Babyyy this ain't nothing but a fancy diner. I came here with my friend after viewing a fashion show during NYFW. This place was recommended by the staff of the hotel nearby. The place itself is nice. Very pretty and gives an upscale feel. The food is trash and definitely not worth the money I paid for it! I ordered a chicken and waffles and as you can see from the picture, it was two chicken strips and a dessert waffle. I literally could've done this myself. Not to mention the chicken tenders being salty! The drink was also trash. Very watered down with tons of ice. My friend wanted to take our drinks to go but our waiter wouldn't let us despite showing him that the law to had permitted take out drinks from restaurants again recently. He was also very snarky about it. Then when we spoke to the manager she said she would be right back to talk further and she never came back lol. There are tons of other restaurants that would be worth it. This ain't one of them. read more

Bond 45 - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Bond 45 is one of my favorite theater district restaurants. In a city filled with excellent Italian food served in a wide variety of atmospheres, from tiny trattorias to expansive, family style mess halls, Bond 45 manages to create a meaningfully unique experience. To begin with, the spacious restaurant with large, upscale bar, feels more like a steakhouse than a red sauce joint. A feeling that's supported by the louder than usual, clubby atmosphere. Cocktails are first rate, and you might think you're sitting in Gallagher's or Delmonico's. It's nice. When it comes to food, yes, they have many of the expected Italian starters and some very good, house-baked breads, but the star of the show is the expansive antipasto bar, which features a large selection of meats, cheeses, salads, hot and cold Italian specialties, seafood and garden-fresh vegetables that have been marinated or roasted. You could easily eat this with bread and drinks and be done -- but that would mean skipping fine pastas and exceptional entrees from chicken parmigiana to steak and braised short ribs. Bond 45 is always busy and buzzy in the 2 hours leading up to curtain time, and if you make a reservation you can absolutely get in and out in time to catch your show -- but when you have a chance, file in after the theater rush, and sit down for a leisurely and very memorable fine dinner. read more

The staff are very friendly and attentive. The restaurant it's self is very beautiful, clean and unique. The caprese was delicious. The burrata was soft and the tomatoes were perfectly ripe. The rigatoni came out much more raw than al dente, it was crunchy in the middle. They redid it for me and it was still much more al dente than I'd like. Very hard in the middle, would get stuck in my teeth. No soda refills, but they were very prompt with water refills. The chicken parm was flavorful and crunchy. We added pasta with garlic and oil on the side and that was good as well. The meatballs were a little overcooked on the outside but pink in the middle. Flavorful. Maybe a little dry on the outside. The limoncello tart was the star of the show, the whipped cream on the side was delicate and delicious. The tart was creamy, had that perfect tart bite. Very yummy, wish we lived close by just for a slice of that. We used the inKind app to get 30 off of 100+ which was great and made it a better experience. read more

The food was cold and the service was horrendous. It's Thanksgiving but the restaurant wasn't overly busy. Our bread came without oil or butter so we ate it dry. When the waiter finally showed back up, he refused to bring us another loaf. Instead, he brought one glass of champagne as a peace offering. Honestly, I can't think of anything positive. Worst $200 meal ever. read more

Super nice place with beautiful interiors and amazing service! The food wasn't amazing in my opinion. I ordered the omelet and it was just okay, as was the bread served with it.

Was there for dinner last night. Appetizers is good , and it came promptly. Dinner was terrible, had the fish , it was salted and excessive tomatoes sauce, partner had the fresh dish, it was chewy and rubbery, it insipid, he ate nothing of it . Our server, ruin the entire experience, forget her name , she is the blond witn an Irish accent, she is loud and can't fully comprehend her. After we finish with our appetizers, we were ignored for over 20 minutes, our main course never arrived until we had to inquired from the runner to send her and yet she never come to inquire from us . The food is not worth for the price per an insipid entree and Mediocre service . I would have never give gratuity , but my partner gives a decent amount. I do not recommend this restaurant. read more

I'm 68 and entered the restaurant for a cocktail at the bar. The host stopped me when I was headed to the restroom. He refused to allow me to go downstairs. He claimed I was not a customer because I came in the front door. He wanted me to sit at the bar before going to relieve myself. I chose to leave. I had been a loyal customer for many years. I will never return or recommend Bond 45 again. read more

