['Make sure you have the Spicy Scallop roll ...']


However , if you want great food at a great price and do n't mind the decor , you ca n't beat this place .


['During the course of the past 3 months , the chef and staff changed and it was not for the better .']


The food can get pricey but the prixe fixe tasting menu is the greatest food for a good price and they cater the food to any food allergies or food you do n't like .

You can get a completely delish martini in a glass ( that 's about 2 1/2 drinks ) for $ 8.50 ( I recommend the Vanilla Shanty , mmmm ! ) in a great homey setting with great music .


['Judging from previous posts this used to be a good place , but not any longer .']


['Even though its good seafood , the prices are too high .']


['Worth visiting the 1st Ave spot because it is the original store .']


['( Always ask the bartender for the SEASONAL beer ! ! !']

['The large selection of bruschettas , paninis , tramezzinis keep the palate from stagnating .']

With so many good restaurants on the UWS , I do n't need overpriced food , absurdly arrogant wait-staff who do n't recognize they work at a glorified diner , clumsy service , and management that does n't care .

The wait here is long for dim sum , but if you do n't like sharing tables or if the typical raucous dim sum atmosphere is not your gig , this is a sleek ( for Chinatown ) alternative .


['This place blew me away ... by far my new favorite restaurant on the uppereast side .']

Over the years the host , Vittorio , and his crew , have always treated me as family -- although with all the business this not-so-little gem does , it amazing he 's even able to remember a consistent but not-so-frequent visitor .


['The quantity is also very good , you will come out satisfied .']


['Service was quick .']


['A coworker and I tried Pacifico after work a few Fridays and loved it .']


['The waitress was not attentive at all .']


If you do n't mind pre-sliced low quality fish , unfriendly staff and a sushi chef that looks like he is miserable then this is your place .


['Furthermore , the rice had no seasoning , so the sushi was bland and disgusting .']


['The first time I went , and was completely taken by the live jazz band and atmosphere , I ordered the Lobster Cobb Salad .']


['I had their eggs benedict for brunch , which were the worst in my entire life , I tried removing the hollondaise sauce completely that was how failed it was .']


['Kind of a small place but I guess if they are not too busy might be able to fit a group or kids .']


['My Girlfriend and I stumbled onto this hopping place the other night and had a great time !']


The hot dogs are top notch , and they 're Slamwich is amazing !


['skip dessert .']


['The service was quick and friendly .']


['Chow fun was dry ; pork shu mai was more than usually greasy and had to share a table with loud and rude family .']


Yes , they use fancy ingredients , but even fancy ingredients do n't make for good pizza unless someone knows how to get the crust right .


['Authentic Pakistani food .']


['The food was actually aweful .']


['This is by far my favorite place in the neighborhood .']


['This restaurant was way overhyped .']


['Best restaurant in Brooklyn']


['Service was slow , but the people were friendly .']


['However , I think Jeckll and Hydes t is one of those places that is fun to do once .']


['The fish was really , really fresh .']


['I had a grat time at Jekyll and Hyde !']


['the drinks are amazing and half off till 8pm .']


['The last two times I ordered from here my food was soo spicy that I could barely eat it , and the spice took away from the flavor of the dish .']


['Haru on Park S is simply disgusting .']


those rolls were big , but not good and sashimi was n't fresh .

['Pacifico is a great place to casually hang out .']


['I attended a holiday dinner at the restaurant , and the food was majorly disappointing .']


['You should pass on the calamari .']


If you 've ever been along the river in Weehawken you have an idea of the top of view the chart house has to offer .


['The only thing more wonderful than the food ( which is exceptional ) is the service .']


short and sweet – seating is great : it 's romantic , cozy and private .


['She was very helpful in suggesting us drinks and helped us in ordering a lot of good dishes since we knew nothing about Indian food .']


['The rolls are creative and I have yet to find another sushi place that serves up more inventive yet delicious japanese food .']


I have it a 4 instead of 5 because of the price ( just chicken tikka masala - no bread of rice - is $ 25 ) , which I would expect at a upscale Indian restaurant but this place doesn 't have an upscale feel .


['The pizza is overpriced and soggy .']


['The food looked very appetizing and delicious since it came on a variety of fancy plates .']


['Hands down the best pizza on the planet .']


['never swaying , never a bad meal , never bad service ...']


['The martinis are amazing and very fairly priced .']


['Despite the confusing mirrors this will likely be my go-to for modern Japanese food for the foreseeable future .']


