Came for a little catchup lunch with my longtime friend and everything was delicious. We also talked for hours and weren’t rushed despite how popular this place is. I got the chestnut ravioli, french onion soup and my friend got the lamb sandwich all were tasty. Cream puffs were okay.

A staple restaurant for a ny trip, especially for their brunch! The bread basket is absolutely worth it, much better than buying individual pastries. It same with a good selection of sweeter pastries like sticky bun and breads, also came with generic jams but not really needed when the pastries are so good by themselves. I also tried the Eggs Norwegian, the eggs Benedict with salmon. The highlight is their hollandaise sauce which was perfect consistency and flavor. The potato’s were crispy and flavorful, everything you want for a side. Service was exceptional, with all the staff being very attentive and lovely. My water glass and coffee were never empty the entire time there. Also would suggest trying to go on a weekday for breakfast, weekends get extremely packed in. Overall, a beautiful restaurant with great food and service, completely worth going to at least once!

As good today as it was twenty five years ago. We visited on a Saturday for breakfast. Very warm reception from the hosts at the door. The Croque Madame -excellent Herb omelette - excellent Pancakes -excellent Applewood bacon excellent. It cost 100$ for three of us. It was worth it. Fast and efficient service. Very busy.

What a lovely treat! Service is amazing here. We tried three desserts and we would not be able to choose the best one. All of us had steak frites and they were delicious.

This was the best restaurant from our whole trip to NYC. We had made reservations before even landing in New York. It did not disappoint. From the food to the service everything was awesome. Everyone loved what they ordered. Worth every penny. Definitely want to come back.

November 2, 2024. Fully aware that several reviews called this a tourist trap, we still went here to just try it out as we were nearby. There was a 30 minute wait time. The staff were courteous and helpful. The food is normal, but very expensive ($55 dollars for 3 members and we only ordered 1 pizza and 1 pasta). The pizza and pasta were ordinary, nothing special about this place, not worthy of another visit.

Lombardi’s in New York is the pizza pilgrimage you never knew you needed. This iconic spot is said to be America’s first pizzeria, and after one bite, you get why it’s been around forever. The pizzas are absolute perfection – thin, crispy crust with a touch of char, topped with fresh tomato sauce, mozzarella that melts in your mouth, and basil that feels like it was just picked. The classic margherita is chef’s kiss, but honestly, every pie on the menu is a winner. The vibe at Lombardi’s is pure old-school New York. The walls are filled with history, and the atmosphere is warm and bustling, like a true NYC institution. It does get busy, so plan for a bit of a wait, especially on weekends. But once that hot, delicious pizza hits the table, you’ll know it was worth every minute. Now, heads up – the pizza is fantastic, but it’s definitely on the pricey side for what it is. You’re paying for both the quality and the history, so just keep that in mind. If you’re visiting NYC or even if you live here, this is one of those places you have to check off your food bucket list. It’s New York pizza at its finest – just with a bit of a premium!

They claimed to be the best pizza restaurant in NYC and it’s true! Pizza was wonderful love every ingredient in their pizza. Aperol spritz was a perfect drink for this meal. Will come back again for sure. FYI: they take only cash and I recommend to withdraw cash in advance since the ATM machine in the restaurant takes extra charge.

Might be the best pizza in all of New York! Italian food at its best. If this is your first time go for the pizza and the meatballs.
M-P Amendolare - in the last week

The service wasn't the best. One of the waiters was rude. I tried to ask him for the pepper flakes, he interrupted me, ignored me, and never came back to my table. The fact that it's a CASH ONLY business is a little inconvenient. They should put a sign outside. A little pricey, the pizza was OK, but nothing memorable.

stumbled upon La Esquina Brasserie entirely by accident, walking along Lafayette Street in New York, but what a find it turned out to be! A tour guide had mentioned it, but discovering it on my own made it feel like a hidden gem. The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful. You head down the steps, and it’s like stepping into a secret speakeasy. The lighting was just right, creating a warm and inviting vibe. The barmen were fantastic—friendly, professional, and really added to the experience. The food was another highlight. Their tacos and other dishes were delicious, and the drinks paired perfectly. What surprised me most was how reasonably priced everything was; it felt like a luxury experience without breaking the bank. The crowd there was equally wonderful—friendly, relaxed, and lovely to chat with. It added to the charm of the place. I’d recommend La Esquina Brasserie to anyone looking for a unique and memorable spot in New York. It’s more than a meal—it’s an experience you won’t forget.

