Came here for my birthday dinner and the food is phenomenal! Every dish perfectly fuses Japanese and Italian flavors - my favorite was definitely the crab. The ambiance is cozy and romantic, with lots of couples around. Service was also attentive, and our server made sure to explain each dish to us. Price point is bit high, but reasonable for the food quality. Overall, a great place for a date night or celebratory dinner.

Their happy hour lunch deal is amazing. $12 pastas from 11am-4pm! The staff was friendly and fast. Me and my friends went on a Friday at round 230pm. Was not packed at all and didn’t need a reservation. The food was absolutely bomb, but I can’t say the same about the bread they served at the beginning. It was a bit stale, and the olive oil tasted a bit weird too but overall everything was good , I would definitely be coming back here ‼️

Hip, under-the-radar nook for creative sandwiches & salads, plus coffee & baked goods.
I’m always looking for a good breakfast burrito. I’ve walked by this place on the way to work to get up on a new stock and it looked really good. I go in and there’s a great tray of sandwich sandwiches sitting out and it seems like it should be a good spot. I feel like I was wrong. Breakfast burrito was tiny for $15. I mean I need to know how much I eat so I’m not totally mad about that but it seems expensive. In addition, it just didn’t taste that good. It really lacked a lot of grape flavor

While exploring this area, I stumbled upon a modest Dominican eatery. I ordered the pernil with rice and beans, accompanied by a side salad and a canned soda, totaling $20. The pernil was flavorful and tender, a definite highlight. The rice and beans were standard fare, and the salad, though fresh, lacked a compelling dressing. I would have appreciated a more robust dressing option. The establishment is small, with limited seating spilling onto the sidewalk, offering a casual dining experience

Customer service was amazing. Kay was one of the chefs he was amazing. The food was good. I just wanted to be a little bit spicier. I had the combo it came with the soup beans and two sushi Rolls

I had an amazing experience at Baya Bar thanks to Ismael and Paola! From the moment I walked in, they were both welcoming, attentive, and brought such great energy. They took the time to recommend options and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. The service was fast, friendly, and genuinely enjoyable. You can tell they really care about the customer experience. I’ll definitely be coming back—highly recommend stopping by and seeing them!

Food is good but girl packing the food has an attitude for no reason. I saw her put every order in a bag then when I my number was called she slides me my food puts the bag in the counter than looks at me l. Yes is to go so put in the bag I just did myself she must hate her job. Never going back bad attitude when no one did anything wrong to you is crazy.

Not a coffee lover, but this place won me over with their matcha! 🍵💚 Cozy vibes, friendly staff, and the matcha latte is smooth, creamy, and not too sweet—just the way I like it. Bonus points for the adorable latte art and comfy seating. A little gem even for non-coffee folks!

The lunchtime crowd looked intimidating at first, but the line moved much faster than expected. Not the cheapest salad you’ll find, but a practical option when you want something fresher than the usual fast food.

Great experience! The space felt cozy but spacious. Service was very attentive. Compared with other omakase places at similar price point, you get lots of course. All the appetizer/amuse dishes were delicious, especially the fired unagi and the Japanese amberjack sashimi. Super fresh fish and seafood and you get a great variety, and uni from Hokkaido was sweet and creamy. Ikumi also has two seaweed pieces which I don’t see commonly in other places, and both were very flavorful, and my guess is t

I stepped in here because I always walked by this place for a long time. I’m a sucker for good aesthetics and this place delivers. The wood finish. Red carpet. Mirror like stairway. I love that the menu is a magazine. The grilled cheese was great. The popcorn chicken was very very good as well. The drinks were tasty and I love that you get cigarette shaped gum when you get your check lol.

