Best dinner I have had in NYC. I made a reservation in advance and was promptly seated within 5-6min after checking in. We proceeded to order our drinks and food and enjoy the design of Carmines. It is not a quiet place and fairly loud with the amount of people inside. Food came out steaming hot and a large sharable portion. Drinks and food were absolutely delicious and waiter was very accommodating. Definitely visit!! They will see me again when I am back in the city. Paid $85 for our food and multiple drinks, A BARGAIN for a place of this stature.

We had a really good dinner at Carmine's. Our waitress Ashley was amazing. She was friendly and attentive and very helpful with everything. We got the baked clams for our appetizer, and they were cooked to perfection. For our main, we shared the mixed seafood plate with angel hair pasta in the red sauce it was cooked wonderfully. We also had the chocolate cannoli with pistachios. I would definitely come back on our next trip to New York.

This place came highly recommended. We made reservations for 6 pm. Crowds were waiting outside. Once we got in we were told they were running behind. We didn't get seated until 6:30. Unfortunately we got seated at a busy spot and all evening long I kept getting my seat bumped. Our waiter brought over a basket of bread plus two glasses of prosecco for our anniversary dinner. Our waiter was very helpful in advising us on what to order. He recommended chicken marsala over spaghetti, just one order to split. It turned out the plate could have fed four people. It was good. The portion size makes up for the expensive dish since it is huge. It was hard to hear but it was a lively atmosphere.

Fantastic experience. Food was delicious and massive portions. Each dish could feed a family of 5 it felt like. The vibe was awesome, really good jazz and old Christmas music and a really enjoyable atmosphere. A must visit in NYC.

carmines is a great place to dine for family or friend events. The portion was huge & the waiters are friendly, they kept checking up on us & our food. price was steep but worth the price if you split among your friends/relatives.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Seafood and Atmosphere! My friend and I visited the Red Lobster at Times Square while on a trip from Montreal, and it was amazing! The location is perfect, right in the heart of NYC, which gave us an exciting vibe as soon as we walked in. The seafood was fresh and delicious—especially the lobster and shrimp dishes! Our server was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The famous Cheddar Bay Biscuits were a highlight, and we kept asking for more. It was a fun and memorable experience, and we both felt it was the perfect spot for a seafood feast while exploring the city. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Times Square who wants great seafood and a lively atmosphere

This is a really big location with an elevator and stairs to the second floor dining area. Ate here while visiting NYC. Server was pretty goood and food was decent. Manager was very friendly and even gave our table a complimentary dessert. The restaurant was clean as well.

We experienced a great meal with tasty lobster with nice staff. No rush with a bill on the table directly after you swallowed your last bite of food. Food was great and the drinks were very nice. My hands were very sticky so I asked if I could use the shower to clean myself, staff have never heard this before and laughed out loud. I can recommend this restaurant if you visit New York!

Lobster 🦞 was supper delicious and perfectly cooked. Cocktails were quite better than before. The best part was boiled shrimps with garlic and biscuits. Service was fast and Pratik helped us a lot. We are %100 satisfied. Everything was great 😊 so it can't be a coincidence. They do their best to provide the best service👍🏼🔥

Decided to buy some of their famous Cheddar Bay Biscuits to go. The hostess/ greeter is very nice and works quickly. She had to call someone to take my order. It took about 10 minutes for the other person to come down to take the order. After taking the order, it was another 25 minutes for the order to come out. I only ordered biscuits (no seafood). There was only one chair (that wasn't in the first floor sitting area) while waiting. You have to walk around toward the back to pay for the order. They don't accept tap to pay for payment. This includes: Apple Pay / Google Pay. You MUST have the physical card or cash to pay. They did not warn me before. There is a sign by the register in thr back. For those that were dining in and were sent to the second floor, the elevator wasn't working so they had to go up maybe 1.5/2 flights of stairs.

We booked for Thanksgiving dinner, not wanting to struggle to find a table. It was really busy, but we were seated prior to our reservation time. They had a Thanksgiving menu along with the normal menu. It was a little expensive for what we got. The food was beautiful and traditional as we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Australia. we appreciated the meal. We shared the pumpkin pie, and it was good. Haven't tried this before. The pastry was perfect, and the filling smooth and overly sweet

Awesome place; but they are so used To have many visitors that they don’t bother to please the clients. I had a bad experience with the manager REX; I made my reservation to enjoy the time at the restaurant; we had a good meal but When I was starting to drink my last beer; The manager called us to leave the table As they had another reservation; come on; we were finishing and I was not the entire night at the table; not more than 1.5hours (maybe less; I’m being conservative here). Note: the bill was more than $250 dollars. In resume; they have so many tourists at the restaurant that they don’t care to treat You well. The place is amazing; but I will never return due to the bad service; I don’t wanna be in a place they don’t care for the client.

