Joey JApril 23, 2016The Ceci e Pepe will blow your mind. Beef Crudo and scallops in tigers milk were great too.
Chelsea BalkanApril 23, 2016#DubiDO #FabuLIST prepared to be flavor blasted. Try the crudo, scallops, clams, Pepe e cici pasta, and dumplings.
Sean SmithMarch 31, 2019Pasta course is amazing. You might not feel like you will finish, but you can make it!
Roniel TesslerNovember 8, 2017Nishi 2.0 is on. the. mark. 👏endive, Capellini, and pork were fantastic. Can't wait to go back.
Jannike OlofssonSeptember 24, 2016First place in NYC (I think) to serve the vegan impossible burger. Recommended!
David BrahlerSeptember 16, 2016Get the Impossible Burger in the impossibly small window of time it's available each day
Joshua BoggsSeptember 28, 2016The impossible burger mostly tastes like a regular burger, and it's crazy to see it bleed. Def order it with cheese.
Alex GordonApril 15, 2016Pastas are delicious, pork is average. Chicken soup is insane. But no tipping is the best.
Foxxy BOctober 15, 2018Food is honestly overrated. “Ceci e pepe” is watery & sweet; ribs special are large & juicy in a cheap way; & the wagyu crudo is boring & forgettable. Odd fusion. Service is accommodating but slow.
MaryJanuary 28, 2016Beef crudo: A++, mackerel, black bass: Bs, chitarra: C. Service was ok but waiters are too enthusiastic about average dishes. Seating is, like too many new restos these days, quite uncomfortable.
Ricky SherrillMay 7, 2018The "Impossible Burger" stood up to the hype. I am not a Vegetarian but will order again & am a Fan.
Ina LiMarch 29, 2017Highly hyped and very mediocre food considering the long wait and high prices. Too salty and greasy in general
- MartinMarch 31, 2016Min nya favorit från David Chang. Italien möter koreanskt. Helt sjukt gott! Prova deras cider.
Lives up to what I've come to expect from David Chang joints. Acceptable mediocrity wrapped up nicely in a hype package. I really wanted to like this place. I just can't.