We stopped into Drip on Thanksgiving morning and it felt like such a gift. It is a beautiful, intentional coffee shop tucked inside a gorgeous building, with plenty of comfortable lobby seating where you can actually sit, exhale, and enjoy your cup instead of rushing out the door. Everything feels thoughtfully curated, from the layout to the clean, minimalist bar, to the option to enjoy your drink for here or take it to go as you wander SoHo. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners, a couple

Such a cute neighborhood Japanese cafe, all home made savory treats and delicious cookies and desserts. Also serving lunch , such as salad and bowls. Lovely and quiet vibes. Seems they turn into a bar on the evening too… will have a look next time 🍙🍙🍙🍘🍘🍘🍡🍡🍡🍥🍥🍥

A lot of people are mistakenly giving this place bad reviews thinking they’re reviewing the bar/restaurant thats underneath this place. This is a taco place. The tacos are small but cheap ($5.50/taco) and incredibly delicious. The tacos are about the same size and price as the popular Los Tacos No. 1, but these are WAY better tacos. More flavor, more seasoning, more interesting.

Great place! I got the gluten free/vegan cookie and an almond milk latte and both were delicious! As someone with celiac, I asked the baker and she said the gf cookies are prepared separately. Haven’t gotten sick!

The food at El Ta’Koy was pretty good overall. The waitress was kind but didn’t seem like there was much staff. Got a mocktail that was also tart and fresh. Definitely on the pricier side. 🌮 Kahlua Pork Tacos: The pork was soft and the taco overall had a lot of juice. Despite them looking small, it took quite a few bites to finish each taco which was pleasantly surprising. Just eat the tacos over the plate because they’ll each drip a lot of juice. 🍔 Crispy Chicken Sandwich: The sandwich was

-Chic Cafe- Great vibe, chilled spot inside the lobby of 11 Howard Hotel. Pasta dish is delicious. Grilled salmon is juicy just right. Tuna Tartare is a tad too salty for my taste. Craft cocktails offered by skilled bartenders. Servers are caring and attentive. Beautifully decorated, considered design.

What to order: No Mo Burger · Crispy Maitake Mushrooms · Baba GhanoushReally cool exterior and nice lobby, but this hotel is seriously in need of some major renovations. We booked one of their nicer 1 bed suite rooms, and it was one of the dirtiest hotels I've ever stayed at. Actually, it was by far the dirtiest hotel I've been to at this price point. Our friends in other rooms said the same thing. Multi-colored stains on the couches (we didn't dare sit on the couches), foot prints, dirty carpets, smears on the walls, etc. I don't like writing reviews like this bu

What to order: Sprinkle‑filled sundae · Ice‑a‑Bagel bagel‑and‑cream‑cheese ice cream · Banana soft‑serve coneIt's cute, great place for families and dates. Friendly staff that are more than happy to serve an unlimited amount of ice cream during your vosit. Warning, be careful with the little ones in the refrigerator room. The corner fridge doors are poorly placed which can cause a crush and pinch hazard when someone unexpectedly pushes their way thru from the other side.

What to order: Gambas al Ajillo · Patatas Bravas · Seared Octopus · Bacon‑Wrapped DatesI came to this Boqueria location for a memorial dinner in honor of my mother. The staff didn’t know the dinner was for a special occasion and they were still outstanding. They were so accommodating and stopped by the table often to check on us. The food and atmosphere were amazing, as they are at every Boqueria location. My family were all very impressed and will be back.

The hotel was beautiful, spotless, and perfectly located in SoHo — quiet yet within easy walking distance of so many great restaurants and foodie spots. The design and ambiance are truly breathtaking, but what stood out most was the service. All of the staff were great, but Alejandro (Alex) welcomed us the moment we stepped onto the property,

Today I saw The Amazing Sex Life of Rabbits by Michael Shaw Fisher at SoHo Playhouse, and it turned out to be much smarter and more touching than the provocative title might suggest. The play uses absurd humor and bold visual metaphors to explore very human themes: relationships, intimacy, vulnerability, and the ways we try to understand each other. It’s funny, a bit daring, and unexpectedly emotional at the same time. The actors perform with great energy and self-awareness, making even the stra

A truly charming bookstore with the warmest, most welcoming staff! I went there for the first time to donate books, and I was immediately surprised by how wonderful the space is. As soon as you walk in, it feels like a wonderland—beautiful, spacious, and nicely decorated, with high ceilings that make it feel open and magical. The stairs leading up to the next level make it feel even more special, inviting you to explore and discover more around every corner. The staff was incredibly friendly, ki
