Our family had such a magical time attending The Grandest Princess Ball Ever at Carmine's! We…read moredressed our daughter as Princess Anna from Frozen, and she absolutely stole the show. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt so special and full of excitement for the kids. The event itself was beautiful. The princesses were wonderful with the children, and everyone had the chance to dance, sing along, and even create Mother's Day cards together. Watching our daughter light up while interacting with the princesses truly made the day unforgettable. The desserts included with the tickets were mediocre. The entire experience created such sweet family memories that we'll cherish for a long time. We also decided to purchase the hot buffet, which included Caesar salad, mixed salad, penne alla vodka, penne with garlic & oil, chicken parm, chicken cutlet, meatballs, and sausage & peppers. The food overall was good, and there were plenty of options for everyone. The kids' drinks were complimentary, while alcohol was a separate charge. Our little princess loved her Shirley Temple with extra cherries, and I really enjoyed my Jameson and ginger ale. The Caesar salad was especially good with their homemade dressing, and the huge croutons definitely made an impression. Maybe a little over the top, but still tasty! I ended up slicing the chicken cutlet into the Caesar salad, and it was honestly phenomenal together. The chicken cutlet itself was flavorful and one of our favorite items. The penne alla vodka was also very enjoyable. Unfortunately, the chicken parm was very dry and lacked flavor. We also skipped the meatballs after being told they contained pork. In hindsight, I probably should have looked up the ingredients beforehand, but we decided to pass on them. The only downside of the experience was a misunderstanding regarding the buffet. I was approached by a waitress asking whether we had already spoken to someone about eating. I initially thought the buffet was included with our event tickets, but apparently it was separate. I must have missed that information pw, so I ended up purchasing meal tickets for my family on the spot. I just wish the interaction had been handled a little more warmly and clearly. Aside from that small issue, we genuinely had a wonderful time. The event was beautifully organized and full of joy, music, laughter, and magical moments for families. Seeing our daughter so happy made everything worth it, and it turned into such a memorable Mother's Day celebration for us all.

The steak was amazing, and all of the sides tasted fresh and were very well prepared. The drinks were also well made, and the desserts were honestly some of the best I tasted during my trip to New York City. Service was excellent and attentive throughout our meal. Gallaghers is located near Times Square, but don't let the location fool you, this is a legitimate classic New York steakhouse with great food and a lot of character. If you're visiting Manhattan and looking for a traditional, old-school NYC steakhouse experience, I would highly recommend Gallaghers. If you're looking for something trendy or ultra-modern, this probably isn't the place but that's exactly part of what makes Gallaghers special. Definitely a place I would return to on another trip to NYC.

Service was 10/10 over the top. Such kind and caring to everyone and also very timely so we weren't having to wait too long. Honestly the steak sauce was some of the best I ever had! Not the heavy AJ Steak sauce by itself but it has a sweet and savory tomato base as well further amplifying the taste. The smoked salmon was roast perfectly. I'd also recommend you get the clam chowder when you order the appetizers from the lunch set..it is a mix of regular clam chowder and vegetable stew so your getting essentially a mix of two in one dish. Dessert pie was the best in the world would recommend any time!! Had such a nice time and would definitely come back. Highly recommend for a great steakhouse experience in NYC!

I usually get the wonton soup with the jiaozi dumplings, and it's one of my favorite things on the menu. I haven't really seen that combination anywhere else, and I think it's really unique and really good. They also have a great happy hour. I'm not the biggest fan of the wings, but the shrimp and lobster roll is definitely worth trying. The service has always been good when I've visited, and the atmosphere is always a vibe. It's close to the Theater District, so it's a great spot to grab dinner before or after a show. There's usually a nice crowd, and you might even bump into an actor or celebrity. Overall, it's a place I keep coming back to because the food is consistently good, the service has been solid, and the overall experience is always enjoyable.

The service was not what you would've expected for this quality of food. The bread was okay, when you dipped it in the olive oil and vinegar it was better. The lobster ravioli was good (I ended up getting that instead of the surf and turf since mine came out well done... bleh)!! Baked potato was weird, not really a fan. They do have some good Canadian bacon though, but they have that in their fully loaded potato and it takes over the entire thing so maybe don't do that. The steak was okay at best. Steak fries were decent, a bit greasier than we would've liked. Overall, I wouldn't really recommend this as a place to go to in NY as we would likely never go back. We spent so much money on a dinner for it to feel not worth after we left. And it was our anniversary dinner too.

The fried calamari was some of the best I've had tho it was observed with a little bit of cocktail sauce and a huge thing of tartar sauce. I'm sure I could have gotten more cocktail sauce, since I don't like tartar sauce, but it wasn't necessary. The calamari was so good. The lobster bisque was delicious and the picture can't show you that it was full of lobster. There was a LOT more lobster than a lobster bisque normally contains and the price was about normal for a lobster bisque with one tiny piece of lobster. The iced tea was a bit out of control. If I'm going to be charged $5 per glass of iced tea, that glass should be larger than the ones they use AND not 90% ice. That much for a glass of ice with a splash of iced tea is extreme. I'd still return, since the food was wonderful and hopefully I just got unlucky with the service.

Junior's Restaurant -- Times Square, NYC…read more My first time at Junior's in Times Square, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! I always associated Junior's with that legendary New York cheesecake, but there's so much more going on here. This location feels like a classic Brooklyn-style diner with a fun, bustling Times Square atmosphere. Junior's has been a New York institution since 1950, and the Times Square location brings that old-school diner feel right into the heart of the Theater District. And yes... it's not just about the cheesecake! The menu is huge, with plenty of choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. One thing I will tell you: the portions are BIG, so come hungry! There's a full bar with wine, top-shelf liquor, and plenty of beer, including Brooklyn beers. There aren't any draft beers at this location, but there are still plenty of bottled and canned options to choose from. There's also plenty of indoor seating, plus outdoor seating if you want to sit back and watch the Times Square action go by. We decided to skip the appetizers because we wanted to save room for dessert. That turned out to be a very good decision! What We Ordered Hungarian Beef Goulash The beef was cooked perfectly and served with egg noodles and peas. A hearty, comforting dish with plenty of flavor. 10 oz. Char-Broiled Bacon Cheeseburger I went with the bacon cheeseburger served on a toasted bun with lettuce and tomato. It comes with two BIG onion rings, and the crispy batter on those onion rings was fantastic! Instead of the steak fries, I went with something near and dear to my New Jersey heart... DISCO FRIES! If you're from New Jersey, you know exactly what I'm talking about -- crispy fries topped with melted mozzarella and gravy. Mouthwatering! Definitely the kind of side dish that makes you wonder why every restaurant doesn't offer it. And then came the moment we had supposedly been "saving room" for... Devil's Food Cheesecake I honestly don't know how we managed to fit this in, but we did! DECADENT! Rich, chocolatey, creamy, and absolutely delicious. By the time we finished, we were basically in a cheesecake coma. Thankfully, we had plenty of time to walk around New York City afterward and work some of that food off! Our server was fantastic -- attentive, friendly, and constantly checking in to make sure everything was good without being intrusive. That kind of service really makes a difference. This was a great first visit to Junior's, and I'm already looking forward to coming back. Next time, I definitely want to try another one of their famous cheesecakes. I've also heard their milkshakes are amazing, so I guess I'll have to make room for one of those too! Great food, huge portions, fun atmosphere, excellent service, and some seriously good cheesecake. If you're exploring Times Square and looking for a classic NYC dining experience, Junior's is definitely worth a stop!
