Came 3 days in a row for breakfast since it was part of our hotel perk. Salmon tower, breakfast Sandwich, shakshouka, and avocado toast were all scrumptious! A bit pricy if we had to pay... but def worth while if u r part of the Marriott family - Don't skip on this complimentary breakfast!

Such a great hidden gem located in the W Hotel in Union Square. The bar has a great ambiance that is warm and inviting. The bartenders are also all awesome! They truly care about how your drink tastes and do not mind to remake it if it's not to your liking. Oysters are a must. I did the chefs selection and it did not disappoint. Gulf of Mexico yellowfin tuna is AMAZING. For dinner I had the seared tuna and my partner had the Dover sole. By this point we were not very hungry and while both were delicious, would probably just do one main meal next time. The best part was I had to take a work call and upstairs there are small phone booths that are nice and quiet that make it easy!

Seared tuna and lobster pasta

This restaurant was very lively on a Monday! The food is VERY seafood focused but this was known before we went. For apps, we got the crudo sampler and the shrimp. The shrimp were already de-headed (thank goodness) and very tasty. You could tell they only used the freshest fish in the crudo. For mains, we had the lobster pasta and seared tuna. The seared tuna had a crust on it like a usual steak, but the star of the show was the lobster pasta - - delicious. Dessert was a smores cake, which had great marshmallow fluff but graham cracker cake interior was fine. Only weird piece was that the fire alarm went off for five minutes. The lights came on, but the staff instructed us to continue dining because it was the hotel's fire alarm. This was quite disruptive to dinner as it was very loud and they did not really apologize for it...

Seafood is my game & Seahorse is seafood focused in a stunning room. Now I'm mostly pescatarian so this is my element. This place is uber popular and the bar fills fast, that said I sat at a small table near the bar as requested. Ate: NJ fluke crudo Steelhead salmon with cippolimi Cauliflower & romesco Total: $79 There's no bread service. The fluke was blah just blah- fish & olive oil kind of a waste. The other dishes were great and I would order again. The toilet paper wasn't changed in the uncleared bathroom & and hat was a turnoff.

On my first visit here, the experience was brutal. Insanely slow service at the bar even though the place was empty. I went back to try the food. The space itself is really cute and the service was good. I can't fathom how or why they thought one unisex bathroom is sufficient for a venue of this size (they have more but it's super far and on a different floor, very weird) The food was ok but honestly nothing special. Very average which isn't good enough to warrant returning in this city. Which is super disappointing since I live right around the corner and waited for years for this to open.

Mediocre at best

This is a cute restaurant that anchors the W hotel Union Square. They serve breakfast (not that well) lunch and dinner and they have cocktails until 11 pm. They stop serving dinner by 9 pm so get there early. This morning 11/2/25, the service was a 2 and the food was too. The decor is pretty and it's definitely better for drinks after 5 pm. No happy hour though

Seahorse is a great seafood restaurant across from Union Square. The service is as good as the food. The room is beautiful. Totally upscale experience.

FRESHEST SEAFOOD I'VE HAD IN AMERICA By far, the freshest seafood I have ever had in Manhattan. Likely the fresher seafood I've ever had in the United States. Everything was absolutely excellent. The lobster pasta as well as the steak with well done, french fries was an added surprise to a seafood heavy menu. Service was absolutely top-notch. The owner even came by to say hello. The vibe is excellent and it is in such a hip location. Will be back over and over and over ! One of the best new restaurants in Manhattan and very excited to come back.

Soapbox Social + Work Life Balance

Incredible from start to finish! My husband and I dined on Friday night at 730 and had an amazing night- this was truly a dream meal for me! I got 2 of each of the oysters (briny, fresh, the perfect mouthful), we split the prawns (succulent, perfectly spiced, delicious), and paired them with the Fall salad - 10/10 recommend. For entrees I got the spicy lobster pasta which had CHUNKS of lobster meat and the sundried tomatoes were the absolute perfect addition - it was just the right serving size and still managed to be light. My husband got the NY strip, and he loved it! For dessert he got the chocolate mousse (the caramel topping was everything) and I of course had to try the carrot cake - just as amazing as everyone says. My husband has celiac disease and we so appreciated how attentive Seahorse was without being overbearing; our waiter even suggested things he thought we would like. Drinks wise, you cannot beat the prices for the quality you get here - I got the Work Life balance, my husband got the Soapbox Social, and they were exactly the right accompaniments for our appetizers. For dinner I got a fabulous dry rosé (Peyrassol) and my husband had his favorite gin twist (Hendricks). My espresso martini was also a 10/10. And the setting....! All the soft dim lighting was romantic and on trend; truly I did not want to leave! The mural was gorgeous as was the fish scale back bar. I have used "perfect" throughout this review because this truly was a dream meal for me; I have recommended Seahorse multiple times to people in the few days since I've been here. It's also incredibly simple to get to, just steps away from the Union sq 14th st subway station Thank you for a memorable night and some of the best food I've ever had, Seahorse! Miss ya already & cannot wait to come back!

Cauliflower with romanesco sauce on the side and fries.
Andrea J.

This place was bumpin'! Stopped in after checking out the renovated W (gorgeous) and had some drinks. While I can't speak to the seafood, the appetizer and side were delicious that we chose to nibble on (hello hot crispy fries! ). The bread also came out piping hot and was so fresh. The service was wonderful and the crowd was buzzing. Nice wine selection and the kitchen was beyond accommodating for food restrictions. Will be back!