We had an amazing time at Hard Rock Cafe! We ordered off the “Summer Special” menu, which was a great deal—an appetizer, main dish, and dessert for just $45. The food was fantastic! We started with the nachos, which were loaded with toppings and perfect for sharing. For the main course, the 1/2 rack of ribs was tender, flavorful, and fell right off the bone. And to top it all off, the NY cheesecake was creamy and delicious—a must-try for dessert lovers. The staff was friendly, the service was prompt, and the rock-themed ambiance made it a fun dining experience. Highly recommend stopping by for the Summer Special deal!

The Hard Rock Cafe in Time Square is much larger than you would expect from the outside and you can typically get seated relatively quickly. We came here for a dinner while visiting New York as we try to go to each one in a city we are visiting. The food was good overall, and the menu has a good amount of choices ranging from burgers, bbq items and salads. We started with an onion ring tower and the they were really good, the batter is the crispy bread crumb type, not a beer batter. We also shared a plate of nachos which are very good and is a large serving. I got the steak Cobb salad which was ok, I would have like a bit more tastier salad dressing but overall it was good. My son got the Diablo burger which he said was ok but not the greatest and did not have enough spiciness as the description made it out to be. The service was ok, not the fastest but met expectations. The restaurant is super loud with music (which is expected) but don't expect to have a great conversation without speaking loudly to others. Not necessarily a place I would run to go back to but also wouldn't turn it down either.

Pretty disappointing overall. Firstly the service, which was really poor. Although the gentleman was a nice guy we waited 30 mins for our drinks, then we ordered our starters 45 mins in expecting to order our entrées separately (as he didn’t ask if we were having any), finally our starters arrived and we asked if we should order our entrees, at which point he said, “I thought you weren’t having anything else” 🤦🏻‍♂️. Another wait ensued. Then they got our order wrong so one person had to wait while we all had our food. The food was generally OK, but nothing special. I appreciate it is a tourist trap and I wasn’t expecting phenomenal food, but the burgers were unseasoned, bland and small and there are so many better places to have a good burger in the city (which is disappointing as this place promotes its “legendary burgers”). The burgers and fries were slung on the plates and looked unappetizing, the nachos cold with cheese congealing, but the wings were nice. Obviously the rock memorabilia is awesome and really interesting, I just wish I’d taken a sneaky walk around the place rather than wasted 2 hours and $$$!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dave & Buster's, and I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful our experience was, largely thanks to the exceptional service provided by the manager, Travis. From the moment we walked in, Travis greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. He was not only welcoming but also incredibly attentive, taking the time to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. His enthusiasm for providing excellent customer service truly stood out, and it made our visit all the more enjoyable. Travis went above and beyond to recommend some of the best games to try in the arcade and even suggested delicious menu items that we couldn’t resist. His knowledge of the offerings was impressive, and his passion for creating a fun and enjoyable atmosphere was contagious.

This Dave n Busters actually IDs people with kids 1st one I've been to that did that. Otherwise it was a great experience. They have a big dinning area as well as a private party room. They have game machines that actually work. It's located in the heart of times square you'll love it!!! My family came down from Colorado and we had a blast.

Very fun environment. Had the pleasure to meet with both Travis 1 & 2. The original Travis was wonderful and speedy with our food and drinks. Travis 2 made his rounds meeting all the tables and had a great conversation with us.

John and Jhon are both so attentive and provided the best customer service. Food is always a hit and the drinks were hitting me even more. Didn’t feel like we were at Times Square at all. Felt like I was introduced to Dave and Buster personally

The food was actually very delicious! We got the wings and they were fresh and tasty! Our server was very attentive and friendly. The only thing was the food did take a while to come out but not a big deal. We also played some games but some of the games were out of service or the credits needed to play were just a bit high. We went through $20 in like ten mins. But other than that it was a good experience!

