Åsa VikströmSeptember 19, 2014Thin rosemarytasting French Fries was very good:) The famous burger was burnt, and it was so crowded with people so I didn't take time to complain
Michelin Travel & LifestyleAugust 16, 2011Dine early-bird at the Spotted Pig; you won’t have to fight the crowds for a table and there’s no risk they’ll run out of the amazing ice cream, freshly made each day. - Inspector
- Gina YSeptember 6, 2014Amazing burger and shoestring fries. Meat tender and flavoursome, cooked well. Cocktails very good too.
- David QuiñonesSeptember 15, 2016Classy place. You can only find ONE burger, so the choice will be fast. And amazing, though.
There is no better burger on the planet. I insist you have the rockfort without delay. Be warned, the wait is typically two hours. Leave your name and grab a drink at white horse around the corner
Tom MaxwellApril 7, 2019The grilled cheese at the bar is next level. Really chill place to have a beer and relax.
Carolina RevillaApril 29, 2016The pig ear salad was amazing. The burger was great, however, the wait can be long but worth it
Chris PolloneJanuary 21, 2016Cool spot. Not sure that the wait is worth the hype most days. I had the famous burger, and I love salt, but it was way too salty for me. Maybe an off day.
Steve PolandMarch 11, 2015@kanyewest: If you wanna have a drink with me, book a table at the spotted pig when I’m back in NY.
Rebecca GottliebDecember 29, 2012Make sure to put your name down at least an hour or 2 in advance. Get ricotta gnudi, deviled eggs and the burger of course.
Stan BashmashnikovJanuary 3, 2014Easily one of the best Burgers in all of NYC. A must have - once, twice, and many more times over.
Adam SiemiginowskiJuly 20, 2013The ketchup is so good. I want to eat it with a spoon. The fries are a good replacement for the spoon.
Sarah ProefkeSeptember 6, 2014Went for brunch - the Dutch baby was definitely the best choice! Delicious! And the staff gets a hot tamale!
Daniel BouludJuly 30, 2014I go for the devils on horseback and ricotta gnudi with pesto. The Spotted Pig has become a New York institution.
Serious EatsApril 19, 2013Royal Bamboo: La Gitana Sherry, Dolin Blanc Vermouth, and Angostura with a cava float.
Spotted by Locals - city guides by localsAugust 15, 2015Chargrilled Burger with Roquefort Cheese & Shoestring Fries is highly recommended! Read more
Alden CatesMay 22, 2015Burger is extremely popular, but don't be afraid to get an appetizer as well as you've probably waited hours to be seated.
ММNovember 20, 2011I have actually trekked here from random distances just for their Devils on Horseback. Phenomenal. And the staff and patrons are usually a great social mix.- The Tastes that Make the CityJanuary 28, 2015The ricotta gnudi is the best gnudi in NYC, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: NYC Edition."

Carolina BorbergAugust 13, 2014Even though I don't like liver, the liver toast is a must have. Also the burger melts in your mouth!
Sarah DavisDecember 20, 2013Pumpkin soup was the best soup I've ever had. Awesome on a cold day. Grilled cheese was awesome too!
TristanJanuary 3, 2016Don't let the exterior fool you. This is a rightfully Michelin Star awarded restaurant that you better come early for seating.
Haddock chowder for lunch is one of my favorite soups OF ALL TIIIIME.
amNewYorkNovember 7, 2012With Jay-Z as one of the owners, it's not a long shot that some celeb might show up. But even if the stars aren't aligned, there's plenty on this Michelin-starred menu to sink your teeth into.
Laurel BoylenMay 5, 2012Try the Sheep’s Ricotta Gnudi with Brown Butter and Sage - This must not be missed. Salty, ricotta, rich ...probably best for sharing :)
Francisco PerezSeptember 18, 2019Good burger, and delicious fries served with thin slices of garlic and fresh rosemary.

Daniela TerminelAugust 4, 2013Shishito peppers were amazing... Shoestring fries: the best i've had, the rosemary and garlic make them awesome!
HowcastNovember 15, 2011What's better than burgers and beer? A healthy but delicious turkey burger and beer! Check out our video on how to make awesome turkey burgers and keep that belly trim!
Steff HindSeptember 15, 2014Go early and put your name on the list then head out some where for a drink it is a little crowed to wait upstairs
Joon PakOctober 21, 2015Chicken Liver toast might be one of the best things I've ever eaten. Burger was overrated.
Jeffrey ChoiApril 8, 2015Expect a long wait, but it's worth it. I got the burger and shoestring fries and it was divine.
Lou AllenMay 9, 2016The string fries are out if this world good. Sage and rosemary. Devious and delicious
JanaDecember 15, 2017The owner, Ken Friedman, has been accused by multiple women of sexual assault. I’m never eating here again. I feel bad for the women that have to work under these conditions. 😞- Guest of a GuestFebruary 8, 2012Renowned for its burger and fries, The Spotted Pig also boasts such rare niceties as fried duck egg, pork belly, and liver toast.

Heungjun Jeremy KimJanuary 2, 2014A little salty for Korean, but taste is perfect. Potatoes are sliced thinly but mixed burned garlic, so flavor is wonderful.
Roniel TesslerAugust 5, 2017This place is still top notch. Gnudi and burger for sure. Deviled egg is creamy and rich, but I've had better.
Speckled Hen on draft is great. Get the burger and fries because that is what you are here for.
BravoJanuary 28, 2010A must-stop whenever I am in NYC. Gnudi are killer, best burger, and on my last visit the peas were a revelation. -Preeti Mistry, Top Chef
Gus BorrmannSeptember 24, 2014I had the Pork Rillete and it was fabulous. Restaurant is cozy and has great staff.
Kathryn DFebruary 17, 2018Can’t support a place that has documented sexual harassment on a critical scale.
