    Smash burger,  French Fries
    Udeme U.

    I am from the heights and I was looking forward to the burger place. However, I was very disappointed with the outcome. The fries just looked like it was frozen and ready made. It was soggy. The burger was okay but lacked seasoning. I just felt like I wasted money especially since it was for a group of 5. This was for an uber eats order so I can't say much about ambience or service. I had the smash burger and my family had the heights burger but it definitely could have been improved with taste.

    Outdoor seating

    Employee stated that owner says that patrons can not sit in outdoor seating area unless also ordering pizza. Employee also stated that both businesses were owned by the same owner, as obviously stated by the name of both "separate establishments". I wonder what would have happened if my guest and I would have just ordered our burgers and sat down without politely asking if it was okay? Maybe a pizzeria would've helped at your previous Audobon location with this motto. ‍. Must be some real good business.....

    Solid delivery satisfaction with Burgers, Shakes and Fries! In pre-COVID, I have been to this location but my latest review is based on two deliveries via Uber Eats in October 2021z Food: The quality of the burgers is always high in my experience with Burger Heights with quality ingredients and cooking. The four different burgers were all tasty and I like the option to customize my orders as needed. Overlook Burger for $8.99 made with Swiss Cheese, Grilled Mushroom, Grilled Onions, and Heights Sauce. The Impossible Burger for $14.99 made with 100% Plant - Base Burger, Vegan American Cheese, Raw Onion, Lettuce, Tomato, and Ketchup. Amsterdam Burger for $9.89 made with Cheddar Cheese, Guacamole, Lettuce, Tomato, Chipotle. The Wordsworth Burger for $9.49 made with Swiss Cheese, Grilled Pineapple, Ham, Tomato, Lettuce, and BBQ sauce. My favorite burger was the Wordsworth! The pineapple added a nice flavor. The impossible burger is good but pricey. We ended the burgers with fries half regular and half sweet potato for each order which was nice to compliment the burgers. Shakes: The very thick shakes are always a good match to a good burger so I have enjoyed a variety of shakes here. Cookies & Cream, Black & White, Strawberry, and Dulce de Leche for $7.99 each. My favorite flavor was Dulce de Leche. The cookie and cream had chunks of cookies which was a nice touch. Packaging: From the two deliveries, we had a great experience with everything in order with condiments and napkins. It is always important to have your shake as soon as possible especially to get the best taste! Overall: As expected, Burger Heights delivers with solid food and drinks. It is great to have a local favorite in Washington Heights! Hope to order to soon again!

    I saw the burger sign and it drew my attention. Due to Covid this is strictly a takeout place with a walk up window. We ordered through the glass and stood in the little outdoor dining area while we waited for our food. I went with the audbon turkey burger and it was lighter than the normal burger. The turkey patty was still moist even though it was turkey. My coworker got the heights regular burger and enjoyed it. I also got the sweet potato fries and they were spot on. So good. I hope this place catches on and it gets busy. Covid doesn't help but when things open up even more they should get even more business. Good luck Burger Heights!

    Overlook burger and fries

    STILL THEE BEST BURGER IN THE CITY. I recently had the overlook sandwich it was my first time also had fries with the burger Burger heights is still banging before the pandemic and it's still good after the pandemic. Definitely worth the money

    Double cheeseburger with PAPER left in the sandwich
    Chandy S.

    This spot delivered us a double cheeseburger with what looked like either the cheese wrapping paper or the paper that's used to separate meat patties still on. Ridiculous. When we called, they made no effort to apologize for their mistake. They blamed Postmates. Ridiculous. We reminded them that they cooked the burger, and should have noticed that there was PAPER left on the burger. They still took no responsibility - not even an apology for a burger that we can't even finish. Ridiculous. Save your money and go someplace where customers are respected.

    Cold burger with unmelted cheese

    Picked up a to go order we ordered online. We were there to pick up before the pick up time given. It was ice cold when we got home. Both veggie burgers were cold in the center and cheese wasn't melted. When I called to tell them they said all they could do is replace it if we brought it back in. Do not recommend.