Wanted a nice fancy meal before a Broadway show and found lambs club. The service was fantastic, as well as the drinks. The food was tasty but not amazing and for the price a bit disappointing. The steak was good but the sauce lacked, and the potato was quite small, being smaller than the onion! The desert was quite in my taste with a berry jelly.
Esther Nicol - 5 months ago

The service was incredible and the waiters were so nice. It is a really cool chill area with a fire. The buns are delicious but I don't recommend the steak tartare. The halibut and duck are so good and the desert is amazing

Arrived early for breakfast- no one in the place yet. But took 35 minutes to take our order. The place was soon packed. No coffee refills, no salt/pepper on the table, forgot our bread order, took forever to get it. Great atmosphere. Knowledge about dietary restrictions. Food was very good. Need to work on service.

This is a very nice upscale restaurant on Times Square. I had a girls dinner with my friend. We had a really nice warm welcome and pleasant experience. The staff made sure we are comfortable and attentive. They came to greet us by our name to ensure our services are taken care. Indeed, knowledgeable and would recommend us options that cater to our taste buds. Every staff were highly professional. We will definitely come back again and let people know that the food are amazing as well!

This place was superior, had brunch with a friend here recently and it blew my sticks off. The decor was splendid and modern with a huge fireplace making it feel as if I was home in my mansion eating in the living room space. This also may have been the best burger I’ve ever had and well worth the price. Drinks come just as good as they look and strong. The staff was so professional I forgot I was eating in the heart of NYC. Totally recommend this place for This wanting not only a fine dining experience but good quality, elegance and supreme taste!

Stopped in on a Saturday night after a comedy show and sat at the bar upstairs. First time here and it was pretty busy. I just wanted to get a quick bite to eat before I headed back to Jersey and I’m glad I stopped at Connolly’s. I was craving chicken wings so I ordered the mild buffalo wings and an Angry Orchard. The wings were so damn good!! The service was great as well and the Irish accent of my bartender was the icing on the cake! Can’t wait to go back!
Jessica Espinosa - a month ago

The service was impeccable. The coziness of the restaurant was great. When walking in, it was hard to find where to sit. Each floor told us to go to another floor which was frustrating. Our waiter ended up being great. The food was mediocre. The chicken pot pie was okay. The cesear salad was alright. The spinach dip was not good at all unfortunately.

Awesome little Irish pub. We visited a couple times due to close proximity to our hotel. Drinks on the 4th floor roof was kind of fun just to be outside and look down the street. We ate here as well and enjoyed the food. Great menu. Fun place.

It's the place to go when visiting New york, 121 West 45th Street right beside Times Square. Premises are clean and tidy, food is wonderful and staff are great and if you are lucky enough to run into Bernie (the host with the most) he will regale you with stories from past, present and even future and not a crystal ball in sight, He is kind with his time and generous to a fault, The world needs more Bernie's . An amazing experience. 5 stars all around See you all soon ....

First official day in New York and we got to go inside this restaurant. Personally, I never watched the movie but the atmosphere was just like a 19s seaside restaurant! Tye crab rolls were the best for me but the shrimp was really flavourful, and the sauce was excellent too. The waiters even pointed out on the best dishes that hey recommended us to try, everyone should give this place a shot
CHOLE Tang - a month ago

Came here on. A Sunday evening. It was not crowded and was seated quickly. The appetizers range from 12-17 dollars with shrimp entree priced around 24-30$$. Te space is nice with windows all around so you can see Times Square with all the lights the can chowder is ok and the fried shrimp pretty good. The food took a while to come.

Kid friendly fun x fun. Happy employees making happy customers. This kitchen crafts & perfects the preparation of fresh seafood and much more. The ambiance is modesty as an art form. I recommend Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. to all.

Delightfully surprised to find this cute restaurant and gift shop. Everything was relevant to the film and so well put together. The atmosphere was perfect, with people from all over, marvelling and reminiscing about the film. One area was even decorated like mama's house! Posters, quotes and merch at every turn - a really fun experience with good food and located within easy reach of Time Square. They did only offer one vegetarian main dish and a couple of sides - but the one dish they served was delicious! Gorgeous New York cheesecake for dessert 👌 They had a limited offer of a free etched glass with every beer or cocktail, which would be a lovely keepsake.
Janet Slade - 4 months ago

Pretty overhyped in my opinion - we came with great expectations after a recommendation from a friend, but thought the food was relatively flat. Food: Garlic prawns were nice, although the prawn shells were sticky and hard to peel, which could be due to freshness. Service: Service was good throughout, fast and decent service. Atmosphere: Very old school, interesting decor like a NY-style diner. Overall, I think there are much better options in NY, but your mileage may vary!

