What a fun place!! It was sooo busy all week with events!! Lucky to go one day when no events planned. We enjoyed the Aperol spritz and the mocktail version with the hummus trio! Three great hummus types- regular, red pepper, and cilantro. Sooo good! read more

Inside Park - Hummus trio - New American Near Me - New York, New York

We had dinner in the main indoor dining room before a Christmas concert at St. Barts. The restaurant wasn't full (just before a concert with over 500 people attending) which seemed very odd. Now we know why - the food was very mediocre and far too expensive, and the service was friendly but inefficient and slap dash. Upon arriving we told the wait staff that we were attending the concert next door and had to leave in plenty of time to get over there. Instead, they seemed to forget about us and we wound up repeatedly asking for our bill and as a result, almost missed the beginning of the concert. With better food and a well-trained staff, this restaurant could be a real winner. Now, it's a "must miss." read more

Been here a few times after work for drinks with colleagues. It's a nice outdoorsy area with a tent setup. Great for the warmer weather. Convenient as it's right across the street for me. Staff are pretty decent. read more

Came here to have lunch by myself. Didn't have much expectation. I the salad which was ok and then the chicken which was chewy at its most. I ate because I was starving. I wouldn't come back here. Service was ok read more

Outdoor dining at the church which was a plus, we had drinks and fries (too salty) while we waited under the tent for a seat, and then we're seated after about 45min wait. Interestly the church bells tolled at irregular intervals, we wondered why at :55 and :09 they went off. Timer issue? Bartender was great, super friendly service there. Small wine and beer list which was simple, good for an easy decision. The burrata was excellent as a starter but could have used some toast points or similar. The hangar steak was tough and lacked much flavor; the sauce was just so-so for me. The single scallion could've been better as a single asparagus or similar. The bean burger was a hit with my fellow diners though. Meatballs as an appetizer at the next door table looked and smelled awesome though. Will try another time. One downside was dirty drinking glasses; two had lipstick stains on them (as three guys, not us). Quick to replace but might want to get on that washing, and for some reason the guy clearing tables tried to clear our dishes early twice during the meal. Check was quick and efficient. Overall a nice epic view of the church and nice spot to grab a beer and small bite. Next time more appetizers. read more

Hanging out with some really cool friends and met up at Inside the Park. The food was okay. We had the Seafood Amarillo, it was a cold soup seafood medley with Calamari, Rock shrimps, Scallops, and ajo amarillo and potato croquettes (a side of breaded potatoes) and it complimented the soup well. Trying a hot dish next time. I was not really into the Amarillo cos it was a cold dish. Jay's drinks hit the spot and service was on point. read more

This location is fantastic. Eating right outside St Bart's with a very open feel is quite pleasant, but it does feel like eating inside a tent. I had a nice salad with chicken. It wasn't anything special, but I didn't really order anything special. They didn't offer the healthiest menu - added sugar in everything for those who are looking out for that. Very friendly service. It was nice once, but for the crazy prices, I wouldn't go again. Remember to tip well. read more

Stepped in for drinks the other week. Venue is great - love the outdoor or enclosed space. It's a good vibe even if it gets rather loud given its popularity. The downside is the drink menu is nothing special and the food menu is weirdly limited for a place designed for happy hours; no handheld appetizers, nothing easily split. The food was fine when it came out. Nothing unique or great but nothing bad either. read more