i took a trip to bond45 with my dad because we were seeing hamilton. i made a reservation to be safe, though i don't think it wouldn't been necessary. however, i've wanted to see hamilton for YEARS, so being late was not an option. we were seated and our waiter was friendly & attentive. when looking over the menu, be prepared to put everything in at once. it'll come out separately (appetizers and entrees) but everything needs to be decided on. this wasn't an issue because i usually go for a pasta dish on any menu, my dad typically opts for steak, so on & so forth. for the appetizer, the mozzarella stick is giant but you can cut it into pieces and it's delectable ooey, gooey goodness. the marinara has tomato chunks and it tasted really fresh. the meatballs were okay, i'd skip them next time. i asked what my dad thought about his steak and he said it was great. it was very tender and flavorful. i loved my pasta. i was a little worried with the lemon butter sauce description, as sometimes it comes off as oily and lacks flavor but that wasn't the case here. the pasta was fresh and cooked to perfection and the sauce was decadent but light all at the same time. there's one shared restroom on the first floor, so it can get a bit backed up but i heard one of the workers say something about another restroom being downstairs. as stated, it wasn't crowded when we went, so i didn't have to wait long. overall, i enjoyed this meal. the restaurant is right across the street from richard rogers theatre! check it out :). read more

I love the ambiance of this place, it's classy and charming. Service was fantastic and easy. The food was good, we ordered the meatball appetizer- tender and delicious sauce.

My husband and I absolutely loved our experience at Bond 45. The menu is diverse and seems to include something for just about everyone, whether a dietary preference or restriction. Our waiter was so friendly, attentive and, even more importantly, was knowledgeable about menu options that could accommodate my gluten allergy. The food was phenomenal and the price matched the quality. Portion sizes are huge! My husband also said that this was the first ever that my mocktail may have been "cooler" than his regular drink, haha. We learned they have a comedy club below and so you could hear the show a little but not bad. The ambiance is great and offers the option of a bar and/or dining room experience depending on what you are looking for. Situated perfectly near time square and those attending a show next door. read more

I don't even know where to begin with the experience my wife and I had here. As I was bombarded with one odd experience after another I opened my notes app on my Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max. The 4 points were: "guy waving his hand" "ticklish manager" "3 bacons" "nose on lemon." We had left the stranger things show and were looking for somewhere to eat close by. It had been a long day and we just wanted to eat and get to bed. I pulled out my Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max to check and this place happened to be right across the street. We walked in and were seated almost immediately. That should've been the first red flag on a Friday night in NYC. When you walk in there's what they call the "antipasto bar" immediately in front of you. It is an assortment of vegetables under hot lights and nothing about it looks appetizing. I suppose if I were a hungry rabbit or a chinchilla I may have found it enticing but alas I am neither. I took a quick glance around the room and didn't spot any either which left me wondering who sees this and thinks "oh my god, oh my god, hurry up and seat me already so I can get a plate of those heirloom carrots. They've been under those hot lights for 3 hours, I swear if they sell out before I can get a plate I'm gonna lose it." Nobody thinks this. A chinchilla perhaps. But no human being is walking by that set up and thinking "wow this looks delicious." We were taken to our table (I don't know why I allowed this meal to even begin after that but off we go). I ordered pasta carbonara and wife ordered steak. The food was not good. The pasta carbonara comes with guanciale which is pork jowl. It's basically bacon. If you want to yell at me and say it's not bacon feel free to do so. The point of this is that there are 3 dime sized pieces on top. THREE. Imagine getting food that has bits of bacon on it and immediately knowing how many there are on first glance. Don't even give me the bacon if that's how it's gonna be. If you're reading this and going nuts because I'm calling it bacon I'm sorry but it is just more expensive bacon. That's how it's going to be. I was on my second bacon bit when the manager and a few servers came by to sing Happy Birthday to someone at the table next to us. They finished and the manager began walking back to the front of the place. As he passed our table our beverage server walked by at the same time. The manager did "tickle fingers" and lunged in his direction. There's no other name for it. If you have a smile on your face and wiggle your fingers with upward facing palms in the direction of someone, they are going to think "oh my god, oh my god, I'm about to get tickled." The beverage server did not look amused at all (not upset, but just like an "every night with this guy and his tickle fingers" type of look) and he said "no no no" and kept walking. What am I supposed to do with that??? Now I'm on my third bacon bit and I have to unbutton my pants because WOW these are filling. We're seated towards the back and my wife is seated where she can see the bar and the entire restaurant. I see her look up and watching something. She then tells me "our waiter just looked at me and waved his hand over his neck." Not with his thumb in like a "meet me on the playground and I'm gonna box your ears" type of way. Like a whole hand wave like he was trying to stop her from doing something. No context, never any explanation and from where we were seated there was no mistake that it was intended for her/us. Maybe I shouldn't have eaten that third bacon bit but it's too late now. The food is average by the way, 6/10. But now we've got what may be the strangest part. We are waiting for our bill and the server is getting water for someone at the table next to us. He fills the glass and smells the water. Nose to glass. I don't care what you think you smelled, I will roll the dice on whatever you thought you smelled if it means you didn't put your nose on the edge of my cup. It's not over. He puts a lemon on the rim of the cup and then smells that. Close enough that his nose touches the lemon. Why are we smelling things??? He then walks it over and just gives it to the lady and walks away. What was the purpose of that entire sequence. What did he think he smelled, did the lemon fix it, why did he have to touch it with his nose, was there any part of this where he was thinking I shouldn't give this water to this lady? Did the lemon fix a problem with the water? Was there ever a problem? How often does that guy get threatened with tickle fingers? Because he seemed like it happened often enough that he was sick of it. Life is so full of questions. read more

