View of the main dining room from the bar
Ali M.

Opened in October 2014 to fanfare about its California-inspired approach to produce and generalized Italian-cum-Mediterranean cuisine, thanks to chef Justin Smillie's inventiveness, Upland just seems run-of-the-mill today. The reception staff were friendly and efficient, whisking away my wool-overcoat in seconds. My spirits lifted as a seat at the end of the bar was located for me. Upland's tall street windows, double-height ceilings, milk-glass sconces, green-enameled pendants, pale panelling, banquettes, and the primacy of its bar echo the modernity of Charlie Bird in SoHo and the unfussiness of Via Carota in the West Village -- but lacks the energy of either of them. Over-use of wine bottles and jars of lemons in brine as decorative elements just feels dated now, rather than charming. Like the space, my little gem salad first-course and beef tartare second-course each lacked verve. Despite ribbons of ricotta salata and walnut vinaigrette the former lacked flavor, while the latter was overpowered by a dusting of chilies that I was not expecting. My glass of Mendocino Chardonnay served in a shapely Spiegalelau glass was delicious, as was the macchiato. Service at the bar where I ate could have been better; I had to ask for plates to be cleared. Perhaps it was because activity at the bar centered around cocktails and beer. The room was far from empty, and the appeal is obvious. Still, next time in the neighborhood, I'd likely choose Borgo.

Prefixed menu for large group

Food, service, & vibe were top notch. The team at Upland were friendly, knowledgeable, and detailed. They went above and beyond when to ensure anyone with food restrictions had options. The food and wine (Cade Sauvignon Blanc) were delicious and regret not taking pictures of everything. Attached is a picture of the menu for our group. I look forward to returning and trying more dishes.

Elevated restaurant with reliably good food and service. Plenty of natural light in their space, which I'm always a sucker for. If you're looking for a little pizazz in your restaurant rotation, Upland is the place on an unassuming stretch of 26th. The menu options vary depending on the season, but is California inspired, which as a native, makes me nostalgic every time I come here. Their burger is worth the hype (and sticker tag) but only if you're in the mood. Love their brunch options, which if you go early, makes for a relaxing and pleasurable experience. My toddler son, husband and I dined here on a recent visit, and it was the most relaxing brunch I've had in years. Quiet, calm and kudos to our server who had the infinite patience of an angel with our toddler (who was, thankfully, on his best behavior). Oh, limone pizza - get it. It sounds so wrong, but probably was the star of the show for me. Perfect balance of citrus zest and cheese - and the arugula adds a kick. YUM.

Upland has a wide variety of food options to choose from whether you are a meat lover or vegetarian. The ambience was nice and the service was excellent. We came with friends on our last night visiting NYC and also celebrated our friend's 25th Wedding Anniversary with some awesome dessert. There were more items I forgot to take photos of like the skirt steak, Cesar salad, Upland "Nutter Butter" and sorbet.

What a delightful experience! Came here for dinner on a Tuesday evening and it was absolutely amazing! The wait staff here were extremely attentive and ensured we had a great dining experience! Special shout out to Olive for making the experience that much better. The food was delicious, and we were able to try a nice range of different options. Ambience was really upscale and pleasant! Drinks were well made with a good variety of cocktails! Highly recommend! Thank you Olive and the upland team for an amazing experience.

Limoncello cake
Farah K.

Food - butter and bread was yummy; branzino was delicious and they were able to split in two which we appreciated. Limincello cake was good Service - attentive and it was the perfect pace. However, I did notice our waiter offering the table next to us recommendations but didn't do the same for us Ambiance - it was a Thursday evening so it was a bit noisy. Decor was simple but felt cozy

Lobster Cavatelli, Beef Tartare, eggs
Koreen D.

Pretty resto for brunch. Managed to snag bar seats for walk in. Beef tartare was on the sour side and not the best I've had but portion size was decent for tartare. Lobster cavatelli was pretty good, perfectly cooked pasta and luscious sauce The eggs were also pretty good. Warm and comforting as one may expect. Overall, pretty good. Nice ambience and service was good.

Roasted chicken -- DELICIOUS
Sol G.

Food was delicious as well as dessert. Service was excellent. Restaurant is really pretty. Cocktails were good-- not very strong though. Ambiance is upscale. Recommend the roasted chicken and the brussel sprouts and veggies with ricotta. The nutter butter dessert was really good. Great for a fancy date or birthday dinner.

