Mari B: Was here once before excited to return. I’m not sure I will be back though. Loved the eggplant dip and the halibut but the noise level is now where you can’t hear the person sitting next to you.
Michael Anthony: Braised lamb, pita and labneh w/ grilled bread were amazing. Definitely with checking out.
The New Yorker: “Glasserie’s convivial ethos feels in keeping with the way we like to eat now: gone is the three-course meal, and, instead, appetizers become entrées, and back again, all of it customizable.” Read more.

pipitu: The best salad I've had in a restaurant: dressing, olives, mozzarella, peppers. Everything is so good!
J Crowley: Bolognese is a must. Some of the best I've ever had. Get a quartino of multipulciano too. Parpadelle with short rib ragu is a close second.

Travis Statham: Really fresh meat here. Steaks and pork chops, burgers, and swordfish is great. Rotisserie chickens are an easy ten dollar meal. #carnivore
Turner Roach: With succinct shopping list in hand, hustle through the narrow crowded store stopping for: the olive bar, the cheese case, the myriad of salsas & chips, and the hundreds of varieties of honey and jell
David Hitchings: Coffee bean selection is decent; Check the roasted date, the newer beans will be at the back.

Elly Han: Amazing food and view! Best place for the special day!
The New York Times: One of the city’s best views, and excellent food still, after all these years. A sunset reservation’s best, with rabbit and dumplings.

Nikki C-B: California wrap with sweet potato fries. Awesome!
Betty Lianna-Jeweler: I loved having the Belgian Waffle Split, which is topped with ice cream, banana, and whipped cream, then some maple syrup. This diner serves solid and tasty food.
Dorice C.: The breakfast menu is the best..I've tried other diners & in my opinion, nothing beats The New Apollo...we've been coming here so long, everyone know us...the staff is so courteous and friendly...