The absolute worst place ever! We apprised them of our allergies: mushrooms, cheese, and peanuts. This is what they served the birthday girl, the one with allergies: grilled mushrooms and something covered in cheese. When I informed the manager, he didn't even apologize. He just gave excuses on why it happened. I'm sorry, but something that can kill someone is more than a mistake, especially when they repeated the allergies right before bringing them out. DO NOT GO HERE if you have allergies. The rest of the food was just ok, not worth the hassle or the price. UPDATE: they did comp us desserts since we were there for a birthday. Also, the manager who, before, had been dismissive approached us as we were leaving and apologized for the terrible mistake and assured us it would never happen again. While I appreciated the apology, for me, it was too little to late read more

We then ordered the sausage pepper and onion app and that was great and for entrees we ordered the fettuccine bolognese and the rigatoni vodka. The vodka sauce had a bit too much tomato sauce but both dishes were good. The chocolate mouse was the star of the night. Our waiter was very good and we were happy with him. read more

Bond 45. A Broadway Theatre Performance. There are many places to eat before you head to the theatre in New York. If you have a show to get to you can eat fast, or take your time. Depending on what you want and where you go. Some restaurants cater to those people who have a show to catch and want to be close to the show itself. So, they are willing to step inside, pick something to eat and pay for it. Sometimes the food is as much as the show. Or it is a show unto itself. Welcome to Bond 45. It is one of a sister of restaurants in the area. All Have the same crowd, the same food, the same price. I went the other day to meet a group of individuals who were going to a show after lunch. Eight of us decided this was the area that was in the middle of the theatres we needed to see the show we selected. Good thing we had a reservation. This was a sold out performance even in a restaurant. Stepping inside, and sitting down, menus were waiting for us. We had to order fast even if the show was 2 hours away. Sitting at a small table in a crowded place we waited for the waiter to stop over and take the order. He moved as quick as expected. He did not ask if we wanted anything to drink to start. Instead he asked what we wanted to eat. Looking at the menu quick we made our request. If we wanted to drink something we had to say that at the same time. We then placed our orders and had to wait. We ordered our appetizers along with our entree. We expected that to come with our beverage prior to the entree. But at Bond 45 that did not happen. Instead they brought everything at the same time. The appetizer and the entree on two plates at a table that could hold 6 people instead of the 8 of us. The beverage came with it. It was a variety of items on the table. Caesar salads. Pizza. Soup. I ordered a Burrata Caprese Salad which is tomatoes and mozzarella and balsamic dressing. It turned out to be a ball of mozzarella which was very creamy. There were only 4 slices of tomatoes which were hard and tasteless. The balsamic was missing. We had to order that again. The overall flavor did not exist. And sharing this for the two of us was done in a flash. It was nothing. As for the main entrees on the table there was more pizza, a Tuna Nicoise Salad with overcooked tuna and more potatoes than haricot vert (green beans) and no boiled egg. There were several orders of Chicken Pepperoni Parmigiana on a plate with no side orders (the waiter never asked). We also had some pasta dishes as entree. I ordered the Five Pomodoro Spaghetti, a dish of spaghetti in sauce and mixed with five (5) different types of cheese with flavor. This was interesting. No flavor. No cheese to taste. The sauce was bland. I asked for some more cheese. They brought it over and grated it on top. Twice. Another guest had to request the same. It was tasteless. I get this better at the pizza place up the block from me. Dessert was nondescript. We ordered our coffees, cappuccinos and even espresso. I ordered a double. They were surprised. They did bring it to me and it was easy to drink. It tasted like decaf. Nothing. The highlight was the staff. Not the best. The waiter behind us kept knocking me on the head when he served the table behind us. I moved my chair. The other waiter refilling our water spilled some on my plate then a nice amount in my lap. I had to stand up and wipe my pants with the napkins. They said they would bring another napkin and even another entree. I sat down. Finished what I had because it took them 15 minutes to bring me the new dish. The price was as expected. This is not cheap. Youtube what you pay for as they say. At the end, it was time to leave. We got up and said our good-byes. The show must go on. Next time I will head up to the pizza place instead. read more

