Musket Room, you've ruined me. Everything we had was just so good--like quietly-sit-there-and-chew-in-awe good. We started with the crudo, which was insanely fresh and basically melted on contact. Then came the jamón croquettes which... I don't even know how to describe. Crispy, salty, perfect. Like if a mozzarella stick went to Europe and got a PhD. The salmon with trout roe and dashi broth? Honestly, I'm still thinking about that broth. I wanted to ask for a to-go cup and sip it on the way home like a sad little soup goblin. The duck was rich and tender and came with cherries that somehow made the whole dish feel flirty? I don't know. It worked. And dessert was a grilled peach with mascarpone that made me feel like I was doing something good for my body even though it was mostly cream. Service was lovely. Vibe was relaxed but still felt special. Would 100% come back and order all of this again. Might even share next time. No promises.
This was a nice tasting menu. I had the vegan option. Pea Tartlet - vegetal and fresh, with a nice roasted corn note from the crust. Sourdough and sunflower butter - the bread has a ton of deeply developed flavor, great airy crumb, and a crispy crust. The butter tastes flavorful and it's easy to forget it's vegan. Gazpacho - fresh, herbaceous, and a variety of textures, with some slight sweetness from the melon. Tomatoes - sweet, savory, and tart. There was a nice balance between the tomatoes, plums, and the clear broth at the bottom. This tasted fresh and summery. Squash Blossom - crispy, and strong truffle flavor. I noticed a distinct, overpowering astringent note in the puree, almost like olive oil was allowed to smoke. This was probably the only thing out of balance the whole night. Gnocchi - the supplement was totally worth it, as this was my favorite dish. The earthy savoriness from the chanterelle mushrooms balanced well with the crispy and perfectly chewy gnocchi and the herbal and nutty sauce base. Turnip - intensely savory, with a touch of brightness to cut through. The fried patty at the middle was my favorite part for the slight crispiness it brought. Coconut sorbet - light and refreshing palate cleanser with coconut and lime flavors. The soda comes from an old timey soda bottle, which I thought was a cool touch. Cherry and chocolate - a great execution of a classic. The cream doesn't taste vegan in the least bit. The chocolate is also fruity on its own, which plays nicely with the cherry. The meal, gnocchi addition, and a drink came to $205 with tax and tip. It's pricey, but not as expensive as other tasting menus in the city. Definitely worth a try.
Dare I say this is better than Dirt Candy?! Every course felt like an ode to the simplicity of fresh vegetables with unique flavor pairings. I can honestly say I went in thinking I wouldn't like the cabbage entrée but wow, that's how cabbage done right. My favorite was the Delicata squash because it comes with a spicy purée in the middle and with pomegranate seeds to balance the spice. The only thing that was lacking imo was the dessert. Vegan cheesecake is hard to pull off. The cheesecake definitely needed a proper crust. Other important notes were the attention to detail. They offered complimentary coat check and a box of petit fours. The meal was paced so perfectly over the 2 hours we spent.
(Rating 3.75) Given that I am such a foodie, it seems to come as a shock to people (and me) that I had not been to a Michelin star restaurant. I was shopping on the street on a Friday night after work and noticed that unmistakable red sign on the window and decided it was now or never. I was promptly seated at the bar and opted for their a la carte menu (instead of the tasting). All the staff here are top tear. The bartender was so attentive and lovely - and very knowledgeable about his craft and food, in general. I got the sticky beak for my drink and it was so cute. Based off the description, I did expect it to be a little sweeter, but regardless it was a good drink and the foam on top was such a fun treat at the end. Meal wise, I started with the gnocchi. I actually haven't had gnocchi before (the concept never made sense to me because why are we combining potatoes and pasta?) but as a lover of potatoes, of course I enjoyed this. I really loved the texture and the and flavors of everything together. Really solid introduction to the meal (and to gnocchi) for me. I followed up with the duck - which I unfortunately was not very fond of. The dish was heavily carried by the sauces and garnishes because the duck itself had no flavor. Maybe even a heavier hand in salting the protein would've helped it, but I can say that the cook on it was perfect. At this point I was a little disappointed - was this really a Michelin star restaurant? But