Meh! Thought this place had a lot of potential with the location and when I first walked into the outdoor area which is beautiful, but it was a big "miss" in a lot of other areas. I guess the biggest disappointment for me was that just about every criticism that others here have pointed out in the past haven't been addressed by management/ownership which just tells me someone doesn't really care all that much about improving things here. We went to Inside Park at the height of the holiday season and the place was half empty which for NYC, is usually a telltale sign that there's an issue. With regard to service, our waiter quite literally disappeared during our entire meal and this wasn't because the restaurant was so crowded that he was busy (only 5-6 tables seated). We had to literally get out of our seats to order more drinks and ask for bread. We walked up to the bar where the waiter was hanging out and chatting it up with the bartender to ask for more water. Then when the waiter took our order, I inquire about the soup. Waiter says "no soup today"...what restaurant in the middle of winter in NYC doesn't have soup? Then then waiter suggest another dish which is kinda like a bean soup and I say "I'll take that". Waiter then says "sorry, not available today!" Weird. We then ask our waiter for some bread and he looks at us like no one has ever asked for bread before. Then just as we're about to finish our meal the bread arrives and its 3 very tiny pieces of toast. Weird. Then the check arrives and I see on the bill a $3 charge for the bread. We call the manager over (waiter again not found!) and ask about the bread charge. He tells us sorry, but bread not really part of the meal but he will take it off the bill. Felt like I was in the 1980's where there were restaurants who thought it was a good idea to charge for water and bread. The food was actually pretty good, so there was that, but just about every other aspect was a bit off. Just so easily fixed. read more

I can't tell you how many times I've walked past this place when making my way from 57th street down to grand central. I took a mental note to drop by one day and today it finally happened. It's a great spot for after work drinks & an app. I'm not entirely sure what the indoor dining space looks like since we sat outdoors, but I couldn't imagine anyone passing up sitting on the terrace when the weather is nice. I like the Social Hour/Happy Hour options. Unfortunately the meatballs & artichokes were sold out when I arrived for my 3:45 reservation. Thought that was very odd since there's only 4 food options for social hour... In any case we shared the grilled octopus, which was phenomenal. My friend ordered it again for an entree. Unfortunately, I went for the Oricchette. It disappointingly bland. The sauce had no flavor. Tried adding fresh pepper -- didn't do much. If my Riesling wasn't so good i would have given this 3 stars. But I'm willing to come back to try other things before coming to that. read more

Decent place for lunch. I really enjoyed the appetizers- Burrata and meatballs. The chicken sandwich was OK... it was mostly breading and not much chicken so a bit disappointing. Our waitress, Leanne was phenomenal. Just super nice and knowledgeable about the menu items. Our party also got a bottle of wine which was really good. The inside was cooled on this hot summer day and not too crowded which was even better! read more

Our orders: Park burger, south side (cocktail), passionfruit sorbet Pro + Service: amazing! Everyone was so thorough. Kevin, our server, checked on us often! + Food: delicious. I loved the crisp of the fries. The passion fruit sorbet was a bit on the sour side, I might not get that again. Cons - Parking was fun to find..be sure to take the metro if you can help it! read more

Came here for a work team dinner and the outdoor seating are was pretty nice. The items on the menu were all pretty pricey but luckily this was on our corporate card. The food was good for the most part, but not high enough quality that I would ever pay that price for it myself. read more

I've visited this place many times prior to this review (long overdue). Most recent visit was for a work lunch which did not disappoint. Our party of 7 was promptly seated and greeted by our server; very polite. Food and drinks were spot on. I went for the lobster with shrimp roll - amazing. Every item arrived timely to our table and we left room for dessert; which was delicious - must try the guava cheesecake. Worth the trip if you're visiting or looking for a casual lunch place - I do recommend. read more

I am seriously surprised this place has such low rating on Yelp - definitely way underrated! We came in on a Tuesday night at 6 p.m. and the place was packed, mostly with business professionals, so better make a reservation. The restaurant shares space with an active church (St. Bart's), how cool is that?:) the vibe is amazing. We had Tuna Tacos for appetizer, I had Crab cakes (one of the best ones I've ever had) and my fiancé got pasta with shrimp and lobster - that was a favorite of the night. The pasta was so good I kept stealing from his plate ha ha :) We ended the night with Guava cheesecake, definitely a must try! And I don't even like cheesecake! Overall - great place for a night out or a business lunch. For more fabulous places check out my Insta page @daria.newyork read more

It's a beautiful oasis in the concrete jungle located in the courtyard of the St. Bart church with better than average comfort food & drinks. The lunch time can be quite crowded with business professionals in Midtown but if you show up at 12:00 Noon sharp, you can be seated right away. Reservations recommended, regardless. I will visit here again just because of the cool ambiance. read more

