- Sam PezzulloNovember 5, 2013A classic New York City spot, great for business casual lunches. The atrium makes for a great dining experience! The Cobb salad and the calamari are great. Pair with the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.Upvoted Aug 25
- The Corcoran GroupJuly 31, 2014Great for brunch or dinner, and it's always worth it to grab a table on the patio if it's nice out. If you're dining here for dinner, definitely order the sea bass.
- Hans HauptJuly 2, 2013The Grand Marnier Marinated Duck Breast & Confit Leg was sublime. The duck was succulent & filled with a delectable orange flavour. The crepe had hints of cinnamon & complemented the duck perfectly.
- Elizabeth BursteinSeptember 28, 2021Great service - beautiful atmosphere. I had a rose and israeli salad which was def more of an appetizer portion. Brady had the steak frites.
- Martin SlusarzJanuary 4, 2015Restaurant has a pleasant ambience with seating for parties of all sizes. Menu has wide range of options priced reasonably. Char grilled tenderloin was excellent as was service. Will go again!
- Marie La RueJuly 13, 2021Visit in the summertime to enjoy this little oasis in the heart of Midtown. Convenient location in Bryant Park. Mix of tourists and business lunches.
- KarenJuly 23, 2018Super conveniently located inside Bryant Park for stellar views. The upstairs bar doesn't get too crowded. The drinks are pricier due to the added value of being in the park.
- Mike FriedlichNovember 19, 2016Grilled Chicken Sandwich w/Avocado & chipotle mayo is amazing. They give you two pieces of chicken. Cobb salad is also great.
- TaylorJune 18, 2012Protip: get a table on the roof. It's a great view of Bryant Park and can be less crowded than inside or the patio.
- Tommy DodgeMay 17, 2013They have couscous salad with lobster on the menu, but the better idea is to order the vegetarian quinoa cherry wheat salad, and then have them add the lobster!!
- ℳ𝒶𝓎♍March 28, 2018Bryant Park Grill is a midtown staple. It's upscale but not pretentious or absurdly expensive. Dishes are sort of hit or miss & vegan entrees are scarce. Portions were really small but still worth it!
- SJuly 24, 2015They open for brunch at 11.30 👌🏼 nice terrace seating area .. Shakshooka is very good.
- Eli ShererJanuary 26, 2020Great brunch overlooking Bryant Park. Expect large portions. A bit loud if sitting in the middle of the room. Window tables are nice.
- Mark DurneySeptember 1, 2013Great outdoor bar. Just close enough to the public library to feel like you're getting some culture and intellectual stimulation while downing vodka tonics out of plastic cups.
- GizemFebruary 21, 2013Definitely recommend it for business meeting. Great service even for lunch time. I've had the salmon and the chocolate cake both delicious.
- Rachel KAugust 24, 2014Please emphasize more how much I'm supposed to tip you. Jesus, can you be more passive aggressive? Good outdoor seating, lackluster service and food.
- Jorge CazzorlaJune 3, 2013One of the amazing venues in NYC for a wedding or event celebration. The food, the service and the attention to details.
- Angelina ZeppieriJune 3, 2015delicious food! we had the lamb kebabs and a salad to start, the seafood tartar was excellent
- ✰ David Mathison ✰March 3, 2012Nice stop after walking/studying in the NYC Public Library. Beautiful 4-season view of Bryant park in summer and ice skating in winter
- Christine SmithJuly 10, 2013The nearby outdoor public restrooms are the nicest in the city. Lines are often long with tourists, but worth it. So clean.
- Nataly TituninaNovember 23, 2019No way. Hostess and food terrible. Fish cooked from frozen stuff! Red wine in small cheap glassesInside design (left, in building side) is cozy and nice.
- Denis SosnovtsevMay 11, 2014There's outdoor seating facing Bryant Park, so a great place to go for outdoor brunch if it's nice out.
- Mike M.November 12, 2014Decent place for lunch in the area. I was, however, surprised when my chicken Caesar salad came out as a salad and a side of chicken.
- Young CDecember 3, 2013Jumbo lump crab cakes, persimmon frisée salad, sashimi tuna tacos are all solid choices! Yum!
- Their burratta salad is like heaven in your mouth 👌
- Mila MilaAugust 15, 2014All lunch sandwiches are served with watermelon which really add a nice touch for the summer!
- Deniz DorbekMay 16, 2023Nothing is good about this place except the park view..I returned my mashy risotto and ordered Chicken cobb and fries. Fries came super soggy and the salad was just ok. Don’t ever try, tourist trap…!
- DoubleDeuceMarch 15, 2019Service, price and setting fit for a New York City tourist but the location is definitely the value here.
- ShelleyApril 21, 2013For dessert try the Bananas for Bananas. Incredible! I also had the quinoa salad that I don't recommend.
- Carolyn ForgetJanuary 27, 2013Good food, classic New York ambiance, next to the NY public library. Beautiful winter here!
- A respite from the armpit of Manhattan. Great menu and super friendly bartenders. This is not a tip..just sayin'
- The food is excellent. Haven't had a bad meal. However the service has gotten pretty bad the last couple of times here. Service seems to be heading downhill.
- Leigh AnneJuly 29, 2012The free dessert with a pic of a bird was a nice treat. Beautiful restaurant, reasonably priced, great dinner.
- F PatteApril 21, 2012The Grilled Hanger steak has really good flavor! Frozen margarita is made with just enough kick. Enjoy!
- MaryRose KopchinskyAugust 13, 2013Quinoa salad was awesome!!!! Also must try tomato and mozzarella appetizer!!!!!
- David ADecember 2, 2014Tremendous venue with a view of the park. Great place to meet for a drink. Food is mediocre unfortunately.
- Mary Elise ChavezSeptember 24, 2011Great fare, cocktails and ambiance but beware the aggressive vultures that like to swarm, then attack. Pretending to speak another language usually helps.
- Christina BerginDecember 16, 2016Wait staff is friendly. And the wait wasn't long considering it was the middle of December.
- Irina PerfectMarch 5, 2012The oysters were orgasmic. I was pleasantly surprised. Great place for fancy lunch.