I am so happy that I decided to get dessert and even happier that the bartender recommended I try the trio of seasonal ice creams cause that right there is exactly what I was expecting from this experience. All the ice creams had an herby/savory element to them. The descriptions were really long, but I believe there was a honey/rosemary, mint/cucumber and one that was lemon based. I'm generally not too big of a fan of sorbets, so the mint one didn't resonate with me as much (this is more of a personal preference thing, not that it was a bad) but the other two... oh my god. The honey one came with some honeycomb and wow what an amazing texture and flavor. I had such a FUN time eating ice creams with such complex flavors. I usually shy away from ice creams when I go out for dinner, but this was a true culinary experience and couldn't sing higher praises. This place was pretty cool. I'd love to come back at some point to try their tasting menu, so let me start saving up for that, haha.
Good value. Not much really stood out aside from a couple of the omnivore courses. I hear very good things about the vegetarian prefix but I didn't try that. The seven course menu won't really have you feel full. We got second dinner after this one. The cold brew negroni was fantastic, the other drinks were lackluster. The outside garden is pleasant, but the AC is pretty loud. I would sit inside by the window facing the garden. Best seat in the house. It's an easy reservation to get, and gives you some impressive variety for a decent price. So taking all that into consideration, it gets a cautious recommend.
The was an amazing experience from beginning to end. We had reserved the outdoor garden room, as we were traveling to New York to celebrate my dogs 12th birthday. The day of our reservation, they informed us they were closing the garden room due to weather, but they said they would still create a space for us in the restaurant so we could bring our dog, as they knew it was her special day. I really appreciate the extra effort they made to make this happen The staff was ultra friendly and welcoming, from the communication before we arrived, to the ultra welcoming host and all the servers throughout the meal. And of course we can't forget about the food. Every dish was perfect. from their small bites, breads, mains and desserts, they all tasted amazing. They even served a sweetbread course, and I've never been a fan of sweetbread, but this was the first time I actually enjoyed it. I love when a restaurant figures out a way to open my mind.
Step aside everyone else As someone who's very passionate about fine dining, I often get asked what the best "deal" in nyc is for a solid tasting menu Without a shred of doubt, Musket Room has the most incredible deal out of any high end place I've eaten in the city. I booked a reservation for one right near my birthday to try this place for the first time. After finishing multiple infused vodka carafes at my mainstays (Mari Vanna and RVR), my friend wanted to join me. We have tried to do fine dining escapades before but it has never worked. I swear we are cursed. The last time we tried this, he ended up throwing up in a 1* bathroom, my phone died, and we met up after I got the four course prix fixe to go in a state of egregious vexation. I called them and they immediately accommodated my last minute request for an extra diner. The Musket Room was truly a symphony of flavors. Every course on their $125 tasting menu delivered a memorable punch to the palate. The true standouts to me were the caviar course (the citrus herbal elements took this to a level I could hardly fathom), the tuna and pear crudo (I USED to think crudos on tasting menus were lazy until I experienced the absolutely blissful combo of Tuna, pear, and dill here), the pork jowl (as someone who moved to Atlanta 3 years ago, I'm shocked they delivered perfectly executed southern BBQ and grits here), and the dessert croque-Monsieur (I thought I was going to hate it, but I seriously would shove these down my throat every waking second if given the chance). If you read through that horrible run on sentence, then you know Musket Room is worth it. And you SHOULD go.
The Musket Room was incredible! Ate here during our trip to NYC for our birthdays and did their tasting menu. Started out with caviar service and then went through 7 incredible courses. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive. Notable dishes were the Scallop with Tamarind and the Razor Clam with Potato. Highly recommend!