I was visiting my daughter for the weekend in NY and she suggested we came here for lunch. It's pretty cozy. The service was good as well, we didn't have to wait too long for our food. Now for the food! We ordered the Caesar salad and the steak tartare for appetizers, they were both pretty good. However, the Caesar salad had sardines in it? I didn't mind it too much since the dressing made up for the fishy taste... But I've never had a Caesar salad with sardines, not bad but I would prefer to go without it. My daughter loves a good Caesar salad but refused to eat it because of the sardines in it. The steak tartare was delicious and very fresh! We ordered the steak and eggs and the cacio e Pepe, both entrees were pretty decent. My daughter enjoyed her steak and eggs, I loved my cacio e Pepe. For desert she got the chocolate fudge cake, it was pretty good if you love chocolate. I had the limoncello olive cake and absolutely loved it, it was fresh and sweet without being too tart. I'd come back here for sure!

I am so happy I was able to try this restaurant. I went to @upland_nyc and all the food and desserts were amazing. The margarita pizza was unbelievably delicious. The little gem salad as a starter was light and a great addition to the night. I also got the pappardelle and the rigatoni pasta which were cooked to perfection with the freshest ingredients and a tasty bolognese. To add on, I got the roasted beef short rib and it was to die for! To finish off the night, I got the peanut butter oatmeal cookie, the chocolate layer mousse cake, and the burnt cheesecake which were each remarkable in so many different ways! -@bellieeats

Came here for dinner and was impressed by how delicious the dishes were! We got five dishes to share amongst four people - Crispy Artichokes, Crispy Duck Wings, Vodka Pizza, Eggplant w Labne, and Short Rib for Two. The complimentary bread and butter was so soft and fluffy, but we were so glad to see our dishes come out within 5 minutes of being served the bread. I really enjoyed the sauces that were served with the artichokes and duck wings and had wished something like that were offered alongside the short rib - with only the celery salad, the short rib was a bit lacking. But my favorite of the night had to be the pizza - unlike a typical flat, thin crust pizza, this slice had a lot to offer: cornmeal yet airy and soft texture, loaded toppings with a deep cheese flavor. We also appreciated how attentive the servers were with refilling our waters. I'd like to come again - ideal for large groups and intimate dates.

Interior
Jane K.

3 stars because: 1) We had a 1:30p resy but was still asked to wait for our table beyond our desired time despite there being plenty of empty tables. We counted over 6 empty tables. 2) We ordered the Upland burger and wasn't asked how we preferred our burger. To our dismay, the burgers were overcooked and served well done. I prefer medium rare. 3) I would have rated this place much lower but Upland offers decent food (the fries were yum), cute ambiance and our server was super hospitable.

Kathy X.

Dined here for brunch with a friend. The interior was elegant and beautiful, complete with an open kitchen layout. I ordered the Breakfast Sandwich, on brioche bread. This included prosciutto, Comte cheese, and fried egg. I asked for potatoes instead of the salad it typically comes with, which was a good choice. The prosciutto was juicy, wonderfully well seasoned. The cheese was delightfully melty, full of strong flavor, while the egg was cooked nicely. All the ingredients worked well together, making for mouthwatering bites. The potatoes were perfectly roasted, tender, and slightly crispy. Service was pretty good. Our waiter was nice and accommodating. I would be open to returning to try the Upland Donuts, Lobster Cavatelli, or Black Angus Skirt Steak and Eggs.

As we had our cocktails we discussed going somewhere else as the vibe was flat. But my husband convinced me to stay as it's already 8:30.

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.

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.

Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.

It featured a crispy, sugar-glazed exterior and a soft, chewy interior, topped with truffle cheese and served with a truffle butter dip; the pairing was superb, and it tasted great both on its own and with the dip. For the main course, I ordered the miso-glazed black cod. The flavor was flawless, and while the portion was small (which was acceptable), the pool of broth accompanying it was completely unnecessary; it was inedibly salty, so what was the point of serving it? After finishing the fish, I was left with a plate full of broth, rendering the plate unusable. Plus, it was overpriced; for this dish, you're better off going to Strip House Strip House remains the undisputed king of this dish in New York. A friend ordered the chicken parmesan. It was just average. Another friend ordered the short rib stroganoff. The flavor was decent, but it was far too rich and heavy. As someone whose palate is split 50/50 between Western and Chinese cuisine, I could manage only five bites at most. If you have a palate that prefers 100% Chinese food, proceed with caution on this dish. Friends ordered sides of mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. These are dishes originally meant for low-income Americans to fill up on cheaply; there's no limit to how good they can be, but also no floor to how bad they can get. Both were on par with the average quality found in upscale restaurants. Honestly, these are two dishes I would never order myself. To sum up: the atmosphere was great. It's also hard to get a reservation; the place was packed when we had lunch at 2 PM. Aside from that monkey bread, I didn't feel like anything else justified the price or offered something you couldn't find elsewhere. I don't quite get the hype. Perhaps I just didn't order the right dishes; maybe next time I'll try the burger and the steak.