Dave S.

Great food, atmosphere and service. Fresh oysters, amazing prawns to start among other really nice dishes. Mains included Dover Sole, Lobster Cavatelli, Strip Steak, Tuna AuPovire and others. Everything was super fresh and flavorful. We finished with an amazing array of desserts including incredible carrot cake and chocolate mousse with caramel sauce. Solid coffee too. Beautiful decor, will be back again shortly.

The lobster is a little chewy, but the spicy claws were very flavorful. All of the crab had so much meat and the seasonings were all amazing. Surprisingly, the iron steak was one of our favorites despite this being a seafood spot. The waiter did say to just check mark the paper instead of quantities, but they end up bringing you 2 of everything you order. The sweet & spicy fish is also very solid, garlic noodles were buttery, and even their iced tea was super refreshing. Could not recommend this place more!! Bonus: they play a great 2000s throwback playlist that got us singing along and dancing while we were peeling all our seafood to pass the time. Shoutout to whichever employee put that playlist together!

This is exactly the kind of place that works well when you need something fast but still high quality. Service stood out. Jeanine was excellent; she quickly understood our time constraint, guided us to the right dishes, and kept everything moving without making it feel rushed. At one point we accidentally put a plastic menu over a lit candle, and she handled it immediately and made the moment feel light rather than awkward. The atmosphere was lively and full; the place was packed, but it still felt organized rather than chaotic. The bar looked well stocked, and the overall ambience worked well for a pre-train, Times Square-adjacent stop. Food was solid, with a few standouts. The salmon tartare with sesame crackers was excellent; clean, fresh, and well balanced. Jeanine recommended the shrimp avocado sliders, and that was the right call; they were outstanding. Happy hour oysters were fresh and well balanced. Littleneck clams were good, though slightly less compelling than the oysters. The fish tacos were good but not particularly memorable. Fried calamari was well executed, though the accompanying sauce could have used a little more flavor. The hot sauce, assuming it is made in house, was excellent and added a much better punch to the seafood. Drinks from the happy hour menu, including the Pink Flamingo and margarita, were good and consistent. I would come back to try more from the main menu. If you like seafood, this is a strong option for the price point and location, especially during happy hour.

I find it oftentimes to be overpriced, coming with a lot of bells and whistles and lacking in flavor compared to Little Thailand in Queens where I grew up. This place is an exception! From beginning to end everything was excellent. The pork belly was the perfect temperature of warm, tender, a bit acidic/sour (YUM), and so delightful. I can see why many reviews recommend it. The crab curry was so nice and clean and fresh. The crab was so tender, and the curry strong, and went beautifully with the rice. It's actually such a sleeper hit, and we added it onto our order last minute. The steamed branzino was delicious, too - tender, limey, sour, sweet, a little heat - it's got everything!! And it tasted so so clean. Beware! There are tiny fish bones, so be careful as you're eating it. The dessert was good too, and very authentic.

From the moment I entered the restaurant, I knew the experience was going to be next level. Thank you Jay for seating me and my friend at the best table in the house. Thank you to our phenomenal server Shamim. Your service was really over the top stellar. Soon as you sit at the table, menus are placed. Complimentary delicious bread, water, and warm hand towels are provided to clean your hands. The seafood buffet is $168 and you can order everything, as many times as you like. The buffet is contactless. The food is served to you at your table. Because the food is served in a manner that is based on a shared dining experience. All guests at the table have to order either buffet or Prix Fix menu. My order of Rockefeller oysters, and clams were simply the best I ever tasted. The way they were prepared is the only way I want to taste them. The next dishes they brought out were fried shrimp, sizzling shrimp scampi. Soft shell crab was cooked to perfection. My garlic butter Nova Scotia Lobster was divine. Cooked, and served to perfection! Next the sizzling sea bass was brought to the table! O-M-G! Within a second after arriving to our table still sizzling. Jose came to personally debone the fish (never had that done before) and he added the Thai chili sauce. At this point, my body was in a foodie coma! After a brief clean up of our table. I left our dining room, and went to the ladies room. When you walk in the ladies room, between the floral scent, and decor you are in awe of the details, the bathroom was dreamy. Back at the table our two servers set up a Picasso style dessert with hand drawn chocolate with the ice cream and a delicious cheesecake. Thank you for the birthday wishes, and celebration for my friend. José out did his self with his talented art skills. Special thanks to the Manager Sam for stopping by every table to see if everything was to our satisfaction. It was beyond our satisfaction. Tip: Make reservations even if your a party of two. Be sure all guests arrive at the same time. Tip#2: The upstairs level is perfect for large gatherings, corporate events, holiday events, bridal, baby showers, bar/bat mitvah's, and industry events.

LOVE the rococo inspiration. The opulent decor made me feel like I'm dining in a palace. Most of the tables are set up in private rooms too so you can have your own space for your feast. The all-you-can-eat menu is made fresh to order, not sitting out like a typical buffet, which makes a huge difference in quality. I loved the seafood selection: lobster, crab, shrimp, oysters, clams, mussels, octopus, fish, calamari ... you name it. What really stood out to me was how much variety there is. Even the steak, fried rice, noodles, lamb, and veggies were delicious. The service was super attentive and quick with bringing out dishes. The price is definitely a splurge, but worth it for the experience and high qualit. It's not just a meal, it's a whole vibe. I would absolutely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable, over-the-top dining experience in Times Square!
