After spending the day out touring the Statue of Liberty, Liberty Island, and Ellis Island in the…read morerain, I knew I needed to grab something to eat before meeting a friend to watch a Broadway show later that night. Luckily, I had Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips on my list and it was on my way. I'd also been wanting to check off eating at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant on my foodie bucket list for sometime. This spot is going to count for me, at least until I can eat at one of his real-deal restaurants. While I didn't expect the place to not have a line, I was pleasantly surprised at how I was able to quickly place my order then grab a counter seat along the window. I was solo on this visit, so I didn't need a table, but those who had groups had to wait a few minutes to grab an empty one as the the restaurant was fairly full. The atmosphere is just like any pop-in, to-go place: casual, yet energetic, and feels approachable with a focus on serving quality food, rather than worried about a Michelin star. The only caveat is that the prices are a bit higher than most are probably happy paying, but you've got to remember its proximity to Times Square and the Gordon Ramsay brand. I got Gordon's combo which was a piece of cod, a piece of chicken, and three pieces of shrimp. All three were were crispy, flaky, and golden brown with a light batter that delivered a nice crunch, and the chips were hot and hearty. Exactly what you would you'd hope for from a restaurant built around this delicious British comfort food, especially with Gordon Ramsay's name on it. I'm not much for tartar sauce, so I can't speak to that, but I definitely appreciated the bit of lemon to add a bright burst of freshness. As it is more of a to-go/fast food style place, the presentation was surprisingly appealing for a quick-service restaurant. Paired with a ginger ale, it was a satisfying meal after a day of exploring the city.

The tortillas tasted really fresh, which leveled up pretty much everything. The rajas filling was creamy, and the mushroom filling was savory. The quesadilla really is just a taco with some cheese, so I'd probably just stick with regular tacos - it's not really worth the upgrade for almost $2. The sweet and savory plantain and bean empanada was pretty unique as well - great with the salsa negra and chipotle salsa that come with it. Everything came to about $17 and was prepared very quickly. There isn't a ton of seating, but there was some room when I visited on a Friday evening. Worth a try if you're in the neighborhood.

The atmosphere was open, inviting, and very clean, which I really appreciated. The staff was friendly, and I loved being able to watch the fresh tortillas being made right in front of us. They offer a great selection of sauces, and the fact that they have foil and plastic wrap available for leftovers is a major plus and such a thoughtful touch. I ordered the carne asada (steak) bowl with everything except pico de gallo on the side, and it was packed with flavor. My friend had extra corn, so I tried some of that too, and it was delicious. I also had the barbacoa (lamb) taco, which was very good! And the chicken from the chicken taco was so very well seasoned! We honestly wanted to order more, but we're saving a few things for our next visit. We're definitely going back and more than likely probably sooner rather than later!
