“If you go to ANY of David Burke's restaurants, you must get the lollipop cheesecake tree.”
“Desserts were divine; the lollilop tree w bubble gum whipped cream, the toffee monkey and apple pie ice cream sundae.”
“FINALLY, we get to the Arnold Palmer, it was a frozen concoction of sweet tea, lemon and mint that was served in a jar.”

Stumbled upon this place before going up to Jimmy rooftop for drinks. We decided to grab a quick bite to eat and glad we did!! We were lucky that we got there a bit early so they were able to seat us without a reservation. The menu looked awesome and after debating between apps and what entree to get, the waiter helped out and we got the roasted butter squash soup, lobster toast and scallops. The lobster toast was amazing and the soup was perfect! I definitely want to go back when i'm hungry and try other dishes ! The service was great too!!
Loved the ambience of the place as well as the range of options during winter 2016 restaurant week. True, there were quite a few dishes that required a supplemental charge like the burrata appetizer, the spaghetti with shrimp and lobster (which I got and enjoyed every extra $10 bite of), and their monkey bread dessert for two. But at a quality restaurant like this, it made sense and I'm happy to splurge.
I ended up getting the beet salad, which was simple, fresh and flavorful; the spaghetti with shrimp and lobster, which was garlicky and delicious. The Panna cotta was a bit gummy; the chocolate dessert was very chocolatey, which I liked. Part of me wishes I did pay the $15 supplemental fee for the toffee bread for two, oh well.
I look forward to coming here again, during or not during restaurant week.
Good casual food in a nice space. Came for restaurant week and found the chicken dumplings for apps pretty good. The Brussels sprouts pasta was good but nothing amazing and same good for the chocolate candy bar dessert. It's a nice place to eat for a decent and creative meal.
Lobster dumplings made me speechless.
Great place to dine during the summer, their patio is beautiful with tall buildings surrounding you right in the heart of Soho.
Been here a few times, both in the restaurant and in the tree-house bar, I am quite the fan! We came here for lunch the other day and did their 3 course tasting menu for $29. It makes more sense to do this then order an entree, much better deal. When we arrived the place was fairly quiet, so they sat us in the corner and quickly brought us our menus. I love the whole farm to table vibe and the place itself is so quaint. I really adore the pictures of the farms that surround the walls. Anyway, I started off with a glass of Syrah, which I wasn't feeling, and the waiter was happy to take it back and get me whatever else I liked. I went with a Sancerre which was tasty. Since it was freezing, I started off with their roasted acorn squash soup which was perfect for a freezing cold day. The soup itself is fairly heavy and creamy and they do give you a fair share. I loved slight the brown butter taste and the candied apple crumble. All and all sweet, creamy, and delicious. For my main I had the grilled head on prawn toast which was absolutely amazing!! It came with 4-5 prawns over guacamole, lots of local corn and arugula over delicious seven grain bread. What an amazing flavor combination. For desert I ended up having market berries (strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries) with sheep's milk frozen yogurt. Amazing!
Came in late afternoon and surprised by the restaurant week deal- they didn't have a special menu for RW, basically you can choose from the regular menu which is pretty awesome!
Appetizer- the BBQ dumpling and squash soup- both werent impressive. The dumplings had very little flavor inside and the soup was way too oily.
Main- shrimp toast: different plating then I excepted but I really liked it (supplement cost). It was kinda like half salad, with a piece of toast, with four shrimps on top. The salad had just the right refreshing taste and the toast was awesome.
Salmon: also amazing. Whatever the sauce was, i loved it!
Sides: Fries- nicely done crispy outside and soft inside.
Mushrooms- again, way too oily…
Dessert ( not the regular menu)
PB candy bar- a little disappointed by the fact that the bar is very hard, kinda taste like its prepackaged and just took out of the freezer.
Panna Cotta- refreshing and not too sweet! Love
Service: our server was very nice, we needed a little more attention than he could give us but at least he had a good attitude, but the guy who served us the mains were basically slamming the dishes on the table and not even placing the plates in front of us, and of course didn't say what the dish was.. He deserved ZERO star.
Overall a nice environment, it's also attached to The James Hotel which is located at the bottom of SoHo.
Great place on the awkward border of SoHo and Chinatown. Lots of seating for dinner time so no need to make a reservation in advance. Great typical New American-ambiance with wooden decor, dim lights, and random portraits of American farmers and foodmakers neatly handing on walls. Food was good, meats were super juicy and tender, nothing bad to say about this place. It is missing a little something special though, I just can't seem to put my finger on it.
Dunno what happened.
This would normally be a 2-star review but there was only one thing on the menu that lived up to the hype for a Weekend Brunch- The massive bowl of greek yogurt, honey, granola, and berries. Seriously the best yogurt i have ever had in my life.
The yogurt itself was a meal.
I decided to get the spinach and feta omelet as my main. IN all honesty, that yogurt was more than enough. I should have just ordered a side of bacon and called it a day.
The "omelet" was a disappointment. It was merely a thin sheet of egg whites with pocket of spinach and a drop of feta cheese. It came with a small handful of lettuce. Not what I expected.
My mother ordered the bialy and enjoyed it but they didn't prepare her eggs the way she requested and served her a runny egg sandwich on a cutting board. There was egg yolk EVERYWHERE. She enjoyed it despite the shortcomings and said the bacon saved the day.
I ordered a side of the chicken sausage which was just okay.
I would come back ONLY for the greek yogurt. They can keep their $23 egg whites.
