Everything was fantastic except that I wrote in the reservation that it was my husband’s birthday and then reminded the hostess when we got there but the waiter/kitchen failed to put a candle in the dessert for his birthday. Otherwise, the food was amazing g. They did credit us for the dessert for messing that up.

as a family of 6, we thoroughly enjoyed our meals, I had the filet mignon. My daughter and son-in-law had short ribs, my husband and one of my grandsons had a hamburger, and my other grandson had salmon. All the dishes were exceptional, as was the service. I was a bit leery because we made reservations very late, but my fears were unfounded, everything about Bistro 38 was outstanding. Can't wait to return

The overall experience was great. Could use a children’s menu but we were able to work around the menu to satisfy our two young kids. The food was very good. The service was excellent.

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.

New England claim chowder was delicious! Salads were ok but could have used more dressing mixed into the greens so perhaps ask as for extra. Bar and decor for the holidays were simple and well done. A little pricey for what we ate but would definitely try it again.