However , if you want great food at a great price and do n't mind the decor , you ca n't beat this place .


['Avoid this place !']


['Quite frankly , this is some of the worst sushi I have ever tried .']


['I would definitely recommend SEA if you like thai cuisine !']


['I have eaten at Saul , many times , the food is always consistently , outrageously good .']


['Big Wong gets big Ups for a fine establishment .']


['The lamb was tender so full of flavor , the dessert was divine ! !']

['Service was also very good .']


['Try the lobster teriyaki and the rose special roll .']


['They have it all -- great price , food , and service .']


['The blond wood decor is very soothing , the premium sake is excellent and the service is great .']


['This place is great .']


Watch the talented belly dancers as you enjoy delicious baba ganoush that 's more lemony than smoky .


Service was devine , oysters where a sensual as they come , and the price ca n't be beat ! ! !


['I go and eat out at many different restaurants and this is one place you have go and try .']


Friendly staff that actually lets you enjoy your meal and the company you 're with .


['Zero ambiance to boot .']


['The sake menu should not be overlooked !']


['Very `` normal Indian food `` , but done really well .']


There is a downside if you 're ordering in -- the delivery guys have MAJOR attitude .


['but the service was a bit slow .']


['Best of all is the warm vibe , the owner is super friendly and service is fast .']


['The main entree was also very good .']


Also , I personally was n't a fan of the portobello and asparagus mole .


['I really like both the scallops and the mahi mahi ( on saffron risotto yum ! ) .']


Try their chef 's specials -- they are to die for .


['It was the first place we ate on our first trip to New York , and it will be the last place we stop as we head out of town on our next trip to New York .']


['Personal pans are the perfect size for those hungry nights .']


['Very immature bartender , didnt know how to make specific drinks , service was so slowwwww , the food was not fresh or warm , waitresses were busy flirting with men at the bar and werent very attentive to all the customers .']


['The pastas are incredible , the risottos ( particularly the sepia ) are fantastic and the braised rabbit is amazing .']

['Well , this place is so Ghetto its not even funny .']


['We ended our great experience by having Gulab Jamun ( dessert ) recommended by the waiter .']


['Good food : my favorite is the seafood spaghetti .']


['I will go back to Suan soon !']


['Great bagels made the old-fashioned way .']


['Had no flavor and the staff is rude and not attentive .']


['The design of the space is good .']


I have tried to make reservations , but both times , the hostess did n't have my name .


When you 're sitting in their main dining room ( which has a spectacular , hand-painted high ceiling ) you 'd never know there was a world outside .


['honestly the worst sushi my husband and i had in our entire lives .']


['Big Wong is a great place to eat and fill your stomach .']

['After the 4th time i asked again and the waiter than said after our dinner .']


['im not necessarily fanatical about this place , but it was a fun time for low pirces .']


['The sandwiches are dry , tasteless and way overpriced .']


['Go to Volare for 1st class service and terrific food .']


The dosas are skimpy , unattractive and drip with grease , and personally I 'd drink popcorn topping before I 'd eat another one of these .


['whoever the jazz duo was , they were on POINT .']


We did n't want a bottle of bubbly on a weekday so we each got little bottles of Korbett it was just enough .


['Favorite Sushi in NYC']


['Both times I was extremely dissappointed by the service , which was boarderline rude .']


['Mermaid Inn is an overall good restaurant with really good seafood .']


['By the time we left our wallets were empy and so were our stomachs AND we missed the show we were supposed to see following our dinner , which would have been acceptable if we got to enjoy the experience of good food and belly dancers !']


['Have recommended the place to friends , always gets good response .']


['The combination of super-fresh ingredients in the dishes are unusual but really delicious .']


['I am reluctant to write because I would not want my jem of a pizza place to become overcrowded .']


['I recieved prompt service with a smile .']

['I highly recommend the fish tacos , everything else was ok .']


['It is definitely a good spot for snacks and chat .']


['I book a gorgeous white organza tent which included a four course prix fix menu which we enjoyed a lot .']


I would recommend Roxy 's for that , but not for their food .


The mussles were the fishiest things I 've ever tasted , the seabass was bland , the goat cheese salad was missing the goat cheese , the penne w/ chicken had bones in it ... It was disgusting .


['Make sure you try this place as often as you can .']


['I am not a vegetarian but , almost all the dishes were great .']


['Great food and the prices are very reasonable .']


