    For those of you solo eaters looking for an early dinner spot before the next thing on your schedule--this review is for you. The Fasóli white bean hummus is art. The espresso Frappé martini is an act of God. And... they let me borrow their portable phone charger with a smile on their face. Service? Impeccable. Vibes? Elevated but effortless. Timing? I was in and out like a well-fed, slightly buzzed efficiency queen. This little pit stop in my schedule was so inspiring, I felt called to write a review. Consider this your sign to go. 10/10 recommend.

    Chicken Souvlaki over Rice

    If you're looking for the best Greek experiences in Tribeca, this has to be near the top of the list. We went here for dinner and were so impressed with everything. The service was incredible, the ambience of the inside is inviting and the food was THE BEST! We started with the spreads (the smaller portion) and every one of them were incredible. For my entree I ordered the chicken souvlaki and it was literally perfect. I can't wait to return to The Greek sometime in the future. Such a great higher end Greek experience!

    Was so excited to finally get here! The Greek is one of the best restaurants in NYC! When you walk in, the beautiful hanging lights & greenery make this place absolutely gorgeous! First off you have to try the Achilles Heel...it's not only refreshing but easy on the eyes! The spreads to start are a must & so is the spanakopita! I thoroughly enjoyed my artichoke moussaka...creamy deliciousness! They enjoyed their lamb chops with lemon potato's as well as chicken souvlaki and rice! Both dishes were sensational. We finished with the greca cookie...dark chips, oats & walnuts, as well as the Americana coffee. I highly recommend one of the GREATS...The Greek!!! Xoxo

    I had a Greek friend who said the food in here is the best she had in USA. Loved the food, ambiance, and knowledgeable staff who suggested drinks and food.

    Get me to the Greek! Everything we ordered was excellent. The dips and pita were awesome. Delicious fresh pita. The grape leaves were amazing. The meatballs we inhaled. The chicken souvlaki was great. Been to Greece a bunch for work and this food is legit. I am a huge fan.

    this is an odd place to be sure, when we first arrived we thought we were in the wrong location because the entrance of this restaurant sort of looks like a deli or takeout place. the back of the restaurant is much nicer with a very cool looking bar. but this place is definitely more casual than their website leads you to believe. I'm not sure what vibe they are going for but the EDM music blasting definitely sends mixed signals. we had an early dinner reservation but it wasn't necessary because the place was empty except for one other couple. service was very friendly and the drinks were good, but the food was not. we ordered a number of dishes and they were all underwhelming. most of the dishes were overly greasy and featured too much cheese. i also noticed that the vegetables were poor quality which was pretty unappetizing.

    Lavraki - whole fish

    This is a very well-decorated establishment in TriBeCa. They had some great cocktail and wine options. We split the spreads, which came in two different size options for 18 dollars and 30. There were about four spreads in one order that came with fresh hot pita bread. We chose the 18 one, which was more than enough for our party of three! I would definitely get this again as all the spreads were delicious and left me wanting more. For my entree, I got the branzino which was topped with sautéed spinach and some carrots. The dish also came with half a lemon, which provided a great citrus-y addition to the fish. The branzino was very expertly cooked and had enough flavor on its own without needing any additional sauce. Given all the above, I would definitely come back again to try the other options! This seems like a great place to go to celebrate any occasion where splurging just a little will be rewarded with a satisfied appetite.

    Mezze dips
    Sejal M.

    Truly a hidden gem! Not one to venture down to tribeca for dinner but would definitely go back for The Greek. They did everything right - service was top tier, drinks were great and food was even better. Everything came out in a timely manner and was so delicious. The table split dips and I can confirm we all had to fight for the last bite. Each dip so unique and packed with flavor we were left wanting more. For my main, I got the Santorini salad with grilled chicken and this is what hit home for me. I've never had such a well balanced, salad with chicken this good. The others got the octopus entree and Greek salads. All of us were extremely satisfied. Not to mention it's not overly priced for the quality of food you're getting and the ambiance. You have to go here if you haven't been already.

    Horiatiki Salad and Chicken Souvlaki with rice
    Gab G.

    Ordered delivery, took a while but the food was tasty. Horiatiki salad, chicken souvlaki with rice, and a side of tzatziki were more than enough for my boyfriend and I. Baklava for dessert was good, too.