Located in Greenwich Village this restaurant is easily accessible by metro, bus, taxi, etc. Do not recommend driving yourself or parking or wine pairing! We were pleasantly greeted and quickly seated. We had a reservation, which is highly recommended for this restaurant with both Michelin and James Beard recognition. Appreciate the fact that the dress code was relaxed in the extremely hot weather so that my husband could wear dress shorts in lieu of pants. Enjoyed every course of our tasting menu immensely. Particularly, the foam cauliflower soup, which was extraordinary and surprising. Anchovy butter served with sourdough bread was a nice twist. Would've appreciated a little bit more explanation of our food as they were so exquisitely and delicately prepared. The wine pairing was fun, different and very well done. Honestly, not sure that the pasta add on was good value for the money. The Wagyu option extra was definitely worth it. Enjoyed our meal and would definitely recommend to anyone that appreciates high quality in their food and service.
The musket room has been on my list of Michelin star restaurants to try for awhile. We made a reservation a few days before for a weekday dinner spot, weekends were taken so make your reservations early. It's located close to a couple of train stations so commuting was easy. The restaurant was elegantly decorated and our server was very nice. Their tasting menu seemed very reasonably priced and had many courses and they were nice enough to swap out things for our food restrictions. The presentation of each dish as you can see was wonderful, the mix of flavors were very unique. The sour dough bread and anchovie butter was a very unique bread dish that was memorable. The wagyu stake, which was a +$30 from the actual menu, was not as tender as I expected, and we actually preferred the pork more, which did not need extra cost. Overall cooking was worth the visit and they also had an extensive wine selection that was fun to choose from. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a romantic night out.
Celebrated an anniversary at the Musket Room and had a wonderful time. The decor is rustic and presented a laid back vibe, however the staff were all top notch. From the acknowledgement of our celebration from multiple staff members to the attentiveness throughout the entire meal and accommodations for food aversions/allergies, they exceeded even my high expectations from this caliber of restaurant. We were seated at a spacious table and never felt rushed throughout the night. We had the omnivore menu and many dishes from the vegan menu, two supplements, a wine pairing, Mocktail, and we ordered a decadent chocolate cake ahead of time to celebrate the evening. All of the menu items were superb, some highlights were the Kristal caviar cauliflower foam course, Iberico ham and smoked mussels supplement, Ora king salmon substitution, and the tomato tofu dish. I would not hesitate to order everything on the menu again. Additionally, the wine pairing was outstanding, paired wonderfully, and a great value, and the Somm was awesome and willing to answer any of my questions. The fact that this wonderful restaurant is on InKind just increases the value.
Celebrated Valentines Day here, and got to experience the Musket Room x Salt&Straw menu. We were really impressed how they were able to weave in the ice cream/sweet aspect into all the dishes. The cocktail I got had sorbet inside which was cute, but definitely too sweet for me. The food was perfect though, we thoroughly enjoyed every dish. Service was great and the sommelier was so nice.
A wonderful spot that provides a fantastic Vegan tasting menu and an omnivore option for those who are not of the same palate. This is a review of the tasting menu for Omnivore $145 and iberico pork supplement for $18 (4/5) Honestly, the white asparagus ALONE could have made this place a 5/5 because those are some phenomenal veggies. Texture, plating, and each bite being a new surprise was an EXPERIENCE. Service is on-point, they always made sure we were okay and refilled accordingly even without being asked. Exquisite Service for sure. (5/5) Other than that this is probably one of the best Vegetarian tasting menus that a person can get as Musket Room is making strides. A point taken down because the casual atmosphere brought some really loud guest that took away from appreciating the environment or food as a nice date spot. Some of the food also did not really hit like the halibut or potato cauliflower. Can't say I was the biggest fan of them. If you do get the garden (It is a rule that you MUST be punctual, it would be an EASY 5/5. It looks beautiful and most likely out of the way from all the noise) The Musket room is absolutely worth the visit for Vegans specifically and for those willing to give Vegan tasting menus a try as the Omnivore gives you the best of both worlds. P.S. The bathroom is great. No complaints. It is very clean and you honestly feel rude messing it up.

