    Caramel Apple Pie
    Udochi M.

    WOWZAAAA! This was the best friend chicken I have literally had in so long! So crispy, crunchy, and absolutely delicious! Plus I do think they have the best fries in the city! Ooh and the apple pie was yumm! A must add to your list and great service as well!

    Service was great and food is solidly good. Atmosphere is trendy with a good vibe. We had the hanger steak and trout...the Chinatown calamari are good too. The oysters were just ok. A good place to meet and have a good meal abs a good time

    Tuna Carpaccio
    Sarah L.

    Absolutely love The Dutch! I've visited here multiple times over the past few months and each time it has been just as great as the last. It's usually pretty busy, but thankfully they have a decent amount of seating both inside and out. My must orders here include the fries, calamari, and cookies! The roasted chicken is always cooked to perfection, and I also love their fried chicken. Whatever sauce is used on their tuna carpaccio is so good! Really can't go wrong here.

    7 oz Dry-Aged Burger
    Melissa A.

    Had a nice dinner at The Dutch recently. The interior is elevated casual, with tables and a bar area. We split the cornbread appetizer, which was good but not particularly unique. I got the burger, which was a well cooked medium-rare. You need to order fries as a side dish, and one order is more than enough for 2 people to share. Overall it was a good dining experience, though not a particularly memorable one. That being said, I did not order anything adventurous or unique, so worth a try for a date night or casual dinner with friends! FYI - the main bathroom is in the basement down a decent flight of steps, but there is a single bathroom on the main floor as well.

    I had such a nice time at The Dutch this past weekend! I was so grateful they could accommodate our large party of seven on a Saturday night. We sat outside and it was lovely. The vibe out there is easy and relaxed but still feels nice. Our server was incredibly kind and knew the menu inside and out. He gave great recommendations and really took care of us. I tried the "Faux Daisy" mocktail to start with and really enjoyed it! Not too sweet, felt like a real cocktail, with a nice hit of orange bitters. My only tiny gripe is I wish there was a little more of it... the ice takes up half the glass, and it's gone in like three sips, but hey, maybe that's just how cocktails go. The cornbread (scallion/chipotle) was really good with amazing butter, though the chipotle flavor was very mild. Our server told us the place is known for their burgers, fried chicken, and hanger steak with house-made kimchi which I thought was so cool. It did take a while for our food to come out, but since we were a big group, I get it. When it arrived, everything came out hot and together, which I appreciate. The burger was good! It was a solid, classic good burger. Didn't blow my mind, but it was flavorful and solid. The hanger steak though? Phenomenal. Perfectly cooked, super flavorful, balanced, with that kimchi, rice, and egg on top... I loved it! My boyfriend was kind enough to share some with me :). The hot honey fried chicken was another standout. Huge portion, totally sharable, and packed with flavor. The fries were like elevated McDonald's fries in that they were thin and crispy, but felt fancy too! I wasn't wild about all the sides being $14... though I know it's NYC. That felt a little steep for 3 pieces of broccolini, but everything we tried was great quality. The duck meatloaf was a fun surprise too. I don't eat duck, but the others said it was amazing and surprisingly mild in duck flavor, so if you're duck-averse, you might still like it. The service overall was just top-notch. You can tell everyone cares about the food and the experience. The ingredients feel high-quality and intentional. It's definitely more of a "nice night out" kind of meal (probably around $50 a person at a minimum). I'd absolutely come back for the vibes, chicken, and steak lol. Be prepared for/to... - Spend a little more than a casual dinner, but get high-quality food in return. - Be impressed by how knowledgeable and kind the staff are. - Get addicted to the fries (big portion and easy to share!!) - A streamlined, somewhat seafood-heavy menu

    Just a good spot for catching up with friends. Some people were in jeans and sneakers, others in sport coats and heels. It really is a place for everybody! The food was good, but only two things I had were memorable. The corn bread (SOOOOO good, wish I ordered more!) and the oysters. We ordered 3 of each option they were offering that day, and to be honest I usually can't taste too much of a difference in what bay the oyster was from. These tasted so fresh, the difference between each bay was night and day! Blindfolded I would be able to distinguish them which for me is a feat because I normally can't. The drinks were also really good, not too weak, not too strong, just right!

    Chinatown Calamari
    Sawako Y.

    We came to the Dutch last night and had a tasty, enjoyable dinner. It was lovely evening out, so we chose to dine outside. It's on the sidewalk with a lot of foot traffic, which was fine except for the occasional smell of smoke. Also, a bug flew into my rosé, but the server kindly replaced it and gave me a coaster to cover it. For food, we ordered the following for 2 to share: - The Prince Platter - Chinatown Calamari - Lemon Roasted Cod - Potato Purée The Prince Platter was nicely presented with oysters (4 kinds x3 each), jumbo shrimp (4 pieces) and lobster salad. I especially like the jumbo shrimp, which were fresh and very plump. The Chinatown Calamari was more like a calamari salad, with cucumbers, carrots and bean sprouts. The calamari was lightly breaded and perfectly fried, which I loved. We didn't try the famous fried chicken, but will have to next time. The Lemon Roasted Cod was a nice, colorful dish and the Potato Puree is a must try for any creamy mashed potato lovers. Our servers were attentive and it was a great meal overall. Inside looked cozy, too, especially for winter months or when it's too hot to dine outside.

