    Seafood pasta
    Richard S.

    One White Street's à la carte menu was quite reasonable and ended up being a delicious way to celebrate a birthday. We stuck with their classics, including their focaccia, which was quite large. I wish there was a bit more of the tomato sauce but otherwise thought this was the perfect way to start a meal. We ordered a few additional side dishes and went with the burger and seafood pasta for our mains. I was quite full by the time I finished my burger, which I thought was cooked beautifully and compared on par with other famous burgers like Rolo's, Monkey Bar and Burger Joint. While juicy, it didn't feel overly messy although I wish they paired it with something else like some shoestring fries (available if you order steak frites) or some fingerling potatoes. The pasta was also quite good and generously packed with a hefty amount of seafood.

    I don't recommend getting the tasting menu. It's pretty casual in terms of ambience and there are multiple floors. Service is decently quick. It gets pretty loud so it's hard to hear. The mix of flavors didn't feel right in the tasting and it was decently heavy / not balanced. Some dishes like the shrimp pasta felt like the flavor wasn't matched well and it was pretty expensive. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't be coming back.

    My partner and I shared an exquisite meal at One White Street. The ambiance is definitely chic, and decor was a mix of rustic and modern. The menu looked delicious, we opted to share the burger (which they offered to cut in half for us!) and the slow roasted pork collar. Both were delicious: the richness of the wagyu patties, the pork was cooked perfectly.. even the polenta, which isn't typically up our alley, was great! All in all a great dining experience. Would recommend!

    OWT was a very good bar-restaurant tucked in Tribeca. It gave off elegant but casual vibes inside with close seating that wasn't crowded for my meal but felt it could get quite noisy at peak times. They offer a tasting and à la carte menu, known for their burger. The staff were helpful in recommending food and drink options including curating a wine pairing. The food was very good but I wouldn't say memorable. Highlights were the bread and butter - I'd say among the top I've had in the city, thick crust and airy - American wagyu, montauk sea bream, and honey crème brûlée dessert. These dishes were all fantastic in being extremely tasty with complex flavors and ingredients. The creme brulee was perfectly cooked and sweet. The other dishes unfortunately I found rather bland and a bit sloppy. Overall it was a good meal though I would return for the burger in the future and à la carte menu. A solid value for the price for the tasting menu. The wine pairing included some excellent wines and was well done.

    The transition from summer to fall in the city is abrupt and downright rude. It happens in either late August or early September when the first cold breeze from areas more rural and father north seeps through the city streets and reminds you of what's about to come. I did One White Street (OWS) during this transition, and it was the only thing that got me through that fleeting feeling that summer was officially ending, and it was no longer socially acceptable for me to be ordering rum punches at 1pm. Nestled in a landmarked townhouse on a busy Tribeca street (which is within itself a juxtaposition), OWS prides themselves as a premiere farm to table option in NYC's Michelin fine dining scene. They've held onto both their Michelin star and Michelin green star as long as I can remember, which is a huge accomplishment within itself given the stringent requirements of the green star system. As I mentioned in the beginning of this review, I happened to be there during that first cold breeze. Whether or not they consulted with a meteorologist and planned this menu for that event - I do not know, but let me tell you, it was perfect. Their amuse is an assortment of seasonal charcuterie and vegetables. While I was digging in I felt like that episode of no reservations - food porn where Tony was face deep in the best iberico ham he's had in his life. Charcuterie is supposed to be both simple and highlight either the flavor of high quality meat or the technique of a good quality charcutier. Let me tell you, this did the job like a 70s style Gambino crime family hit. After that, a flurry of locally sourced salads and moderately sized dishes came pouring out of the kitchen. The ingredients and flavor profiles created the perfect bridge between summer and fall. Delicate, warm weather mini shrimp from Montauk were cooked in a hearty tomato sauce and festooned with pasta. A salad with 20 ingredients (half of which I didn't even know existed) created a different sensation in every bite. The beef course had me on my knees, praying to the bovine gods of upstate New York. Who knew you could get top tier A5 wagyu from a farm upstate? Japan - get ready for some competition in the global meat trade. I'm convinced it I hadn't been to OWS during that dreadful seasonal transition, I likely would have taken the E all the way to Jamaica station and booked a last minute flight to Jamaica to get the hell away from that lukewarm cold blast. I'm glad I decided to stay.

