Water and excellent bread arrived immediately and the waiter was helpful describing dishes and giving advice. Salads were fresh and crisp. Caesar was nicely dressed and the mixed salad was a nice combination with well balanced herb vinaigrette. Seafood dishes had large amounts of fresh seafood and the veal picatta had the lemony flavor you expect without excessive acidity. Dessert was tasty and innovative. The ricotta based cheese cake wasn't as smooth as the cream cheese form but the citrus flavor was great. Throughout the meal water and bread were refilled, plates from completed courses removed and next delivered without being overly hovering. All in all a really great meal.

The carbonara had a great smokiness from the meat, and the risotto was cooked well as was most of the seafood in it. Both the carbonara and risotto had some inedible parts to it that were disappointing. The pancetta had small pieces of hard cartilage and the risotto had part of a shrimp shell.

Located in NYC's Theater District, SaiTong deserves a Tony Award for Best Performance on Broadway!…read moreFrom the moment I walked through the door, the energy was fantastic. Nearly every seat was filled, and I was fortunate enough to grab an open seat at the bar. One thing I appreciate is a restaurant that delivers an authentic dining experience, and SaiTong Thai did not disappoint. I started with the fried shrimp wonton special, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. But the real showstopper was the pineapple fried rice (with vegetables). Loaded with fresh vegetables, pineapple, cashews, raisins, curry spices, and an incredible combination of textures and flavors, this dish was anything but ordinary. Too often, ordering a vegetable dish means getting a few basic additions. Not here! The variety, freshness, and attention to detail made every bite memorable. From the lively atmosphere to the outstanding food, SaiTong delivered a standing-ovation-worthy performance! Make this restaurant a priority when visiting the Theater District. I'll definitely be back for an encore.

I had heard so much hype about this place, so l was really excited to bring a group here before our…read moreshow. The restaurant itself is gorgeous-very modern and ideal for large parties. We ordered family-style to share, starting with the cashew shrimp, spring rolls, and wontons, followed by the braised short rib lo mein, crab fried rice, chicken & broccoli, salt & pepper shrimp, and sea bass. Everything tasted decent, but nothing was particularly remarkable for the price point. Unfortunately, the service was lacking. I had to track down our server multiple times throughout the meal. An item was completely forgotten because order details weren't written down, and there was confusion when paying regarding an InKind / Broadway offer. Proper staff training would go a long way here-as it stands, the service level and pricing just don't align."

I'd file this spot under "Times Square dinner spots that make you feel like you're not in Times…read moreSquare." Came here for dinner before a show (and after watching that In The City episode...can we all agree the dress was white?!). Anyway, love the vibe of this place, very high end and cool feeling decor wise. We were seated and taken care of right away, our server understood we had to be out at a certain time and made sure everything came out in a timely manner which was much appreciated. I started out with the pani puri cocktail because I'm a simp for pani puri. Loved the little case this whole thing came out in, the drink was delicious and the puri had a smokey flavor to it. We had the Gilafi Paneer to start out which was soft, tasted homemade. The bell pepper and onion with it were roasted and excellent. I went with the goat curry for my main and was blown away, I ate every last drop of this sauce with the garlic naan I was happy to have ordered. Definitely not your typical mediocre Times Square spot. If you're looking for a pre-show dinner spot and love Indian food this is the place for you.

We tried Natraj dahi bhalle which was a hit. Also tried Channa bhatura which was again a great choice and not too overly filling. Bedmi puri sabzi and Koyla chicken was just ok, not something I would crazy over but decent enough. And the last thing we tried was Mutton Seekh kebab roll. This was an absolute pleaser, thin roomali rotis wrapped around perfectly seasoned minced goat meat, paired with the chutney, this was divine. I would recommend trying this place out. We also tried the masala soda which was nice but missed the actual Karol bagh flavor.

We decided on the Wagyu sliders, Honey Sriracha Wings and Parmesan Truffle Fries. So glad we did bc all of our choices were fantastic. The sliders were served on a pretzel bun and the Wagyu melted in your mouth. The wings were perfectly cooked. They were smokey with the perfect amount of heat. The fries were just okay. They could have been cooked better or served "fresh." Overall we enjoyed our time at Dutch Fred's and would return after another show.

I will say, we got a lot of attitude from the host when asking for a table. Not very accommodating but we did get a table. The food was very good and I was pleasantly surprised how filling their Caesar salad was. This place has a great drink menu as well. I will make note, we went on a Saturday night and it's very loud in there. They like to pump up the volume on the music so we had to yell at each other to talk. I say, this is probably a great spot to meet with friends during the week to catch up but if you want to go there during the weekend, go before it gets too loud.
