This was probably the best English food I've had in NYC - bottom line. Also the service was very attentive, the floor manager came over to check on our meal twice, which I appreciated. This restaurant truly went above and beyond to exceed the high standards that it has set. Ordered the scotch egg with house-made ketchup (9/10), the steak tar-tar (10/10), the truffle risotto (9/10 - a little too heavy on the Parmesan for my taste), the cheese burger with fries (8/10 - very good, but I would've preferred a bit of a drier burger), and the strawberry shortcake dessert (10/10). I overheard another table compliment the fish and chips here, so I would definitely return to try that in the near future. Also, the sourdough bread with salted butter was absolutely delicious! read more

The Clocktower - Complimentary bread from the kitchen. - British Near Me - New York, New York

We came in for lunch for restaurant week that runs about $26 for a two course menu. Our server was great and the food was also very good. The bread they serve looks good, but was really tough. The butter was delicious but breaking through the tough, rubbery exterior of the bread made it tough to eat. Looking around, most people didn't even touch it. The foie gras parfait was nicely plated and came with a side of bread. The lentils added a nice texture to the creamy liver dish. It was also sort of sweet and nutty, with small prices or duck sprinkled around. The risotto with lobster reduction was very good but could have been a little warmer. The ox cheek and ale pie was delicious. It came with an oyster sauce they pour tableside and had a delicious dark sauce that encircles the pie. The crust was perfect, but again, I thought the food could have been warmer. The flavors were great, service was spectacular, but the timing at which the food came out could have been better. We saw them bring our entrees out right after our first courses made their way to the table so they turned around and brought it back in, which is probably why the food was more on the lukewarm side. Maybe a little miscommunication on the part of timing. But don't let that stop you from paying them a visit. The restaurant is up a set of spiral stairs. They've also got a cool bar to sit and grab a cocktail while you wait. read more

The Clocktower - Ambiance - British Near Me - New York, New York

It's good, but not great, especially for a starred restaurant. Came here on a Tuesday night for a dinner with colleagues. Service was generally good, but they misheard one of our drink orders and brought us the wrong cocktail by mistake (we'd ordered a wine), and did not offer to take it off the bill. I don't remember what everyone else got, but I had the fluke chop. It was...okay. It had a lot of little bones. Their dessert menu is pretty good, and they make a show about bringing out the baked Alaska and setting it on fire. I'm glad I went, but probably would not go back. read more

Came here for a couple of quick drinks. Sat at the bar with a friend at lunch time. The service was great and prompt. I got the American cereal cocktail and it was nice and punchy. It came in an awesome/cute glass as well. Also ordered the buttermilk fried chicken. So nice and tender I couldn't stop myself from demolishing it. 4 drinks and chicken tenders were $100 with tax and tip. There's also a pool table there in case anyone is interested in playing. Cocktails cost circa $18-20 each. read more

- Hella expensive - But its worth the splurge - My favorite drink was the cereal killer. It tasted just like alcoholic cereal - The $100 steak didn't taste very $100 worthy, but I can say I did it - Everything is delicious, and plentiful - I love the potatoes - I really just came here to tell you about the cereal killer. It's unlike anything you ever had, or will ever have read more