Really cool place - if you didn’t know about it, you’d probably walk straight past it. The front looks like a very small ‘hole in the wall’ eatery but once you’re in, they direct you downstairs, through the kitchen, into the restaurant. Nice bar area, nice ambiance. A bit dark inside and loud music, tables quite close together, but good food and great service. Definitely worth a visit.

I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the underground speakeasy restaurant La Esquina. Reservation is required to access this one via a guarded door leading to the underground scene with cramped but very lively bar, restaurant and dj scene! Food is generally very good but nothing that particularly stands out as deserving five stars.
Eric D - 4 months ago

You have to try this place! you walk up to a very unassuming deli-like restaurant and note that you have a reservation for La Esquina - the place was empty - no tables, nothing. The host radios to somebody else that hes sending a party of 2 down. Then a hidden door in the wall opens and we are led to the basement of this building which is likely 100 years old - Very cool! - food was great and service was great too! Neat place!

My husband and I both really enjoyed our food. The tacos were great and so was literally everything else that we ordered. I also loved my spicy cocktail, cant recall the exact name. The waiter was very sassy, but I wouldn’t say he was rude. I found the vibe to be great as I really enjoy people watching. We paid around 300 usd which isn’t little for a street place like this but I think it was worth it 🍹

Worth the wait and the slightly cramped space. Everything we ordered here was surprisingly great. The pictures alone look great - but they taste even better than they appear. But the highlight for me was the Tie-Dye Pie. It doesn't make sense how good it is. It is super light and crisp, yet the vodka sauce gives it a richness. It is so well balanced - probably my favorite thin crust pie anywhere.

I asked my cousin to take me to a yummy New York Pizza. This place was amazing! The house made sauce was so flavorful, and the thin crust had the perfect crunch. We came in hungry so we ordered the Heirloom Tomato Caprese as an appetizer and that was a great. We also ordered a pasta dish plus the amazing Pizza! Everything was so delicious that we left full and no leftovers! We ate it all :-) The atmosphere is amazing, with a rustic vibe that’s both cozy and comfortable. The service was equally impressive, very attentive and friendly staff, always making sure we were enjoying our meal and keeping our water glasses full. If you’re looking for a spot for an amazing NYC Pizza with fantastic food and a welcoming ambiance, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
Abby Rivera - 3 weeks ago

The pizza was very thin like almost crispy tortilla dough! the sauce was tasted like homemade not too strong which was good! We also loved the salad and mozzarella sticks. I would not say that this is the best pizza in nyc but def worth to go here!

Wow what can I say about this place that nobody else has! The service was incredible, from spot on recommendations, attentive (and meaningful) check ins, to even just being able to get me a great spot to eat (slight glitch on my part with reservation for two but I was only one). Those who complain about the pizza being like a cracker… that’s because it is, it’s super thin and crispy. I actually think the style is named such and that you can find recipes online. It is amazing! I nearly ate the entire pie myself, on top of the most delicious pasta I’ve ever had. Short rib… and wow, if it’s on the specials list - get it. Cheers and happy eating.

What is the best Italian spots in all of New York City! The service is always great, the food is absolutely always amazing. The drink menu has something to offer for everyone. The mixed drinks were great also. Do yourself a favor and make reservations…

The location is good, and the menu looks decent, so we decided to step in for lunch. Unfortunately, all three different meals we ordered were really bland! It is surprising, as pasta in general is not a difficult dish to make, at least to make it average level. The pricing is pricey, but that comes with the location, I guess. Not sure what the problem is here - perhaps too much is pre-prepared? Nevertheless, it is definitely not a place I'd return to. Absolutely no complaints about the staff, who is friendly and attentive.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Visited Osteria Moroni in SoHo, drawn by its fusion Italian menu. The food we ordered was decent - it hit the 'okay' mark but didn't quite dazzle the taste buds. However, the high price tag, especially for the wine and drinks, felt a bit steep. Considering the location, some premium is expected, but just a few blocks away, there are spots offering more authentic and value-packed Italian experiences. A fair choice if you're nearby, but there's more to explore in the area for Italian cuisine enthusiasts. 🍝🍷📍

The food was very good. We had a board of meats and cheeses cut on the spot. The paste was fresh and yummy and the same for the meatballs. The service was not so friendly or nice. And the vibe is ok but don't go in for that.
Yuval K - 10 months ago

Our dinner soooo good I’m so happy we went for my birthday. Our server Brahim was attentive and very friendly. We had a meat and cheese board as an appetizer which was 10/10. The parmesan Reggiano and goat milk blue cheese were so good and the meat we chose was very fresh. I had the cappelletti pasta entree which was over the top amazing, never had anything like it, and it came out super hot! My fiancé had the veal, amazing as well and a great portion. I can’t wait to go back here.

