Upscale, and NOT filled with tourists from Times Square #nyc -the staff is great, friendly, and attentive. You can't go wrong w/the burger. The drinks are perfect & so is dessert. One of my fav spots.

Big fish tacos are my go to at this Bobby Flay establishment. Or if you're feeling especially indulgent, order the Kentucky Hot Brown - open faced hot turkey sando with bacon and gravy on top.

Everything here is the best!! Chips w/ bleu cheese dip is heavenly! Grilled pizza! Juiciest fried chicken Ive ever had! Take a peak in the open kitchen, you may just see bobby flay back their cooking!

if I want to describe with a word this restaurant, will be QUALITY , a love everything, the service, food, atmosphere! I want to came back again!, the lobster sandwich was delicious!!

Great brunch, highly recommend the crab cake Benedict if you have enough self-control not to fill up on the bread basket (cheesy biscuits, cornbread and coffee cake)
Douglas EllimanJuly 21, 2014
Incredible cuisine from chef Bobby Flay. Beware of the bread basket- the corn bread sticks are impossible to resist! We love everything from the burger to the chocolate cream pie.

Bobby Flay's brasserie offers upscale, French-inflected takes on regional American classics, with a particular emphasis on seafood and game.

The green chili mussels are insane! The perfect place for the business traveler who has to dine alone at the bar. And the cocktails... Let's just say, a little tipsy already. Yum!

Seat by a lawyers table while they discuss a trip with prostitutes. They will order lobsters and fries. You will start with clam chowder followed by an overcooked rib eye. That is midtown.
Ricky SherrillOctober 27, 2015
A nice choice for a pre theatre meal. Plenty of choices on the menu. Grab some of their appetizers while you decide. I always try the special.
Amy CummingsMarch 16, 2017
Amazing! My mom is obsessed with Bobby Flay so we went here on her visit and got steak. The sauces made it above and beyond!

Really good food without any of the commercial bobby flay Schtick...salmon is excellent and very good wine pairing suggestions
Cynthia MoxleyJuly 21, 2013
One of our top 10 best meals. Great staff and management. Unbelievably good food and expertly paired wine. I had the cioppino and it was rich, complex and delicious.

Chef Bobby Flay focuses on the best America offers - entrees/specials range from scallops to ribs to fried chicken & everything in between. Wines by the glass/half bottle. Lunch/dinner, wkd brunch.
Natalie TaboisNovember 2, 2011
Off the brunch menu ordered tasting of All three shellfish cocktails and the Hot Potato Chips with Blue Cheese Sauce. Everything was amazing, including the pickle bloody mary :)))
Nisa GOctober 12, 2014
Upscale restaurant, a good saturday brunch option. Raw bar (seafood) great, and the seafood cocktail trio is yummy.
New York HabitatNovember 15, 2011
This Bobby Flay restaurant takes an interesting turn with its southern inspired menu. Try the shrimp and grits, Cioppino, or the lamb with sweet potato gratin.
Jorge Díaz LargoDecember 12, 2014
Surprisingly, pizza is also good here, though there's only one choice: smoked salmon with caramelized onions and toasted garlic.
Ailie ChangMay 6, 2015
Really enjoyed the Miami Pork Chop! The sweet potatoes with the entree is so good! Make a reservation.
Food NetworkNovember 16, 2010
The food here is as bold as the owner, Iron Chef Bobby Flay, who marries American-style cuisine with the energetic atmosphere of a European brasserie. Be sure to try the Plate of the Day.

