Kate K.Kate K: Didn't anticipate the after work happy hour/party vibe. Super loud. Big TV. If you're into that sort of thing...

Annie M.Annie Morgan: Best pizza hands down! You can taste the brick oven on the perfectly crispy crust. Servers are awesome and funny too. A bit loud thou.

Borja B.Borja Burgos: Solid, but not the best in NY. Get the bacon and your favorite cut for the steak. Can get pretty loud, and very busy given its location.

Felipe A.Felipe Albuquerque: Lugar feio e barulhento mas carne excelente. Pedir sempre carré

The Corcoran GroupThe Corcoran Group: A gorgeously decorated steakhouse (very warm and traditional) serving perhaps the best porterhouse in NYC – get the potatoes and creamed spinach. Finish with the apple strudel.

Augie R.Augie Ray: For the perfect Campbell experience, visit in the afternoon when crowds are lower and you can enjoy the gorgeous space and terrific jazz soundtrack. It gets pretty crazy busy and loud in the evening.

Lauren M.Lauren Mac: Wow, this place is great. Lively but not crowded, pricey but not outrageous, dark but not hard to see. Live jazz played (maybe a bit too loud), but service was great. Try the bayerd fizz or punch.

IrmaZandl Z.IrmaZandl ZandlSlant: GORGEOUS space, friendly staff but unbearably LOUD until much later at nite eg at 7:30 we couldn't hear each other by 11pm it was perfect!!

Karthik R.Karthik Raman: Solid WiFi with decent number of outlets. Loud, but not distracting music. Great for meetings, decent for getting work done, poor choice for a phone call.

Andrew C.Andrew Cafourek: Busy and loud upfront. And while it may be hard to find a spot in the back, if you get one, it's quiet and cozy.

Jeff T.Jeff Tomczek: Drip coffee, fresh bakery and even almond milk. Communal table in front great for meetings. Back library perfect for relaxed reading. Could use more seating, but for Midtown East this is a real cafe.

AmateurConciergeAmateurConcierge: Good spot for a work dinner, tho some seats can get loud. Lobster is bomb bomb

James K.James Kiernan: A good place to entertain clients or host out of towners. The chicken parm pizza is a bit gimmicky but it still puts asses in the seats. Ask for a table by the window where it’s less loud. 🍝🍕

ᴡ M.ᴡ M: Best Italian cuisine in NYC.. steaks are amazingly yummy.. salads are fresh ( go with Caesar salad you won't regret it) desserts are delicious.. service is out standing. Love this place.

Steve H.Steve Herrera: Power lunch, or happy hour, Pera hits the spot. It's a bit loud but not so bad you can't hear what your party is saying. It's a nice "exotic" alternative to your typical Bar and Grill options.

Tash C.Tash Concepcion: A perfect place for a business lunch or dinner but it gets really loud. The Pera Twists and Chicken Brochette are very good. The chicken is very moist and tender in both dishes.

ElegranElegran: Refined ambiance and decor make it a perfect place for business lunch in Grand Central area. Also a good spot to share delicious lavash chips and hummus with friends, and enjoy a good bottle of wine. Read more.

RailiRaili: A bit too much overpriced, but maybe it’s because in NY.. :) Ribeye with bone was their trigger, but I have tasted some better ones. Friendly service, but place tooo loud for like romantic dates.

Brett F.Brett Fromme: Great cuts of beef and delicious sides. Always a great meal, but you can quickly run up a very big bill here. My #2 steakhouse in Manhattan!

Elena G.Elena Gribok: Good place, with facecontrol and checking your id, the music is a bit too loud if you want smth for a relax and fancy night other then that all is really good

Gilt CityGilt City: We love this rooftop lounge for its views, sure: but the spiced duck “cigars” with pomegranate dipping sauce are the real reason we keep going back.

Michael G.Michael G.: Solid happy hour deal. $5 beers. Not so loud and easy to talk with people.

PiaPia: My new fave neighborhood bar that is def a "regulars" type of spot. The dirty martinis are solid. The spinach dip, pulled pork sandwich and Cajun fries are all delish. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more.

Andrew C.Andrew C: When no special event is happening, the park is wonderful... still loud and in the middle of it all, but quiet peaceful and relaxing + great spot for people watching!!!

WasanWasan: Amazing park. Tiny, but lively and packed with activities. Ping pong, reading room, and a carrousel to name a few. Plus lots of great food options. My favourite spot in Manhattan.

The New YorkerThe New Yorker: “Many of the midday strollers in the park are office workers; they have the subdued mood of prison inmates released into the yard for their daily hour of sunshine and exercise.” —Victor Chen, 1974 Read more.
