As always, Marc Forgione does not disappoint. The chicken for two is an amazing share, the service is super professional and the restaurant is perfect for a romantic evening.

This restaurant is one of the best in New York, yet they consistently toy with the concept of haute cuisine. It's the fanciest casual restaurant you'll ever visit. So delicious!

Def get the kampachi tartare and have the button experience, it's mind blowing. The chili lobster app is phenom-dip all your bread in it. The ice cream cones dessert is the greatest bang for your buck

Kampachi tartare was a treat! starts off with a part of szechuan peppercorn that numbs your tongue & enhances the rest of the dish! the octopus that the chef prepared was unreal. highly recommend!

Yes the chile lobster and 10 minute cookies are amazing. The chicken for 2 is great but not exactly "can't miss." Instead of ordering, ask for an off menu chicken for 1 sized portion

Rustic and inviting, Forgione’s food is a mix of Italian cooking, French technique and a few Southeast Asian flavors. Get the juicy cooked-under-a-brick chicken and finish with the pumpkin soufflé.

Food definitely lives up 2 Iron Chef hype. Try the angnolotti app and strip steak. Full menu available at the bar. Give this joint a try as it is a superb dining experience.

The Chili lobster toast was delicious!!! It's MP so don't be surprise when the bill comes... Worth the $. The octopus was pretty good and the chicken dish was sooo juicy.

A Michelin star chef, Marc Forgione always scores high with us. If there's one fine dining spot to become a regular, it's here. The vibe is warm and welcoming. Nice spot to sit at the bar as well.

The lobster chili is one of the best meals I've ever had! It was perfect and I can't wait to order it again the next time I go!
Arminda Guillama-RodriguezFebruary 20, 2013
As everyone else has mentioned, the chicken under a brick is a "must order" (and I rarely order chicken!). Banana pecan pudding is also amazing, and the rotating specials are not to be missed!
Rachel KarnofskyAugust 16, 2013
Started with the lobster chili, kampachin and eggplant ravioli (all a must). But just when we thought we were heading into a food coma.. we came, saw and conquered that mother effin' chicken!

The chili lobster is to die for! You have to try it.
Edward SanockiNovember 26, 2017
Start with the Hiramasa; you can also go for the Notkitoti with Shishitos Peppers—all superb! For your main course, the chicken for two is heavenly.
Susie BarkerSeptember 14, 2013
If you're a breast man, this is your place. I never knew chicken breast could be so amazingly delicious and so perfectly prepared - not ordering the chicken here is a crime!
KrisNovember 12, 2013
The tasting menu will leave you full! Lobster chilli is a must! Ask for extra toast! You'll thank me later :)

This TriBeCa restaurant is all about Giants. Their chef Forgione is a big fan. The "Iron Chef" winner has created a special a la carter pub menu that includes football favorites with Forgione twist.
Ross KatzJune 23, 2012
Amazing Chili Lobster. Occasionally they will be offering the collar of a particular fish as a special. When they do, GET IT!
Lori LuoAugust 10, 2014
The Chicken Under a Brick is generously portioned for two, and comes with broccoli rabe, Yukon potatoes, and plenty of pan drippings to share.
HeatherOctober 16, 2011
Delicious!& the wine yummie!Great friendly staff chef came over & took a pic with my friend after I asked the waiter and told him today is her bday.Great times.Again def. The spaghetti "start" amazing
Stephanie MorenoJanuary 13, 2012
Their Chicken Under a Brick is simply one of best things I've eaten. Splurge on $36 Black Truffle shavings. Cocktails are tasty. brunch? order "the sandwich". It is loud, so don't go with low talkers.
Sandro PuglieseJuly 7, 2017
Tomahawk ribeye and lobster Texas toast were amazing. Offmenu burger also delicious but only available at the bar

Great neighborhood spot, all dishes are creative, chili lobster app is awesome and the chicken under a brick never fails.