Lunch was good and super close to the Neil Simon theater. Noise level was good too for a lunch where you want to be able to hear and not shout.
💋лолиьта💋December 20, 2014
👍Probably you can find here the best meat in town accompanied by nice sides and exceptional wine 😉

This burger is served with a complimentary side of fries and Bobby Flay's signature smoked red pepper mayonnaise. Read more

Nice place. Good food. Excellent burger. Was great to have lunch and get out of the cold.
J CrowleyOctober 21, 2015
The bourbon smash cocktail was perfect. I wanted to order 3 more but didn't want to end up in some random person's bathtub.
Chrissy BarreraOctober 11, 2013
Beautiful decor. Delicious food! Recommend the blue cheese dip w potato chips & French onion soup! So tasty!
Mike HopkinsFebruary 15, 2015
Excellent romantic and upscale atmosphere. The shrimp and grits are amazing. Go for brunch!
Jennifer MaguireNovember 6, 2014
Get the hot potato chips with blue cheese. Hit the gym tomorrow. Crispy oysters are divine!
Brian EatDrinkMadison.comNovember 1, 2010
The ribeye steak is stunning. I would re-order this every time if not for the fact that I want to try everything on the menu. The fries and sauce are excellent, too.

Bread basket. Potato chips. Deviled eggs. Seafood cocktails especially crab with coconut.
Sam KrasnikMay 14, 2016
Great pork preparation if they have it on the menu. Great selection of bourbon.
Eugene NamAugust 8, 2014
Nice decor. Food was well prepared. A good power lunch or date spot despite the touristy area.
Neil MarucaOctober 29, 2016
Enjoyed the shrimp & grits. Don't miss the hot potato chips with blue cheese dip
Steve PolandFebruary 19, 2010
The chips were great with blue chz- extra chips was $3 more. Salmon fri special was delish. Bourbon dessert was light and perfect even on full stomach. Dirty martini kettel1 $14 and was like 3 shots.
Jonathan ZJuly 31, 2016
I was like, "I've hunted for great burgers all around New York, what's flay got to add?" Let me tell you, it's legit. I'm stuffed, I'm happy.
Keri HansonAugust 13, 2014
Racer 5 beer by the bottle and deviled eggs. Also, great raw bar.
LaurenSeptember 3, 2010
it's all about the HOT POTATO CHIPS with blue cheese sauce. trust me, i grew up in buffalo i know a good blue cheese and Bobby is perfection!
Celia ColtreSeptember 3, 2011
The grilled pizza is delicious as either a meal or an appetizer to share with friends. Different but delicious
Michelle AndersonMay 6, 2013
The hot potato chips are skippable as an app, try the corn soup with okra instead!
Tim ChristensenMay 19, 2013
The shellfish cocktail trio is awesomely good. Also, Bobby's decadent version of Kentucky Hot Brown.
Kelli MOctober 17, 2014
Yeah, the food is meh, but there really is a good chance you'll see Bobby Flay, and after enough Whiskey Smashes, you won't care either way.
Jodie PisarkApril 22, 2012
Best brunch bread basket in NYC! And get the Kentucky Hot Brown. You know you want it.
Gail NeufeldJune 11, 2011
Omg. The onion soup was the most incredible soup I've ever had. The cheese melted in my mouth till the very last bite!
Mohammed C.August 12, 2013
Roast turkey, griddled tomato, and bacon on savory French toast, smothered in Mornay sauce — gives open-faced sandwiches a good name.
René BourdagesFebruary 11, 2011
I love the Lobster (Plate of teh day) and the fries were amng the best I ever had in my whole life. wow!
Edna LeeNovember 20, 2011
Try the West Coast And East Coast Oysters - Sooo fresh and delicious... Sorry for the crappy pic :S
Bullfrog & BaumJanuary 24, 2011
This bold restaurant is on top of its game. The trio of seafood cocktails is a great way to start your meal, followed by one of Bobby Flay's steaks that are spiced-rubbed.

The New York strip is outstanding! The creamed corn (when available) and mashed potatoes are also super delish.

Try the Avocado Lobster Salad - It's a must! Perfect combination with light finish. This lobster is to die!
Scott MSeptember 2, 2010
Try the red pepper crab cake. big lumps of blue crab. I also learned a lot too, try the hanger steak, it was amazing!