This place was OK. I will do my research first before coming to this restaurant. The name is a little deceiving as is not a fully Cuban restaurant. They don’t have many of the typical Cuban food cuisine, however, we were surprised to find the food was good not the most delicious but it wasn’t bad. It had a good flavor I will say that this restaurant is more of a Mexican cuisine than Cuban. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the corn on the cob was on point. We will definitely come back when we need a quick bite, but not when we need a full meal. The service was OK, but they seem to be overwhelmed by the amount of customers that the restaurant can handle we had to ask for napkins like three times also getting the attention of the servers was a difficult as they’re moving around a lot. The bathrooms are very tiny, the lighting is very dim, There is lots of posters and graffiti, but it goes with the neighborhood , I did not feel an AC running inside the restaurant so I am not sure if they run the AC during very hot days .Overall, not a bad place but again make sure you do you your research and check the menu before going in.
Freddy Rivera - 4 months ago

Wanted to come here for years but never did and finally my dad mentioned it while in town and we decided to go. The food was so so amazing, we both got the cubano with elote on the side. The price was part of my initial hesitation but as soon as I started eating I realized it was pretty worth it at $20 a person which isn’t so outrageous. The staff was super nice and friendly and the whole vibe was very fun. Definitely want to come back to try the breakfast at some point and will absolutely be back for the elote.
Star Fitzmaurice - 3 weeks ago

My partner and I ordered a steak burrito, corn, rice & beans, and quesadillas. We instantly noticed a lack of flavor in the quesadillas and my burrito. You'll need the sauces they gave to add some taste. Corn was the best. Soon after, the food did not sit well with my GF. The service was good, but we will not return.
D Gilbert - 3 months ago

Mid to bad food, albeit I got a salad and corn. The elote was HARD and although the seasoning was good, but not good enough to make up for how poorly the corn was cooked. The salad was over salted, oily, limp, and underwhelming— and I LOVE salt. The steak was a good portion for $5 but brought basically no flavor. The whole thing basically didn’t taste like anything but salt. The only saving grace of this place was the great service and location. I hope this was just an off night since everyone else seems to like it, but I won’t be back unless it’s for a drink.
Mia Bahr - 4 months ago

I have been coming to this place for YEARS just to try their World-Famous Grilled Mexican Corn. Omgsh!!! When I tell you this is the best corn or elote I've ever had I really mean it. I'm drooling now just thinking about it. If you've never eaten here it's a must! The vibes and music are IT! Fun, bumping Spanish music all night and hospitable servers! Iris took care of us and got us ready for the night ahead!!! Can't wait to sink my teeth into that corn again!!! 😋

Great place, we were walking down the street and got caught with the view of the low windows into the restaurant, and we decided to book a table. We had good time, excellent food, they have also vegetarian option, we took the ravioli. Recommend on sea food if you're there, and we also tried one of the sushi rolls which was good as well. Would recommend if you are in the SoHo area and love seafood to try it out.

This photo was taken at our last visit, in July. My husband and daughter had dined here for lunch on a couple of occasions and this was our first time for dinner, all four of us. It’s nestled in one of my favorite parts of town, and there’s something about the busy-ness of the place when it’s packed. Everyone there seemed to enjoy themselves, great food, good drinks, great service! We celebrated our daughter’s birthday this day. She didn’t want us to tell anyone so we kept it mum, but after several visits we can say it’s a great place to eat. Love the atmosphere, too.
Stephanie Scarborough - 2 weeks ago

One of my favorites when in town! Fun place with a weekend feeling. Cocktails are delicious and the food is such a treat! It gets very loud so not for the sensitive ears!
Helene Lennartsson - 2 weeks ago

The restaurant’s interior is super cool, with round, boat-shaped windows that make you feel like you’re on a yacht. I had the pan-seared black bass with sweet potatoes, while my husband enjoyed the steamed red snapper with Bok choy. For our appetizer, we shared the Hamachi crudo. Although the portions were on the smaller side, each dish was perfectly prepared and delicious. The service was exceptional—attentive and thoughtful throughout our meal. We’re already looking forward to returning to try more of the menu!

