The Maitra D was wonderful and the service was wonderful and attentive . The decor was out of this world and I loved the caricatures. I got to see Anne Golden sitting under her caricature . The food was okay . I've eaten better . I guess Sardis is an iconic place but the food was reheated and it showed . read more

Sardi's is a staple in the entertainment community, and I'm surprised I hadn't been before. When you walk in, it truly feels like you've stepped back in time. Their are caricatures of every notable actor you can imagine, and every time a new caricature is added, they host a special event in a private room. I came late night with a group of rowdy ladies and just had a coffee and dessert. The menu is your typical Italian fare - something to please anyone. I'd be happy to come back and sample a couple of their apps and entrees. If you love Broadway and want a unique restaurant experience, definitely make a point to come to Sardi's. It's a New York institution that deserves all the love. read more

My kids treated me to lunch here. Always wanted to see it. Amazing. The food the ambiance everything was beautiful

he terrific food and historic atmosphere were comprised by the inept service. We had to point out to our server that there was butter on the table but no bread. After we asked for dessert menus and he brought them, he completely forgot about us for twenty minutes as he handled a larger party at the far corner of the restaurant. There was no excuse for this because it was during the theater hour and the restaurant was practically empty! We finally resorted to flagging down another server and asked her to take our dessert order. Also, why did a simple order for espresso then take fifteen minutes? Again, the restaurant was practically empty. The serving staff here has got to get its act together. This dinner was meant to be a special occasion, but the service lapses were frustrating to us and embarrassing for the restaurant. read more

Have to love going to Sardi's before a show. It's a classic NYC staple in the theater district. Best spot in my opinion, is getting a table or a bar seat (which are hard to find if you don't go early) upstairs. Upstairs is the bar menu, but still great options. Highly highly recommend the baby kale salad. I would honestly go out of my way to come here for this salad. Service is a bit weird as you need to order from the bar (even if you are at a table) - - again this is just upstairs - - but bartenders are fantastic and very attentive. The vibes are great as majority of the people around are waiting to see a show, so lots of energetic and positive vibes :-) read more

Horrible food, Horrible service and extremely overpriced

Tough to get more iconic than Sardi's. Always been on that silly Bucket List thing for me. We sat upstairs which at first brought disappointment as I did not realize there were iconic photos up there as well as downstairs. But sure enough, plenty to gaze at and talk about. Food was good. We were celebrating our son's birthday and getting ready for a show. So it was a fun event all around. Service was awesome. It is cool when a joint like Sardi's steps up service because it does not really have to given its history. Even if the service was bad, we would still say we went to Sardi's. read more

Good food, better service, great atmosphere but it's a little bit rushed. It's a fun time though eating where so many of the stars are.

I was so excited to go here. This is truely a broadway must. The photos of all the celebrities covering the walls in so inspirational. I will be up there one day. The food and service are great but I loved being in a world renowned place and I also got my photo taken with Kermit as scene in the movie Muppets take Manhattan. Seen or be seen this is a great place to see the whose who from Broadway. Dont be surprised to do a lot of celebrity sittings here. read more

I loved everything about my dining experience here. Food, service, atmosphere is 10/10

I mean...it's just "ok", especially at these prices. Stopped in for lunch with some friends who were going to a matinee play, during mid week. On average, burger and turkey club w/ fries is going to run you $26 + tax and tip. Entrees and lunch specials, go up from there. It took way too long for our simple order to pop out. (about 45 mins) and there were only about 3 other tables occupied when we arrived during the open. Second...the waiters "hover". Almost right in the center of the room. It got annoying when they kept asking us if we wanted more bread, and filling our water glasses up. Almost intrusive. My friends had their hearts set on this place, but it would never be my first choice, and there are simply too many other options in the area. It's one of those modern day stories. Used to be something special...now things have changed. read more

Was happy to get to come here during their soft reopening due to COVID-19! There weren't many people here on the weeknight I came (tho Times Square was bustling), likely because the reopening was so recent. We got attention from multiple waiters and the service was top notch. The cannelloni was delicious and the Irish coffee to top off the evening was the best I've had outside of Ireland (served with real actual heavy whipped cream, not the fake stuff or mere creamer). read more

This is a must that when you are on Broadway, well this is what we always thought, and I agree! You can come for the nostalgia or a great meal. Of course you're find hundreds of caricature on the walls of celebrities who have either stopped in to say hello, dine or want their place on the wall. That in itself is a good time. On to the experience. Of course the service was impeccable prompt, friendly, clean down to (or up to) the attendant in the ladies room. Let's not look for any updates on the Decour but that's what makes this place iconic. There is a vast menu and plenty to drink. I went at lunchtime before a matinee show on Broadway. The pork chops with a potato and broccoli rabe was perfection. I have to say I truly enjoyed myself I did get a decent amount of food for my money. This is something I'm sure I would do again. read more