Upscale experience with thoughtful service (personalized to the occasion), creative drinks, and impeccable food!! We chose to come to Clocktower because of their Michelin star and we were thoroughly impressed with the food and service. Up a set of winding staircase from the Edition Hotel lies an expansive restaurant, complete with a bar and a pool table. The dining space spans three rooms, and it feels like you're dining in a mansion's drawing room. With tasteful gallery-style black and white portraits on the walls and a stately crackling fireplace, The Clocktower provides a cozy and intimate experience for all diners. We were celebrating our anniversary, which the boyfriend thoughtfully included in our reservation. The Clocktower, in response, provided us with a hand-written card that greeted us at our table, congratulating us on our anniversary. We were served complimentary champagne by the sommelier. And after our meal, we were treated to complimentary dessert, comprised of a mango mousse cake (with a candle!), and two almond tarts, all of which were delightfully light and not too sweet. Our meal: - Complimentary bread: The softest and warmest (actually quite hot) complimentary bread! The hot steam escaped as I broke apart the bread and for once, I didn't have to gut the bread because the crust was crisp enough to have a bite but not sharp enough to cut the roof of my mouth. - Roasted Maine Scallops: Hands down, BEST scallops we have ever had. Yes, we do have a running list because we both love seared scallops. These were perfectly seared at the top so that it was a light crisp and the whole dish was so cohesive paired the bed of cauliflower crumble, which was both tart and creamy. -Dry aged Creekstone Beef Tartare: We love a good tartare, and the wild mushrooms were such a nice touch (we love mushrooms). The penny bun biscuit that topped the beef tartare can be described as giant Chex mix rye chips, shaped like mushrooms. A playful and creative touch. -Roasted Long Island Duck: Hands down, BEST duck (aside from Hong Kong style duck) that we have ever had. The presentation of the duck was much like a thick slab of pork belly, and the cut had the juiciness and richness of pork belly, which we've never experienced with roasted duck. It was the most tender and succulent duck and we highly highly recommend it. The foie gras skewer was a surprising addition but paired nicely with the duck to yield a rich mouthful. -Braised Atlantic Halibut: Great dish that was overshadowed by the perfect duck. The halibut had a nice crispy sear on the top. We really enjoyed the chestnut gnocchi, which was smooth in consistency. The drink menu was filled with creative cocktails. My French Connection, served in a rustic tin moscow mule-like cup, was sweet and fragrant. I appreciated the candied ginger that topped the drink. The American Cereal Killer was more whiskey than I would like, since I was drawn to the "cereal milk" that it boasted. It was served in a glass version of the traditional single serve paper milk carton. Really cool glassware. Thank you so much to The Clocktower for a wonderful dining experience. We will be returning with friends in tow and we can't wait to see what you'll cook up next! read more

The Clocktower - a plate of dessert and a candle - British Near Me - New York, New York

From the uncomfortably quiet and empty dining room to the embarrassing service, this is the first Michelin-starred establishment that has caused me to reconsider the integrity of Michelin rankings and make me wonder just who it is that has to be bribed to get these stars. The Clocktower will make me take pause before considering any other one star from here on out. To be fair, I had the Afternoon Tea service, rather than dinner or lunch, but if you're open during those hours, you must meet your guests' expectations. The Clocktower, on the other hand, clearly views 3-5pm from Friday to Sunday as an opportunity to slack on food and service, and as a ripe opportunity to bilk $55 from their guests on a pre fixe "Afternoon Tea" service. Now, I've never had a proper "Afternoon Tea" in the British style, but I thought the prospect was intriguing at the very least. Fancy little munchies, teas of various sorts (of which I know very little), and just the right amount of pretension in the air could make the whole ritual enjoyable, or maybe, as Wikipedia even put it, "taken as a treat in a hotel" after a particularly busy week. The Clocktower, which offers "tastes of contemporary London" just steps away from Madison Square Park according to its website (not to mention the whole Michelin star thing) seemed like the perfect place to make my initial foray into pretentious Anglophile tea sipping. I could not have been more wrong. The visit started off well enough, finding the admittedly gorgeous spiral staircase in the more vibrant downstairs bar area of the hotel and being greeted by name by the host. Once seated in the ghost town of a dining room, we received the pre fixe menu consisting of your expected Afternoon Tea fare; various sandwiches, biscuits, jams, and the like. There were a number of teas to choose from as well. We immediately noticed that my guest and I had two different tea menus; no big deal, I would have never known about the Earl Grey option had I dined alone, but I opted for the White tea ($5 supp) anyway. Still, odd that a place that has a Michelin star doesn't have conforming menus. It's fine dining, not *Applebee's Daily Lunch Special. Once the food made it to the table (which felt like an eternity given we didn't have any choices to make, but in a large, silent room with only one other table of guests, could have been an acceptable wait) we immediately noticed that the sandwiches didn't match what was on either of our menus (presumably there is a different, third menu that neither of us received where all the sandwiches come on white bread and the desserts are just a series of question marks). We asked the server about this discrepancy, who insisted on checking the menu with us (presumably in the event we couldn't read the word "pumpernickel" or didn't understand that pumpernickel, wheat, and rye breads all looked different than white bread), and had no real explanation. Ok, then. Moving on to desserts, I couldn't even tell you what we ate. Just look at the menu description and look what was served on the little tiered thing. Do you see any tarts? (tart - a baked dish consisting of a filling over a pastry base). How about anything remotely resembling a sandwich? Me either. Given the experience with the sandwich bread situation, I didn't bother asking what the desserts were. I'm just grateful I don't have a food allergy; the Clocktower would be a VERY dangerous place to eat. On top of everything else, as others have noted, it took quite some time to find a server to ask for the check. This was not an Afternoon Tea experience by any stretch of the imagination; this was a way for the Clocktower to repackage old food as Afternoon Tea hors d'oeuvres and trick you into paying $55 for what would otherwise be their garbage (the gastrointestinal distress that followed from eating their aged seafood sandwiches support this theory). The servers (and the kitchen for that matter) have no idea what the menu says or offers; there is no "experience" whatsoever (aka explanation of the tea, the food, the ritual, etc.); and the entire thing takes place in an uncomfortably large and silent dining room. Unless you're into having tea at the Hotel California (but with worse food, no Eagles song, and nothing supernatural about it), this place probably won't be for you. *this is an unfair insult to Applebee's, whose staff is often quite familiar with the specials. read more