I had friends visiting and had been wanting to try this place and managed to get us a reservation! It was beautiful outside on the patio, the service was superb everyone is so friendly and very knowledgeable in wine. We did the tasting menu and it blew me out of the water. On my top memorable experiences in the city. read more

Loved, loved this place! Our original plan was to go all out with the tasting menu but were unfortunately unable to all commit so we ended up choosing our favs to try instead. I loved every single dish we tried. The attention to detail with the taste profiles were top notch and the presentation was lovely as well. We started with the sourdough and sunflower bread service --- The bread was served perfectly warm with a nice crust and soft interior complemented with an assortment of spreads that were lovely. We also tried the potato gnocchi which were nice as well. For mains -- we went with the duck, cabbage, wagyu beef. All were perfectly prepared with lovely accompaniments that really sealed the deal on the dish. I always love a Michelin star experience without the Michelin star attitude. The vibe is very moody but chill with knowledgeable but chill staff. I overall enjoyed my visit and would be a regular if I lived in the area. read more

My date and I found the ambiance to be exceptional. The customer service was sublime, and I will surely be coming back here! My top favorites from their vegan menu were the Trio of Canapés: Seaweed Caviar with Ramp and Cucumber, and the Carrot with Spring Garlic, Tofu & Celtuce. They paired beautifully with DOMAINE BELLEGARDE, MANSENG BLEND, 'PIERRE BLANCHE' Jurançon, France 2022, and MARKUS MOLITOR, RIESLING, HIMMELREICH, SPÄTLESE Mosel, Germany 2018. read more
Simply amazing! We had the omnivore tasting menu with the following three add ons: Kristal Caviar Service with Crème Fraîche, Egg Confit & Japanese Milk Bread $115 Jamón Ibérico with Smoked Mussels, Potato & Saffron $18 Potato Gnocchi with Morels, Pistachio & Loroco $28 The flavors in the dishes from the tasting menu were fantastic. They felt very heavy and rich. We also enjoyed the add ons. The milk bread and crème fraiche really brought out the caviar flavors! The service was fantastic too. read more
Visited again for a la carte service. Our server again was amazing. We decided to get the bread and spreads. I really enjoyed the anchovy butter, the ricotta spread. The chicken liver mousse spread was flavorful, but not my favorite. We ordered another round of bread ($6) that came with more anchovy butter and it was definitely not wasted! Yum! Hamachi crudo - fresh, but again, if you go to sushi / omakase resturants, it is not something unique Rabbit - interesting presentation, tasted like very soft chicken Wagyu - cooked well Salmon - this was recommended by the server. I usually don't order fish because I make pretty good fish at home just by baking. However, this was the best dish out of all of them. And we used bread to dip into the sauce ::chef's kiss:: Espresso martini - WOW, got this last time and got it again. Always a great place for dinner and cocktails. read more
TLDR: Beautiful presentation and a great place for an occasion dinner. This restaurant definitely deserves its Michelin star for presentation and ambiance alone. The service was also lovely and the a la carte gave us options to customize our menu. We highly recommend trying an array of dishes read more
I came here for a dinner with a party of four. We sat inside. They have a nice garden patio at the back of the restaurant for those who prefer to eat outdoors. Our server was fantastic. He was very helpful with cocktail descriptions. One of my friends arrived a half hour late and our server was willing to ask the chef to make special accommodations for her. To drink, I had the Rocket Power. The arugula and braulio gave it a pleasant herbal, vegetal taste. It was light and refreshing. We opted for the six course tasting menu. They have an optional wine pairing you can add on as well. They also have a la carte dining. Overall, I enjoyed the vegan tasting menu. The portion sizes were on the smaller side so I wasn't stuffed by the end of the meal. The vegetable preparations were artful and creative. However, I didn't feel memorably wowed by any particular course. I think including a slightly heavier dish with a pasta or rice would have helped round out the meal. They served the bread with the first course, which was a bit surprising, but it was nice to have it on hand to soak up the sauces from each dish. After the meal, they gave each guest a small to-go box with desserts inspired by the flavors from the food courses, which was a cute, thoughtful touch. The meal didn't quite leave me raving, but still a lovely experience for a special occasion. read more

