    Theater Steak
    Jordan C.

    I really enjoyed the ambience of this restaurant. It was already decorated for Christmas and I can tell closer to the holiday it will get even more festive and beautiful inside. We had a reservation secured before our show, and we ordered the steak and the salmon. Both were delicious. We started with the Burrata and fig arugula salad, which I managed to snap a photo of it only after half was gone, I would definitely order that again. The 10 ounce steak was a large portion and came with a peppercorn sauce on the side. It was delivered perfectly cooked to our liking. The salmon was also a good portion and truffle mashed potatoes. Yum. Roasted carrots were delicious and came on both of our plates. I would recommend the spot for a pre-dinner show because they do have a prefix theater menu and it's centrally located in Midtown to all of the theaters. I wish we would had room for dessert. Next time!

    This is an extra large space that's great for groups. Me and my family came here after seeing a show on Broadway. We did not have reservations but since it wasn't crowded we was seated. The hostess was nice and I loved the 2piece she was wearing! We sat in the back but there is a full bar area also with good seating. There are a few places for a photo opts as well. The wait staff was pleasant and quick. There was no complaints about. Everything was delicious and cooked exactly like everyone like. The steaks were seasoned and tender. The shoestring fries were a touch over done for my taste. Thats 16layer cream cake was sooooo good very delicious and not too sweet. The churros also nice hot and fresh. The drinks were also good a nice balance of alcohol to chaser. Overall A+ I would come back!

    We had reservations for lunch and enjoyed everything about it. The reservations were easy, the Christmas decorations were stunning and the food was delicious. I had the short ribs and it was great.

    Review during holidays!! I think the decor made it a worthwhile stop regardless of how hungry you are. Decor - 5/5! So much Christmas!! It was really beautifully done and completely over the top. We didn't get them ourselves but the festive drinks were really cute! Pricey but I definitely understand the fun. Food 3/5. Arancini was a 4/5, could have used more sauce and were pretty small. French onion soup 3/5, stale bread chunk and overall a very savory flavored soup, not the best I've had. Arrived not hot. Burger was a 4/5. Service 3/5. They were understaffed but overall the service was pretty slow and multiple items were left off our order and we had to ask twice for items like ketchup. Overall would return for the Christmas decor but wouldn't come starving & would have ordered less food.

    Walk in and get ready to OOOOOOO and AWEEEEE! The ambiance was stunning.... just jaw dropping! What a truly lovely place. Fun Fact: I danced with Lauren Bacall at my BFF'S wedding on top of the World Trade Center, Windows of the World, and we jammed to "Working at the Car Wash when she was 76 years old. Needless to say, I was so excited to come to this place which is a beautiful tribute to her. It didn't dissapoint. The waiters, bussers and hostess were sensational. The bussers stand nearby, with undivided attention, just waiting for your next need. The service was impeccable. They did not rush us. They were warm and friendly -- nothing snooty or uptight here. I loved the food - and the homemade pasta didn't disappoint. The chandeliers that we dined under made the evening magical. I loved how they delivered our check in an old book, printed in 1902! The place is done very creatively and their menu is as well. THE MUSIC creates the incredible vibe. WE LOVED every song, mostly beautiful sentimental oldies.... that warmed our hearts. The sign on their blue awning is a little hard to find, just look for the long line at Carmines, and this beautiful haunt is next door. I highly recommend that you try this little gem in the Theater District. It's very romantic!

    Bacall's in the heart of Times Square is the perfect spot for after-work drinks during happy hour or dinner before catching a Broadway show! With so many dinner-and-a-show options in the city, Bacall's truly stands out as one of the best. Right now, the restaurant is fully decked out for the holiday season, which makes the experience even more festive. The food is amazing there's so many options but we have to highlight their charcuterie board (so delicious!) and the pasta, which tastes light and homemade. Whether you're looking for festive vibes, great food, or a convenient location for a pre-show meal it's perfect for the occasion.

    It took so much for me to get a reservation and I was so happy to secure one! Once I arrived at around noon on a Friday to find the place pretty empty. I was sat immediately upstairs and it took very long for my order to be taken, even for drinks. I decided to take pictures of all the decor after all that's what I came for and I was very impressed. Everything is beautifully decorated. Once my order was taken it also took a bit of time to come out. The salad was overly dressed to the point it was soggy, as if they made it in a big batch and let it sit. The fried chicken was cooked well it just wasn't seasoned enough, however the side of honey saved it but it definitely needed a sauce or seasoning. The fried were my favorite part of the entire meal! Cooked very well and crispy. The drinks were expensive and not good at all. The hot chocolate was made with water literally no cream or milk. The other drink had barely any liquor and was 20$ the whole meal was over 100$. Wasn't worth the food or service but the photos make it worth it

    This place is a total GEM! Literally the best rigatoni vodka I've had in the city and I eat a lot of pasta lol everything was incredible from our service to the drinks ! The decor inside is absolutely beautiful, and the drinks come in stunning containers, such as a margarita inside of a small, patron bottle ! We got the big bottle, totally worth it ! meatballs were tender & the wings were so so tasty! Loved the rib eye with the mashed potatoes as well and let's not forget dessert . Japanese soufflé cheesecake and 16 layer cream cake, amazing and delicious dishes