    I had a great experience at Chambers and can't wait to return to try more of their seasonal menu!…read moreThe restaurant has a lovely ambiance that feels upscale yet inviting and intimate. While I can't comment on the wine list personally, I know they are well-known for their extensive selection. After placing our order, we were delivered the sesame pizza bianca, which is a complimentary starter bread with dinner. The bread was a nice size and light and airy with a perfect crust and a delicious, crusty sesame seed bottom. The prawns were our starter and came three to a dish. They were sizable, though since they are served with the head and tail, there isn't a ton of meat on them. That said, they were flavorful and juicy with a nice sauce and just the right amount of spice that didn't overwhelm the fish. The snowdance chicken was the star of the show! It was incredibly juicy and tender with perfectly prepared skin, so I was happy to learn they keep this on the menu year-round. It was topped with some spinach that was solid, though nothing special. We also ordered a side of mushrooms which came with a creamy sauce and fish roe intended to be mixed at the table. The roe wasn't fishy at all but added a great element of umami to the flavorful, well-textured mushrooms. Overall, the service was very professional, though I thought the pacing could have been improved as the dishes came out a bit slowly. I would also recommend ordering at least two dishes per person, as the three plates we shared between two people felt like just a touch too little food. I'm already looking forward to going back--I'd try the winter chicories salad or the veal sweetbreads next time, but I'm open to exploring everything since the quality is so high. I noticed a side dish listed on their online menu that wasn't actually offered in person, so it might be worth double-checking if you have your heart set on a specific item.

I made reservations after seeing their special hot chocolate on social media and had a wonderful meal! Started off with the hiramasa which was fresh and went deliciously well with the citrus-y and sweet cara cara orange, as well as the aji peppers! The castelfranco chickory salad was fresh, crunchy, slightly creamy and slightly tangy - basically everything you need in an appetizing salad! Their house sesame bread was fluffy and chewy with a good amount of sesame flavor without having too many seeds. For mains, the farfelle was very interesting and tasty! The pasta was al dente and the sauce was addicting! At first I was wondering if it would resemble a nut butter, but it was creamy with very prominent walnut flavors and interesting texture (perhaps from the blended walnut skin component?). The addition of burrata and other cheeses was perfect for a cheese-lover like me. The pork chop was flavorful, well-seasoned, and juicy. The leek and cabbage mixture soaked up all the sauce and I wish there was more! Their special hot chocolate with an espresso martini marshmallow was fire!!!! Hot chocolate was decadent, not too thick, and not too sweet. The toasted marshmallow melted quickly but definitely had coffee and alcohol flavors. The amount per serving doesn't appear a lot but appropriate considering how rich it is. The mascarpone dessert had a great balance of fluffy cream, extremely crispy phyllo, and crunchy nuts with a touch of chocolate and vanilla! For drinks, I was really curious about the bi lemongrass but they ran out. Staff recommended the semiplume, which felt like a beer, tea, and sparkling wine all at once! Loved the floral aroma and bitter tea notes. My partner's cocktails were also well executed. Staff were nice and friendly. We got seats right by the kitchen so staff often checked in with us, including the chef!! Vibes were intimate with the dim lighting and minimalist decor. Definitely want to come back to check out their chicken and other dishes!!

All three had very strong flavors that were not balanced with the rest of the drink. After we finished our drinks, we waited an especially long time for the waitress to come back, check on us, and give us our bill. It was especially frustrating because we were the only ones in the bar at this point and we could hear them chatting downstairs. Overall, both service and the drinks need improvement.

David made our night. The only reason I would ever walk back into this place is to sit at the bar and let David mesmerize me. FOOD: Broccoli rabe was fresh, but I needed a steak knife to cut through it. It was very al dente. Not cut properly, which is to cut crosses in the stems. Salad was fresh and crisp, high quality fennel and greens. Lovely. Agnoletti was divine. Home made. Focaccia very good with subtle flavors and just the right crust. Olive oil, good.

You both have to order it." He was very cold, a robot. To enjoy ourselves, we had to push through the horrible treatment. Too bad for the waiter, when I asked about the special pasta, he butchered the pronunciation, giving me a soft pitch to teach him Italian. I blasted him. C'est la vie.
