You'll likely have to plan in advance in order to get in, but it's worth it.  Great service, fantastic quality of dishes ... Among the best Japanese restaurants in the city.  The location "looks" peculiar from the street-level, but it just makes the eventual discovery that much more interesting, too :)

Had been looking forward to trying the old fashioned and (apparently) famous Tom's in Prospect Heights.  I'll never go back.  Here are my thoughts from today, sitting at the bar: 1) Line down the block 2) Flies 3) Zero service throughout 4) All the hype about the pancakes is completely unfounded. On top of that, pun,...

OK this place feeds me at least 3 times a week and I am not one to complain, where else are u going to get such generous portions for as little $6?? The guys are really friendly too!

Great pizza for a great price. Nice thin crust pizza w/ fresh mozzarella and tangy sauce. I was there during lunch time and It was quite busy, so I had to sit with strangers (community seating). The service is pretty good considering a full house of patrons. My only complaint would be the limited parking spaces around ...

Delicious and affordable two words most people  hunting down a restaurant want to hear. From the rice rolls to the soup dumplings everything's a treat.Tthere's something there for everyone not excluding those with less adventurous  eating habits or food allergies. I would highly recommend this restaurant to those loo...

Food is always pretty good, but you go there for the lively vibe. Sometime the fashionistas that work the front podium are a little full of themselves, but the waiters are for the most spot solid. I love the Calamari salad

One of the better pizza spots in the neighborhood. Nice staff. They need to turn up the heat in there. It's hard to enjoy their good slices when it's god damn freezing inside.

this place just isn't rustic enough. or twee enough. and the lights could be dimmer. and i can pronounce all the cocktails on the menu (lame). idk maybe i'm a purist.

I was in a mood for some Corned Beef Hash and Eggs for breaskfast so I called and ordered for my coworkers and myself from Los Papi's. What a disappiontment, they sent us old Hash (being a lover of Hash, I know the difference) and wheat toast that seemed to be stale (no bread delivery this morning?) We should have sent...

Everything was really good but I am still hungry, and will need to eat again, something I feel you shouldn't have to do after spending $200+ for dinner.  Come on Fat Boy serve an Italian size meal! Doubtful I will pay for his name again.

What a great place with great clean eating options. Falafel is the best in NY!! you can get it in a Pita or Platter, I particularly love Quinoa salad and the beets with mine, my wife loves the lightly grilled vegetables and the fresh salad. very tasty!! we also love the juices, they are phenomenal. we visit this place ...

This place wasn't good, it was amazing.   Sincere thanks to fellow yelpers for the great reviews leading us to choose our weekly dinner out this time at Upstate.   Its a small place with maybe 10-12 tables and a bar with seating area. Its generally a comfortable atmosphere with light background music and a great staf...

Great view and good food!  Fun place where you can enjoy the city skyline!  We loved the sangria and the surf and turf recommended by our server, Allesondra.  She was so pretty with a great smile and lots of energy.  We sat  outside and she was pretty busy but always kept that smile and gave us great service!  De...

Worst brunch service in quite a while.  My friend and I both ordered a simple eggs/toast/potatoes dish without meat.  The waiter and waitress (yes-two!) happily suggested to replace the meat with arugula.  YES!!!  Except both dishes arrived with meat somehow woven over the potatoes, through the toast, and under the...

Alta is surprisingly large, surprisingly comfortable, and offers a huge/dynamic small plate menu. Went here on a date and had a good time - we staggeringly ordered, like 10 plates and two bottles of wine over 2.5hrs - the environment is warm and relaxing, crowded but not jammed. Service was decent. I will return.

I love this place. Their poached eggs over haloumi and a roasted tomato are my go to daily snack, plus the price is right. I also love their green tea ice tea that is perfectly sweetened. Dean is always a great host and even when it gets a little hectic in there I don't mind because the vibe is still chill. Perfect spo...

Liked this restaurant's accoutrements, coziness, atmosphere in general, and can vouch for the chicken dishes and bruschette (w/ funghi) and bottle Chianti we had last night. Plus the tiramisu. Dug being under the elevated F train trestles. Good job.

I was curious about Vanessa's because the store posted all kinds of positive reviews on their window display. I went to the Eldridge st branch both yesterday and today at 11 am. I went there two days in a row to give a fair review.  This place is over hyped and there are plenty of better places in Manhattan. Unfortuna...

