    Beauty is but a facade. The stunning ambiance draws you in and that's where it leaves you. The lackluster service was almost deafening. Drinks, tasty, but took ages and it seemed as though our server preferred the company of his colleagues as opposed to our table, and that trickled to the other tables. The only savior of this dinner was the fried chicken. Fresh ingredients. Unless you're bringing family here whom you'd rather not converse with, avoid. They're as cold as their bread and butter. (i'm serious, cold bread and colder butter). So much potential and the mark was entirely missed.

    I came here for a networking event, and they served these apps in Tapas style. Everything was so delicious! My favorite is the Calamari. It came with this Yuzu Foam that was light and fluffy and added some tart and sweetness to the crispy and savory calamari. Just thinking about it is making me drool a bit... All their ingredients taste so fresh and very well seasoned. Thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. The dining area is also extremely beautiful with a nice view of the water and sunset in the afternoon/early evening. Perfect date night spot. The service staff were impeccable and amazing. Everyone is so nice and courteous. I can't wait to come back.

    Returned for brunch and had a wonderful meal. My boyfriend and I shared: + Crispy calamari + Baby gem and arugula salad + Black truffle burger + Chocolate pudding The highlights were the calamari and dessert (the candied violets in that pudding are just next level), though everything was great per usual.

    The restaurant has a very unique and unassuming look. It's almost like a hotel lobby restaurant vibe. The waiters (Henry) were fabulous with recommendations and knowledge. For starters we had the pear salad which was great but the calamari was the star of the appetizers. The crisp was amazing and the sauce was incredible - despite its looks. For the main course we had the salmon and lobster raviolis. The salmon was cooked perfectly, the vegetables were the star and the sauce was amazing. The sauce for the lobster ravioli was terrific too!! The lobster, of course, was great and the only disappointing bit was the ravioli itself. There just wasn't anything spectacular about the taste. The sorbet to close the night was perfect and refreshing,

    Finally took time to see Jean George's and Cedric's place. What a cool location, space and decor. It gives me the high end 1990s NYC energy. The food was really well executed, enjoyed it a lot. I think maybe some of the bar presentation was a bit underwheling for the caliber of the place (such as glasses and infredients into G&T). I would have preferred white table cloths and maybe some more help to the server staff with training (regretably when collecting the paper table mats clumsily spilled crumbs into my lap). Not a big deal but the aspiration is to reach the ideals of service of the high end gastronomy. Lovely people though!

    Absolutely wonderful meal. The menu presents itself as a standard, nice meal, but the flavors that come out of the kitchen bowled me over. Everything was perfectly cooked, perfectly dressed, and perfectly presented. I was obsessed with my entree, the seared black bass with roasted maitake mushroom, aromatic basil broth. It was incredible. I also loved the crispy artichoke with roasted sunchokes, garlic vinaigrette, celeriac. Finally, the rice cracker crusted tuna was wonderful, though I wasn't in love with the citrus-sriracha emulsion. Our dessert, the gingerbread Bundt cake with cranberry sorbet, tasted just like the holidays. All in all, a wonderful meal.

    I love this restaurant. A group of us got to try a variety of things on the menu, and each dish was phenomenal. They were all, on the surface, familiar dishes - duck, tuna, sashimi, calamari etc. But there was always some kind of twist that made it taste better than any I've ever had before. The best way I can describe it is that there is always something that tickles your tongue and makes you hunger for more, no matter what it is. The meat, in particular, was always perfectly cooked and prepared. Just, wow. Great for the price point and amazing service as well. The ambiance was so relaxing, too. Warmly lit and comfortable, very upscale but not pretentious. It was a bit of a life changing experience, honestly. I can't taste food the same ever again.

    They welcomed us like family. Introduced themselves, sat us right away. Came around often to top us off with water. The cocktails were outstanding, and the food, amazing! I was so impressed. The caviar dish is a must. The asparagus salad is also not to be missed. Both of their cheese appetizers were incredible, the bass was great, and that had to be one of the best salmon dishes I've ever had. The preparation was flawless. The broth was incredible, it was a nice juicy piece with the crispy skin...incredibly well executed. The Balthazar bread is always excellent. The deserts, strawberry shortcake and chocolate dish...delicious. We were full, but made room, they were too good to leave behind. Again, thank you a million times over. Please keep doing what you're doing, all of you. This is truly (STILL) an NYC gem!

    Came here for restaurant week and had such a lovely experience! The inside is upscale and classy, with a gorgeous dining room. The food was excellent too! The highlight of the restaurant week menu was certainly the molten lava cake.