I didn't have a reservation, but was seated immediately. Win! I really should've asked questions instead of going rogue. My intention was to do the lunch prix fixe menu. The menu on the table was a la carte. This did however work out better for me as I had limited time since I was catching a broadway show. Started with the olives then followed with the hot dogs and closed with the gem lettuce. They did come at different times. This gave me the perfect time to nibble slowly. The olives paired perfectly with the salad. The hot dogs were my favorite. The whole meal was perfectly balanced for me. Just have to mention how amazing the service was. No table had anything waiting to be taken away because there was always someone walking around. At one point, one of the guys clocked I had just finished drinking my water and within seconds he was at my table refilling my glass. I mean c'mon. Will took great care of me.

We were already inside MOMA and entered via the inside entrance with a guard and a huge door. Since we arrived at 5pm when they opened we were led to a seated waiting area and provided cold water (a 100F day) and a smaller drink menu. Within a few minutes the main dining room was ready for us and we were led to a three quarter moon seat with a table facing the MOMA outdoor sculpture garden. This room was glorious with its high ceiling and cobalt blue paint and an impressive massive floral arrangements. There were plenty of museum visitors still outside wandering about in the sculpture garden. Each and every staff were wonderful in their friendly welcoming stance and conversations. Having perused their voluminous wine selection online ahead of time (an excellent thing to do ahead of time to avoid last minute decisions) we placed our wine order with the sommelier. Then there was the choice between the two menus, one obviously more expansive in offerings and the price. Since NYC was experiencing our extreme heatwave we opted for the smaller menu, which was totally sufficient and very filling. Most of the time, restaurant tasting menus have words and phrases that "sound" so inviting but wind up being a huge disappointment. However, words here really don't do justice as a description. The menu seemed simple and basic enough: "radish, shiso* crispy ham and cheese; hiramasa and garden peas; sea bass, crab and squash blossom; halibut, tomatoes, sweet corn broth or chicken and red wine braised celeriac; berries and cacao -- Impressions Menu -- 'a glimpse, capturing a moment' $175 (discovery 115 * reserve 295)". Prior to ordering we were informed that both of us had to order the same menu but that we had the option to sub and add on from the expansive menu--which we did with the eggs on eggs on eggs dish, as well as my choice of the lamb. Their signature dish--Eggs on eggs on eggs: a must have to add on this special course with caviar ($50/order). The dish is small, precious and very rich and was positively impressionable. That's the dish I go away with thinking about the restaurant. It came with a stick of toasted brioche to sop up the runny yolk and the caviar (which was neither fishy or salty). I would note the dish was served with caviar spoon. Staff knew enough that after we started eating this they brought an extra set of two more buttered toast sticks. Paired with our all Pinot champagne it was a magical combo. This is the kind of patron mind reading that differentiated a Michelin star restaurant. As the executive chef described the dish: "At the bottom of the bowl is a fried egg sauce, and is broken with a dill oil; second egg is a poached egg yolk (poached in a saline solution just so they are warmed through...we want the yolk to spill through the sauce...). We finish this dish with pickled shallots and more fresh dill for acidity and freshness, and drop a huge spoonful of caviar on top." The amuse was a great way to start especially with the pairing of our champagne. In lieu of the halibut in the Impressions menu I added the lamb from the other menu. Although it was only one piece in the rack of lamb it was terrific with the crunchy maitake mushroom and tasty sauce. The sommelier was excellent and professional without being pretentious -- as well as every single staff that greeted us and served us along the way. THIS Is what one should expect from a two star Michelin restaurant. I tasted the halibut from my wife and it seemed to be slightly under seasoned, though it had a decent sear. Service was perfection. They did not disappoint and I will be back!

We did not order food this time, but everything coming out of the kitchen looked and smelled great. Overall, I would definitely recommend this spot for happy hour drinks in the MoMA/Midtown West area.