Going to a show then it's like you can't have Broadway without Sardis. The restaurant has been around and a broadway staple for 100 years. Actors and actresses and shows producers have all dined here.Server Cassie and Maitre D Naseef always make sure everything is perfect for me. Canneloni. Club sandwich or burgers are good as are the salads.The Shubert organization knew the importance of Sardis returning after the pandemic and allowed them to go rent free for the 21 months they were closed. Pre or post theatre and the bar stays open for lighter items til midnight. read more

I selected Sardi's because it was close to where a former colleague was staying while in NYC for business. I arrived early and had a pleasant conversation with the bartender while waiting for my party to arrive. He served an excellent bourbon Manhattan. Food was very good. I had a shrimp cake appetizer, jumbo shrimp entree and apple crumb cake. Prices were reasonable. Wine list is limited. My only issue was that although the restaurant was not crowded, we felt rushed. I hadn't seen this former colleague in a few years and we had a lot of catching up to do, but the wait staff seemed impatient and while not rude, they were not very friendly. I politely asked if they were closing soon (it was only around 8pm) as a way of expressing my displeasure. Overall, the food, prices, ambiance and convenient location were great. I just wished I didn't feel rushed, especially when the place seemed somewhat empty. I'll give them another chance though. read more

Tired menu - burger not great and neither was the signature cannelloni. Need to adapt and improve menu. Service was very mechanical for a lunch before a broadway show. Checked the box on being here - won't be back - too many other better food places to try read more

Very nice restaurant. We walked to it after trying to eat at Carmines which had a very long wait. We decided to keep walking and came across Sardi's. I'm glad we did. The food at Sardi's was delicious. I had the kale salad and cannelloni. They have good menu options. The service was awesome. The wait staff was very attentive. Great dinner experience! Nice place. read more

We have been dining at Sardi's for years mainly because of the excellent service and Shawn and Ivan making us feel at home! We were very disappointed to find out they were no longer with them but we were quickly met with a very pleasant surprise by the new maitre d, Betsy. Young, fresh, caring and genuine, she made us quickly feel right back at the home away from home that we remember. My husband and I agree that seeing a manager genuinely care about not only the customers but staff as well brings a whole new level to hospitality. Our server, Brandon, was also a great team addition. He was kind and attentive and even sent us a dessert! Although some of our favorite items were no longer on the menu, we had a lovely experience and are excited to return to the new and improved Sardi's! read more

This place screams old Manhattan. The gaudy entrance, red carpeting and dining room with tables and chairs everywhere are all about the people watching and over the top New York experience. The food that I've tried was beautifully plated and tasted great. I definitely recommend the scallops, the cobb salad, the steak and the burger. They offer a prix fixe and specials menu which are a good deal. Sardi's is great for a pre-theater meal or drink as they are great with handling timing of the food and the service is generally attentive. All of the cartoon portraits on the walls of the whole restaurant are great for conversation and intriguing out of town guests. Nonetheless, this is a great spot to check out for residents of the City as well. Think of it as on the same level as having to visit the Empire State building or the statue of Liberty; it's a rite of passage. The bathrooms are upstairs, near the second dining room and cocktail bar. Heading to the restrooms, one passes the free coat check room and also allows for exploring the venue. No one minds you getting up to view the portraits, so have at it. Overall a nice venue, admittedly pricey but, very worthy of checking out. Even if it's just to say you did, although you'll be happily surprised. read more

Made a reservation for the same evening to see Sunset Blvd. Only time slot that was available was for 6:30PM which I thought was cutting it close since we have an 88-year-old senior with us. The reservationist assured us that we had plenty of time. When we arrived, we were seated immediately, and the servers were ready to go. Cassie, our primary server, was amazing. Very kind to our 88-year-old mother/mother-in-law and did everything to make her feel special and getting us out on time to make the show. Thank you, Cassie. The place is always buzzing with theater goers, so the energy is high which I love. The food is always good there. We love sitting at the bar area when we can. Lots of interaction with folks. Sardi's is my go-to when going to Broadway. read more

In the heart of Times Square this restaurant has been around for quite a long time and has been visited by many celebrities over the years. The interior provides a warm and comfortable feel as a classic steakhouse will. The staff are extremely attentive, and want to ensure your satisfaction. They have a wonderful wine menu to choose from. I ordered a Caesar to start with which was very well prepared. I moved onto the 10 oz sirloin which was cooked perfectly. They have excellent sides to compliment, I enjoy the potatoes. Whether it be pre-theatre or post theatre you will thoroughly enjoy your meal. Enjoy the warm chocolate cake with melted center and coffee for desert! read more

I was treated to Sardi's for my birthday lunch today. I had been there a few times in the past. The food and service were outstanding as was the atmosphere.

