    Chocolate Symphony
    Cici M.

    The service was really good, I had a great waiter who was knowledgeable about wine pairings to your meal. For an appetizer, I got the caramelized bacon, which was really delicious. For my entrée, I got the signature Delmonico Ribeye and it was really bad. The cut of meat I had I believe bad - super chewy, medium but was a tough cut, fatty. Just overall a pretty bad experience for their "signature" cut of meat. And for my dessert, I had the chocolate symphony - not really a huge fan of dessert but it was about a 6. Overall pretty overpriced for a seemingly mediocre steak experience. I'm truly disappointed. Also one last mention other patrons and I were swatting gnats the WHOLE dinner experience. Not cool.

    Olive martini ($25)

    I like eggs benedict. So naturally, I had to try the restaurant where it was invented! I even brushed up on YouTube to see how it's made here! We started off sharing the crab cake. Oh my! It's quite possibly the best crab cake I've ever had. No filler, just a ton of sweet, succulent crab encased in a fried potato string pouch. I ordered the eggs benedict, of course. That bernaise sauce is just...wow! It's what really sets their eggs Benedict apart from everyone else's. I also liked the brioche versus the English muffin. I do wish they offered a half order because it is very rich, and also I'd also like to have room to try other items on the menu. The fiancé got the steak frites. Cooked a perfect medium rare, the steak had a good "beef" flavor. They really seasoned it minimally to allow the natural flavors to shine through. Another Delmonico's invention: we couldn't leave without the baked Alaska. Very banana forward and more on the sweeter side than we usually like. Glad we tried it, but wouldn't crave that one in the future. My boo literally had a two martini lunch: the first, an Olive martini, the second, a Delmonico's martini. He found the "Delmonico's" online and when he ordered it they brought him out a second Olive martini. When we inquired about it, the "Delmonico's" is an old recipe that was swapped out a few years ago (gin and vermouth), so be specific if that's what you're after! The service was very good here. The only "Ick" was there was a dead fly on our plate when we were first seated. I told one of the staff and they changed it right away. Delmonico's is America's first fine dining restaurant. Over 150 years strong! I think they know a thing or two about great food and excellent service.

    Potatoes! Yum

    Great spot- we sat at the bar and the food was magnifique! Perfect for later NY dinner vibes. Recommend making a reservation- we went on a Tuesday and it was packed!

    5 star service. It's the oldest steak house in NYC. (Also fun fact they did some filming for John wick here) [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dimly lit speak easy vibes in the bar area, which we loved.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Delmonico Eye is a solid choice, as well as the filet. Caesar salad is easily the BEST Caesar I've ever had, and I've probably had over 1,000 in my lifetime. The crab cake is out of this world. Kevin was our server, he was a delight. This will be a new frequent spot for us.

    Great steakhouse. We started in the bar with a few cocktails. Bar service was great. Our bartender answered a few questions and even gave us some dinner recommendations. We ordered crab cakes, Cesar salad, and steak tartare for our appetizer. The crab cakes were more crab than cake. It was very crabby and delicious. The tartare was also very good. Although there was more potato than steak pieces, it was still very tasty. The Cesar salad was very good as well. Whole leaf baby Romain lightly tossed and with whole pickled anchovies. Yum. For our entrees, we ordered the porterhouse for 2, pea risotto, filet mignon, Brussels sprouts, and pomme purée. Everything was cooked to perfection. Our meat temperature was perfect. Porterhouse was served on a sizzling plate and was also pre sliced for us to share. The filet mignon was also pre sliced. We ordered the baked Alaska for dessert. The banana in that really shined and was very tasty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Typical classic steakhouse in an intimate setting. Highly recommend.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    SO good. I was actually on my way to another restaurant when I walked past Delmonico's. I debated on going in, but what a delicious decision it was. It was packed, but fortunately, they found me a table by the bar. The service by EVERYONE that came by my table was impeccable. VERY nice, respectful, and helpful. They truly understand customer service and it shows. As for the food, it was amazing. I ordered the Burrata appetizer and the Signature Delmonico Ribeye, and the Prime Rib Sandwich. The Burrata not only tasted great, it was beautifully plated. Seriously, it was gorgeous. As for the ribeye, it was perfectly cooked and was delicious!! Juicy, tender, and so full of flavor. I wish I had time to go back for another meal, but unfortunately I did not. This place is a definite must for me, should I be back in NY.

