What to order: Gnocchi · Mike's Signature Short Ribs · Merguez Dumplings · Crescent SteakFood was fantastic! The oyster steak came out perfectly medium rare, juicy, flavorful, that rich sauce was delicious. Chocolate fondue for dessert was appealing warm chocolate with fresh strawberries, bananas, brownie chunks… crispy zucchini and yam fritters were good too. Cocktails were strong and tasty (loved the Maple Old Fashioned). Thanks Sandra super friendly and fully on top of the situation!.

What to order: Pistachio gelato (often praised as outstanding) · Hazelnut gelato · Mango sorbet (noted as refreshing) · Hot chocolate (rich, pudding‑like)I tried their classic amorino flower, the flavor was okay, that’s not a normal dulce de leche, for people that know about the flavor it doesn’t taste as one from South America, like Argentinian, Uruguayan or Paraguayan ice cream. But I enjoyed the experience, the 2 stars are because their cone is empty inside, who wants to have the ice cream and then eat a dry cone with some rest of melted ice cream that not even touch 1/3 of the cone. The idea of a flower cone is nice, the flavor good (dulce de

What to order: Organic Soup of the Day · Warm Belgian Waffle with Fresh Berries · Egg Cheddar Avo Breakfast Sandwich · Croque Madame SandwichHad a chocolate chip scone and hot vanilla latte. They warmed up the scone and it was great, nothing special but just what I was craving. However, I was happily surprised with the vanilla latte, it was SO good. I usually only like cold drinks and not hot but this was amazing! Satisfied with my experience. Only complaint is that there is not enough seating inside for the amount of people there, especially when it’s cold out. Great stuff!

She checked in on us regularly, made sure we had everything we needed, and provided excellent service with a smile. Her attentiveness and positive attitude truly enhanced our dining experience. I would definitely recommend Mito Asian Fusion and

DEFINITELY COMING BACK AND BRINING FRIENDS~~~~ Good vibes. Great food. Delicious drinks. Amazing staff. Beautiful interior. Shout out to Tanya who was serving our table. The sweetest, most professional/attentive and lovely waitress I have ever met. This place is lucky to have her. Ordered My Mama's Oxtail 😋 100 out to 10!!! My girlfriend got the Caribbean Warm Bowl - so good that she ordered a second and it was not because the portion was small at all. Recommend recommend and RECOMMEDN.

Traditional Georgian cuisine like khachapuri in a simply decorated space with a back garden area.
What to order: Ajaruli Khachapuri · Khinkali (Lamb & Tarragon) · Shkmeruli · Georgian wine (e.g., Saperavi or cocktails)we were in New York City looking to try something new and online reviews came up with Old Tbilisi Garden so we decided to check it out. We made a reservation for 8p and arrived a couple of minutes early but the restaurant was relatively empty so it was quick to get a table. We ordered the eggplant appetizer, the Georgian salad, the mushroom dumplings, and the cheese and spinach baked good. The eggplant and salad both came outburst and both were good in terms of size and flavor. The salad had

What to order: Prosciutto Pizza · Bolognese Lasagna · Montrealer Breakfast SandwichMy partner and I went here for a Saturday morning brunch as a way to start the day. The restaurant has a cozy and intimate decor with pretty great and attentive service. It can be a bit loud and cramped due to the layout but you do sit pretty close to other patrons. My partner and myself ordered the Rise and Shine breakfast platter, though I got mine with egg whites instead of whole eggs. The food tasted pretty clean but forgettable in flavor with pretty substantially small portion sizes. I had

What to order: Chicken bowl · Beef & Lamb Doner Bowl · Create Your Own BowlHad an amazing experience at Meatup in Dumbo. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced — exactly what I was craving. I ordered the chicken bowl and it was packed with so many delicious components: crisp lettuce, pickled onions and cabbage, sumac onions, feta cheese, shredded carrots, creamy labne, smoky babaganoush, and rich hummus. Everything worked so well together without feeling heavy, and the chicken was cooked just right. The flavors were vibrant but still comforting, and th

What to order: Marinated Black Angus Beef Galbi · Prime Dry Aged Rib Eye · Agwi Jjim · Cold Buckwheat Noodles (Naengmyun)We came here for my birthday dinner, and the portions were much bigger than we expected. We originally wanted to add a beef intestine hot pot, but our server looked shocked and told us that it would be way too much food for two people. I said we could just take the leftovers home, but she explained that the amount would be so large that we probably would not even be able to pack everything. She suggested ordering less first and adding more later if we were still hungry—and she was absolutely rig

Revival of an NYC standby serving vibrant Italian plates, with a private dining option.
What to order: Pollo al Forno (roast chicken with salsa verde) · Bucatini alla Carbonara · Toasted (pan‑fried) Gnocchi pillows · Insalata di Cavolo (kale salad)We were in New York celebrating a birthday and wedding anniversary, and after following Jonathan Waxman on TV for years and admiring his cooking, we decided it was the perfect occasion to finally visit his restaurant. On arrival, the restaurant presents itself beautifully, a clean, lively, and contemporary space with a fresh energy. The front-of-house team were exceptional throughout: warm, attentive, and genuinely on the ball without ever feeling intrusive. The cocktail list also set a strong

What to order: Lomo Saltado · Pollo a la Brasa (rotisserie chicken) with fried rice · House Special Fried Rice · Nutcracker cocktailI’ve been hearing about this place for a while and somehow never went. I finally checked it out with my boyfriend, and honestly—it was the best idea. The food was amazing. I ordered the lomo saltado with fried plantains, which is one of their most popular dishes, and it did not disappoint. I’m usually skeptical when it comes to ordering steak, but this one was actually really good. I was pleasantly surprised. I included my boyfriend’s dinner as well and he highly enjoyed it.