    I've been stressed lately. Going through it. In the blender. Just a lot going on, personally and professionally. One of the main stressors being this big deal at work I've legit been chasing for a year. It's been a journey. This client is so hot and heavy one day, then just ghosts me for months. The team knew I was stressing and down bad, as the client said he was going to sign last week and then went radio silent, so they took me to lunch here at the Dutch to take my mind off it. Everyone got a round of drinks, I just stuck with water because alcohol at this point may have sent me past the event horizon. A random thunderstorm began to pour down outside as if to match my mood. As I was sitting there in the beautiful interior of the Dutch feeling sorry for myself, I got a text from the client that read "Did you get the signed contract back?" My heart sank into my chest. I showed my work bestie and we silently walked outside while looking at each other like "oh my god... is this about to finally happen?" I called him in the hallway, as I didn't have anything in my email. I stayed on the phone with him as he re-sent it, and when it came through, me and my homie SPRINTED into the pouring rain chest bumping and hugging. I love that mf. If I saw a movie where this happened, I would have thought it was beyond corny. "That would never happen..." We came back inside drenched in rainwater, and ordered champagne and a round of tequila shots for everyone. We proceeded to get LOADED at 2pm on a Thursday. It was beautiful. Sales SUCKS a lot of the time so you gotta celebrate the wins, and boy did we. Our server, Celeste, was so confused about the vibe shift but just rolled with it like a champ. Big shoutout to Celeste. She's the good luck. I demolished this 8oz dry aged burger and fries, washing it down with tequila on the rocks. I also had half of my big homies AC fried chicken, which was delectable. Full transparency though, anything would have tasted good at this point. If my 20s taught me anything, it's to never tie my self worth to a 9-5 job, but this one felt good I can't even lie. If you ever need to switch the vibe up, roll through to the Dutch. It's much more effective than burning some sage... IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

    Terrible service- tons of ppl standing around; a few rushing around NOT answering your questions/needs; have to ask for things multiple times (and still not get them); plates sitting there empty then ages later someone finally comes around and asks if they can clear an empty plate; upon ordering new food there is no utensil and THEN they ask you "do you need a fork"? This is simply ridiculous, and exhausting. OH additionally the place is hot and stuffy. Really uncomfortable. And unnecessary crowding-- they seated a LOUD party right next to us (in a sparse restaurant) and thus could no longer hear anything. Whyyyyy. Update- thank you for your messages, April- my friend still really loves this restaurant, so hopefully this will be better!

    Chamomile Highball
    Carina H.

    The Chamomile Highball surprisingly tasted like a cocktail rather than a mocktail. I wouldn't say that it reminded me of chamomile as much as I'd say it tasted like it used healthy ingredients. As an appetizer, the Tuna Carpaccio and Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail -- while good -- didn't stand out amongst the appetizers compared to the calamari. The Chinatown Calamari was the best calamari I'd ever had, mostly because of the unique mix of vegetables that gave the calamari a less heavy and oily taste. The Citrus Glazed Salmon was flavorful, although it was cooked just a bit less than I like it. I was disappointed by the meat to salad ratio, but the plate was filling. The staff frequently checked in on our table. The dining space was comfortable, spaced out from the other tables.

    Walked by this place & decided to come here for brunch. We got the fried chicken, black hanger steak and cornmeal flapjacks. All the food tasted decent, flapjacks were a little dry but the blueberry syrup made it better. We really enjoyed the fried chicken with their homemade hot sauce & honey butter biscuits as well as the hanger steak with kimchi fried rice- both dishes were cooked perfectly. Prices were definitely on the higher end, service was excellent- our server, Jennifer was very friendly & attentive, and overall, it was worth trying.

    Lobster Tagliolini
    Jaida F.

    Caught up with my long time friends at the Dutch last night (and yes we did go Dutch at the Dutch ‍)! One of the besties is married to one of their chefs, so when the staff saw that we were coming the made sure to make our night super special Everything was DELICIOUS, we spilt some appetizers (oysters, broccolini, tuna carpaccio, wagyu beef tartare, whipped fava dip) and not a single one disappointed. The tuna was definitely my favorite out of all the stuff we shared, The calamari and slaw that it came with was also out of this world! For my entree, I got the lobster tagliolini and everything about it was perfect. I usually like to add black pepper or crushed red pepper to my pasta but this didn't event need it and the lobster was so tender we finished off dinner with some lovely dessert options including their infamous chocolate chip cookies! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a place to catch up over good food, good drinks with some of your favorite people and look good while doing it

    Wow! I love this place. The atmosphere was charming, the energy was electric, and the staff was warm and welcoming. The food was out of this world. We got the duck meatloaf, and some of the best fried chicken. I absolutely loved the elevated, modern twist. They took on classic food. To top it all off, the dirty martini was one of the best I've ever had.

