Restaurants near Park Avenue

I've always had a good experience at Ilili, and have been there several times in the past, but only for dinner (This time I went for brunch). Our server took a lot of time explaining the items on the menu. The quality of the cocktails and mezzas we ordered were really good, with food at a good warm temperature and seasoned well. I did like the variety of dinner menu offering more than the weekend brunch menu, and the brunch menu had more items that were more typical brunch items (e.g. Salmon burger, avocado toast). Nevertheless, the brunch food was still decent.

We’ve eaten at Carmine’s a few times now but we love eating there during this time of year. Carmine’s is the perfect spot for a festive holiday meal! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with beautiful decorations that set the holiday mood. The service is top-notch—attentive and friendly, making you feel right at home. Their family-style Italian dishes are absolutely delicious, with generous portions that are perfect for sharing. So, for being in the heart of NYC, it’s a decent value for our family. Whether it’s a holiday gathering or just a night out, Carmine’s delivers a memorable dining experience

Beautiful location! Our waiter was incredible! He recommended a great Cabernet Sauvignon by the glass for me and everything we ordered from appetizers, steak, sides and desserts were absolutely delicious!! The restaurant was packed but the only downside to our experience was the noise level. It was so loud that it made it difficult to have a conversation at our table for four. Despite the noise, I would highly recommend this restaurant for an incredibly delicious steak dinner!

Great night! Had my sales teams holiday dinner there tonight. They had to turn our table over after two hours and 45 minutes, and politely asked us to leave, but I can understand that. They did a great job on one of the busiest nights in the city. 

We actually stumbled upon this place without knowing it was an Omakase style service. Boy, were we happy to realize what it was! We are big sushi people so we were also happy once we took the first bite. Each creation was flavorful and delicious! The host and chefs were friendly & accommodating. The host curated the music playlist which set the perfect vibe for the night. If you want a perfect night, do yourself a favor and make a reservation.