I came here for a team lunch--we were welcoming a new employee. We came towards the end of summer so it was nice to sit outside. That said, the food was okay (I had the Mexican lobster roll) but not worth the price. Plus, they were kind of slow. it wasn't horrible but I wouldn't really go back in a hurry. read more

Came here for a work lunch, was able to get a reservation 45 mins before on a Thursday! They have a delicious crispy chicken sandwich. Would highly recommended! Probably one of the best crispy chicken sandwiches Ive had. The chicken was juicy and came with a side of fries. Saw cauliflower on the menu online but they don't have it for the summer. read more

Inside Park has a coveted Park Ave location, with outdoor dining above street level, and boasts a namesake with storied St. Bart. Tried if for lunch recently and was really underwhelmed by the food. The Burrata salad was just barely ok; their house chicken salad was below average and the roast chicken was drenched in oily juices. Perhaps other items were better, these are basic dishes that restaurants should perfect. How hard is it to procure decent cheese and put it on a plate? That's basically the art of making a burrata salad. How can you get lettuce and chicken wrong? Anyway - they need to step their game up! read more

Had a great lunch outside on a beautiful day today. Such a relaxing atmosphere and very fast and good service. Had fish taco was good tasting but little cold. Buddy had pests chicken sandwich he said it was very tasty and fresh. Quick service in and out for a nice relaxing lunch hour. Only block from my office is nice too. read more

If you're in Midtown, this is a good outdoor happy hr spot. Drinks are cheap and solid. Best in the summer time when the tent comes down. Good place to start and venture out post HH. Would recommend. read more

Really great after-work atmosphere but honestly way over-priced. Might come back for another drink at some point but would rather go to one of the many other decently priced happy hour spots in NYC. read more

I came by for lunch with some coworkers rsvp doesn't seem to be needed but am sure it helps specially during the busy lunch hours & on a nice day when everyone seems to be outside. We were seated outside under a nice umbrella drinks we all stuck to water. Food I had the Buttermilk chicken sandwich with a salad, nicely breaded piece of chicken this was good great taste to the chicken. Salad was good as well nice tasting dressing. Other dishes the Kale salad was good, seems a bit small but my coworker enjoyed it. Another good salad was the Cob salad nicer looking salad with enough avocado, bacon & blue cheese not bad. Nice looking area outside perfect on a nice day to have lunch outside as long as the wait it not crazy long. Service was good, prices are decent normal to the area we had a good lunch. read more

I came here for drinks after work with a friend and we both really enjoyed this outdoor bar. They had lots of seating so you could choose whether you wanted to sit at a table for food service or sit/stand near the bar. We got really tasty frose's for $10 and ordered some fries as a snack as well. We loved the atmosphere of young professionals and enjoyed the dj's music which started later in the evening. I recommend this place for after work with coworkers or even for a casual night out with friends. read more

Ok, this time our alumni event was better than last year. I got to try a few hors d'oeuvre and they were perfectly made (for me!). There were chicken, mini burgers, pear and cheese, salmon, etc. The evening was cooler than last year. The evening was great, more space to walk around. Very pleasant. Good job! read more

I was hosting an important dinner for eight people, so I called nearly two months in advance and made a reservation. Just one week before we were due to dine there, I received a voicemail message saying they had a "buyout" and would not honor my reservation. They left me with no options for my dinner during a very busy season. What a really crappy, unprofessional way to treat customers. I will NEVER set foot in this restaurant again. read more

Great food and outdoors dining on the terrace. The hanger steak was perfection. The roadwork/building next door made it particularly noisy though and I will only come back once it's completed. read more

Was nice. But was not blown away. They were having a party outside so the staff was quit busy and my table was neglected. But food and drinks plus ambiance was nice. Inside is beautiful. read more

Very nice outdoor experience, and the hostess was very gracious. Note: you don't need a reservation if you are coming just for drinks (you will be sent to the bar). read more

This is an amazing place that I can't believe I hadn't been to before! Awesome bar outside next to a church that is so unique! There is lots of outdoor seating, the service was great, the drinks were great and the ambiance was so cool! We had a few of the summer cocktails and they were all delicious! Not crowded on the weekend but apparently this place is packed during the week/happy hour which makes sense since it's in midtown! Will be back! read more

