    This is from the Lass family. We came to NYC from California for the holidays. Like most we didn't know where to go and had a family party of seven. We went on OpenTable and we were referred Bstro 38 as OpenTable's best restaurant of 2024! Like most I try to read the worst reviews here first because I know how the 5-stars are fluff. We read the most recent 1-star review and I decided to call the management ahead of time to make sure before I made the reservation they could explain themselves. Not only did they prove the review wrong the owners personally made the reservation under their names and gave us the best Christmas dinner we will always cherish. The GM Diana was top notch and the Chef made the best meals we have ever had. We had such a great experience upstairs for dinner that we booked lunch the next day! And believe it or not the lunch was amazing! Anyway, I highly recommend this location and we are planning on making Bstro 38 a family tradition for the holidays. Thank you to the entire team. There is something about a family run operation that just feels like Christmas.

    The food and specialty drinks were fabulous! It was very crowded due to the holiday and the service could have been better. Drinks weren’t served in a timely manner. We’ve been to this restaurant before and will come back but not during the holidays!

    My waiter was from Bangladesh. He was so kind and attentive to details and made sure my time at High Tea was fabulous! I appreciated the chef explaining the foods to me also. Having Laduree desserts was the best! I highly recommend having tea here! It was a magical experience at the holidays. I do wish they would have had a harp player. Music adds so much to the experience!