    Had a lovely meal here on a whim. Was in the area and last minute said let's try Delmonico's. Haven't been here in a few years and it was just as good as I remembered. Didn't have reservations and hostess was very accommodating offering two seats at the bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar was awesome.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our bartender was super friendly and made amazing drinks and kicked off a great conversation throughout the meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The venue was busy for a Tuesday night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar was lively and customers and staff were all friendly and engaging in random conversations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was excellent. The bar service was outstanding. Caesar salad and the yellowtail crudo was delightful and beautifully presented. We shared the wagyu strip with steak fries and we devoured the meal. Steak was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. We left full and satisfied and will be back again.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here with the boys on a weekend evening and let me just say this steakhouse is huge. Multiple floors and rooms as they own the whole building I believe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were seated downstairs via reservation. We had 2 orders of the bacon, 3 steaks, 2 orders of mash and 2 orders of cream spinach. Everything was GREAT, steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the sides complimented it very well as well as their sauces. This place does get packed so I'd recommend a reservation. Also pricey as well but that's all steakhouses tbh.

    I went to delmonicos for restaurant week, and they had a really great deal. For $60 each we got an app, main, and dessert. There is an upcharge for certain specialty items but overall it's much more affordable than coming outside of restaurant week. The place is a historic institution with great service and a lot of seating. For drinks, we got the lychee martini and a purple gin drink. I don't remember the name and can't find it on the website but the purple one was my favorite. For apps, we tried the Caesar salad and the thick cut bacon. The bacon is a must have, delmonicos does it so well. The Caesar salad has small roe mixed through it so if you don't like seafood maybe skip that one! For mains, the restaurant week menu had their filet mignon and then the ribeye was available for $33 extra. The ribeye is their specialty so we tried it, but personally I liked the filet more! It had a great sauce on it. Both steaks were perfectly done. For dessert we had chocolate cake and cheesecake. Both were great but I especially liked the cheesecake. Overall, everything was so well done. Great place for a special occasion

