Stephanie Redhead: Try the Detox juice filled with carrots, apples,beets, and ginger- delicious!
Lauren: Asked for a custom smoothie: spinach, carrot, banana & peanut butter. Not sure the spinach made it in! Reasonably priced though. 👌

Terry Collins: Samosas, kheema pav, tandoori chicken, mango lassi, and chai!
Michael C: Have the classic steeped chai. It's lightly sweetened and just the right amount if spice. My friend said it was like being back home.

Nakisha: This place is absolutely adorable! Great ambiance; quait backyard that's perfect for dining al fresco in the summer. Lovely interiors and most of all: amazing food! Will be back for brunch and dates!
Harlem Ambassador: The back garden seems to require "reservations". While the parlour, with it's limited space, is relaxed, so is the service. Be mindful of Euro portions, and prices! At least it's chic and tasteful.
Teodora Maria: I love the way this place is set up, you feel like you're in someone's living room. The sangria is delicious, and I'm in love with their salted caramel sauce.

U Nwo: This is my first time tasting Dominican food and it was awesome! Very cheap and I will definitely go back again on my next visit to NY!!!
Ian Valentine: Ordering here is always chaotic, especially if you don't speak Spanish... but the food is *really* good.
SexyLo_FFF: Great food and prices and if you spend over $10.00, which is not a bad minimum like some other restaurants in the area, you can use a credit card. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner - food is always great!!!

Wine Bar · Central Harlem · 43 tips and reviews
Harlem Ambassador: While the space was jinxed in the past, the new wine bar is a hit with the nabe elites. It's even crowded during a blizzard! An endless wine selection. The lobster carpaccio & skirt steak is a must!
Claude Draillard: Could be great if service was at the level of the wine list. Food is good. Wines are well picked But service is as organized as traffic on a busy day in Cairo!
Liz Dolinski: get a glass of port to go with your vegan chocolate mousse. yummy combo.

Alexandra Jenkins: Delicious burger and chicken parm, also calamari. I also had a very smooth martini. Some of the best service I've ever seen, from each and every waiter to the owner. Definitely try this place!
Terance Thatch: The service was slighty slow but Lobster BLT, Maple Crusted French Toast, Truffle Macaroni & Cheese and Fresh Seasonal Fruit coupled with the ambiance made up for it. I'll definitely be back.
Dei West: Linguine Alla Scampi is really good! I just wish they gave a little more shrimp.

Brad Garoon: Brunch accompanied by a jazz set is soothing. Try the Venison burger, a gamey patty topped with sweet blackberry onion jam, farm cheese, and country ham. The challah bun is a great touch. Read more.
The New Yorker: “Well-heeled jazz lovers can order from a prix-fixe menu that includes sherry she-crab soup and smoked quail with a giblet cornbread cake, while listening to the house band.” Read more.

Kristen Murphy: Seasonal menu, but the short ribs, gnocchi, and veal meatballs are fantastic. Wine list is good & priced well. Hard to go wrong here.
__TR3V: Get there before 1pm to beat the church crowd for Sunday brunch. The French toast and the chicken panini are great options to try. Opt for the bottomless mimosas. Well worth it
Harlem Ambassador: Finally an eatery that gives good service, good wine, good food and good face. This is one good looking staff. Check out their gay night for the hipster folk with cash.