Let me start by saying that the service at this restaurant is incredible. Our waitress was honestly so lovely and kind. We ordered the vegan tasting menu, and unfortunately it is difficult to describe just how off-putting the food was. There really wasn't any cogent theme to the menu (aside from all the different forms of cabbage we were served) and it felt like an afterthought of whatever the kitchen had lying around. For example, one of the dishes was half of a cored apple, slightly cooked, floating in a warm soup broth and paired with kohlrabi (i.e., a cultivar of cabbage). Half of an apple. I've never entered a restaurant in anticipation that I might get to eat half of a nearly raw apple on a tasting menu. Later in the meal, we were served a charred wedge of cabbage. More cabbage! It was a rather sizable portion of cabbage, too. Again, more cabbage. Is it cabbage season? The chef's at The Musket Room have a wicked penchant for this cruciferous vegetable. I couldn't even finish the dish - partly due to a distended abdomen, and partly because, well, just how much cabbage can an individual diner consume in one evening (I'm not asking this rhetorically, I genuinely want to know out of sheer morbid curiosity)? It really felt like they were trying to fill us up on cheap fruits and vegetables-which, in hindsight, worked. As a vegan, perhaps the best analogy I can offer would be that feeling of disappointment you get when you get on an airplane for a long trip, and the animal-free in flight meal they serve you consists of cold quinoa, some weird vinaigrette, 2 grapes, and some super-earthy tasting plastic-wrapped grainy crackers, and all you can think is "Does the airline truly believe this is what vegans eat? This mess is something you would only consume on a dare...for money." And then, because you feel so awful wasting any food, you force it down while wiping away the tears and do your best to remain conscious after the assault on your senses. The restaurant itself was pretty laidback and had a good vibe. The food (if that's what we are labelling it), does not come with a high recommendation. read more
I had read a lot about The Musket Room - it was nominated for a James Beard and has a Michelin star - so I was excited to give it a shot. Honestly, the staff was so nice, but everything else was subpar. The tasting menu was overpriced given the portion size and creativity of the six course meal. I wasn't blown away by anything. The presentation of everything was pretty on par with a nice restaurant. They were a bit creative with the plating for the lamb and dessert, but everything else was average. Given the hype, I was underwhelmed. The food is still good, just not worth the price of the tasting menu and the praise the restaurant has received. You will also need to eat a whole roll of bread in order to leave full. read more

We had an amazing experience here. Our party of 3 got 2 Herbivore and 1 omnivore set, and it was so so good. I loved the fact that there are great options for vegetarians, which is hard to Find sometimes with set menus. The staff was amazing and the whole experience was so enjoyable. Really tasty food, really good drinks and everything was made so enjoyable by the overall vibe of the restaurant. Would 100% return and highly recommend. read more

Amazing!! I've been to a lot of 1 Michelin stars that have left me disappointed in the past, but musket room EXCEEDED my expectations. $125 for 7 courses is extremely fair for what you get. The service was very attentive. The highlights are: -homemade sourdough boule with anchovy butter (10/10)- this butter was OUT OF THIS WORLD. literally tasted like I was eating caviar on warm, buttery bread. -Kristal caviar foam (10/10)- the texture of this dish blew me away. the foam evaporates on your tongue but has an incredible savoriness and umami. the caviar portion is generous and really compliments the foam. I couldn't get enough the scallop was the sweetest and freshest I had in a while; the oyster was good; the broth used with the mackerel was light yet extremely rich; the cherry cornbread was surprisingly good. they also give a little 3 treat dessert box to go. I don't usually feel compelled to revisit restaurants, but this has made my list. go check it out!! read more

Solo dined for a special occasion, I was sat at the window table where I could people watch as I enjoyed the tasting menu and wine pairing. First and foremost - the service was incredible. As a solo diner you get one of two experiences - you're rushed out or you're attended to like a queen, my experience at The Musket Room was the latter. A few highlights - the anchovy butter - addictive. I should have smuggled the ramekin and the other half of the sourdough loaf back to the SoHo Grand. Second the dashi that was served with the mackerel and summer cherry tomatoes was exquisite. The wagyu and the sauce/ purée it was accompanied by was absolutely lush. Such a treat. The wines were beautifully matched and I enjoyed being walked through each pairing. The team was extremely knowledgeable and deliberate with their choices. 10/10 thank you! read more
Excellent experience! It was my first time NYC, and I decided to celebrate with a Michelin-starred restaurant. We had the tasting menu with wine pairing. The duck, oyster and sweetbreads were simply exceptional. The service was excellent and on par with what is expected at a starred restaurant. Everything was basically perfect. I can't comment too much on the ambiance, as we were sitting outside. But I can tell that the menu really had a cohesive structure and displayed all the creativeness and flavor combinations that you would expect at that level. read more