['The wine list is extensive and impressive .']


['Wine list is extensive without being over-priced .']

['The pizza was great .']


['This is the best sushi in new york city - hands down .']

['Beef noodle soup is good as well .']


['cirspy crust margherita pizza']


['Great food , amazing service , this place is a class act .']


All the various Greek and Cypriot dishes are excellent , but the gyro is the reason to come -- if you do n't eat one your trip was wasted .


['Fresh ingredients and everything is made to order .']


['the pad se ew chicken was delicious , however the pad thai was far too oily .']


['The Prix Fixe menu is worth every penny and you get more than enough ( both in quantity AND quality ) .']

['Nice atmosphere , the service was very pleasant and the desert was good .']


['Nice Family owned traditional restaurant .']


['An awesome organic dog , and a conscious eco friendly establishment .']


['I highly recommend this beautiful place .']


['Not much of a selection of bottled beer either , we went with Brahma .']


however , it 's the service that leaves a bad taste in my mouth .


['This place has the best Chinese style BBQ ribs in the city .']


['This place survives on reputation alone .']


['The decor is night tho ... but they REALLY need to clean that vent in the ceiling ... its quite un-appetizing , and kills your effort to make this place look sleek and modern .']


['The waiter was attentive , the food was delicious and the views of the city were great .']


['Ambience is delightful , service impeccable .']


['The only thing that strikes you is the decor ? ( not very pleasant ) .']


['Delicate spices , onions , eggs and a kick-ass roti .']


['The food was delicious ( I had a halibut special , my husband had steak ) , and the service was top-notch .']


The wait staff is very freindly , they make it feel like you 're eating in a freindly little european town .


I have been to Rao 's probably 15 times the past 3 years and it keeps getting better .


['Bukhara Grill , the tagline says it all . . `` INDIAN SPICE RAVE ``']


['The atmosphere was pretty nice but had a bit lacking , which it tries to make up for with a crazy scheme of mirrors .']


['It was served with skin , over a bed of extremely undercooked spinach and mashed potatoes .']


['This place has totally weird decor , stairs going up with mirrored walls - I am surprised how no one yet broke their head or fall off the stairs - mirrored walls make you dizzy and delusional ...']


['The food is amazing , rich pastas and fresh doughy pizza .']


['limited menu , no-so-fresh ingredients , thinly-sliced fish , fall-apart rice .']


['I like the somosas , chai , and the chole , but the dhosas and dhal were kinda dissapointing .']


['Food is great .']


['The hot dogs are good , yes , but the reason to get over here is the fantastic pork croquette sandwich , perfect on its supermarket squishy bun .']


['Great Indian Food !']


['Always good drinks and service is pretty good ;']


The food is amazing ... especially if you get the Chef 's tasting menu and your favourite bottle ( or two ! ) of wine from an extensive selection of wines .


['Someone else recommended the dessert - we also left that .']


['Indoor was very cozy and cute .']


['Salads are a delicious way to begin the meal .']

['We ordered the special , grilled branzino , that was so infused with bone , it was difficult to eat .']


['The veal and the mushrooms were cooked perfectly .']


['My friend devoured her chicken and mashed potatos .']

['We could have made a meal of the yummy dumplings from the dumpling menu .']


['The setting is casual and romantic .']


['The sushi seemed pretty fresh and was adequately proportioned .']


['Great neighborhood joint .']


Food was amazing - I love Indian food and eat it quite regularly , but I can say this is one of the best I 've had .


Though it 's been crowded most times I 've gone here , Bark always delivers on their food .


It was n't as if this restaurant had any major bragging points before hand , but now it 's simply repulsive .


['Look , the appetizers were really good .']


['Spreads and toppings are great - though a bit pricey .']


I 'm still mad that i had to pay for lousy food .


['Right off the L in Brooklyn this is a nice cozy place with good pizza .']


['A beautifully designed dreamy Egyptian restaurant that gets sceney at night .']


['Cheese plate is a varied delight and great bargain at $ 10 .']


['I was there for brunch recently , and we were tag teamed by a waitress and a waiter .']


As BFC does n't take reservations you almost always have to wait by the bar - and be abused by the front of house staff until you are seated , which can be over an hour later !


['Great spot , whether looking for a couple of drinks or quiet dinner .']


['The drinks are great , especially when made by Raymond .']


The dishes offered were unique , very tasty and fresh from the lamb sausages , sardines with biscuits , large whole shrimp to the amazing pistachio ice cream ( the best and freshest I 've ever had ) .