Bond 45 is located right in Time Square by the Marriott Marquis New York, an awesome location for catching a meal before and after a show on Broadway. The restaurant is set up with very close tables, and the noise level is very loud. We arrive on-time for our reservations and were greeted and seated right away. The server came by right away for drink orders and provided us ample time to review the menu. We went all out on the meal, with a 3 choice Antipasto tray, Toasted Gorgonzola Loaf, entrees of Lasagna, and Veal Cutlet Milanese, and ending with a slice of Cheesecake. All the food was good, but the Gorgonzola loaf was an outstanding item with a loaf of bread stuffed and baked with cheese, very decadent. The portions were generous, and we left satisfied. Overall, the service and food were well done, and was worth our one-time visit. Tips for your visit: This restaurant is popular, so make sure you make reservations, and be aware this has a loud volume atmosphere venue for dinner. read more

Alright food, nothing to write home about. I began my meal with a warm cup of Earl Grey tea with cream, followed by the Scrambled Eggs dish ($15.00) that comes with roasted pepper potato hash, challah toast and mixed greens. I added two patties of Italian sausage (+$6.00). Nothing special, really. Even though it was beautifully presented, the dish lacked any flavor and I never got a chance to ask for any hot sauce because our waiter didn't check on us (it was busy, and they were probably short staffed). I asked for jam to spread on my toast but it never came. My total came out to $28.85 before the tip, incredibly cheap by New York standards. My friend ordered the Skillet Baked Eggs (Italian sausage, crispy prosciutto, tomato, pepper, potato hash, $22.00). Pretty cool. The eggs come raw and literally cook on the super hot skillet while you mix it and eat it. She liked it quite a bit. read more

I was in town overnight and the following morning I decided to have a real breakfast as opposed to more of a grab and go. I decided to go to Bond 45 since I had been there multiple times for lunch, dinner and even in post theater settings and the experience was always optimal. I was seated immediately and was surprised to see that even that early in the morning, the place was packed. I was given a glass of water and I ordered coffee to start. I usually like to order things that I do not make at home so I got the smoked salmon benedict which looked most appealing. I am always hesitant to order this later in the day since I was told that the hollandaise sauce can sit around for hours. However, it was early morning and I felt it was fine. My food arrived and I was very happy to see the salmon benedict with the English muffin, a piece of tomato, the smoked salmon and the poached eggs. I appreciated the fact that it was not drenched in Hollandaise sauce. My food came with a small salad with a citrusy dressing and cubed potatoes on the side. It was a filling meal and the coffee kept coming as soon as my cup was half empty. It was a pricey meal but it was really on par pricewise with all of the other restaurants in the theater area. As always, it was a pleasant experience and I would recommend. read more

HORRIBLE WAY TO TREAT ANYONE!, I came with some friends about 4 times last year to dine in good service. I was working and made a quick stop to this location. I asked this woman upfront If I can use the restroom and she said no that I had to buy something in order to use it! UNBELIEVABLE! So I asked for a water and while waiting a young Hispanic waiter was looking a my shoe wear and making a horrible face, I felt super uncomfortable because of that & that moment I was with my work clothes fast forward.. I go downstairs to use the bathroom and there was dead cockroaches. I Literally paid about $4.00 to use a restroom with dead roaches. Then I go back up to receive my water and this lady gives me the water in a cup! I tasted it and it was SINK WATER!! This is not a way to treat anyone especially someone pregnant, I could've had an actual emergency that required to use a restroom. NEVER AGAIN!, read more

This cute little Italian place was across the street from our hotel so we decided to go here to celebrate my 40th birthday. The restaurant itself is beautiful.

They didn't really check on us or offer refills on water/soda, but it was fine. The food was good. The marinara sauce was delicious and the bread was yummy too.

Was stuck between a 3 or 4 star review - was craving Italian and made last minute pre-theatre reservations. Total time was 1 hour and 40 minutes, and worked out great because our theatre was pretty much next door. I feel like for the price and service, it was three star, but the food was good and the location was great. First, I have to mention that they had by far one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen hostessing. Not to be too superficial, but that was by far the best part of the meal for me. Our waiter wasn't the most friendly or attentive, but overall the service was good and the ambiance was very interesting. We shared a Caesar salad which was HUGE and had the largest croutons I've ever seen in my life. We also shared the lasagna which was great, except for the pot roast inside it. Would have preferred more meatball, less pot roast. Definitely a unique presentation that I enjoyed otherwise though! Not much else to say, other than this restaurant only has one coed bathroom - by one, I mean one single service bathroom. read more