We absolutely loved the afternoon tea. I had no idea what to expect as I had never done something like this before. Would it be stuffy? Pretentious? Boring? None of the above! We sat down in a fabulously decorated room and was immediately attended to by a fun waiter who gave us just the right amount of attention the whole time. Only a few tables were populated so the setting felt very intimate. The tea selection was varied and thankfully included a couple non-caffeinated varieties. The tea was accompanied by a healthy amount of savories, sweets, and honeys. All were appropriate for a proper afternoon tea and were clearly made with attention to detail. I would 100% recommend the afternoon tea experience if you or your loved one is into it. Worth every penny. read more

The Clocktower was just all around amazing! My boyfriend and I got there 15 min. before our reservation and started off with drinks at the bar. The bartender was cool to talk with and the drinks were well made. There was also a pool table in an intimate room between the bar room and the dining room - wish we had known about it earlier! The service was great and I really can't stop thinking about the food! We got the Chicken Liver & Foie Gras Parfait (snack), Crab Cocktail Tart (starter), Truffle Risotto (Main), Beef Wellington (Main), Strawberry Eton Mess (dessert), and Warm Sticky Toffee Pudding (dessert). I think the word crab just called out to me at first glance so I was stuck on it without really reading the other starter options haha. It was tasty, but I would definitely want to try the Seared Diver Scallops next time or the Berner's Tavern Macaroni and Cheese, which our waitress had recommended. We just didn't get it because we were already getting the Truffle Risotto, which was mouthwateringly flavorful. And the Beef Wellington was, of course, fantastic. Both our desserts were great, but the Warm Sticky Toffee Pudding was the winner! We realized towards the end that we didn't receive their bread and butter to start with but were too satisfied with everything else to mind haha. We did get complimentary glasses of champagne for our anniversary celebration :) read more

Had dinner here last weekend for F's birthday. I like the ambiance in here; dim and romantic. The high ceilings and the wall to wall gold framed images make quite a statement. We were told by the hostess that we only had until 9:15 until they had another party booked for the table. It's always annoying to hear this; I'm sure it's a necessary practice so that they can seat as many parties as possible in a night, but please keep that practice behind closed doors. In the end, there were plenty of tables open and we weren't asked to leave... but in the back of our minds, it was lingering there and we opted not to order extra drinks after we finished our bottle of wine. They started us off with a small glass of sparkling wine because they knew we were there to celebrate a birthday, which was very nice. We ordered the $125 seafood platter to start. It read like it would be huge and at that price point we thought it would be so we didn't order any additional appetizers... but it turned out to be very small. I'm sure I could've easily finished the whole platter myself. I ordered the pork chop. It was well cooked, but there was lots of fat - and in the dimness of the restaurant, you couldn't always see if it was meat or fat. I don't eat the fat on meats so whenever I got a bite of fat, I had to suppress the urge to spit it out (fancy place as it is). But others who love fat might like this; A joked that it sounds delicious. Friends ordered the duck, lamb and burger and all seemed to enjoy their dishes. F got the pistachio soufflé. This takes 20 minutes to make but it's worth the wait. It was light, fluffy and delicious. A and I shared the warm mango pudding. Texturally, I thought it was kinda weird and flavor wise, there was nothing special about it. F and J tried a bite each, but no one on the table liked the dish much. Most of it was left. The service isn't very warm or affable. It started out very friendly when we got the sparkling wine and waters... but we waited a while before a waiter came to take our order and even then, he only came by after we waved him over. (We had been told we had to leave by a certain time, so we wanted to make sure we can place our appetizer order early so we would have timers leisurely enjoy our entrées.) When he came by, he told us he would prefer if we ordered everything all together instead of just the appetizer cuz it would make things easier. Ok. Luckily, by the time he arrived to our table, we all knew what we wanted so it was fine. Overall, we had a solid 3 star experience. The chef has a Michelin star restaurant in the UK, so I am glad we tried it, but I don't think I will be looking to dine there if I'm ever visiting the country based on this dining experience. read more