Came back this time for a more casual setting (sit at the bar for a la carte!). We tried the croquettes, which were deeelicious (but tiny for the price). The salmon and duck were also excellent. Our bartender was very friendly. read more

New Zealand cuisine tasting menu, One Michelin star Resturant. Not a particular dish stands out but overall solid quality. The service was caring, easygoing, and attentive. Ambiance was good, the space is rustic, but in a stunning way. And turns out, the kitchen is a female led kitchen team which I thought it's pretty cool :) read more

I came here on Tuesday for dinner to celebrate a friends birthday and it did not disappoint! We got the tasting menu and every dish was different and tasty in its own way. The sourdough bread with anchovy butter was heavenly and really enjoyed the cauliflower dish. The service was great where they did not come up to the table too often or too little and water was always poured! The decor is nice and gives it an elevated home-y feel. read more
Nicely prepared food and fine service, but the quality and tastes leave something to be desired. I did the vegan menu and my wife did the omnivore. Both good but not great for a one star Michelin. Also we left hungry. We decided to spent the additional 30 for wagu beef which was a mistake. Two small noisettes that were tough and were truly not worthy of the extra fee. A real shame. Additionally the place is very casual and quite noisy. I will however comment that the management when aware of our issue with the meat was very responsive, which was very respectable. read more

I came here per recommendation from a friend who highly recommended their wine pairing with the pre-fixe menu. We thought that the dinner prix fixe might be too much food for us along with the wine, so we opted to come for lunch (reservations are also much easier to get during this time) for their pre-fixe ($55). The wine pairing option is not on the menu, but is available for $45. Also, the dress code indeed can be casual - I came in shorts and that was just fine. Overall, I thought that the wine pairing was just fine, but it may have been because the waiter was trying to pair the wine to both options on each course of the menu. The food itself was very good, and it had been a long while when I fully appreciated both the creativeness and taste of a fancier restaurant. With the price, I thought it was very much worth it and I would come back. 1st course: Chicory salad was good, and I appreciated the muscat grapes the most. It didn't blow me away though, and I would recommend the gazpacho over this. I'm not a huge fan of gazpacho, but this was nutty and refreshing at the same time, and went very well with the almonds. 2nd course: Both dishes were excellent. The panisse is chickpea flour 'pastry' that is served in a rectangular style here - it comes molten hot, which I appreciated and the maitake mushrooms had a heavy taste profile here. The duck confit was tender even though it was shredded and the broth itself was enriched in duck flavoring as well. The wine pairing worked the best here to complement the richness of this dish. 3rd course: The panna cotta with the spring pea 'dippin dots' was probably the only dish that skewed a bit to the 'too fancy for its good', but it was still tasty. The malted ice cream float was much better though - unique but still nostalgic and comforting. It had more chocolate ganache than I expected - both desserts looked completely different from what we expected. read more
We had an incredible dinner here. We got one ominvore tasting and one vegan tasting, which I think was the right choice. We each also added a jamon iberico supplement, which was perfect. (Jamon with mussels and potatoes sounds weird but it really worked.) Every single bite was delicious, to the point where it's hard for me to even pick favorites. read more

Have they stopped serving lunch?
Yep, they're only open from 5PM-11PM for dinner.
How do you make a regular dinner reservation, I only see Tasting menu options on Resy?
My son and daughter in law are taking us and her parents here for Thanksgiving. Here's a dumb question. Is there any kind of dress code/recommendation?
There didn't appear to be any dress code. I came with my team straight after work and we were all wearing t shirts and jeans. Despite having a Michelin star, it still feels pretty casual.
Thinking of coming here for the tasting menu but am cautious about eating indoors during COVID. Is the indoor seating well-spaced out?
It was when I attended