We recently had an event for 25 at the Market Table. It was a dinner in their private room downstairs. The room was lovely, compact, easy to converse between the two large tables, but we were not impressed with the meals. A noodle based appetizer was given high marks, the mixed salad was average. There were mixed revie...

Supper we found for a birthday dinner after reading amazing reviews.....we couldn't have been happier with our experience there!!!  Were seated at the bar----because of the crowd, but this is not a bad thing, we had the opportunity to watch the very talented chefs in action prepare our meals right in front of our eyes...

The Veggie buns are epic!!!! The ebi-miso ramen is Unreal.  The best way to deal with the unspeakable waits to get a seat is to put your name down, go to a movie or the 10 th street baths then come back for your table.

I was thrilled there was spots at the bar and it was happy hour. The ramen was simply delicious. The noodles were the perfect texture. I had the ramen special that day. The very long wait time keeps me from going back again.

A colleague, a member of our top brass and I decided to lunch at Antinori. We were seated by the owner who, after offering us a table, came back and reeled of a list of specials with panache, far too many for us to keep track of. All I remembered was something with clams and steaks. Anyway, after speaking about the cho...

The first pizzeria in the USA and quite possibly the best!  Its the same level as Grimaldi's in Brooklyn or Pepe's in New Haven.  Each one is slightly different but so good.

It is a small, cute place but I was not blown away. I went during the week for lunch so luckily we did not have to wait. The service was fine and the food was OK. I guess I should come back for brunch.

In terms of ambience, I don't know if I've ever been to a place as purely caucasion as Marlow & Sons. It's kind of New Englandy pale & tight. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I'm just saying this because it's just kind of fabricated & fascinating, like going to a facsimile of a waspy alien planet. I've had su...

Very good. Not cheap but the quality is a step up..and you pay for that. Gluten free options, and a simple menu. Being that i am a chef the simple menu means your food is thought out and way fresher! The coffee is sublime.

Appetizers to entrees and nothing food-wise disappointed.  The night started off with drinks and chicken tikka.  Chicken was perfection and 5 pieces went the distance with this table of four.  We moved on to entrees and portions were perfect - meaning, there were no leftovers, but we weren't looking for more either....

This is not Italian food... at all.  If it were, the ingredients would be fresh, the meats would be tender, and the pasta would be al dente.  Yelp, you did me wrong on this one!  Service is rude as well with the runner pulling attitude when I asked him to come back with the main after I had finished the appetizer.

This is one of the best BYOB places in NYC.  The seafood is really fresh, and very well prepared.  Also, the $5 corkage fee is a great deal.  This is fine dining at very reasonable prices.  Also, the owner is really friendly.  He tends their bar next door sometimes, and is fun to talk to.

Definitely meh. Pizza is pretty good - we ordered the Mad Martigan, which was interesting. The crust was too thin and runny to support the toppings though. Worst part was the dance party going on outside. Super loud.

Went here for my birthday.  Got the lobster hot pot because we were all too scared to try the live octopus one.  We also got the leek and clam pancake and some pork belly bbq.  Everything was wonderful.  The leek pancake was amazing.  I highly recommend it.  A great, fun experience for everyone.

The most fun you can have, standing up: chorizo taco from this truck. Don't waste your time on any of the other trucks around here, this is The One. Why don't you find a nice summer day, get a burrito from this truck, walk over to McCarren Park and eat it. It beats going to church and is twice as good for your soul.

Went to this place with my wife and two friends. Food options include Tapas. They have a good variety of options. A large selection of cheese. Some options were a bit pricey compared with others. It is on the upper price value in terms of tapas options, some were as high as $16. Portion was as expected, not very large ...

I was surprised how good the food was here considering the number of folks at the place. Showed up at 10pm and was told there was a 45 min wait; wait ended up being bout 15 minutes. Place was packed. Nonetheless, our service was awesome. I recommend you splurge on the $14 chop salad (appetizer), it's delicious.

Hands down my favorite Korean place -- and it's fast! It's affordable and couldn't get any better with the type of system they serve food. The only negative thing I have to say is the small space and there's certain times the buffet is not running. Other than that, I love this place!

I will eat here again when I am in NYC. Prices were reas...

Purists will not call this "real" Mexican food, nor even Tex-Mex.  If you can get over this bias, and taste it simply as something unique, these burritos are really really excellent.  It's particular good for vegans, because they have vegan-replacement options for nearly every item they put in (e.g., tofu sour cream,...