    Crispy, thick fries
    Hunter S.

    COVID 19 delivery. I got their basic Heights burger, with cheese, lettuce, and tomato. I added raw onion. You can add several toppings, from avocado to grilled onions to bacon. I ordered my burger medium and it was cooked appropriately. Very juicy. The fries were thick and crispy! I ordered a hotdog with chili for later and suspect it will be just as good. Their Heights sauces reminds me of a higher level Big Mac sauce.

    Walked over to my fav location on Audubon yesterday and it was all closed up and locked? What happened ?? Very sad customer.

    Unfortunately, there was just not enough business to cover our overhead. 177 Wadsworth is doing fine and delivering down past 79 Audubon.

    My friend and I came to PJ Clarke's to watch the Knicks in the NBA Finals, and despite the…read moredisappointing outcome of the game, we had a great night. We were thrilled to find two seats at the end of the bar when we arrived. As luck would have it, the two gentlemen next to us eventually left, allowing us to slide over and enjoy an even better view of the TV for the rest of the game. I started with a Tito's and club soda, but unfortunately, something seemed off--perhaps the club soda was flat. The drink just wasn't good. To their credit, the bartender took it back without hesitation and was very accommodating. I then ordered a Negroni after the woman sitting next to us highly recommended it. I don't usually drink gin, but this cocktail was absolutely delicious and changed my mind. Since we were there for several hours, we shared an order of zucchini and eggplant chips and happily snacked on them throughout the game. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, with a nice mix of ages and people enjoying the evening. We made sure to leave our bartender a generous tip since we occupied our seats for the entire game. Even though the Knicks didn't pull out a win that night, we certainly didn't leave defeated. I'd happily return for another game, cocktail, and fun evening out. And maybe even get dinner there. Little did I know there was another big room in the ack once you past the restrooms. They were having a thriving business there!

He was constantly busy zippin around but maintained a nice demeanor and made everyone feel welcome! Must orders of mine: the burger! Although small, it comes out piping hot and the fresh white onion between the bottom bun and burger is awesome because it doesn't make the bottom bun soggy and catches all the juices from the actual meat. Love subbing the fries for a Caesar salad! Standout appetizer is the fried zucchini and eggplant with tzatziki-- crispy, hot, juicy and I get it every time!

    Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.

It featured a crispy, sugar-glazed exterior and a soft, chewy interior, topped with truffle cheese and served with a truffle butter dip; the pairing was superb, and it tasted great both on its own and with the dip. For the main course, I ordered the miso-glazed black cod. The flavor was flawless, and while the portion was small (which was acceptable), the pool of broth accompanying it was completely unnecessary; it was inedibly salty, so what was the point of serving it? After finishing the fish, I was left with a plate full of broth, rendering the plate unusable. Plus, it was overpriced; for this dish, you're better off going to Strip House Strip House remains the undisputed king of this dish in New York. A friend ordered the chicken parmesan. It was just average. Another friend ordered the short rib stroganoff. The flavor was decent, but it was far too rich and heavy. As someone whose palate is split 50/50 between Western and Chinese cuisine, I could manage only five bites at most. If you have a palate that prefers 100% Chinese food, proceed with caution on this dish. Friends ordered sides of mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. These are dishes originally meant for low-income Americans to fill up on cheaply; there's no limit to how good they can be, but also no floor to how bad they can get. Both were on par with the average quality found in upscale restaurants. Honestly, these are two dishes I would never order myself. To sum up: the atmosphere was great. It's also hard to get a reservation; the place was packed when we had lunch at 2 PM. Aside from that monkey bread, I didn't feel like anything else justified the price or offered something you couldn't find elsewhere. I don't quite get the hype. Perhaps I just didn't order the right dishes; maybe next time I'll try the burger and the steak.

It doesn't change what happened that first night, but it did change my impression of how much he cares about his guests and his business. I wanted my review to reflect that as well.
