Bryant Park Grill

Food was very good but not exceptional. You will enjoy dining here, nonetheless. Every dish is well plated. We served with flare by Renee'. Welcoming and helpful staff with disabled guest. Again thanks! On nicer days head to the top for the best view with bar. If you're lucky grab a table and dine up there. Great view of historic, beautiful Bryant Park. Garden Dining Room overlooks park, too. Selections: Tomahawk Steak for 2 with stuffed Potatoes. Tender & tastes steak with onions, enough for 3 hearty people, large stuffed potatoes with flavorful Chimicurri sauce, Wild Mushroom Ravioli with veggies in parmesan broth. Very good tasting ravioli filling. Pork Belly in soft pillow with pureed Sweet Potato-best tasting plate of the dinner. Delicious puree. Grilled Vegetable Platter-6 Broccoli stems; 2 radishes slices; 1 large cooked beet sliced healthy heap of hummus with mushrooms & 2 pitas....$27.00 (big profit margin, lol). Recommend Bryant Park Grill just for the experience and view, just don't order the Grilled Veggie plate.

We were a group of five. From cocktails to dessert, everything was delicious. Hamachi and tuna crudo, crabcake, calamari, burgers, flounder, all excellent. The smore dessert was decadent, and the cookie sampler was bountiful. The cocktails are pricey, which drove up our bill, but worth the splurge.

I had lunch during the month of December with my family, we were 7 people. Reservation is a must.

The service is excellent, all the staff is very friendly and profesional.
The quality of food, very specific the meat is excellent. I will repeat it again.

The restaurant is big with Parisian-style, big windows with a lot of natural light. It’s loud in case you are looking for something more quiet. This place is great for family parties and friends.

After or before eating, I recommend to have a walk around which is nice.

Highly recommended.

We are at the Bryant Park Grill and enjoyed the fact that it was located on the edge of the park. The views were lovely. The food was very good and their menu is sizable and diverse. Our table server was very friendly and attentive. The only negatives we found was the receptionist was not very personable, not rude, just not friendly. The other issue was a dirty spot on the curtains adjacent to our seating. Not a big issue just out of line with the rest of the decor. Overall a pleasant experience.

Great feeling overlooking Bryant Park, service staff impeccable and attentive, even at the door during Christmas crowds. Food all good as expected, despite the full house crowds. Only hit is the high price for this place. Parking also an issue as it's directly sandwiched behind the library and the park, so will need to find parking in nearby parking garages.

Unexpected gem right in the heart of Bryant Park. I was expecting a typical NYC tourist trap, but this was far from it. The food was absolutely delicious. Our party started with the Grilled Bread with Vegan Spreads. The tomatoes and eggplant spreads in particular were fresh and tasty. Be careful with the long hot chili, as it had quite a kick. I had the Grilled Filet Mignon Burger for my main course. This exceeded expectations. Cooked to perfection, the burger was moist and flavorful. We wrapped up the meal by sharing the Chocolate S'more for dessert. Brilliant presentation. The Peanut ice cream was particularly exquisite. Servers worked hard and were very attentive. Highly recommend if you're in the Bryant Park area.

For the price, I do not think this place was worth it. It is convenient being right next to Bryant Park, but honestly I think there are better restaurant options in the area.

We ordered 2 glasses of wine, 2 apps, 3 entrees, a side of fries and shared one dessert and it came out to just under $100pp with tax and tip.

The fries calamari and lump crab apps were good, both were small portions. The fries were soggy and cold, almost as if they were made from a large batch. Definitely not fresh, not worth the $15. Waitor never asked how we wanted the salmon cooked and it came out way over cooked and dry. Had to send it back and asked for it medium rare but it came back medium well. The miso glaze for the salmon was more of a thin soup. However the branzino with the butternut squash risotto was delicious. It was my favorite dish of the night. The creme brulee was okay but disappointed some parts of the sugar was burnt and inedible (the part covered by the cookie).

Would not recommend if you're trying to chat and catch up with friends as is very loud. I also had to edit the pictures so they weren't so dark and purple.
