DJ JensenAugust 27, 2016In the dining room, first table on the right where the booth curves, has water dripping from the ceiling. Ask to be reseated!
John PoissonJanuary 8, 2015Trendy, but perfectly executed. The best NY strip I've had in a decade. Impeccable service.
Young to PublishingSeptember 11, 2011Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound, Eugene O'Neill, E. E. Cummings, Dylan Thomas, and Joe Gould put in time at this 1937 bar notable for its murals of Village sights and scenes covering the inside walls.
Alyssa B.November 3, 2019The Black Label Burger prepped medium rare leaves you savoring every bite, pair with Saint-Estephe 2015. Fries were okay.
Lee HoffmanMarch 11, 2014The minetta burger is phenomenal, but the black burger is life changing. Ask them to cut them in half and go halvies.
M HApril 17, 2016Take the bar seat and order a medium-rare black label burger, you will feel like a New Yorker
Jennifer DingJune 17, 2013Of course, you must get the black label burger. But beware, it's rather salty. And if you usually like a medium-rare, you'll want to opt for medium here.
@JaumePrimeroJanuary 5, 2012Any burger aficionado must pay a visit here at least once. And they are now open for lunch Wed. through Saturday until 3pm!
Emily WilsonJanuary 7, 2017I order my burger rare. Those who are like me, trust me when I say you want the black label burger cooked medium rare, at least.
Dylan StilinMarch 4, 2014Great burgers. The Minetta Burger is easily as good, and might be better than the Black Label (and $9 cheaper).
jon accarrinoJuly 28, 2014Order the Black Label burger. It's incredible. Fantastic location. Plan ahead. Reservations are almost impossible.
Jastine KhoAugust 29, 2015The black label burger is worth the hype. Still deciding if it's worth $28 though
Louret EscottoOctober 22, 2018Minetta burger and seared foie grad were to die for. Made a very special Sunday dinner.
Julia MJanuary 10, 2017Trout with jumbo lump crabmeat and brioche croutons, paired with side of broccoli rabe 👌🏼
Don't be shy to ask for cheese on their famous burger! Order a souffle when your burgers arrive.
Serious EatsApril 19, 2013Chef Dale Talde loves the Black Label Burger; it's like eating a steak between two buns.
DanJanuary 15, 2016Get some beef: either the black label burger, the bone marrow, or the Côte de Beouf
RyanSeptember 12, 2014Black label burger is as good as advertised, don't bother checking out the rest of the menu.
Navin AmbiDecember 16, 2016The steak for two with bone marrow was awesome. The cocktails are immaculate.
Mike HSeptember 14, 2012Incredible. Black Label Burger lives up to the hype, cocktails are awesome, chocolate souffle is amazing. Just go.
FabioNovember 16, 2013This is Tony Bourdain pick for burgers. They are really out of this world. Ambiance of t place is also spectacular.
Jason DennyJune 12, 2016The cheeseburger is to die for and the filet Mignon with blue cheese is delish.
Athena ChangAugust 21, 2015Try the Steak for Two - Probably the best steak I have had! #steak #nyc (via @Foodspotting)
Meg Gonzalez-DickersonJuly 18, 2013Yes, the black label deserves all the hype BUT the minetta burger is amazing too! They both just melt in your mouth!
RCMay 15, 2015The dry-aged burger is great as I'm sure you've heard. Worth going just for that? Debatable.
Follow FoodieSeptember 19, 2018Black Label burger is quite possibly the best burger I've ever had in my life.
Fernanda Di GiaimoJuly 14, 2013Minetta burger is awesome, especially with a Pilsner on a warm summer day!
AlexJune 13, 2012It’s not a traditional Old Fashioned, as the Maple cordial adds a twist to the flavor, but definitely worth enjoying sitting at the bar.- Itai NathanielApril 5, 2013They make their own mayonnaise. You gotta love places which make their own mayonnaise, especially if it has a lemonish after taste.
Alex MizrahiJune 17, 2013"The streets outside Minetta Tavern are crawling with NYU students, but they never go in this former speakeasy in the heart of Greenwich Village. Probably because it's too old, too comfortable, too.." Read more
Selim VarolAugust 18, 2014Def one of the best Burgers on this Planet! A must try if you ever visot NYC. #burgerlove

Christine LustigApril 19, 2015Classic old school New York spot. Good burger/ claimed to be the best in town.
J ZFebruary 11, 2012For lunch/brunch get a beer & the regular burger (yes, no black label!), it's one of the best in the city, plus the fries are ridic
James Wooten IIIMarch 12, 2011You have not lived until you've had the Black Label burger. If you don't have a reservation, the best time to grab a table on a whim is during brunch.
Sam CMarch 11, 2012The Black Label burger lived up to its (delicious) reputation. So did the bone marrow app. Get both. Die of deliciousness.
Amanda JayeFebruary 1, 2014Get the Black Label Burger! No need for a table. Bar is great and awesome bar tenders.
Milun TesovicApril 5, 2012there's quiet a focus on beef and burgers. Has one of the best burgers in town. Plenty of fish on the menu too.