My GF and I had a show last night at 8pm. We arrived to the restaurant around 7pm and were seated instantly. The waiter we were assigned to, John, was phenomenal. He instantly asked us if we were seeing a show and once we told him the show and time he said he would make sure our food would be ready in time. He did a great job and was so caring to make sure our night was good. read more

My review of Sardi's restaurant. This is a very beautiful and elegant restaurant with a lot of history. Many famous actors in movie stars have pretty much everyone from Lucille Ball to Gracie Allen, just to name a couple. However I was not impressed with the food especially since I got McDonald's french fries with my cheeseburger. But then that might be my fault for not ordering something like shrimp scampi or lobster ravioli. However I have to say for a restaurant this fancy you would think they would make their own hand cut french fries. And that's all I have to say about that. read more

Was fine, service was slow considering they were not that busy Christmas weekend. Ran out of spaghetti bolognese..... but had it for a crape roll up didn't get that....

Classic new York Italian restaurant with decades worth of caricatures. It's definitely the usually place I would frequent as it is very touristy, but we went with a work group. The food was fine and the ambiance fun, but the service was truly great. The staff really knows their business which is great. Not something that can be changed, but I did not like that the restrooms were on the second floor. read more

Amazing NYC experience in the heart of Times Square. Our Broadway show ended earlier than we estimated. So we got to Sardi's 30 minutes prior to our reservations. Nevertheless, we were seated quickly and the service and food were impeccable. The ambiance with the caricatures added to our experience. I highly recommend. read more

Service was excellent! Food was great and prices were reasonable. Very close to theaters.

It's sad to see this place having gone down the drain. Sad sad service level and Low quality food. Was a huge disappointment. I should have figured out when I walked in on Friday diner time the place was almost completely empty there must have been at least twelve waiters hanging around. Some spoke english and understood. We had to wait for 12 minutes before anyone took our drink orders. Then the bread guy completely ignored us there times when I asked if they had sourdough bread. Once they finally took our order it took at least 32 minutes before our food came out. As expected l, the food had dat there for a long time and it was cold as ice. In the meanwhile, the manager guy in the fancy suit gave me a bunch of mumbo jumbo as to why I had to wait an hour for my appetizer Would not go back ever again. read more

Well-known, American restaurant where actors would stop by after their performances. Right next to all the Broadway theaters, so it's very conveniently located if you're heading to a show right before or after. Atmosphere: It's a mix - some folks were dressed very nicely for shows, whereas others were much more casual. It overall has a casual vibe. The coolest part about this place are all the caricatures of famous celebrities posted along the wall. The servers were friendly, but ours was not super attentive. Generally (70%+) seemed like they were in the 50-60 year old age range. The service was quite slow - we waited for around 30 minutes for some chicken sandwiches and fries. Highlight: A huge shout-out to the woman that ran the bathroom stalls. She had such a positive attitude and made sure all the women passed through very efficiently! Major props to her - I only wish I got her name to thank her! Food: Pretty below average, honestly, and definitely overpriced. We ordered a few chicken sandwiches, which were just little portions of grilled chicken, thrown together with some lettuce, and bread that was not toasted well. The sandwiches also were too dry and required more mayo. The weirdest thing was - after we got our water, the server came over with an excessive amount of ketchup, for each member of our group - we each literally got our own dish of ketchup. I thought to myself - to what end?? And what's even funnier - the food did not come out for at least 30 minutes AFTER the excessive ketchup came out. It's almost like they intended us to eat the ketchup as appetizers or something. Very very bizarre. Overall: 2/5 - I'd only come back for convenience and to stare at all the caricatures. The food is nothing special, and I can get my excessive ketchup elsewhere, at a lower price point :) read more

This is a historic restaurant so I had to eat here between Broadway shows. Of all the places I ate on my own this restaurant did not seat me in a corner. They had just reopened as I over heard. I was seated near theater actors and show goers. The service was excellent and my food good Italian fair. It goes without saying that the ambiance was interesting with all the famous people's drawings on the wall of people who have frequented the restaurant. I understand all by the same artist. read more