    Love the Delmonico's personalized plates

    YES!! you should make a reservation if for no other reason than because there is important, fine dining restaurant history right here, inside (& outside) Delmonico's, located on Beaver Street in downtown Manhattan, Steps from famous Wall Street. Steps from the famous huge bull sculpture on Wall Street. I mentioned the historical outside because I read in an article somewhere that when the restaurant first opened, people would rub the pillars that are outside by the entrance for good luck. Started in 1837, Delmonico's has a storied history and you are able to see some of it on display inside the restaurant. Photos and memorabilia from the early, early days. And for that reason alone, you should dine here. Mark Twain celebrated his 70th birthday here and you can see artwork on the wall depicting that. Delmonico's created several very famous, beloved dishes ...For example, the dessert called baked Alaska. And other dishes you may be familiar with. Please, See their website. By the way, 1837 is the same year that Tiffany & Co started. What a time!! Can you imagine!? I enjoyed WINTER RESTAURANT WEEK 2026!! I had lunch on my first visit to Delmonico's. I ordered the Maine Crab Cake (+$10) Mmm, I enjoyed this dish, see my photos. It is an artful dish. A Maine crab cake enrobed in yummy, crispy, shredded potatoes. Mmm!! What's not to like!?!?!!! LOL My entree was Filet Mignon. Loved the accompanying whipped potatoes. (See photo) . I'd rate this filet mignon itself 4 stars, only because it was not as soft as I'm used to when I order filet mignon. I was looking forward to that yummy, almost melt-in-your-mouth-softness, but, alas it was not there. I was surprised (and disappointed). It was good, not spectacular. It was deliciously seasoned. My 3rd course, THE FAMOUS DELMONICO'S BAKED ALASKA (+$10). A MUST!!! See my video!! On a very cold winter's day, I appreciated the warm welcome when I entered the restaurant and that was thanks to the two women at the Hostess station. When I left, no one said anything. Nothing at all. (Almost comical, but not). And there was plenty of restaurant, staff and management by the door. A missed opportunity, to be sure. Ideally, you want your patron to leave on an up note level and the goodbye is part two of the welcome. Toward the end of my late lunch, I saw the next shift of servers (upcoming dinner time) arranging beautiful place settings on tables and sometimes adding a chair or two to a large round table. I was very impressed with the care that I saw from each of those servers setting those tables and arranging things on the table. It was obvious the staff I was watching cared deeply about having things just right, perfect. Seeing this reminded me of the fine dining establishments I've had the pleasure of visiting. Kudos to that evening staff caring about setting those tables just right. That was great to see. I loved where I was seated in a beautiful blue cozy booth type table. Apparently there was going to be a shift change... so my first server was very attentive and I appreciated that very much; he was professional and kind. I missed him when I experienced the second server; although he walked by my table several times he was initially not attentive. In any business, There is usually room for improvement. I would respectfully suggest that Delmonico's reminds servers when they're walking by a table to keep their eyes open all around, not just in one direction because at least twice the second server walked by my table, looking away from my table with his back toward my table, never turned his head to see if I needed anything and of course I did so it was frustrating to have him walk by twice. I was not going to call out, simply because that would have ruined my restaurant experience. Delmonico's is beautiful inside and I wanted to keep that ambience and that's why I did not say excuse me hello ... I just figured eventually my server would walk by and look at my table and eventually he did, and I took that opportunity to have a respectful chat with this server so that he was aware that twice he had walked by my table and not even looked in my direction. He was respectful and he heard what I had to say and the next time he walked by what do you think happened? He looked at my table, smiled, I smiled, too, and that's when I ordered my pot of tea which I enjoyed. From then on, things were fine. See my photos. As part of Delmonico's history, you will see photos on the walls. I enjoyed this. If Delmonico's gave a tour of the restaurant I'd sign up for that. But I can tell you there is a bar area that's lovely , and the nearby, single person restroom was lovely and clean. I believe There are some private dining rooms, too. Make a reservation! You can take the 4 or 5 train to the Wall Street stop, then walk toward the famous Wall Street Bull sculpture, and turn onto BEAVER STREET, and you are steps from Delmonico's.

    Delmonico's has been on my list to try for a while, as it is such an iconic NYC institution. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The resturant itself is absolutely stunning, there are plenty of tables inside and it has an old school but still modern feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The white table cloths and attentive wait staff make for an upscale dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The biggest highlight for me was the dirty martini with blue cheese olives, absolutely no notes. As for food, I would say the menu is definitely more limited than some other steakhouses I have been to. I was pleasantly surprised by the caviar pasta, it was decadent but did not sit heavy like some rich pastas do. Overall I had a pleasant experience and would love to return. Don't forget to ask for a matchbox on the way out!

    Maine Crab Cake

    Came here for my birthday celebration with friends on a Sunday. We were seated promptly and since it's restaurant week, we all got the restaurant week menu with the signature Delmonico's steak and various appetizers and desserts. We also got lychee martinis and a bottle of red wine. The martinis are quite strong but the flavor is nice with hints of rose and lychee. I got the crab cake as an app while my friends got the crudo, bacons, and burrata and all hit. The presentation and the flavor of the crab cake is amazing, with a massive portion. The Delmonico steaks lived up to its name. The steak is tender and juicy, and the side mashed potato and spinach added a nice balance. The only thing was it's too massive at 18 oz and we could not finish. It's my first time getting the baked Alaska. It's a fun dessert with banana, peach, and apricot elements. It's also huge. My friend got the chocolate mousse and the cheesecake those were delicious too. The only thing that could be improved is that the service seemed rushed, both our waitress and the staff serving the dishes. Not sure if it's bc they were trying to turn tables quickly. Overall it's a solid steakhouse with great food.

