The food here is amazing. I can't believe this place wasn't packed. It should be. Cocktails are glorious, and the food is out of this world. I had the bison tartare, blew my mind. Cookies and cream dessert will blow your socks off. Highly recommend if you are in the area... and I don't recommend much, read more

Had the loviest dinner at Arvine on a random Monday night. We started with the Semolina bread, it had a super smooth ricotta spread with some honey that really brought everything together. The cheese anolini was just delicious, it really taste just like a French onion soup dish in the best way possible. The Wagyu cheeseburger was cooked to perfection and super delicious but the star for me was truly the horchata ice cream, the way I could have that every single night for the rest of my life? Not to mention the service was lovely and made me feel right at home. We ended up here in the spur of the moment but cannot wait to come back! read more

The service was fantastic! We went for brunch with a big group, and we all agreed that the staff was incredibly accommodating. They answered all of our questions, made sure everyone was taken care of, and were even able to get us a dinner menu item during brunch. Every dish we ordered was great, but I can't recommend the bison tartare and Turkish eggs enough. The sesame bread served alongside the Turkish eggs was so good. Definitely recommend this spot for brunch if you're visiting with a big group. read more

Visited Arvine for restaurant week and it did impress. I was a little worried that the portions wouldn't be filling, but they were. I want to especially sing praises to the milk and cookies - we need to start putting sesames on cookies more! Such a wonderful ending to the meal. read more

Arvine is a terrific new spot in the West Village. The food is creative and delicious. The service is excellent, professional yet friendly. The ambience is great for a local spot. The wine list is epic, both the by the glass and bottle list. Arvine is a bit of a sleeper, but word of mouth is hopefully going to start to generate a buzz. Go now while you can still get a reservation. read more

The service is nearly Michelin star quality. The food is extremely flavorful and abundant. The porter house is amazing. With many sides to boot. The steak tartar is very flavorful and can't be missed. The cocktails are first rate and always balanced. The style is low key luxury, makes you feel comfortable. read more

Arvine - Starters - American Near Me - New York, New York

Expect a price point of about $120/person for dinner and a drink (tax and tip included in this price point). However, the main entrees on both the restaurant week menu and main menu were a miss. The signature appetizer grass fed bison tartare with gochujang comes with the oiliest bread slices and that alone is enough of a meal. The cured seabass bass with watermelon granita (shaved watermelon icy) was ehhh. The squid ink pappardelle (flat noodle) pasta was a bit salty and rubbery. Maybe too much egg and over cooking or drying out due to the salt or old pasta?! Regardless, it was not satisfying. The coffee braised pork shoulder is literally pulled pork (a bit too dry) with radish and black beans that were under cooked with a tough bite. The three crepe tortillas that came with it were more a bit dry and broke apart easily. If you intend on coming here, go for the bison tartare, and skip the other items. read more

We didn't start out the night planning to dine at Arvine but sometimes you can't control where the vibes blow you. Arvine has the benefit of a prime location so it's likely many people will stumble upon it or, put more accurately, find themselves intrigued while walking past and before they know it they'll be retracing their steps and find themselves at a table deep into the menu. Or maybe that's just me. In any case, Arvine has the makings of a great neighborhood restaurant. Very good American food with enough whimsy to keep it interesting but not so wacky that it's unapproachable. A welcoming energy and good for pretty much any type of occasion. In between mainstays like Olio e Piu and Rosemary's, I imagine Arvine is likely to get a lot of traction when people start to catch on to what it's about. We came here at around 8:30pm on a Saturday night. We had planned on going somewhere else but on the way walked past Arvine, which had a warm glow to it that drew me in. I had read about its opening recently so it had name recognition for me, but seeing it in the flesh had me intrigued. As we walked up to the spot we planned on eating at I had this urge to call an audible so we returned to Arvine as a walk-in and were able to sit within five minutes. They were almost too friendly and accommodating -- they were probably just happy to have good traffic in their first few weeks open but it was to the point that their graciousness and appreciation started to become overwhelming for us as patrons. But of course, I would rather be appreciated as a patron than the other way around, so I should be careful what I complain about! Anyway, as soon as we sat down with our menus, we knew we had made the right decision. I'm not sure if it's the design, decor, lighting, staff, or some combination but the energy here is fantastic. Refined but relaxed and fits in well with the area. Drink-wise, they have a fun list of cocktails alongside an impressive wine list. We started out with a round of cocktails and then each tried a glass of wine. I first got the Cellar Door (nordes gin, fermented carrot jus, aalborg, blanc vermouth), a particularly vegetal martini variation that was a little unusual but not in a way that took away from the food. My partner got the Absinthe Swizzle (absinthe, vodka, black plum, jacquere, carob, sarsaparilla) which comes in a tall glass with pebble ice, not usually my type of drink but I loved it. The wines were solid though a little less memorable. Food-wise, we were more attracted to the small plates so got an assortment of those plus one main. A lot of variety on the menu, though I can't say there's necessary an organizing concept/theme. Overall, the preparations were as fun and creative as they were delicious. Eats, below: Pickled Fennel and Basil Salad w/ applewood smoked bacon, toasted almonds: A+ One of the meal's highlights for me. Fennel always seems to be an underrated veggie so I appreciate seeing it highlighted here in peak season. Citrus Cured Fish Crudo w/ fermented farro, cucumber vinaigrette: A- Though I'm only writing this review five days after the meal, the essence of this dish is not readily coming back to me. I remember that we both enjoyed it but it was definitely the least memorable of the bunch. Grass-Fed Bison Tartare w/ calabrian chile "gochujang", house einkorn focaccia: A My partner and I are both relatively picky when it comes to beef/bison tartare so we rarely order it. That said, I read enough rave reviews beforehand that we had to try it. I tend to trust my fellow foodies. And in this case, they did not lead us astray. This preparation was thoughtful in conception and very well-executed, with great savory/umami elements and the hint of heat that's always a hit in beef/bison tartare dishes. Butternut Squash Grits w/ kohlrabi-pine nut caponata, stracciatella: A We tacked this one on at the end because we ordered a little light to start. I was surprised that this even piqued my interest because I tend not to like grits because of the texture. Though the texture was still what you'd expect, the dish as a whole was kind of genius in that it made no sense to me but the flavors were fantastic. I love kohlrabi and once again I can give Arvine props for using what's in season. Roasted Golden Tilefish w/ leeks vinaigrette, hazelnuts, champagne sauce: A The one main we ordered, which was melt in your mouth good. The fish was buttery and cooked to perfection and the sauce was just heavenly. Tilefish has a touch of sweetness to it that other white fish varieties don't, the flavors here really complemented in beautifully. Close to five stars, but I reserve that rating for spots that blow me away at every turn, so let's say it's a strong 4.5. read more