What a wonderful healthy oasis in the theater district. Because of various health issues I am limited to what I can eat and this place had excellent whole grain choices for me. There are dishes for people with all kinds of allergies or intolerances, freshly cooked and prepared. The guys working there are super friendly and helpful. All in all a two thumbs up if you're looking for fresh, healthy dishes, warm, cold or even ice cream. Lots of snacks and drinks as well. Seating is limited but there is usually a place to find. HIGHLY recommended!!!

I took a quick stop at this place for a healthy breakfast to start the day. I had their Tofu and Avocado Wrap and it was so good. I love the inside of their place as well. Highly recommend because they offer Vegan and Gluten Free Options.

What an absolute oasis in Times square! I was looking for healthy and vegan and this place was absolutely perfect. I was hungry and rushing to the theatre so no pics but I had a rice bowl with an Indian vegan curry and two sides more tofu and cucumber salad. They offered brussel sprouts for no cost that day. Also had a made to order fresh juice. It was my first time there and the lady taking my order was patient and helped me understand how to order. Downside is no bathroom 😔 but that’s kinda normal in this area.

Green Symphony saved the day with deliciously healthy food while visiting Manhattan for the weekend. The food was excellently prepared, giving me gourmet taste on a budget. Customer Service was above and beyond that I don't find everyday in establishments. What a breath of fresh air!

Very impressed by this restaurant! The restaurant is huge and a very sociable place. I love the layout because the dining area is huge and you feel like you’re on the streets but you are really not. Server was on point and food arrived fast and hot. I had the sweet and sticky wings which were HUGE. If you try these, one order is enough for two. The wings were soaked in a wonderful sweet mustard sauce. I also had the Mac and cheese which was excellent. It was piping hot and made with real cheese. Would highly recommend this restaurant!

I recently visited Dallas BBQ in Times Square with friends and family, and we had an amazing time! The atmosphere was vibrant and perfect for a group outing. The food was delicious, especially the combo wings and sides, which were packed with flavor. The drinks were a standout as well, particularly the frozen strawberry daiquiris and the D’Usse Sidecar Special. The service was excellent—our server, Asif, was attentive and ensured everything went smoothly. It was a great spot to enjoy good food, refreshing drinks, and great company. I’ll definitely be coming back!

First time visitor and I couldn’t wait to share my experience! Our waiter was amazing, showed us excellent hospitality, very friendly and on it! Did have to ask for anything, he knew what we needed without asking.What’s interesting is he lived in Delaware for 2years. That’s were we came from to visit. He truly knows how to serve the people, thank you 😊! Now let’s get to the food ,omg! Banging! Wings five stars for sure 👍 drinks 🍷 so good! 😊 I couldn’t eat anything else after eating the wings , they’re re huge! Great place to celebrate a birthday and that’s what we did!

I have nothing negative to say about Dallas BBQ Times Square. A huge positive, I must say, came with a party of 8 and was seated almost immediately. Food was, ehh.. Out of the 7 plates of food, we ordered 5 plates was sent back. The food just wasn't up to par.

This was my first time visiting New York, and it was for a special occasion – a birthday trip for my mom! My sister and I brought her here, and on 11/11, we had dinner at this restaurant. From the moment we arrived, everything went smoothly. The lady at the desk directed us upstairs via the escalator, and as soon as we got up, we were seated right away. Our waiter came to the table within 10 minutes to take our orders and was super friendly. The food arrived in less than 15 minutes – quick and efficient! While we were waiting, a staff member surprised us by coming around to take our picture. He took three, and it was such a nice touch! My sister ended up purchasing all three photos because they turned out so cute. The staff member was so kind and personable; it really made the experience special. As for the food, I had the BBQ brisket sliders and macaroni, which were both delicious. The BBQ had great flavor, and the macaroni was just right. The waiter checked in on us about 5 minutes after we started eating to make sure everything was good, and he was so sweet throughout. Payment was smooth and easy, and overall, I had a great time. The people were lovely, the service was fast, and the food was great. If you’re in New York, I highly recommend checking this spot out!

A few days ago we were having a good time at the Times Square Bowling , where we enjoyed games and a variety of drinks and snacks. I loved the atmosphere and the good attention of the staff. Junior was our patron and we received very good attention and recommendations from him when it came to enjoying the food and drinks, always very attentive and courteous, I recommend that you look for him to make your stay the best. I am sure we will return here.
