First of all I've been talking up Au Za'atar since my first visit, have sent many friends their way…read moreand have gone a few times since my first meal. My most recent visit this month changed all that. I went with my son because we were in town. As it was the first place we knew we wanted to eat, I made a reservation well in advance and we showed up on time. It was noisier than usual and pretty hectic. We ordered a few appetizers and meals and a drink. No one ever checked in on us or refilled our water. I flagged someone down for to go containers as we wanted to save room for dessert and a second drink. They brought the containers and then we proceeded to sit again with no one checking in. We had been there for approximately 40-45 minutes total and were still waiting on someone to come back with the dessert menu when the host came to our table and said "there's a party with a reservation who needs tho is table so could you please leave soon?" Never has this happened to me. How insulting. When I expressed confusion stating we hadn't even received a check so why would we leave, rather than offer a proper apology and/or a "can we get you anything else?" She just said "oh that's not what I was told." And then a server brought us a check. I asked him if 45 minutes was the usual amount of time they give customers with dinner reservations and he said "I'm not sure. We're just really busy and probably overbooked." Again, no offer to make it right. Initially I wasn't going to leave this review. I reached out directly to the restaurant via email to tell them about the humiliating experience of being asked to leave when we weren't even done. Instead of offering to make it right (anything would have been appreciated - a dessert on the house next time - just some token indicating they valued me as a customer) they just explained that there was confusion and that they've talked to their staff so it doesn't happen to anyone in the future. Both the experience and the response put a horrible taste in my mouth and sadly I will probably not be back.

They're all really mean and kept me there before hitting The Tombs for nine hours (I was in The Tombs for only 7 hours. Total time detained: 16 hours). The seven hours I spent in there were pretty chill. There was enough space to sprawl out and eat an orange. I met some cool people who had some good stories. When I got out I had to go back to the Chinatown station house where I got my bullet belt back (I'm a punk and the only fashion these pigs know is Under Armour and Yankees sweatshirts so f them for judging my appearance) while none of them let me use a phone to call my friend to tell him I got out/was safe. I was ignored for most of that time. After leaving the precinct again it started downpouring and I was bummed.

I don't want this review to Drag on so I'm going to get right on with it…read more There's something very special about the dragon firefighters, and you can't really argue with a crew that has to deal with one of the oldest and most densely packed little neighbourhoods, and one so busy and bustling and so hard to navigate. They do a wonderful job and also manage to celebrate the culture and history and tourism of the neighbourhood, and while doing it they actually make themselves one of the many tourist attractions in Chinatown. Wonderful work from these wonderful people. And I'm deeply sorry to all the families and firefighters here who lost people in 9/11 and my thoughts and love is with you.

If you ever get the chance, talk to some of the firefighters here. They're really nice and will give you a history lesson if they have time.

I thought I did a review because it's been years since I visited. I was drawn to this business page because on this morning's news they said what they called the Firefighters Museum (and they said it is on Prince Street), was closed! They said it was closed indefinitely because of structural issues in the 120 year old building where the museum is housed. I've searched the web and this is the only museum I can find related Fire Departments and the history of Firefighters in NYC. I'm finally doing my review so you will check before you visit. This museum may be temporarily closed. I'm going to look for my additional photos to post. It's definitely an overdue review!

Our two-year-old Leo B. is obsessed with fire trucks, so we decided to take him to the NYC Fire…read moreMuseum last month while we were visiting New York. It was less exciting than I'd hoped--I guess I'd expected to see, I don't know, like one fire truck that looks like the ones in his books--but it was still a worthwhile stop, and he enjoyed himself quite a bit. The museum is small, housed in an old fire station in Hudson Square, with exhibits spread out across a couple of floors. You enter and exit through the gift shop, which is also where you purchase tickets. The guy at the register was very nice, and we bought three adult tickets (mom, dad, grandma) at $10 apiece, all so the little one, whose ticket was "free," could enjoy fifteen minutes roaming among the firefighting artifacts. I think we were the only visitors the entire time we were there. We saw a handful of old fire engines spread out between the two floors, and these were pretty cool, and Leo recognized them as fire trucks of sorts and enjoyed looking at and discussing their big wheels. He was less interested in the smaller items, which would probably be intriguing to slightly older kids. We also kept him out of the 9/11 memorial room, which seemed less designed for boisterous toddlers than the rest of the place, but which we adults appreciated. I honestly think our kid's favorite part of the museum might have been the gift shop, where I discovered that my son understands the concept of buying things and taking them home. He wanted every fucking variant on a fire truck toy--squishy and plastic, small and large; ambulance, van, engine. We settled on a big fire truck with an extendable ladder, which is now one of his favorite toys. It was over $40 and one of the stickers started peeling off pretty immediately, but I do think it's reasonably solid quality. We bought the same one for a friend's two-year-old, as well as a soft toy for his baby sister, both of which went over well. We also got an FDNY T-shirt for Leo, so the museum made a decent amount of money off of us. I'm guessing we didn't see all there was to see, but as our two-year-old wasn't clamoring to learn about the fire department's history, I think we did things right. We had a pleasant visit at the NYC Fire Museum and would recommend it if you or your small ones are fascinated by firefighting.

Overall: 5 stars…read more Visited this Korean-inspired Asian fusion restaurant for the $45 restaurant week menu and was quite enthused by the innovative offerings the chef had to offer. The food excites the palette in new ways and is a worthwhile experience. I also appreciated the staff proactively reaching out to ensure in detail that various dietary constraints could be worked around. Yellowtail Crudo - Intriguing dish that has the contrast between the light levity of the white fish and citrus and the intensely umami chili. Chicken Yakitori - Deceivingly simplistic chicken skewers where all the technique is in the details, from the well trimmed asparagus to the light spice crumble that really elevate the flavor of the tender chicken. Berkshire Ribs - Super tender ribs that fall off the bone; I love the infusion of the truffle that persists not only in these ribs but when you first walk into the restaurant. Hibiscus Sorbet - Pretty dish that is well presented; however, the bowl is very slippery and the sorbet is an ice sphere that makes eating it difficult despite the pleasant herbaceous flavors.

I came here with a college friend on a Tuesday night back in November 2025. We had made…read morereservations online beforehand and were promptly seated once we arrived. Immediately I enjoyed the decor and vibe, though I occasionally questioned why such sad Joji songs played while we were eating. What stood out to as well was the service - my friend has allergies to shellfish and nuts, and when we inquired what menu items contained either, the server immediately whipped out a mini paper menu and marked which ones we're dangerous to eat on the spot which we were both very impressed by. I believe their best dish was the corn dumplings. I feel like I could've eaten 20 of them in one go. I would've traded every other dish for that if I were judging purely based on flavor. However, I really enjoyed the presentation of the other dishes, especially the beef ragu x rice cake. They were all gorgeously created, and I deeply admired the handiwork of the chef. I especially liked my dessert, which was both cute and delicious. Overall, next time I am in NY I want to come back for the corn dumplings and excellent service.