    OWS fills a whole townhouse with cozy, neighborhood charm, the kind of place you'd invite your in-laws to. Go for the tasting menu, portions are so generous that each dish feels like a full entrée. The meal started strong with a French onion tartlet (tastes just like the soup) followed by an incredibly generous slice of foie gras served with pain de mie. This was my fav, loved how rich yet bright the dish was with citrusy kumquat and calamansi cutting though the intensity The squash ravioli was pure autumn, delicious combo of brown butter, hazelnuts, crispy onions, and sage. We swapped the monkfish for the duck, and absolutely do the same The meat was so juicy and perfectly fatty, sauces weren't even necessary. The skin and that thin sliver of fat were insanely good. The wagyu also had that deep, primal beefiness which paired so well with the black garlic sauce. The sourdough felt like overkill tho, good but just too much carb. Desserts didn't quite land. The Ginger froyo was overpowering and the pairing with apples and treacle tart felt off. Service started slipping toward the end, with forgotten utensils, a missing sweet finale, and the check arriving unprompted. Overall, highly recommend this spot while I continue to check off this street. tasting menu $178* duck supplement $20 최근 포스팅한 Rigor Hill Market 팀이 공동으로 운영하는 미슐랭 원스타 식당! 내 기준, 여기가 아메리칸 호스피탈리티 & 다이닝 문화를 제일 이상적이게 표현한다. 미쿡 특유의 캐쥬얼한 품위?? 그게 잘 느껴짐. 단품도 가능한데 우린 테이스팅 메뉴로 시킴! 푸아그라 디쉬 존맛이고 파스타도 가을스러운 맛이 좋았다. 기본 메뉴에는 오리가 없어서 농어 디쉬를 대체했는데 제발 이렇게 시키세여 육즙 가득하고 지방이랑 껍질이 완벽하게 섞여 있는데 소스가 필요 없을 정도로 맛있음. 와규에서도 정말 깊고 원초적인 소고기 맛이 나는데 코스요리도중 먹어본 베스트 스테끼였다. 끝에가서 가서 서비스가 급해졌는데 고기땜시 또 가게될곳이다.

    Killer first experience at One White Street. Grabbed the 1WS Burger and Crispy Potatoes--both were 10/10. The 90 Mile Highball is a must-order if you want something crisp and well-balanced. Great spot, great energy. Will be back.

    We had a great start with the lovely hostess who fit us in, but were told the only option was a chef's counter seat on the third floor. I saw a few open tables downstairs but wasn't given the option so asked for the open table on the 3rd floor... The first level feels lively and welcoming; upstairs felt cramped, had an odd smell, and lacked the same vibe. If you do go, be specific about where you would like to sit. Our server never introduced himself, he came by after about 15 minutes, dropped menus, and didn't explain anything--disappointing since the menu isn't easy to navigate. No smile, no warmth, and overall just disconnected service. While the restaurant was busy, it wasn't busy enough to feel how we were overlooked. The focaccia bread and butter were delicious. My husband loved his burger but wished he could have asked for more sauce. My chicken was cooked perfectly but lacked au jus, leaving it dry. Potatoes were average. Nothing really wowed us. To top it off, our plates stayed on the table until dessert menus arrived. For a $250 michelin meal for two, I expected more attentiveness and friendliness. Maybe it was an "off" night, but between the seating, the lackluster service, and the so-so food, I doubt we'll be back. I honestly think you will find better places that welcome you for half the price.

