Catherine Oddenino: Must eat - salted caramel ice cream sundae with hot fudge, roasted peanuts and caramel corn
The Corcoran Group: The décor is absolutely stunning, and it doesn’t outshine the excellent food. Try Fluke Sashimi, Kasha and Bowtie Pasta with Veal Meatballs and the Salted Caramel Ice Cream Sundae.
Lee Umberger: You MUST try the salted caramel ice cream sundae with hot fudge, roasted peanuts and caramel corn.
Nabeel: Get the sea salt caramel ice cream. Your mouth will thank you.
The Corcoran Group: Catch them in Central Park at 80th on the Westside to enjoy a delicious sandwich made with Olive Oil Rosemary or Brown Butter and Candied Bacon ice cream.
Gilt City: Every Coolhaus sandwich comes in an edible wrapper that can be custom-printed with safe-to-eat ink. And if that's not cool enough: flavors include mango saffron, peanut butter miso and mango saffron.

Scott Kelson: Summer Sendoff - ice cream social - Salted Caramel Ice Cream courtesy of the Alchemy Creamery
Meisha-ann: Great place to work on the weekend. Try the tangerine ginger tea.
Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guide: A beautiful basement level spot w/ gorgeous design touches in Hamilton Heights, a coffee desert unrelieved by even a Starbucks. Counter Culture coffee, wifi, and soon-to-come outdoor space. Read more.
Jason Feldman: This fried chicken rivals true southern fried chicken. And that's saying a lot. Also, the banana salted caramel ice cream was a truly refreshing blend.
Valentina Monte: Delicious fried chicken, pickled cucumbers, and banana salted caramel ice cream. Also: secret menu.
Aly H.: Fried chicken, loaded fries, fountain soda = heaven. Healthy? Hell no. Worth it? Absolutely.

IrmaZandl ZandlSlant: LOVED the cheese and meat plate, the squash pizza was great but MOST amazing was the salted caramel ice cream sundae with popcorn and chocolate sauce. Great service also.
Eileen: El jardinero cocktail was great. For food, get the short rib tacos
The New Yorker: "The unevenness of the menu seems to arise from an impulse to make everything seasonal, even if it doesn’t suit the dish." Read more.

James Kiernan: What a menu! Has something for everyone, including an indulgent fried chicken sandwich, flatbreads, steaks, seafood and sides. Fun, energetic vibe.
Zayed Khan: The cocktails are pretty well balanced. Highlight of the menu is probably the "Tall Order" which pulled off the lemon-y green tea flavours really well. The "Quick Draw" was also pleasant.
Michael Natale: Service was not the best but not poor. Food was good. Try the Caesar salad, the fried tomatoes, sauteed greens, and either the hanger steak or brick chicken as the main dish.

Brandon: UWS Tapas Gem! Good vibe and great plates.
Sabina B.: Bacon-wrapped dates FTW. If you don't eat red meat, I feel very very sorry for you.
The Corcoran Group: Candlelit and cozy tapas joint with an awesome maître d’ and sommelier – they’ll remember you next time you visit. We loved the dates, lamb sliders and salt cod croquettes.
Lindsey Kim: Get the macro plate! The kale Caesar is also delicious.
Thea Rodgers: All dishes were pretty basic, but delicious. Try kale Caesar salad, orecchiette, crab & avocado toast. Made us wait 40 minutes for our table, offered free crudo for the wait & then charged us for it!
Time Out New York: Try the sundae, bourbon-vanilla & Scotch-chocolate ice creams form the base; the booze factor are cherries soaked in Pimm’s, and salted-caramel chocolate sauce & whipped cream mellow the alky punch. Read more.