    Woke up at 5:55 AM PST in order to make this reservation... but overall glad I was able to. 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.

    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.

    Figured it's been a year so I'd update my review. Overall the Corner Store is still hard to get…read moreinto and still worth the hype, although portions have definitely shrunk. 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.

    Finally was able to secure a reservation thanks to the concierge where I was staying. Was it worth…read moreit? After greeting you as you walk up, the first question the door guy asks is if you have a reservation. After being let in (once you said yes), there is a another line at the host stand to verify the reservations, then to be seated. This area is a narrow space between the bar and the staff behind the podium so there will still be a smaller wait outside for those waiting to get in due to tight space. Once seated, the bartender Meaghan came over immediately to greet us, offering sparkling, still or tap water. Alongside your glass, there was a selection of citrus (lemon/lime/orange) or cucumber to add which was a nice touch. Although I already had an idea of what I wanted, I went a completely different direction once she mentioned the off-menu selections. This ended up being the heirloom tomato salad (I know, when the heck have I ever ordered anything like this) which was $20, and a side of their hand-cut fries, $13.95. You are to order everything at once, and they course it out accordingly. The people next to me ordered a lot of food; most of it the popular items which I veered away from with the exception of the fries. The party on the other side went with two items I was considering prior so it was nice to see what these looked like up close. The tomato salad was very good! I normally scrape off onions but I actually ate all of them and the taste didn't 'stay with you' which I was grateful for, while the basil flavor was a nice contrast. These were the larger beefsteak style tomatoes so I was fork and knifing this dish. I will admit this, along with the fries, were a little more salty than what I am used to but it was delicious overall. I almost considered a sauce with the fries but they honestly did not need it; the flavor was more than enough on their own. Wasn't planning on it, but I ended up adding the apple hand pies ($19) which were pretty good. They didn't have anything really chocolate-based, so this was the next best thing. Since they come in an order of two, I ended up taking the other hand pie to go. Restrooms are right past the bar, down a flight of steps and there are two single-sex doors. If you are seated at the bar, you pretty much have no reason to go past that into the dining room so it felt like a subtle off-limit area (and staff was there to direct you where to go). Truth is, I really didn't want to like this place. I didn't want to have to deal with scoring a reservation in the future however the food I had was decent (and there are still some items I want to try), service from the doorman, Meaghan, the food runners, and hostesses was fantastic, and the atmosphere was great. You may also end up talking to fellow diners comparing dishes, and it made for an enjoyable experience all around. I'd say it was worth it.

Dark and very low lighting. Customer service is attentive as I was greeted by the hostess upon entry in a bar parlor style seating area. I did not lie in wait for a table. I was promptly seated at a high table in the dark. I did not need a booth. I was willing to be seated at the bar counter. Facilities are relatively clean. Double Smash burger $26.00 Features two thin, crispy beef patties immersed in iceberg, pickles, caramelized onions, American cheese, special sauce with French fries The burger was average as I did engulf within minutes to satisfy my hunger pangs. There were minimal lettuce and seemingly no pickles. Intimate and casual atmosphere does not make the optimal lighting for visual assessment. My male server stated "it is really not two patties, but it is one large patty separated into two." Truth: it is two thin beef patties. It was good, but not juicy filled with intense flavor for seasoning. The French fries were somewhat burnt because it waa hard. At the bottom of the sales receipt there is a suggested gratuity in intervals of high intensity extortionate 25%, 22% and 20% where customers do not have to perform math calculation. I did obtain my sales receipt as keepsake. Business cards are available for grabs.

    Absolutely awful experience. Never again. Do NOT recommend…read more One of the staff, in charge of refilling water, spilled water on our table multiple times. I watched him spill on other tables as well. He never apologized. He never wiped it up. Then 4th time he filled our glasses, he spilled the water on my wife. He did not apologize. He did not even acknowledge it and it was very clear that he noticed he did it. My wife, quite restrained, let our waitress know what happened. Her response: "What do you want me to do about it?" My wife said that he should not serving water if he doesn't know how to pour it properly. The waitress, moments later, told him what we had said, merely inches from our tables. Beyond awkward. And, instead of coming over and apologizing, he simply never returned to our table. No more water. The waitress had an attitude with us since we sat down - no idea what we could have done - unsure what was going on - but it was beyond unpleasant. Most of our "table conversation" was about how lousy the staff were acting and how uncomfortable we felt along with how much we couldn't wait to leave. We had shared an appetizer and had no interest in ordering anything else after that. We paid. We left. I feel stupid for tipping them.
