    Short Rib Grilled Cheese
    Jason M.

    My family and I had just finished at the Met and were looking for a late lunch/early dinner before heading home. One of my brothers had suggested Home Kitchen - since it was close by with an inoffensive menu and good reviews, we decided to give it a try. That being said, we took the short walk over from the Met to check it out. Home Kitchen has an almost unassuming exterior besides the outdoor seating it pretty much blends into its surroundings (not a bad thing). Walking in, the size and setup is typical of a neighborhood Manhattan spot. It's not a large space, but is decently-sized with a bar immediately to your left and tables scattered throughout. The decor is fine, nothing too noteworthy but they have several NYC-esque pictures on the walls which I thought were a nice touch. HK offers brunch on Saturdays and Sundays in addition to their all-day menu. We were there during the changeover from brunch to dinner service, so we ordered from the latter menu. The selections were mostly American dishes - some apps, mains, pastas, salads, and sides. I wasn't in the mood for anything too outrageous so I decided to get their burger. This was relatively simple, cooked to my liking and topped with lettuce, tomato, and my choice of cheese (I chose Swiss). The burger was good - tasty and I appreciated the thickness of the patty. The burger came with fries which were fries. Service was great - everyone was super friendly and made us feel very welcome; I would honestly say that's the most noteworthy thing about my experience. Overall, while I wouldn't consider Home Kitchen a destination spot by any means, it's a solid neighborhood eatery and an inoffensive option if you're hungry after visiting the Met.

    White Bean Salad

    Lovely outdoor seating with beautiful flowers and umbrellas. server was friendly and polite. $14 cream of mushroom soup tasted good, bowl portion. white bean salad @ $19 was very disappointing. maybe 2 cups of arugula and yellowy old baby spinach, a ton of red opinion, 2 cherry tomatoes, less than 1/4 cup cannellini beans, less than a 1/4 cup feta, was supposed to have peppers, there were none, nice vinaigrette. maybe $1 worth of ingredients for $19. just an awful overpriced salad. lots of options in the area, wouldn't go back

    I've walked past this place SO many times but I kept forgetting to go... well, I finally did and it was WORTH it! Cozy atmosphere, fantastic service (thanks Sergio! You are a gem!) and great food. We shared the crispy artichoke salad (divine!) and I had the snapper on special while my dining partner ate the 1/2 roast chicken. They were lovely with preferences and substitutions, which was so appreciated, and even split the salad for us. I really want to return for the lobster special ($60 with corn & slaw, call Monday to preorder for Tuesday dinner) which looked amazing.

    Yummiest chicken pot pie, oh, my!!
    Kay M.

    Planned to order a sandwich, switched to the pot pie when it arrived at a nearby table... oh, my!!! SO DELICIOUS!! Perfectly homemade-as-momma's ... the crust, tender chicken and flavorful filling... served piping hot on a rain soaked afternoon. I'd return tomorrow to get another taste, if I weren't headed back to Texas. Bonus points to the charming owner, and manager... both guys were a welcome addition to a memorable lunch. I'll be back!

    Excellent service that gives you home vibe, truly living up to its name. The chicken pot pie and breakfast spread are delicious, made right, and fresh! Great place for homey food and for hosting big party. We came as party of 20 and had a great experience. Will come back again.

    Exact same bowls that we used to have at my house when I was a kid! Brought me back in time while eating the fresh strawberries! Enjoyed meeting the staff, especially a young lady named Candace, who, like myself, is from the south. Brought a tear to my eye to see such respectful manners and kindness in today's world. What a great place to rest my legs and warm my feet on such a cold day right before "snowmageddon" sets in later this evening. Great "home" service and atmosphere. Tripp from Mississippi!

    Had a wonderful evening with hearty warm delicious dishes! All the flavors were on point, and the atmosphere plus staff were very warm & inviting. One of the staff held the door open for all guests coming in & out which was an extra touch, it was nice to have a warm welcoming and also thanking us for dining there. My favorites are definitely truffle Mac & cheese along with the pot pie & short ribs, so tender!

    Leo took great care of us and the outdoor seating was quite cozy. Food was great and reasonably-priced. A nice local UES gem!

    Half decent food, good service. Expensive for what you get. We needed to get indoors with a big group. Most were disappointed in their meal

    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!
