Best Fine Dining Restaurants in South Street Seaport

What a wonderful dining experience! We arrived slightly early for our 7pm reservation, and waited no time at all to be led to our table, tucked away in the corner of the main dining room. The space was bustling and energetic. Our servers were exceptionally attentive, and our meal was well-paced. We ordered the Wagyu Carpaccio as a starter. I'd travel to New York City again and again for that perfect melt-in-your mouth dish. I'll think about the horseradish sauce for months to come. My husband got the branzino, which was light and healthy, though he thought it could use an addition of a sauce or salsa to brighten it up. I had the Boeuf Borgugnon that was out-of-this world delicious—fork tender on a bed of roasted vegetables and creamy potato puree, with a sauce that had complex depth of flavor. We were celebrating birthdays, and when our server brought Basque cheesecake for dessert, it was topped with a candle and a chocolate candy happy birthday message. Looking forward to another visit soon!

Outstanding dining experience. Our 8th time going for dinner or brunch. Dinner is excellent, but the brunch is hands down the best in New York City. Hesitate to write a review because it is obvious that in the next couple months it will be impossible to get in. The setting/ambience is stunning. What you'd expect from a massive budget from RH. Staff is like Four Seasons hotel. And the food is unbelievable. You'll struggle to figure out what to order and so you'll do what we do...which is to go back. Whatever you order at brunch, make sure to include the Swedish Pancakes...possibly the best pancakes on the planet. Sweet potato is not to be missed (brunch or dinner!). I heard another diner today (patriarch of what appeared to be an elegant Southern family) say "the avocado dish was epic". I think I'll have to go back myself to verify!

Found this place on TikTok. Went for Valentine’s Day. Made reservations in December. Place was charming, lively and made to feel very, very elegant. We had a great time smoking our cigars and listening to the live music. 10/10 Experience, will be back again!

I have no complaints ! On arrival the ambiance was great, dim lighting , calm music , and a sense of class and elegance to match. Tables weren’t ready yet but we were directed to one of the bars where the drinks started our nights off perfectly! As receiving our tables 5 minutes after and food about 10 minutes after that I was shocked how fast things were moving to make accommodations. The food was to die for, the shaking steak I highly recommend as the seasonings was so savory. The sticky rice complimented it perfectly definitely giving that tai feel,while our waiter was nothing short of perfect even offering us tiramisu ahead to time so it would be received faster as it was. If you’re looking for a good date night place that isn’t too pricy but still gives out Luxury I highly recommend it there!

Everything was top notch. It was our anniversary date, we loved every bit of it