Yelp named this spot the #1 cheesecake in America, so I had to check it out! The staff was incredibly friendly, and they offer a great selection of flavors. However, there’s no seating or restrooms available, and while the prices are reasonable, the tart sizes are really small. If you prefer thick, dense cheesecake, you might prefer Junior's. But if you're into light, fluffy cheesecakes, this place will be perfect for you.
Kelly Lee - 2 months ago

While I am not typically a cheesecake enthusiast, their offerings diverge significantly from the traditional experience. The texture is exceptionally smooth and buttery, with a remarkably creamy consistency. My personal favorites are the pineapple-topped cheesecake and the chocolate pie flavor. The staff consistently demonstrates exceptional kindness, a wealth of knowledge, and a genuine willingness to address any inquiries. However, a notable observation is a consistent upward trend in pricing with each visit. This, of course, is likely an unavoidable consequence of the current inflationary climate.
TJW - a week ago

Got the strawberry cheesecake and a plain cheesecake. The filling was good however I like my cheesecake crust to be more of a crumble. The crust was more light and or didn’t have much of a crust. However cheesecake was great for a quick bite.
Dev C - in the last week

The little cheesecakes here are absolutely delicious! Much better than those "famous" places. They're cute and perfect size, especially if you want to try multiple flavors. Many flavors to choose from. All delicious. The downside is this place is so tiny. It's just a walk in and walk out type of place. No room in there whatsoever. No bathroom. A tiny little bar if you want to sit or stand to eat and it's got an open spot.
Angela Hopp - a month ago

I came here after hearing some great reviews about their cheesecake, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The cheesecake was incredibly soft and had a rich, distinctive cheesy flavor that made it stand out. I’m definitely looking forward to trying their other cheesecake varieties next time. The guy behind the counter was also super friendly, which made the overall experience even more pleasant. Overall, I left feeling satisfied and excited to come back for more.

We ordered omelets and Dog’s breakfast. Everything was great and delicious. The portions were gigantic, really filling. Decorations and atmosphere were amazing. Also definitely recommend the hot chocolate.

Grey Dog is a fantastic spot! I loved the cozy decoration and the welcoming atmosphere. We came during the last 30 minutes of brunch, and the food was still excellent. The pancake and fried chicken were crispy and delicious, and the breakfast bowl with French toast is a must-try. Plus, they have a happy hour starting at 4 PM, making it an even better place to hang out. I’ll definitely be back!

Dont forget to reserve a table if plan to come on a weekend. Packed! But food is great, service is fast and attentive. Pancake and french toast is moist , yummy. Our latte is strong they have good selection of coffee.
VG - 5 months ago

Grey dog is where you go when you want something that tastes familiar but elevated. The grilled cheese dippers and tomato soup (with a side of bacon)are perfect on a chilly/rainy day. You can’t go wrong with the classic grey dog breakfast. The pancakes with banana are fluffy and the perfect amount of sweet. Their bacon is thick cut and crunchy which I love. It can get a bit busy but the longest i’ve ever had to wait for 2 was about 10 minutes. Overall, really good breakfast that just feels like a hug… cant go wrong 🥰
Veronica U - 2 months ago

The food is just alright. I ordered the grey dog breakfast with French toast and I liked the orange syrup that came with them, eggs were done great, but I can tell the potatoes were from a frozen bag. I did get an iced latte here and it tasted great. Out server was also very polite, but when the restaurant got busy for breakfast it was hard to wave them down for coffee refills for the table.

Small spot with a few tables in the back and a bar to sit at up front. We ordered the rigatoni Carbone and chicken parm, both were great portion sizes (we both had leftovers) we also ordered the “famous” garlic bread. Flavor was great, chicken wasn’t too thin or over breaded. Rigatoni was tasty without being too spicy. The garlic bread was our least favorite, $8 for 1 sesame hoagie cut in half and we honestly couldn’t taste any garlic.
iLove2Travel - a month ago

I’m a fan and I love Carbones Spicy Rig, so when I saw this in Nolita I couldn’t wait to go in. It was crowded and that’s always a good sign. This location has a really relaxed cool vibe. Sat at the bar and had a fabulous lunch. Spicy Rigatoni was excellent and the salad was delicious it was crisp, fresh, with bites of fig.

Seriously good - so much so that we came back for round 2 after eating here on our first trip to NYC in 2022. Rigatoni with vodka sauce is a delicious vegetarian option, and the chicken parmigiano platter was tasty too. Great service, even though they were quite busy. Luckily we got in before the lunch rush! Small location (would be hard for anyone with mobility needs).
Laura - a month ago

Came here for the rigatoni carbone, it was pretty good. We also enjoyed the fresh mozz with prosciutto. The arugula salad had fig in it, I loved it but my friend was not a big fan. The spaghetti and meatball was ok. We came here for dinner on a Saturday. The line was quite long, as expected. The guy worked at the door was good, attentive, and communicated well about the wait time. It was a small and busy place, but our waitress was patient and welcoming.