    We went to OWS for my husband's birthday and decided to go with the a la carte menu even though we've heard good things about their prix fixe. Our waitress was nice but it took us almost 15 minutes to get our drinks as she served the couple who came after us, which didn't leave the best impression. We started our meal with the fennel salad, the tomato focaccia as well as the eggplant dip. Both fennel salad and eggplant dip were tasty and flavourful, but we've had better focaccias at other restaurants. For our mains, we got the burger and the tagliatelle. Burger was surprisingly delicious - my husband thinks it's even better than Rolo's! We also enjoyed the tagliatelle which was packed with shrimp flavour, and had a lot of shrimp meat in it. We appreciated the free dessert that came with our meal since we were celebrating a birthday! It was similar to a funfetti cheesecake. We also got their blueberry sorbet dessert which was delicious. We learned that everything is sourced from their own farm, and the quality of their ingredients definitely shined especially with this dessert course. Overall, we enjoyed our meal there and appreciated how the dining room was relatively quiet despite the seats being very tightly packed.

    My first Michelin star restaurant and it was amazing. Had reservations for 10pm got there on time and was greeted and seated upon enter. Host was very friendly, the whole staff to be honest was great. Super friendly and accommodating. The ambiance was also lovely And chic. I started with a ginger beer and red snapper ceviche to die for... it was very fresh and flavorful. The star of the show the 1WS cheeseburger was chefs kiss. Juicy fresh the onions were a nice addition the white cheddar sealed the deal and the pretzel bun did its thing. One of the best burgers I've had definitely top 3. I highly recommend and I will be returning to explore the rest of the menu.

    Excellent meal at a restaurant with fantastic chill vibe and great service. Had the 5 course tasting menu which had a nice mix of balanced flavors. Sauces were on point without being too heavy. Vegetables and proteins were all cooked and presented well. Overall, a pleasant experience!

    Everything is sourced from their own farm, which made the experience feel extra special. I had been looking forward to this restaurant for months, but we ended up choosing the à la carte option instead of the tasting menu because we wanted the old menu so it wasn't quite what I had originally expected. The restaurant is set in a beautiful townhouse with three floors, each featuring different kitchens preparing distinct styles of food. The service was excellent, our waitress even took the time to walk me through all three levels and explain how everything works. My favorite dish of the night was probably the red snapper ceviche: fresh, bright, and full of flavor. Overall, we had a great time and appreciated the unique setup and warm hospitality.

    This was by far the most disappointing Michelin experience of my life. My partner and I had a 9:00 PM reservation on Sunday, May 24th. I called ahead to let the restaurant know we were running a little late. They told me that if we arrived after 9:15, we wouldn't be seated. We got there before 9:10. The host greeted us with, "You have to order soon, our kitchen is closing." I felt so welcomed. After seating us, the server gave us the same warning. Then we sat there for 20 minutes before anyone came to take our order, which was strange considering how rushed they made it seem. I had already mentioned on the phone that we'd be doing the tasting menu. When the server finally came, we confirmed again that we wanted the tasting menu. They looked annoyed. Then came the food. It was nothing to write home about, and honestly, borderline insulting. The first course was just carrots with some bland cream at the bottom of the bowl. That was followed by a few more unmemorable dishes. Then the fish course arrived, and it had a very strong, fishy smell and no real flavor. But the worst part? A dry chicken breast as the main course. I was so unimpressed I didn't even bother to take a photo. Even the desserts where dry and disappointing, and you have to try pretty hard to disappoint me with a dessert. I don't know what happened that night. Maybe they ran out of ingredients and just threw something together? There's no way this is what they usually serve. Then there's the price. I usually don't complain about cost as I knew it was $180 per person when I booked. But when a restaurant charges that much, they're making a promise, to deliver great service, quality ingredients, and a memorable meal. They failed on every level.