The hubby and I were looking for a place to grab a quick lunch. I have eaten at Inside Park at St. Bart's about 20 years ago - seriously - 20 years ago, so we decided to give it another try. We had: - Spinach Salad with Chicken - Tasty - Caesar Salad with Chicken - Tasty The service was good and the space was nice. It is a convenient place to lunch if you are in the neighborhood. read more

Great salads - average options for vegetarians (salads + a pizza and a panini) but the ambience makes up for it. Coffee machine wasn't working that day. Beautiful place to lunch. Can't wait to see it in winter. read more

Went there after 7, was seated in a timely matter towards the back by the terrace and bushes. First thought it's dark. Had to pull out my phone flashlight to read the menu, no biggie. I had the crab cakes my friend the pork chop. We were happy with the meal and our waitress was very attentive. About an hour in, the itching began... mosquitos!!! Wish I could rate this place higher but as the bus boy kept throwing water over the edge, I figured that's why there are mosquitos in this area... In either event if I do come back, I would take seating to the bar or as far as way from the bushes as possible read more

I could see how this place does well in the summer months, when professionals need a drink after a long day at the office and it's nice enough to sit outside and enjoy the outdoor bar area. I get it. I do. But for lunch? Eh, it was just okay. We opted to sit inside since it looked like it was about to pour. The service was a bit slow but they kept our glasses filled with water. I went with the turkey burger that comes on an English muffin, opting for a side salad rather than fries. Our food finally came out and the top of my English muffin was missing. I ended up being fine with this since I cut it anyway but how do you leave that out? Also both mine and my colleague's salads were without dressing. We had to ask for it on the side and the waitress seemed shocked that none was already there. The inside is very pretty with the vaulted ceilings. I might stop by again during the summer to check out the outdoor party but I would probably pass on the food. read more

Very cute spot for drinks! It's a nice open terrance next to St.Barts; a pretty location to admire the architecture and feel secluded from the busy streets. It was a hot summer day but there was plenty of shady spots and a few fans to keep it breezy. Service was good as well! read more

I went here last night with three of my colleagues and we left really disappointed. The atmosphere is weird - stuffy and quiet but they have the patio which is very fratty. The waiters were very off putting as well; it felt as if they were trying to fight over our table and get our tips but when we put in our order we were asked to put down a card and open a tab? We ordered drinks at a seated booth so maybe it was because we were just drinking but I got the impression that they were not too keen on four 20-something year olds ordering fancy wine without some insurance. When we were ordering drinks, they did not give us a beer menu and when asked what beer my colleague wanted to order the waitress said "sorry we don't have that" and then didn't tell him which beers they did have? Very unprofessional for an upscale location like this. The happy hour is decent - $5 beer $7 well and some wine. We got 2 glasses of $15 wine and four beers and the total came out to $60 which is not bad. I will say, however, that my $15 glass of wine came in a DIRTY WINE GLASS and I had to request a clean one. I was not pleased. All in all, I would not return to this place for drinks. I would consider giving the patio a shot during happy hour but not the inside dining area (the patio was not an option when I went as it was closed). read more

A very nice restaurant with great, friendly service and very nice atmosphere whether you want a raucous drink with friends (or new friends) outside or some quiet contemplation with friends or a date inside the church clubhouse. The rolls to start out the meal were soft, tasty and slightly warm. For the main courses, we had the good short ribs (which could have used some more sauce), some good crab cakes, and a fairly good, but not extraordinary burger. The burger did not come out correctly twice. When it finally did, it was very tasty, but still not perfect. I would still consider ordering it again. Note, they also have an Impossible Burger. On the other hand the french fries were fabulous. They were very moist and with skins. Anyway, the staff was very nice and did not charge us for the burger. Not only that but they brought us all a lovely dessert wine with our dessert. That is superb service. For dessert I wanted the cheesecake, but they were out of it. I had to "settle" for the Italian cookie plate, which was actually very good. All in all, a great evening and I look forward to going back. read more
