Noodle Restaurant · Hell's Kitchen · 30 tips and reviews
Roxy B.: The food is the bomb diggity - make sure to get the OG chicken ramen and their grilled octopus- #yum
Patrick Lawson: Bruh. The pork belly bun was amazing. The noodles were alright.
Brian Strauss: Really good noodles of course. But it’s the, dare I say, fusion of Asian and European flavors that distinguish this place. Loved the lemon pepper lobster noodles and the Shishitos with romesco.
Michelle Mu: afternoon tea is delicious with a gorgeous view of central park
Lindsay: Not staying at the hotel? If they tell you there's a wait, just say that you finished dining at Asiate. You'll get a table in a snap. Otherwise, prepare to wait with the masses.
Candace Chang: Great view of Columbus Circle, perfect for afternoon tea on a Sunday. Really impressed with the ginger scones and the Oolong tea pairing. Love the spaciousness and high windows

Chris Patti: The rosemary infused Gin and Tonic is excellent, and the bar snacks are a nice mix :)
The New Yorker: "The menu has a post-Rainbow Room retro eye and a modern sensibility: there are six champagne cocktails, and a soulful King’s Old-Fashioned is rounded out with a wet walnut." Read more.

Nikki Beauchamp: I have this endearing (or annoying) need to try Mac and cheese anywhere I see it on the menu, it rocks here, and start with the crostini- fab selection of wines , great catch up spot with friends!