    This place is absolutely stunning !! They have the most beautiful swing adorned with flowers that makes for the BEST photo op !! The food is soooooo good too the calamari was super crispy and perfectly cooked my absolute faveee!! It is truly at the top of my list of all time favorites

    I went here after a play and had a great time!! Erica, the bartender, was amazing. She was friendly, easy to talk to, and her drinks were great. The drinks are a but pricey...but it just so happened I went during their 2 for 1 HH so it eased the pocket pain..lol. I was a bit surprised that my Moscow Mule wasn't served in the traditional copper mug, but it was still good. But, the Passionfruit Margarita was the star. I ordered the Bucharest pasta. It was delicious!! If you're looking for a nice restaurant to go to before or after hitting a play, go check them out. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    We ate here before a show. We had to eat super early so the place wasn't busy. We had to change reservation times because the cab was late but they accommodated no problem. The waitstaff was friendly and conversational. It was a new menu apparently and she admittedly didn't know much about it. The menu is rather small which makes it risky with picky teenagers. We all found something to eat. The food was brought out timely and we all enjoyed it. What stands out to me is how big the place was for being in such a prime location near Times Square. It was also decorated in a cool way. They had some picture taking spots in the restaurant. They even honored my Yelp checkin for a glass of Prosecco.

    An eclectic mix of vintage b/w photos, knickknacks, books, statuettes and miscellaneous historical items. Elaborate mirrored chandeliers, decorative swing, and dangling flowers. Background pop music was loud at first, but turnef down later. Service was nice. Prices were varied. As I checked in on Yelp, I got a complimentary drink! We had 3*glass of prosecco: nice sparkling wine; I think it was champagne 4.5*Lobster Stuffed Baked Trout Broccolini, Roasted Potatoes: tender and tasty, big portions but didn't feel stuffed. A bit greasy. 4*Nova Egg-Poached Egg, Smoked Salmon, Avocado, English Muffin: pretty good.

    Bacall's is magnificent!! In the heart of the theater district, this interior is gorgeous and has such a great and cozy vibe that is perfect for any occasion! Every single sip and bite we had was insane and the service was actually impeccable. It was one of the best meal experiences I have had in NYC in a long time, and they just gained another regular! It's a no brainer to add to your NYC list.

I was warmly greeted by the gentleman at the door (5 service there), which set a great first impression. However, as soon as I walked downstairs, it felt like the space had lost its speakeasy vibe. I was seated right near the stairs and could feel cold air from outside every time the door opened, which made the experience uncomfortable. I was also surprised to see how much the cocktail menu had been reduced. When I asked about it, the response was that "the place changed a lot." That's fair -- places evolve -- but instead of highlighting the improvements or new strengths, the explanation focused negatively on what the bar used to be. As someone who really enjoyed the former version, that wasn't reassuring. Unfortunately, the drinks themselves didn't make up for it. One of the two cocktails was simply not good. No one came back to check on the drinks, and when I asked for the check after about 20 minutes, there was no acknowledgment that I had barely touched mine or any inquiry about my experience. Overall, a place I once enjoyed and recommended now feels more like a standard dive bar where " Mixologist " were replaced by bartender and were fun cool looking and tasty drinks were replaced by " less complex cocktail ", lacking the warmth and attention to detail that once made it special.

Lo and behold, she did have a table for us - as long as we were out in an hour and a half, which was just the right amount of time. Stepping into this place feels like you're in some secret, super special cocktail club. Decor is super high end, vibes are upscale AF.

The mint Moroccan tea gave the drink a cool, refreshing taste on every sip. I also tried the Silver Screen, the closest drink I could find to an old fashioned. It was interesting, there was definitely a hint of a buttery taste. Overall a really balanced bourbon drink. I walked in and found room at the standing tables. A bar seat eventually opened up but I was already on my second drink by then. Definitely make reservations if you're planning a visit!

We started with half a dozen oysters, which were fresh, briny, and exactly what you want with serious cocktails. Crisp, clean, gone in about three minutes. For drinks, we ordered the Smoke Show and the King Tusk. The Smoke Show was beautifully balanced. The Grey Goose vodka and Dolin Dry gave it that classic martini backbone, but the fino sherry and brine added depth. The smoked olive oil and blue cheese olive brought just enough savory drama without overpowering the glass. It was complex but not fussy. The King Tusk leaned more aromatic and layered. The vermouths gave it richness, while the Buddha's Hand and osmanthus flower added subtle citrus and floral notes that lingered in a really elegant way. It felt like a cocktail designed to be savored slowly. The music fit the mood perfectly, not too loud, just enough to give the room energy without killing conversation. Overall, it's a great spot if you want elevated drinks in a space that feels transportive without being pretentious. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm in the mood for a refined, slightly cinematic night out in Flatiron.
