai and pad see ew to go, but neither blew me away. The pad thai was too sweet and one-note; no scallions/garlic chives or beansprouts to be seen. The pad see ew was lacking in flavor and almost bland; hardly any (or maybe no?) Chinese broccoli (gai lan) at all. The prices were good for Thai food in FiDi in 2026 but I probably wouldn't order from here again. Seems like a waste of calories and stomach space ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Both the cashier and the individual who prepared my meal were charming. However, this establishment should evaluate one of their employees and assess his attitude. Numerous other reviews mention his unpleasant demeanor. After completing my purchase, I proceeded to an empty table that had a menu on it. I removed the menu and placed it on a nearby table that was marked with a "Reserved" sign. It is worth noting that several other tables also had a "RESERVED" sign, except for this one. A short Hispanic/Latino male wearing glasses approached me and stated, "Ma'am, this menu is on the table because it is reserved for Happy Hour." He returned the menu and walked away without offering me an alternative seating option, leaving me to wonder about his purpose. It was only after I asked him for the third time, "Should I look for tables that are completely empty?" that he replied, "Yes," in a clearly irritated tone. I apologize for being such an inconvenience to you, Sir. It seems this employee has lost sight of his responsibilities. His tone, behavior, and demeanor were entirely inappropriate and unnecessary. He exhibited rudeness and a lack of professionalism. Such conduct is a blatant display of disrespect and overshadows the quality of the food and the pleasantness of the other staff members. In conclusion, there are numerous other excellent options available at Hudson Eats. I recommend that you consider skipping this location of Tartinery.

I'd been curious about Tartinery and finally decided to try it out for lunch. I ordered the quinoa…read morebowl ($17) and added chicken ($4.50) to it. The woman who took my order was very pleasant, and removing a component of the bowl at my request didn't faze her at all. It didn't take very long before my order was ready; I just waited by the pastries which did look tasty. The quinoa bowl comes with spinach, Brussels sprouts, edamame, toasted almond slices, avocado, mint, and cilantro. It wasn't the biggest size, and I found myself hungry a little later in the afternoon. Also, the dressing didn't really stand out. The best parts were the toasted almond slivers and the generous portion of avocado that was included. I really wanted to like Tartinery more, but there are better deals to be had in Hudson Eats.

The food was fresh and delicious. I had the chicken enchiladas that were heavy on the chicken with delicious sauce and slightly crispy cheese on top.

I ordered the carne asada and I did not expect it to look like it was flattened before grilling. I think the price didnt meet the expectation. Of course, each place has their own rendition of dishes, but this was not what anyone would expect for a carne asada entree. The service was good, nothing over the top and nothing underwhelming. I will say that I would probably stop by for a quick drink because the vibes were right. Cute Mexican theme with smaller tables for chill vibes and small conversations. I would say it would be great for a party of 1-4. The carne asada needs work, but the soup was delicious and great for the NYC winter :)

The food was the absolute highlight of the night: - Appetizers: The chipotle paneer was super delicious, and the Delhi aloo and beet chaat was easily our favorite starter--unique, vibrant, and bursting with flavor. The crispy okra and bhel was also a fun, crunchy bite. - Mains: Both entrees were phenomenal. Madam Ji's dal was rich and comforting, and the Old Delhi makhani paneer paired perfectly with the fresh garlic naan. - Dessert: We rounded things off with the tiramisu, which was a lovely, satisfying finish. Unfortunately, the drinks fell completely flat. The Madam Ji Martini was really bad, and both the Jab We Drink and Raat Ki Raani cocktails were distinctly subpar. None of them lived up to the quality coming out of the kitchen. Service was also visibly stretched thin. There were only two staff members working the floor, and one of them was double-duty bartending. The staff did what they could, but having so few hands on deck slowed things down. Come here hungry for the food--it's exceptional--just stick to wine or beer instead of the specialty cocktails.

The owner showed no remorse and instead argued that it was not a full-priced meal, as if that justified providing only one tiny piece of protein for dinner. I've received much more substantial Too Good To Go meals from Just Salad, with enough food and protein to make a satisfying dinner. In comparison, this business seems more interested in squeezing every penny out of its customers than providing a reasonable meal. It felt like they simply sold their "not enough left to go" leftovers as a Too Good To Go meal without any consideration for customers' nutrition or satisfaction. Definitely avoid!!!!!