    Molten Chocolate Cake

    Third time visiting Perry Street and can now reliably say it is definitely a charm! This time I came with a group of friends on a Sunday evening and tried their winter restaurant week menu, which is a 3-course menu for $60. Tried their pumpkin and basil pot stickers (with soy-lime and ginger sauce), sauteed pork loin, and molten chocolate cake. Loved the Korean-inspired samjang sauce with the pork loin as it provided a unique twist and boldened the flavor. Service has always been outstanding at Perry Street. We were greeted immediately upon entering. Staff was attentive without being overbearing throughout the meal. Sadly, they were quite busy during restaurant week and we were asked to vacate the table and move to the lounge after about 2 hours of meal time - understandable for sure, but not the most pleasant dining experience (especially since we were not informed of the dining time limit when we made the reservation).

    tea

    Jean Georges always does a good job with the food quality and with the food presentation. Came here for a Sunday night dinner because I wanted to take advantage of the restaurant week deal - 2 courses for $60 (which is more expensive than other places but I think high quality is worth a higher premium on pricing). The service here was great, I asked for tea and they brought it to me in a very pretty / rustic looking saucer cup. The foods: -shrimp dumplings: yummy but maybe a little bit too sweet for the chili for my liking -salmon sashimi: fresh salmon, good quality -roasted hake: the presentation and color of the fish was amazing, I loved how it was an almost translucent color -roast duck: the polenta was really yummy and this presentation was equally amazing, this was probably my favorite dish. Overall thoughts: quality was good and presentation of the dishes were really additive but to me I think the menu was quite ordinary / not as experimental as I had expected. Would recommend since it's good quality and solid food.

    Butter Poached Lobster

    This was definitely my favorite meal of my recent trip and one of the best meals I've had in NYC. Outdoor patio was cute, I was sat immediately. Service was prompt and friendly. The general Manager was a sweetheart and shared his own experience with the food. I ordered the black truffle brie to start. Honey was the perfect accompaniment to the delicious cheese, and i was appreciative of the salad with vinaigrette and berries on the side. My main dish was the butter poached lobster. Chunks of perfectly poached lobster with potato ravioli and spinach, a lemongrass kafir broth poured over top. This has to be one of the best lobster dishes I've ever had. I have to come back just for this.. stuff of dreams. Thanks for the experience, Perry St.

    A friend and I wanted to "celebrate" Restaurant Week. She mentioned Perry St. being on her list, so we decided to come. We found free parking around the corner at 6pm on a weekday so I was happy even before setting foot in the restaurant. The first thing I noticed was Perry St.'s outdoor seating. It was set back from the sidewalk and raised up a bit. There were planters between the tables and the sidewalk which gave diners a bit of privacy from passersby. Upon entering the restaurant, I really liked the clean modern look. The waitstaff was very accommodating and friendly. The food was good and the drinks were even better.

    Does Perry Street still have a prix fixe lunch? No mention of it on their website menu as of 12/27/17.

    Yes it's in the website, but hard to see due to spacing. Look carefully above the second list of appetizers and you'll see "taste of winter menu" or something: $38 for 3 courses.

    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.

It's better than it needs to be, which in this neighborhood counts for a lot. The room is the star. Brass, smoked mirrors, marble, wallpaper with burlesque dancers, very Gatsby cosplay but done with actual money. Think the Campbell at Grand Central, minus the $28 martini attitude. It's also LOUD downstairs. Ask for upstairs if you want to hear your date. Gin is the program here and they take it seriously, house-infused bottles paired with specific tonics, not an afterthought. My G&T was legitimately well built. Food from chef JC Colón is better than cocktail-bar standard: truffle fries in duck fat are worth it, the lobster mac at $31 is rich and fine but you've had it before. Skip dessert. The steak frites at $48 is where I'd tap out, that's real-restaurant money for bar food execution. Here's the move though: weekday happy hour, 4 to 7. Dollar oysters and $13 cocktails in a room this pretty is one of the best deals in Midtown, full stop. Service was warm and fast even slammed. Not a destination, but if you're near Bryant Park or seeing a show, this beats everything else within five blocks. Book ahead, walk-ins were getting turned away by 5:30.

The…read morepull apart truffle monkey bread was our initial reason for coming, and although the price point was quite steep, I would say it's worth the try. The bread was fluffy and not dry, which I had seen previous reviews say before. Paired with the creamy truffle butter, it had a luxurious mouthfeel. My favorite was the pork chop (cognac, sweet prunes, bacon, rosemary) -- the sweet and soft texture of the prune was melted in my mouth like fat, and the pork was tender, with the rosemary also coming through. The vodka rigatoni was a skip, somewhat bland and one-note, we ended up putting some of the truffle butter and garlic aioli from the fries to make it more flavorful. This was especially in contrast with the spicy shrimp pasta which was much tastier. Also got the strawberry vacherin (strawberry ice cream, meringue, vanilla whipped cream), it was my first time having this dessert. The tartness of the strawberry was great with the fluffy meringue and the sweet ice cream. Service was extremely attentive, and the restaurant is beautifully decorated with moody lighting. Although the space was packed, it didn't feel too loud or crowded. We spent about two hours and didn't feel rushed.