This place was truly a treat. From the the entire staff bartender and waitress were were excellent. Now the food we started with the PICKLED FENNEL & BASIL SALAD and OYSTERS which were excellent. My wife had the ROASTED GOLDEN TILE FISH and I had the IBERIAN DUROC PORK CHOP. Both outstanding however the pork chop was on another level. Perfectly cooked the sweet potato puree was amazing which there was more. The place is totally chill very nice decor and was one of the best places we have went to in NYC. Will be back and if they are as good as the first visit this will be a 5 star. Stay tuned. read more

What a find! Imaginative menu, knowledgeable waiter who took the time to explain and help us (party of 7) decide and delicious meals in a cozy space. Two of us chose the four course fixed price, which featured a sampling of apps and desserts, and choice of several entrees with a couple of surprise extras from the chef. Every single dish was delicious no kidding. Top off with super last minute accommodating staff and it's a solid 5 star. Go! PS ask for Joe Anthony. read more

I was here for a business dinner. This place is impressive. The ambiance with all exposed bricks is so cozy and elegant at the same time. From the time you enter they take care of you. The food is spectacular. We got some appetizers as the yellow tail, the scallops, hummus, ricotta balls, and the tartare. All dishes were amazing. The best is the yellow tail, a kind of ceviche very fresh with orange. Amazing dish. The bison tartare maybe was not as expected. I think the Parmesan on top covers the meat taste too much. Also too spicy for me. The main was amazing. Pork chop well cooked. Beef cheeks soft enough served with black lentils, cabbage, and a Mexican salse. Very good. Kings fish also good and well cooked. read more

I booked this place and had high hopes for an amazing dinner. The place looks cozy, and warm. In some ways, this place shows lots of promise, but in others - hmm.. Right from the start I was greeted and made to feel welcome. Great staff, but maybe following up too many times for my personal liking. The drinks were great, and the apps as well. We had the bison tartare and scallops. I had high hopes for the steak. The steak for 2 - I'm not sure what cut it was, but the texture was kinda off. The sauce was tasty, but the meat itself was more rare than medium rare... we didnt send it back, - so thats my bad. The side dish - I'm not even sure what that was - rice? it was undercooked - and some interesting spicing choices were made. (they need to improve on their steaks and 86 the side dish). I literally had to spit it out. read more

Four stars for the service alone. From the hostess to the servers and bussers, everyone was super friendly and welcoming. The bartender made an excellent gin and tonic in a very tall glass so kudos there too. Food was a bit mixed but the good was the babaghanoush with hot pita and the pickled fennel salad. Unfortunately the flank steak was tough and chewy and needed more salt but the broccoli rabe underneath it was great. I'd return but skip the steak. read more

Arvine was such an exquisite dining experience and worth every bite We started off with the bison tartare, hippie caesar (it will be hard to go back to a standard Caesar now), pickled fennel salad (one of my top bites ever), and the crudo. Everything was truly above and beyond delicious. For entrees we split the wagyu smash burger and pork chop which were unbelievable, and finished off with the panna cotta and worms in dirt. We sat in the front room which was so warm and inviting and a had a beautiful view of the Jefferson Market Gardens. I cant wait to come back and could not recommend it enough. read more

New York dining is back baby!! Great vibes all around: Food was fantastic (Fennel Salad, King Crab and Squid Ink Risotto, GrandMa Pasta Bolo, Miso Coconut Chocolate Milkshake..) and Hospitality (service) unmatched.

My wife and I had an amazing dinner at Arvine last evening. We shared a number of outstanding appetizers highlighted by the bison tartare, the littleneck clams, and the chestnut ravioli. We had the charred kingfish for our entree which was done perfectly and paired nicely with a bottle of Sencere. I finished with the orchard fruits streusel, a nicely portioned finis The service was attentive without feeling that the waitstaff was hovering. read more

Just had a really outstanding dinner at Arvine in Chelsea! Warm, intimate setting with friendly, attentive service (but not overbearing). The clams were truly spectacular, but we also enjoyed the bison tartare, and kingfish entree. 5 stars for this place- we'd go back every week if we could. read more