Came for brunch a few weeks ago and we had a great experience! The space is located upstairs from a hotel lobby so we had to go looking for it a bit. Brunch is located in a smaller dining area that the hostess led us to and it wasn't very crowded for a Sunday. Funny enough, we didn't really try the brunch food and stuck with the lunch options which were pretty good. The "Mac and Cheese" had great sauce and the meat melted in your mouth. That being said, it was not what I expected so putting that out there. The highlight of this meal was definitely the desert. We shared a crème brûlée with pina colada sorbet which turned out to be such a good combination. Brunch was good, but I would want to come back for dinner! read more

The Clocktower - Pictures on the wall - British Near Me - New York, New York

I have been dying to try this place ever since it opened, and it did not disappoint. The decor is incredible - paintings all over the place, pool table, fancy bar... it's got everything. The winding staircase was fun too :) First of all, can we talk about the complimentary bread?!? It was served warm but honestly it's some of the best bread I've ever had. Chewy, flavorful.... the pieces were big but I think I had at least 2 if not 3. SO GOOD. I had the French Connection which tasted like a Moscow Mule. Their cocktails were interesting and I loved the presentation but the serial killer was a bit too strong for me. Interesting, but just way too strong. On to the food.... the beef tartare and scallops were amazing! The potatoes were a bit too cheesy/buttery for me. The asparagus with truffles was so unique and surprisingly pretty tasty. Duck was amazing - and so was the steak. Overall, great meal with great company. Highly recommended! read more

We came here late for a same-day dinner reservation and had a nice date, though an overall meh culinary experience. I wouldn't say I regret coming here, but definitely won't repeat. For our starters, the scotch egg tasted good, and it was a good scotch egg relative to what I've had in the US, but that bar is quite low. The maine scallop was probably my favorite dish. It was well seasoned and had some unique flavors, with the leak-cream sauce. It had a good number of scallops, but I felt that the texture of the dish was a bit one-note and very soft to really be enjoyable. The Foie Gras with Orange wasn't my favorite. I personally didn't find that the sweetness of the orange able to compliment the rich flavors of the food gras. I also think that the fish would have done better with some crispier bread. We had a beef Wellington as our main, which was the main reason we came here. I will say that it was perfectly cooked, but found it under seasoned. The sauce helped, but it didn't completely win me over. The potatoes were decent (as I would expect at any restaurant) but I felt that the bone marrow didn't really add anything to the meal. It kinda felt that the bone marrow was there to justify the cost of the meal, and it wasn't really additive. The drinks were quite good and the ambience of the restaurant were on par with what I would expect, though it was a bit ritzier than what I was expecting and felt underdressed. read more

We didn't get them when we went but we will definitely come back for them. The food we did order, however, was fantastic. There isnt anything in their menu we don't want to try.

Direction from the building entrance : walk straight ahead to the spiral staircase and walk up to the 2nd Floor. The hostess there will seat you to your table. Service : the waiter was excellent and all staff members were very polite. They knew the menu and were able to answer all my questions. They do have a som if you need one. We requested for a specific type of table on our reservation and we're able to accommodate. Food : Ordered 1/2 dozen Kumamoto oysters, Berners Tavern Macaroni and cheese (morels, slow-cooked ox cheek), and the Long Island duck (roasted hen of the woods mushroom, confit leg, kohlrabi and peach salad). Every dish tastes delicious. The saltiness of the duck is perfectly balanced when you eat it with the kohlrabi. At the bottom of the kohlrabi they have more duck which was a nice surprise. The max and cheese is a bit heavy but still delicious! I would definitely come back. Overall, a lovely experience with attentive service and amazing prepared food & drinks. read more

I was staying at the New York EDITION hotel and decided to come down for lunch. And I'm so glad I did - the food was wonderful. To start, I had the complimentary sourdough which was AMAZING. I literally wanted to buy a few more to take with me to-go. I opted for the 2-course lunch for which I chose the beef tartare and the sauteed skate, which were both lovely. The beef tartare was fresh and well-seasoned. The skate was cooked to perfection with the top still crispy. I was on a conference call / working on my laptop and the staff were super understanding and helped me rearrange the table to put the food down. The ambiance / decor are a little old-fashioned looking, but overall, would highly recommend this place! read more

A wonderful visit. On top of all. the service was amazing. The Gentleman serviced us with warm smile and professionalism throughout the dinner. Each course was introduced and explained with details. The appetizer was absolutely delightful. We ordered foie gras and chicken liver Parfait. The presentation was innovative and upscale. The parfait came with a sour taste which was really appetizing. I got the lamb for entree. The taste was well-balanced. Lamb was perfectly cooked: juicy, tender, and flavorful. Nonetheless, the portion of my entree could be a bit bigger, considering my friend's duck breast came with two sides and mine came with one. Loved the chocolate at the end of the dinner.

