Best Modern European Restaurants in Downtown / Union Square

Lovely bistro ambience, high ceilings, open room with natural light. We had salads so can’t talk about the pasta which did look delicious. Salads were generous, fresh and well dressed. The cheese cake was incredibly creamy. For a Saturday lunch, restaurant wasn’t full. Service was prompt friendly and attentive. Quiet room, easy to have a conversation.

Excellent service Cocktails excellent Do not care for aioli on fish so ordered risotto which was very good, but normally order fish

Wow. We had a wonderful time at the Red Window. We had been anticipating going for a few months. We had booked a table to celebrate 2 belated birthdays in August for October. Little did we know that they changed their hours of opening for October. I called and reconfirmed the date and time with them and they said they would open for us as planned. We were treated like queens. We had a lovely server name Melanie. She served us our fantastic rojo sangria and let us know all the popular tapas and entrees as well as her favorites. One of the birthday girls is a food and wine blogger so she picked Melanie brain on the drinks and food being served. We ordered food we could all share. Caesar salad, Arugula Salad,Buffalo chicken wings,and Chili Braised Lamb pasta. Everything was delicious and very filling. They comp us 4 glasses of champagne to celebrate our 2 ladies birthday. What a memorable day. Melanie from Lucca made it so special for us too. The ambiance of the Red Window is colorful and festive and the lively music they played gave it a party atmosphere. We will all go back again. Thanks to the owner for honoring our reservations. You made us very happy!!
