    Came after work on a Friday 6pm, space isn't too big and it's a pretty loud bar, but nice drinks, affordable prices, long happy hour 11-7pm and fresh $1 oysters! To get the oysters you do have to order a drink, but they are fresh even though it's not oyster season. Beef nachos were good as well, a great happy hour place for sure but fills up quickly with the limited space.

    Update: What I said previously still stands The service ambience and food are all amazing! Last time we went we saw George Weasley, after he ran the NY marathon

    Enya is literally so fab I love this girl she makes a MEAN martini every time. Tip your girl so fat, enjoy a delish martini, and have a fabulous conversation.

    Came here for the $1 oysters but didn't end up getting any because of all the rules they have in place. First of all, one side of the sign says "Raw $1 Oysters, All Day, Every Day." Flip it over, though, and you'll find all the terms and conditions for getting the oysters. They're not actually $1 all day. They're $1 until 7 PM, then $1.50 each. You must also order drinks for the entire initial party size, even if one person is just joining for the vibes and offers to leave after sitting for 10 minutes. You still need to order a drink for that person. I understand the food requirement and have no issue with that, but the drink requirement felt excessive. Even after one person said they would leave, the waitress told us we still needed to order the same number of drinks as the original party size. That's a little ridiculous. I even asked the waitress how much the oysters would cost if we didn't order the drinks. I was willing to pay a higher price since all we wanted was food and oysters. She said they don't allow that and that we needed to order drinks for everyone. Nowhere on their website are these rules listed. The site simply says: "Raw Bar, Oysters $1, available 7 days a week, minimum of 6 per order." If we had known about these requirements beforehand, we wouldn't have come. There are other oyster bars that don't have these conditions attached to ordering oysters. I actually felt bad for the waitress. She was trying her best to accommodate us but unfortunately couldn't serve us the oysters. Please update your website or be more transparent about these rules. All we wanted were oysters, some food, and maybe a couple of drinks.

    The vibe is nice in here and the service is prompt and friendly. I enjoyed the chicken and waffles with a mimosa.

    Ambiance is great. Fun for a bar, cocktail drinks are good. The food is lacking in flavor and it is overpriced! Welcome to NYC!

    I first found this place through TikTok, where people were hyping it up in Italy. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised to find out they had a location in New York City, so I obviously had to give it a try. There are a few locations, but I decided to visit this one because it was the most convenient for getting to and from home. I got there around 7:00 PM, which felt a little close to closing time since Google said they close at 9:00 PM, but it wasn't busy at all. In fact, I was only the third customer to place an order. I ordered the La Summer sandwich and added pesto. After sitting down and taking my first bite, I immediately understood the hype. Without a doubt, this is one of the best sandwiches I've had in a very long time. I'm not even a huge sandwich person when it comes to subs and deli meats, but everything tasted incredibly fresh. The ingredients paired together perfectly, and you could still taste each one individually. The only thing I'd change next time is the meat. I had no idea prosciutto was a type of ham, but honestly, it didn't even taste like ham to me. It was sliced paper-thin, slightly salty, and worked surprisingly well with everything else. Next time, though, I'll probably add salami just to see how it compares. Overall, this sandwich was a solid 10/10, and I will absolutely be back--whether it's to try a different sandwich or, if we're being honest, order the exact same one again with salami added. I will say it's on the expensive side, but that's New York City for you. Apparently, all of the ingredients are flown in from Italy. After tax and tip, I paid a whopping $28 for a single sandwich. That said, it was incredibly filling and definitely kept me satisfied. The workers were also really nice and accommodating, and the indoor seating was beautiful. The atmosphere felt like a fancy Italian café, complete with couches and artwork throughout the space. I wish I had taken pictures, but honestly, I was too busy enjoying what might be the best sandwich I've had in years.

    This is such a great spot for a quick Sammie that is big enough for two. Don't let this place…read moreintimidate you. The menu inside breaks down all of the sandwhiches, you roll up to the deli counter when they say next, spill out your order (add/remove stuff to your order) and you're done. The most overwhelming thing is deciphering the Italian sandwhich menu. I hit up the Italian Hot. Pretty decent! I added sun dried tomatoes...but it would have been just as good without it. Be PREPARED this Sammie has some chili honey liquid /oil sauce they put on it and it's tasty but it's a lot. The staff are friendly - just focused on getting your order and getting it to you so you can enjoy. The wall is pretty interested they have made their own decor out of door panel fixtures.

The line was about 10 people long around 1pm, not terrible - gave me a chance to further investigate the menu and gaze at loads of drool-worthy meats and cheese in the display case. I opted for the L'italiana, which features Prosciutto, Pistachio Cream, Stracciatella, Sun-Dried Tomato, Arugula, though I swapped out the prosciutto for bresaola. Oh man, this bread is legit! And as a yuuuge pistachio fan, that cream is delightful, especially coupled with that creamy stracciatella. Super well-composed sandwich, amazing bread, quality ingredients...a hit! Needless to say, I'll be back in short order to try more of their menu. Good stuff!

This location, was absolutely not prepared to have this store in nyc. For New Yorkers that never had a sandwich from Jersey Mike's, this location will ruin the brand. I ordered a sandwich for pickup on a rainy night in the weekday, it literally took 1 hour for a cold sandwich that was missing parts of my order! Everyone waiting which was about 30 people were all visibly frustrated and angry. I missed my show because I couldn't even have predicted that ordering from a chain would take this long. They had 3 staff, 1 preparing not pickup orders and managing the register, one making orders with a stack of prepared orders whose names they weren't calling?!? Like how can you be this understaffed for a location like this. Getting someone to ask about your order was nearly impossible. Honestly, I feel bad for the staff working there since this is nyc and you deal with crazies, so one guy who waited 15 minutes getting heated I debated just finishing my sandwich at home because I didn't want to witness craziness Ok-actual sandwich was beyond a disappointment. They got it wrong and to get it fixed would have taken another hour that I didn't have. The bread was stale and cold and hard, there was veryy little meat. I basically ate a vinegar and vegetable sandwich on stale bread I could not picture working in the area and getting lunch here also paying $13 for this quality and chaos

I have three big guys with me and sometimes quick lunches need to be more filling than fast food options, so we chose Alidoro's under Rockefeller Plaza. We could walk to it form the hotel and it was in the middle off all we wanted to show the boys on their first day (first time) in the city. We all chose different sandwiches and they were ready pretty fast. Since the shop itself is not huge, we landed a small space at the window bar with two stools and some standing room. After being in a car and on a flight and in another car all morning, we weren't mad about the standing part. We were all able to share and sample each sandwich, and honestly, we were not disappointed. We were all full and happy when we weren't finished, so what more could we want for a relatively quick NYC meal? Being under the plaza, the restrooms were outside the shop but very close by so we were able to wash hands and such before journeying out into the wild. I would definitely stop back by again on another trip! The guys and I all gave Alidoro's two thumbs up - so 8 thumbs total, if you're counting.