    So this was actually our 3rd choice after the first 2 were fully booked and impossible to get a reservation so we "settled" for delmonico'a as they had a "reasonable" reservation time available. We arrived timely and were directed downstairs to a table in the middle of the brightly lit room...I politely asked for a table in a quieter area as I wanted to enjoy a quiet meal with my children who were visiting for the holidays. Thankfully they moved us to a back room with warm lighting and quieter atmosphere. The thing I have to say about the food is that everything was amazing! Special note for the fish entree that our son's fiancée ordered was apparently one of the best fish dishes hubby ever had. This steak house will no longer be a third choice restaurant for us!

    Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.

    The truffle monkey bread while a total carb and calorie bomb was delicious and left a lasting…read moreimpression. It featured a crispy, sugar-glazed exterior and a soft, chewy interior, topped with truffle cheese and served with a truffle butter dip; the pairing was superb, and it tasted great both on its own and with the dip. For the main course, I ordered the miso-glazed black cod. The flavor was flawless, and while the portion was small (which was acceptable), the pool of broth accompanying it was completely unnecessary; it was inedibly salty, so what was the point of serving it? After finishing the fish, I was left with a plate full of broth, rendering the plate unusable. Plus, it was overpriced; for this dish, you're better off going to Strip House Strip House remains the undisputed king of this dish in New York. A friend ordered the chicken parmesan. It was just average. Another friend ordered the short rib stroganoff. The flavor was decent, but it was far too rich and heavy. As someone whose palate is split 50/50 between Western and Chinese cuisine, I could manage only five bites at most. If you have a palate that prefers 100% Chinese food, proceed with caution on this dish. Friends ordered sides of mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. These are dishes originally meant for low-income Americans to fill up on cheaply; there's no limit to how good they can be, but also no floor to how bad they can get. Both were on par with the average quality found in upscale restaurants. Honestly, these are two dishes I would never order myself. To sum up: the atmosphere was great. It's also hard to get a reservation; the place was packed when we had lunch at 2 PM. Aside from that monkey bread, I didn't feel like anything else justified the price or offered something you couldn't find elsewhere. I don't quite get the hype. Perhaps I just didn't order the right dishes; maybe next time I'll try the burger and the steak.

I didn't do the egg, which I regret, but did get the thick cut bacon. The burger is a must! It's probably the best burger I have eaten in a long time. Hospitality wise, it was top notch. This group knew I had a shellfish allergy and took extra time to make sure there was no cross contamination with the burger. The wings were good as well, but I wouldn't bank on it being the draw. They also come with a warm towel, which is a really nice touch. Overall, just a great experience. I have been twice, so it is more than a one time stop.

We didn't have reservations, but we were able to grab seats at the bar. We started with the Chopped Chicken Liver ($18.99). My friend ordered it, and it's not something I would normally order myself, but it was a nice change up. It was pretty good, and the salted buttered toast definitely made the dish. For my main, I ordered the Double Cheeseburger ($25.99) with bacon ($6.99). The bun seemed different from what I remembered at the Chicago location. The bacon also wasn't crispy all the way through. I prefer the fatty parts to be crispy on the outside, so that was a little disappointing. The burger itself was still juicy and delicious. I probably had really high expectations because my first Au Cheval burger in Chicago was one of the best burgers I've ever had. Maybe I should've ordered a Coca-Cola instead of a couple of draft beers. Either way, I enjoyed my meal and the great conversation with my friend. Overall, I had a good experience. If I'm back in Chicago, I'll definitely stop by Au Cheval again and hope it's as memorable as my first visit.

    My wife and I took our kids (10 and 16 year old boys) to this place on our last evening in NYC. We…read morewere looking for a place that had a nice ambiance and good food. Ambiance: This place has a nice ambiance, definitely very "New York" -- dark (you can't see how dirty the floor is) and loud music (maybe too loud). We sat upstairs (we had a reservation) and of all the people on the top there was a party of 4 (us), a party of 8 (all dudes celebrating something) and the rest of the tables were on a DATE - which I thought was funny. Service: We were served by Ann-Marie who was so delightful. She was kind, super nice, and took the time to speak to us (which is basically how we figured out she wasn't a native New York City person). She gave us good food suggestions and we were very happy with our selection. Food: Here is what we ordered * Steak Frites: My two boys got the steak frites and I have to say the steak was awesome! I had a bite of each of theirs and they each ordered it differently (one Medium Rare/Medium and one Medium) and they both were prepared PERFECTLY. The fries were overflowing. * Caeser Salad with Salmon: My wife got the salad with Salmon (they only have a few salad options) and she enjoyed it. * Prawn and Crab Risotto: I got this and I have to say it was VERY bland. I wouldn't get this if you are looking for taste. I had to put salt and pepper on it to make it have any semblance of taste. Value/Price: I would say this is not over priced but it is not cheap either...bill is attached. I would recommend it to folks who are looking for a good place to either go out on a date or a family type meal.

