Best Restaurants for Groups in East Village

What can I say…Carmine’s never disappoints. It’s just one of my all time favorites in NYC. Food and service and cocktails were fantastic!

Always great. Food is top notch. Always a go to when in NYC.

One of the best experiences I’ve had in New York. Had to book pretty early in advance due to the Valentines Day weekend rush, but got a lovely early afternoon spot. The atmosphere was so elegant & classy. Our waitress Mary Alice was so kind, accommodating, and overall such a pleasure to interact with. Yes it is pricey, but the experience and the quality of the food/tea was well worth it.

A great place overall. A very young, energetic crowd (in other words loud) but the food is excellent and it's not expensive for NYC. I go here every few months or so.

GET THERE EARLY FOR BRUNCH!!!!! if late, no almond croissant...just other baked goodies...we ate the wonderful baked eggs and the tuna tartare -- delicious and good sized portions. the small wine list is adequate for brunch.` `Our waiter Carlos is super professional, having worked in many multi-star restos. Cozy vibe in both bar and dining room areas...worth reserving well in advance ``````````````