Best meal in NYC. Kampachi is amazing. The tomahawk steak is ridiculous. The brick chicken is crazy good. And the service is just as good!
Durga UsagiSeptember 18, 2011
one of our fav places to go!!!! we have had almost EVERYTHING on the menu and are NEVER disappointed!!! sum of the YUMMIEST deserts in the city IMO. GOTTA try chicken under a brick!!!
HOBNOB MagazineFebruary 21, 2011
Oyster shooters, the black pepper-meyer lemon emulsion on striped bass...rustic, homey space with great cocktails, see photos here from my night: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=136452&id=76563

Forgione is fantastic. If you could only go to one dining experience in NYC, this is the place. Brick chicken, chili lobster. Do it.
Adrienne LiuSeptember 5, 2019
Must get the chili lobster. And the warm, perfectly melty chocolate chip cookies were surprisingly some of the best I’ve had.
TerezApril 28, 2014
Loved the food! Big careful when they give u a number ticket to pick up leftovers/"doggy bag" at front desk. They gave me someone else's food :/

Service, staff, and fit out are all excellent. The kitchen doesn't seem to care how you ask for your meal to be prepared. The chef seems to just cook it any f&@=kin' way he chooses.

Honestly, the best - and most unpretentious - restaurant in New York City.
sue qMarch 15, 2015
Great hamachi and kampachi! Norwegian cod yummy ! Cozy!
Rebecca YiJuly 11, 2016
Long overdue - food is def memorable and atmosphere is very romantic. Def recommending taking that special someone on a date here.
Mary Ann CaramOctober 14, 2010
Be sure to save room for dessert. You can't go wrong with the Peanut Butter Terrine, but the Honey Apple Crisp (made with apples from local producer Red Jacket Orchards) is delicious as well.
Jane DongDecember 23, 2014
You have to get the kampachi tartare. For dessert - S'mores and Pumpkin soufflé.
Inna GSeptember 6, 2023
The fish tar tar and the halibut was amazing. Great drinks, vibe, service
Ase1707July 7, 2015
The brook trout is as amazing as it is unusual. Served on a smoking piece of cedar, the smokey aroma enhances the dish and the result is something not to be missed.

It’s an earthier take on weekend brunch here where New York’s reigning Iron Chef turns out thick waffles with fried quail and an ingenious “Eggs Benny.” Featured in Where to Eat 2011! Read more

Don't visit without trying the brick chicken, cooked until golden atop broccoli rabe and crispy potatoes. It's almost as good as the barbecued oysters with Cajun béchamel.
Wendy QiuMarch 7, 2015
Brunch on Sunday 18 for bottomless mimosas! Love the biscuits served before the meal.
Kelsey AndersonJune 5, 2019
Crudo appetizer, lobster, and chicken under a brick we’re all fantastic!
Rose SteinbergJune 9, 2013
Amazing food, fantastic service. The kampachi appetizer is a must! As is the chili lobster. :-)
Julie EschbacherAugust 3, 2013
Two musts: lobster chili and chicken under the brick for two. Out of this world good!

The baby halibut in proposal sauce is the stuff dreams are made of. The deep fried skeleton is novel, but besides the point. Don't let the price tag discourage you!
James G.March 23, 2019
Yellowtail app, ricotta cavatelli, chicken under a brick and 10 minute cookies
Dessi VolpicelliJuly 22, 2017
The hirsmasa tartar and black bass were extra special; the wine choice was spectacular

Marc Forgione is the “Next Iron Chef” and the mohawked chef-owner of the much-lauded restaurant that bears his name. Forgione offers a concise menu of ingredient-driven, unabashed preparations.
Thøger AmundsenOctober 15, 2019
Chicken for two is out of this world. Combine it with the Bronx Pale 👍
George HainesJune 8, 2010
Black chick pea salad- dope. Bell and Evans Chicken was terrific. Sangria was perfect. Jason, the server was cordial, funny and attentive. A tad pricey for me, but worth it!