    Came here for brunch and had a decent time. The place wasn't too busy, likely due to the crappy…read moreweather, so we were able to sit there for a while after our meal concluded. Service was good. We had the fried chicken Benedict and the crab cake Benedict. I was a bit confused when I saw that each Benedict dish only had one poached egg - shouldn't it always be two? I guess that's shrinkflation (plus inflation) for you. That bent said, the crab cake was actually really big and filling. The side of potatoes were really delicious. Would I come back for brunch again? Very unlikely. But, it does seem like a pretty "safe choice" if you need a last minute reservation for a group.

Did an earlier dinner on a Saturday with a friend at the bar. We got some similar items, some different. The thing I kept the same was my martinis and all three (sour cream and onion, tomato, and espresso) were just as amazing as ever. Food-wise, I stuck mainly to the classics with one new dish: - Pizza rolls: Very good but 3 pizza rolls for $20 felt small to me. I feel like I remember seeing others served more when I've gone in the past, but not completely sure. They're nostalgic and fun, nothing to die for. - Fries: Great as ever, we opted for just one of the sauces (avocado dill). - French Dip: This used to be cut in 3 pieces and now it's 2. Works well with a duo but I do think it's actually a little smaller now than before when I compare photos. - Samoa sundae: Still amazing, still so so worth. It was fun going with a friend who hadn't been before and seeing the joy upon trying the dish! Bar service is friendly as always and they do a decent job moving you along to ensure the necessary turnover without feeling too rushed.

We were texted at 5:15 a spot at the bar was available. We were thrilled! Started with the sour cream & onion martini which i enjoyed and comes with a small side of chips. The musts: The caesar salad is outstanding. Tons of cheese. The fried cream cheese croquettes. The everything bagel croutons! The five cheese pizza rolls -yes! Wagyu French Dip served with au jous - outstanding Lobster & Caviar Roll Sour cream & onion martini Ok: French fries are fine. A little salty. Saoma sundae - lots of coconut Skip: Spinach & Artichoke Dip - meh. Had better at Applebees. The sauce trio for the fries - all were too salty. The service is outstanding. Everything was on point even though we sat at the bar. The attention to detail is great. Our course were staggered and we never felt rushed. Now is it worth showing up 2+ hour in advance hoping to get in. I don't think so. Once they hype dies down and you can book a reservation check it out.

Stepping in, this swanky atmosphere was confirmed. Miss Nellie's is quite spacious with a front and back bar. I enjoyed a birthday pour of Johnnie Walker Green, served over a large rock that was stamped and embossed with the venue's logo. So cool! My wife enjoyed an "Above the Clouds" craft cocktail - with a butterfly pea-infused gin. The presentation was elevated by an artistic bubble applied over the cocktail that dissipated into vapor with the touch of a finger. The bartenders were friendly, knowledgeable, and outgoing! They made sure that I was well taken care of for my birthday. It was such a great experience that we returned for another round after the jazz show. Thank you for the hospitality Miss Nellie's!

It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water. I would return to Friedman's when I'm in the Herald Square area, or check out one of their other locations in the city.

I was so full I totally forgot to drink my latte but the latte was good too. Ambiance was nice clean and very busy.

The salmon over hash brown , was lacking a touch of something , couldn't pinpoint what was lacking. Chicken and waffles, decent, wasn't the best I've had. Service- jonathan was our waiter during brunch and also our bartender. He's GREAT! During service dinner, we had a female waitress and I felt she lacked attention to details and couldn't flag her down when we wanted something. Overall, service is a hit or miss , I guess?