I went on a Thursday night, and the place was absolutely packed. The front feels more like a bar/casual area, while the dining room is tucked toward the back. My reservation was at 10:15 PM, so I actually had a light dinner beforehand and ordered a little lighter than I normally would. I got: - Truffle Monkey Bread ($34.99) - Prime Rib French Dip ($39.99) - Pommes Frites ($13.99) - Banana Split Sundae ($24.99) I thought the prices were definitely on the higher end when I first sat down, but the Truffle Monkey Bread is divine! Honestly, it's probably in my top 3 bread experiences of my life. If you love truffle, butter, cheese, and basically everything good in life, please get this. It comes out slightly warm and is just incredible. I will probably dream about this bread. The French Dip was good, although it was a little too salty for me. If I get the chance to come back, I'd probably try one of their actual steaks instead. The pommes frites were super crispy, basically McDonald's fries but elevated. The Banana Split Sundae was so pretty. I loved how they placed all the little treats around the crevices/imprints of the dish (not sure how else to describe it ). It's huge, though, so definitely don't expect to finish it yourself. I'd recommend sharing it with 3+ people. I was also celebrating an anniversary, and they brought out a strawberry scoop for us. It tasted homemade and really fresh. I could actually see pieces of strawberry in it, which I loved. The restaurant is definitely on the pricier side, and getting a dinner reservation can be a struggle, but I'd absolutely go again if I got the chance. The decor is cozy and upscale, the food was excellent, and the whole place has a really nice atmosphere. My only real complaint was that our waitress kept pushing us to order more, which got a little annoying, especially since we had already ordered quite a bit. Overall: expensive + difficult reservation, but absolutely worth trying. And please get the truffle monkey bread.

Good to add as a side to whatever else you get. Cabbage was the best of the trio. - rice bowl: squash and rice were solid, but the shrimp was the standout here! Very flavorful shrimp. Not sure how they packed so much flavor into the little bites of them - fried chicken thighs: I mean, yes. They're juicy. They're fried excellently.

I also distinctly remember the Chrysanthemum Salad, buried under what feels like an unreasonable and therefore perfect amount of shaved Parmesan.

After a short wait, we were sat downstairs and able to order. The mornay fries were so delicious we ended up ordering a second one, while the burger was also delicious.

Luckily, I was by myself, which gave me some wiggle room to grab a seat at the bar. The seating was quite tight, and I was sandwiched between two other people; however, I knew I was lucky just to get a seat. Once I sat down, I was quickly served water. I already knew I wanted the double cheeseburger with bacon and egg, so it didn't take me long to place my order. I definitely enjoyed sitting at the bar because the restaurant has an open-kitchen concept. You can watch the chefs prepare the food, which is always enjoyable for me. The burger itself was definitely an experience! It was beautifully presented, and everything was cooked to perfection. Honorable mention goes to the pepper on the thick-cut bacon- it added a nice savory kick to the burger. I had really been looking forward to trying it because I recently passed by Au Cheval in Chicago, but the wait was extremely long, so I didn't get the chance to go. This burger was definitely good. It's not at the top of my list, but it was worth the experience. I must say, it's also extremely high-end price-wise. For just the burger with bacon and egg, plus tax and tip, I paid about $47. Again, it was a treat, but not necessarily one I'd order again. I'd love to try some of the city's other standout burgers before returning for this one. Would I recommend it? Absolutely! Would I return? Sure, but I would probably try something other than the burger next time.

    We had scored an awesome street parking spot and there was no way we were giving that up, so hubs…read moremade sure wherever we ate was within this area. We reserved for a quick bite at Redeye Grill before catching Dog Day Afternoon on Broadway, but as soon as we walked up, some bouncer told us they were closed for a private wedding reception. We were dazed and confused because how was I able to reserve online? But the real plot twist was that it ended up being the best thing that happened. We actually stumbled into Tanner Smith's thinking it'd be the typical, boring bar-food spot. Nope. They first sat us at a hi-top by the door, but that wasn't our vibe, so we grabbed seats at the bar instead. Best decision. Our bartender, Josiah, was absolutely killing it. My cocktail had passion fruit, so of course I asked my usual question: "But is it real passion fruit?" He just nodded in agreement and that told me everything I needed to know. That drink was legit and had nice strength. The food was great too. My fish tacos were packed with fresh fish, the guacamole and salsa were chunky and full of flavor and hubs enjoyed his pastrami sandwich. I have no clue when we'll be back in Midtown, but one thing's for sure- we're sitting with Josiah again.

    Ordered food to go because the bar was very loud. The music the DJ was playing was good though…read more Ordered buttermilk chicken tenders, shepherd's pie, hot chicken sandwiches, Asian-sesame dry rubbed wings, fries, and tater tots. The shepherd's pie is insanely salty and it's very off-putting. It was inedible. I was looking forward to having it but I would not in good faith recommend this to anyone. The buttermilk tenders is supposed to come with pickled shallots and marinated green beans. We didn't get the pickled shallots or the marinated green beans, which was a shame. The chicken tenders by themselves didn't have much flavor. It also is unfortunate paying $17 for what was considered a small plate and just getting the chicken tenders. The Asian-sesame wings were okay. Also, didn't have much flavor and weren't that impressive. There was also still hair on some of the pieces of chicken, so the chicken could have been cleaned better. They have fries and hand cut fries. The regular fries were soggy. Should have went with the hand cut fries. The tater tots were okay. I was told that the chicken sandwich was good. It came with a little side of rustic chips. I would not come back for the food but I would possibly go back to try a drink if I was in the area. The drink menu looked pretty good.

    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)