    I've visited the original The Smith location several times over the years and have always enjoyed…read moremyself. This was my first time dining at the Lincoln Square location on 63rd Street, which opened in 2012, and it was outstanding. A friend was celebrating her promotion and invited a group of friends to join her. We were a table of 11 and were seated in the back dining room. Considering the size of our group, the service was remarkable--attentive, efficient, and never intrusive. I started with a gin martini, which was perfectly made. We ordered an assortment of appetizers to share, making it easy for everyone to sample several things from the menu. For my main course, I went with the ribeye, which was cooked to perfection. Dessert was the highlight of the meal for me. The "Death by Chocolate" was outstanding--a rich chocolate mousse, a caramelized layer of crispy sugar over it, and topped with a dollop of whipped cream. It was the perfect way to finish the evening. Walking into the restaurant, the first thing that caught my attention was the impressive 50-foot zinc bar. The spacious dining room, designed by the Rockwell Group, has an industrial-chic feel, with white subway-tiled walls, reclaimed wood, and large windows. There's also a classic black-and-white photo booth in the basement, which adds a fun touch. The menu is broad enough to appeal to almost everyone, ranging from a raw seafood bar and prime steaks to burgers, mac 'n cheese, and popular brunch dishes. I also appreciate the complimentary house-filtered still and sparkling water--a small detail, but a nice touch. The location is particularly convenient for Lincoln Center, with easy access from the 1 train at 66th Street-Lincoln Center and the A, B, C, and D trains at Columbus Circle. A Little History The Smith traces its roots to 2007, when Jeffrey Lefcourt and Michael Jacobs opened the original location in the East Village. The 63rd Street restaurant opened in November 2012 as the brand's third New York City location, designed to serve Upper West Side residents as well as the large number of people attending performances at Lincoln Center. After years of enjoying the East Village location, I'm glad I finally made it to the 63rd Street restaurant. With excellent service, a lively atmosphere, a broad menu, and a great location, it delivered a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I'll definitely be back.

    Had weekday lunch here with coworkers. Nice ambience, a little bit loud. I came during the Knicks…read morevs Spurs playoffs and they had a Knicks themed menu which was very cool. The food was great! Everything I had tasted good and I didn't have any huge complaints about. I recommend the truffle parmesan fries, burrata with bread, and the shrimp scampi (which wasn't spicy as advertised but was very fresh and lemony)

    How have I not reviewed Zou Zou's? It's one of my favorite places. High points:…read more Decor- it's beautiful Service- every time I've been there it's been outstanding. I brought a friend with a specific allergy and everyone involved in service was aware and assured us that dishes didn't contain the offending nuts. Food- I live for their branzino. The duck borek is amazing. My friend who rarely eats meat proclaimed the filet on the skewer as the best steak she's ever had. The cheesecake is phenomenal. I really recommend the chef's menu. You get a sample of everything served family style and at $79 a person, it's a deal considering that if you ordered appetizers, an entree and dessert you'd pay much more than that in any restaurant in Manhattan. I've done that twice and still ended up taking food home. Drink prices are in line with mid-town Manhattan but $12 for a bottle of San Pellegrino is a little excessive. I'd be okay with $8 or $9 but I guess a few bucks in the grand scheme of things is not the end of the world. I've been there a few times and I'll note that I had reservations on a busy Thursday and was seated outside (which was lovely) but then it started raining hard and they were so helpful and gracious in finding us a place to squeeze in on the inside. Really top notch service. I'll also note that I brought a friend from Seattle and her husband is an architect for restaurants and she was wowed by the entire experience, which made me feel great!

    We all know that New York is home to so many great restaurants, yet I can confidently say that Zou…read moreZou's is one of the best. They have a lovely rooftop bar while you wait for a table. Then, when it was finally time to be seated in the dining room, I was so pleased with the upscale, romantic interior. Our server for that night was Ferdian, who was so attentive and had real class service. We made the reservation with OpenTable for 12 and ended up with 13 people. I love that the staff was so accommodating with the last-minute request We did the pre-fixed menu to make things easier. Everything was delicious from the beginning to the end. They were also able to accommodate gluten-free and dairy-free restrictions among those wonderful meals. My favorites were the dips, branzino, and hamachi. duck borek, and the desserts! The grilled pineapple was out of this world. Simple dish with complex flavors. The crunchy cheese cake was delicious too. I had the Road to Jericho cocktail, and it was yummy.