['The food is great and they have a good selection of wines at reasonable prices .']


['Thank You Emilio .']


['The waitress was very patient with us and the food is phenomenal !']

['I expected quite a bit more from such an expensive menu .']


['the salads are delicious , both refreshing and very spicy .']


['The place was quiet and delightful .']


['Still , any quibbles about the bill were off-set by the pour-your-own measures of liquers which were courtesey of the house ...']


['Indo Chinese food , pretty good ...']


['even the wine by the glass was good .']


['The place has a nice fit-out , some attractive furnishings and , from what I could tell , a reasonable wine list ( I was given the food menu when I asked for the carte des vins )']


['This place has got to be the best japanese restaurant in the new york area .']


Rao is a good restaurant , but it 's nothing special .


['The only fallback on this restaurant is the prices .']


['The portions are small but being that the food was so good makes up for that .']


['The only thing that my friend left out is that when we sat down at the bar the bartender disappeared .']


['The food is so cheap and the waiters are nice .']


['With the exception of our lemon salad that had so much pepper on it that our eyes started watering , the food here was decent , not great .']


['The service was extremely fast and attentive ( thanks to the service button on your table ) but I barely understood 1 word when the waiter took our order .']


['My quesadilla tasted like it had been made by a three-year old with no sense of proportion or flavor .']


The boths are not as small as some of the reviews make them out to look they 're perfect for 2 people .


One would think we 'd get an apology or complimentary drinks - instead , we got a snobby waiter would n't even take our order for 15 minutes and gave us lip when we asked him to do so .


I 've never had bad service and the fish is fresh and delicious .


There 's another girl who I ca n't describe , she is about 5 ' 6 `` with brown hair , who eavesdrops on your conversation and chimes in - except she only hears the last part of what you said , so her uninvited opinions are often out of context and nothing to do with what you 're *really * talking about .


Fabulous decor - makes you feel like you 're in a trendy Manhattan restaurant , very very good food , cheaply-priced , generally friendly staff , and if you 're a Manhattanite , or spend most of your time in Manhattan , Rice Avenue will make you feel at home ... ..very Soho /Village /Upper West Side minus the expensive prices and pretentious clientele ... ..all on Roosevelt Avenue !


['Great food , great decor , great service .']


['THIS STAFF SHOULD BE FIRED .']


['When I lived upstate for a while I would buy freeze the bagels and they would still be better than any else .']


['Excellent dumplings served amid clean , chic decor .']


Their bagels are fine , but they are a little overcooked , and not really a 'special ' bagel experience .


['Ravioli was good ... but I have to say that I found everything a bit overpriced .']


['I think the pizza is so overrated and was under cooked .']


['Went on a 3 day oyster binge , with Fish bringing up the closing , and I am so glad this was the place it O trip ended , because it was so great !']


The place is a bit hidden away , but once you get there , it 's all worth it .


['This is the perfect spot for meeting friends , having lunch , dinner , pre-theatre or after-theatre drinks !']


['I came across Village Underground by accident , now I go there all the time .']


['Rude service , medicore food ... there are tons of restaurants in NY ... stay away from this one']


['I took one bite from the $ 24 salmon , and I have never , in the 17 years I have been going to restaurants tasted salmon as fishy , as dry , and as bland as the one in Flatbush Farms .']


['Not impressed with the food .']


['The pasta penne was pretty extra buttery , creamy which means a big task to diggest . . tasty at first but i would say that i was full with a slice of pizza and 7 to count , penne ... got a little moody afterwards cause was stuffed ... lol']


['great food']

['We thought that this place is using too much of MSG cooking in the foods .']


['As a retired hipster , I can say with some degree of certainty that for the last year Lucky Strike has been the best laid-back late night in the city .']


The service varys from day to day- sometimes they 're very nice , and sometimes not .


['This place has the the correct ambience and an excellent staff to make you feel like a guest and a friend at the same time .']


['The food was bland oily .']


['Simply some good tasting Chinese food at incredible prices ...']

['Great service , great food .']


['Warm and friendly in the winter and terrific outdoor seating in the warmer months .']


['Service friendly and attentive .']


To be completely fair , the only redeeming factor was the food , which was above average , but could n't make up for all the other deficiencies of Teodora .


['The food arrived 20 minutes after I called , cold and soggy .']


['The staff was the friendliest that have seen in New York .']


