    Outside seating
    Andrew L.

    Often passing Oscar's and seldom have the chance to either snag a seat/table -- so on a gorgeous afternoon at 3:30 when the place is empty from brunch, I came for a late lunch. Having read previous reviews of their amazing fish and chips, I had to try it out. There was outdoor seating but with intermittent showers and the wind I went inside. Though it was small and a bit hot it's still cozy. I ordered a Leffe and my meal and the host asked if I wanted bread (of course I did). The beer came nicely chilled. The fish and chips came later perfectly deep fried in a lite batter. There was one long and one shorter fillet (probably haddock) with lots of fries. For $25 in the west village with a cold beer, what more can one ask for. This will be my go to spot for no frills good food. Beer is lost is expansive and the real problem is getting a seat when it's during the rush. What a terrific find in a sea of expensive and upscale eating. And service was terrific as well!

    So cozy it may as well have been Oscar's living room. Chicken and waffles were a daunting task, but a rewarding one. Overall a nice, cozy experience for brunch.

    Fish n' chips
    Tony B.

    This place felt like a no-frills fish n' chip shop that one could come across in London (or somewhere in Belgium for that matter!). It's a very small, but cozy restaurant, and one could tell that those that own it care about the space and how well organized, clean, and put together it is. The sense of minimalism and European food brands (ex. malt vinegars) add charm to the simple setting giving off a non-pretentious, relaxed, ambience. The waiter was friendly and efficient. Now for the most important part: the food! The fish n' chips are deliciously superb. The cod tasted fresh. The batter was light, crispy, and spiced well. What was noteworthy was the tartar sauce. It has a unique tang to it that made the fish n' chips refreshing despite the fact that it's deep-fried. Maybe it was a usage of lime and celery? The chips were nice and crispy, but you could definitely taste the potato still. I ate the whole plate. A pleasant experience. I know where I'll go to get my fish n' chips next time I'm in Manhattan.

    Bread and butter
    Jennifer G.

    BEST SALMON BURGER IN THE CITY. Place is really tiny but the food and staff are great. Everyone is so friendly, it feels like you're walking into their home. The salmon burger is always fresh! Not sure what's in that sauce but I can eat this everyday. Served with the crispiest French fries. They give complimentary bread and butter to start and the bread is so fluffy and toasted perfectly. Love love love!

    Glorious fish & chips.  Thought I couldn't finish such a generous portion, but I did!
    Mary G.

    Appearances can be deceptive. This tiny (16 seats) place isn't real pretty, but boy can they cook! The friendly staff bring masterful fish & chips - a full beautiful fillet with paper thin coating, perfectly cooked. Fries that were cut onsite, not from a bag. Butternut squash soup generously served and scrumptious. Surprising menu options from their English/Belgian background, like a steak and kidney dish, bangers and mash, and tarte tatin (simple but exacting as to technique). My friend's halibut was perfect, the lovely sauce kissed with garlic. My only wish (aside from them moving next door to me) is brighter lighting which this lovely food deserves. And the prices are actually reasonable!

    eggs cocotte/baked eggs
    Marc F.

    Met a friend in the neighborhood for brunch. We had made reservations online but if you go early enough, or maybe get lucky, you won't need them. During the summer they had outdoor seating. The dining area is tight, with only a few tables inside and essentially in the kitchen. The server was helpful, gave recommendations for different options and kept checking in on us. Opted for the eggs cocotte for something lighter and the mash of the day, which I believe had roasted leeks. Eggs were cooked well, salad was a nice contrast, and rich mash. With a day filled with activities ahead of me, it took every bit of will power to not order a full english. But next time, I absolutely will.