My fiance and I are from the philly area and are big Stephen Starr fans so while we were visiting NYC we wanted to try one of his restaurants and had heard good things about the clocktower. We were not disappointed. We made reservations on the later side on a Saturday night so it wasn't overly crowded or loud- it was actually quite quiet considering the beautiful high ceilings in the main dining room. The overall atmosphere was cozy and moody with soft light that reminded me of being in an old, grand library. The service was exceptional throughout the meal. My fiance and I both tried a cocktail to start and then I switched to a glass of wine with dinner. All the beverages were great. We started with the scallops and the beef tartare. Both appetizers were delicious but the scallops were especially tasty and cooked perfectly. For dinner we decided to share the 40 day dry aged prime rib which was also delicious plus the sides were amazing too, especially the foie gras salad. my fiance, who likes potatoes more than me, thought the potato gratin was exceptional. For dessert we had the Banoffee tarte which was STELLAR. overall, we had a great meal here and would definitely return. read more

But strangely I was hoping there will be actual clocks at the restaurant, but there were mainly just pictures. Food: The food was really good specifically the Scallops and the New York Stripe (which was an additional $20). What we both really liked was the free bread that they gave us in the beginning. The bread was so hot but so soft on the inside while it came with homemade butter. Service: The service was good and perfect in my opinion as they were quick and efficient.

Loved my first experience at The Clocktower! I went on a short lunch break for my birthday that my manager took me to. Unfortunately we didn't have a ton of time or we would have ordered more courses but what we had was great. The sourdough bread they bring out is delicious and perfectly hot out the oven. For my meal I ordered the pan seared cod which was so delicious I was spooning the sauce into my mouth like soup when the fish was gone. My boss had the burrata salad which was quite good. Word of note is that the portions are quite small for the price but very good. They brought me out a chocolate cake for a birthday dessert that was really good, and finished us off with scottish shortbread and English toffee treats that were delicious. The ambiance is really cool with a beautiful bar and billiard room and gold picture frames all around. This is a great spot for a business lunch or happy hour. read more

Enjoyed restaurant week lunch. Started with complimentary warm sourdough bread. 1st course was the duck sausage cassoulet creatively packed in a mustard jar. Hearty and tasty - could be someone's full meal (but not me of course) 2nd course was the 6oz roasted chicken that had a subtle creamy dark green sauce tucked under the skin. Served atop lentils. Much lighter than the 1st course. 3rd course was the sticky toffee pudding. Served ball-shaped and covered with hazelnut crumble. Accompanied by pear-ginger sorbet. Not my typical cuisine to try but I did enjoy the meal and experience. The RW menu is different from the regular lunch and dinner menus (except for one salad and one dessert). RW lunch nonetheless was a nice introduction to the types of creations churned out by the kitchen read more

The Clocktower is wonderful for a special occasion. The space itself is very cool - make sure to wander through all the rooms and check out the purple billiard room! Service is great and you definitely will not feel rushed at any point! Favorite appetizer was the quail frumenty. I had no idea what to expect but it was a small bowl of a risotto-like stew with pieces of delicate quail, a tiny scotch egg, and the wonderful flavor of wild mushrooms. Served with a mushroom tea on the side and a liver mousse. It was fantastic and perfect for a cold winter night!! Also delicious was the king crab and the marinated yellowtail. For entrees, both the duck and the lamb were sensational and cooked beautifully. The macaroni and cheese with slow cooked ox cheek and mushrooms was also delicious but unfortunately was over salted. So salty that my mother couldn't eat more than half the plate! I noticed my lamb was too salty, as well, but not as overpoweringly so as the mac and cheese. This was definitely disappointing. For dessert, don't miss the apple tarte tatin- it's HUGE and decadent doused in thick caramel sauce. The sticky toffee pudding was possibly the best sticky toffee I've ever had. All in all, a very delicious meal with great ambiance and service. Prices are steep so save for a special occasion! read more