['The fish was not fresh and the rice tasted old and stale .']

['Excellent food for great prices']


['The food tasted very good .']


['The wait staff is very courteous and accomodating .']


['This place is so much fun .']


With so many good restaurants on the UWS , I do n't need overpriced food , absurdly arrogant wait-staff who do n't recognize they work at a glorified diner , clumsy service , and management that does n't care .


['So , I switch with my boyfriend again to see if maybe I could stomach the meat and spinach again , but the spinach was so undercooked that I just could not bite through it .']


['Not the typical NYC gimmick theme restaurant .']


['the hot dogs were juicy and tender inside and had plenty of crunch and snap on the outside .']


['After really enjoying ourselves at the bar we sat down at a table and had dinner .']


Also , the sandwiches ( nearing $ 7 ) did n't come with anything like chips or a side .


['Reliable , Fresh Sushi']


['Everyone raved about the atmosphere ( elegant rooms and absolutely incomparable views ) and the fabulous food !']


A restaurant that does n't try to do anything except serve great food with great service in a pleasant atmosphere .

['Atmosphere is nice and relaxed too ...']


['Best Reuben sandwich ever !']


['The service was friendly and the atmosphere was casual .']


Paul , the maitre d ' , was totally professional and always on top of things .

['Tasty Dog !']


['Problem is nothing at Prune is particularly memorable .']


['the turkey burgers are scary !']


['The porcini mushroom pasta special was tasteless , so was the seafood tagliatelle .']


['We took advanatage of the half price sushi deal on saturday so it was well worth it .']

Even if the food was n't this good , the garden is a great place to sit outside and relax .

['Delicious crab cakes too .']


['The food is good , especially their more basic dishes , and the drinks are delicious .']

But if you 're prepared to spend some $ and remember to ask if something they offer is complimentary , then this is the place to go for Indian food


['The only problem is that the manager is a complete incompetent .']


['Went here last night - nice decor , good service , but the food was surprisingly excellent .']


While finishing our meals which included a high-end bottle of wine , our son 's fiance joined us for a glass of wine and dessert .


I tried a couple other dishes but was n't too impressed .


['Great place to relax and enjoy your dinner']


['Good creative rolls !']


Delivery guy sometimes get upset if you do n't tip more than 10 % .

['Most of the servers are very attentive , friendly and quite attractive .']


it 's the only place you can get yummy authentic japanese comfort food .


['Love YUKA .']

You ca n't go wrong with this place .

['Their tuna tartar appetizer is to die for .']


['Not enough wines by the glass either .']


['The seats are uncomfortable if you are sitting against the wall on wooden benches .']

['For desserts , we tried the frozen black sesame mousse ( interesting but not extraordinary ) and matcha ( powdered green tea ) and blueberry cheesecake , which was phenomenal .']


matcha ( powdered green tea ) and blueberry cheesecake


Drawbacks : service is slow and they do n't toast !

['Best Indian Chinese in the city , by far !']


['There was a small wait , but shorter than I expected .']


But after last night , Spice Grill is the only place I 'm eating indian cuisine .


The food is decent at best , and the ambience , well , it 's a matter of opinion , some may consider it to be a sweet thing , I thought it was just annoying .


['Personally I like the margherita pizza better , but they are all good .']


['If it seemed possible to do so while there I would have fought my bill since my dinner portion of my meal was inedible !']


At first glance this place seems a bit pricey for a hot dog joint , but at Bark you do n't just get your average hot dog .


['The sashimi is always fresh and the rolls are innovative and delicious .']


['Delivery can be spot on or lacking depending on the weather and the day of the week .']


['The Four Seasons restaurant is a great experience .']


['Seriously , this place kicks ass .']


I 've enjoyed 99 % of the dishes we 've ordered with the only exceptions being the occasional too-authentic-for-me dish ( I 'm a daring eater but not THAT daring ) .

['I tend to judge a sushi restaurant by its sea urchin , which was heavenly at sushi rose .']


['Yakitori ( bbq meats ) is tasty too .']


['Whenever you need a Sushi fix , Mizu will be there with quality fish and great service .']


['Faan is sooo good .']


Do n't judge this place prima facie , you have to try it to believe it , a home away from home for the literate heart .


['Fish is so very fresh .']


['My boyfriend had Prime Rib it was good .']


['Drinks way over priced .']


['Unique apppetizers .']


It 's a great place to order from or sit-in .


['The food is great and reasonably priced .']