Daniel & Faiza were AMAZING hosts and made sure we were taken care of from start to finish. The hospitality here really stands out. Chef Indi even came by to chat and shared her journey building Markette plus her vision for The Argyle (closed Sunday-Monday). Such a cool personal touch! Daniel was also kind enough to give us a preview of the space downstairs and now I definitely need to come back for that experience too. And yes, there will be a wait but trust me, it's worth it. You can genuinely taste the care and intention behind every dish. Nothing felt rushed, and every bite tasted like love was put into it. Big shoutout to bartender Carlo because he steered us in the RIGHT direction cocktail wise. The drinks were chef's kiss. Favorites were definitely: Blue Jean Baby Cease and Desist Also tried the Hay Barbie and White Mirage, all super solid. Whew. The flavors?? INSANE. We were basically licking the plates because the sauces and seasoning were THAT good. Appetizers: Salt Cod Fritters -- easily our favorite app. Perfect crunch and that scotch bonnet sauce? So good. Hamachi Crudo -- fresh, bright, and flavorful. Entrées: Braised Oxtail Gratin -- I'm still thinking about it. That oxtail was pure heaven. Rich, tender, and packed with flavor. Grilled Prawn -- absolutely unreal. I wanted to order like 10 more immediately. Dessert: Stracciatella Ice Cream Suchhhh a good way to end the night. Rich, creamy, and those chocolate bits with the fresh coffee? Ugh, sooo good. The perfect balance of indulgent without feeling too heavy. Exactly how you want to end a dining experience. Everything was sooo flavorful and thoughtfully done. I genuinely cannot stop talking about this place. Already planning to come back this week because I need to try more things on the menu.

We were a party of 7 and we walked in on a Sunday dinner, and there was no wait. There was a wedding nearby in the restaurant, so it was a bit loud, but it was a good vibe. We ordered a bunch of dishes, such as the Platou Taranesc, Salata Bouef, Pomana Porcului, Pastrama, Mititei, Sarmale, Papanasi, and Coltunasi Platou Taranesc - country plate, basically bread and cold cut, Romanian style. It was a good experience but something I would normally not go out of my way for, since I don't like cold cut. But it is worth trying since Romanian food has a lot of cured meats and such, so the variety here is apparent Salata Bouef - bouef salad. Not beef salad. It is like a potato salad with chicken and veggies. Fairly hearty despite looking like small portions Pomana Porcului - traditional style pork fried meat - does not look fried, but it is a bit cured. A bit tough, maybe that's how they prepare it, but nonetheless flavorful. Pastrama - lamb pastrami - also a bit tough but cured. I liked the flavors but definitely need to eat it like a fork and knife style, not one bite Mititei - Romanian skinless sausages - kind of like a kofta (ground beef) and I loved this meat dish the most Sarmale - stuffed cabbage roll - one of the best cabbage rolls I have tried. Manageable size for each roll, and the cabbage has just the right amount of softness and the filling is super flavorful. Would recommend this 100% Papanasi - Romanian donuts - they say 2 pieces but the pieces are huge and sweet and hearty. A great way to conclude the meal, and enough to feed 4+ people after a nice meal Coltunasi - dumplings - we got beef. These are good but did not stand out. A nice starter Service was amazing and deserving of the auto 20% gratuity. The only miss is the water refills are not as frequent but the server gave us some sides on the house and gave us amazing recommendations of what to try for food for the first time and brought out everything we needed to enjoy the meal.

The restaurant is set up with two rooms - a bar in front with 4 seats for walk-ins and reservations and small tables and a back dining room tables though are quiet close together with a lot of noise. If you're looking for an intimate dining experience I would recommend King but it's very lively! The bartender was so nice and attentive and their wine list had solid options by the glass decently priced. For food, their menu is available online and changes frequently. You start with complimentary bread - basically crispy crackers drenched in olive oil. It was pretty messy to eat and I think I would've preferred regular bread. For food, you have three options for starters - panisse, olives and finochietta - and they also allow for all three combined at smaller portions. The olives and finochietta were standard and the panisse was crispy and flavorful. For second dish I got the risotto with sage and vin santo - tasted fine like a standard risotto but so overpriced in my opinion. For main I got the halibut- this was delicious with creamy sauce of chives, hollandaise and ruby chard and cooked well. It's a decent portion for the size but definitely pricey. Overall the meal was solid but pricey for the quality, portions and options you're given and wasn't worth it to me.

On one hand I like when restaurants have a smaller menu, as you know these are ingredients that are fresh to the season and that they excel in so I did not mind too much. We ordered several dishes to share, and all from the apps section. We ordered the tagliarini with white alba truffle, Cotechino (which was a mashed pork pieces, reminded me of spam, I was unimpressed), insalata, and Panisse (which was a huge hit!) My favorite was definitely the Panisse, which looked like a large french fry, but was made of chickpea! I was so pleasantly surprised and I would hands down, come back to King just for this dish! Overall, I like the creativity of this restaurant and would definitely come back for the Panisse!
