    Sliders
    Isabella B.

    This is an ideal spot to relax with a drink and light bite or come chill at the bar by yourself or with friends. The waiter was very kind and attentive to what I wanted to order, as well as provided recommendations when it came to light bites. I ordered the sliders, which come with black truffle sauce, brie, and thinly sliced pickles. These sliders were cooked perfectly, and the balance of sauce, cheese, and pickles were top-tier sliders. Since I don't drink, I usually order a lemonade because it can indicate how the quality of the water and lemons. Odd thing to review out of many drinks on their menu but recommend trying it. I would most definitely be coming back to have the full dining experience since I only came for a quick bite and sip

    Went for a dinner w friends on a Wednesday Great ambiance, great service! Friendly and very pleasant. Delicious food, u can find all kinds of appetizers from sushi to pizza. Beautiful hotel, pet friendly

    The Mark burger and fries

    I should cut them a break because I was literally there on the day of the Met Gala, but... the service was not very attentive and the food was average, if not a little below. The burger was totally overwhelmed by their special sauce, and I picked off SO many pickles. I just felt like they weren't paying attention to the customers and the staff wasn't very present in the dining room.

    Warm Chocolate Cake

    A group of 9 of us came here for a company dinner. Needless to say the ambience and decor of the Mark restaurant, situated inside the Mark Hotel exceeds its reputation. But I'm afraid besides the steak entrée (which was 10/10), not much else stood out to me. For appetizers, we had grilled artichoke (friends loved it, i am not a fan), endives salad and kale salad both of which needed seasoning. Desserts were good but did not stick out to me. The service was great, waiters were attentive and consistently filled our waters. However, one server had accidentally tipped a glass of wine down my colleague's dress. I'm hoping this was a one off occurrence, though Jean Georges establishments are held up to very high standards. All in all, good experience if it were not for the accidental spill. It was also extremely expensive for the what we were served.

    Delicious food and amazing ambiance! We dined at The Mark Restaurant for a work lunch to entertain some business partners. We ordered a number of items for the table - Avocado Toast, Spicy Tuna Tartare, Burrata, Whole Roasted Cauliflower, and the Halibut. Every dish we had was phenomenal and the service was fantastic. The wait staff were very friendly and attentive.

    Warm Shrimp Salad
    Karen Y.

    Elevated French dining is found here! The standout here is the service: from the entrance, to being seated, all throughout the meal, to the quality of the doggy bag they handed us for leftovers: the service is excellent here. The distance to the park also makes it a great spot to go to for lunch before a walk in the park. The crispy salmon sushi is a great appetizer! The bed of sushi rice is thick and crunchy. The salmon itself is fresh and tender, if a little chewy. The hamachi sashimi is a little sour, but overall, had fresh texture. The soy yuzu dressing added a bright acidic note to the fatty fish. The warm shrimp salad was delicious! The champagne vinegar dressing was a pop of flavor on the bed of shrimp and veggies. After we finished, we asked for a to-go box for leftovers, which were super carefully wrapped up for us in a branded doggy bag complete with utensils and napkins. I really appreciated the thought and consideration! While a bit pricey, it's a good time at the Mark!

    I was happy to start the day with the dishes here. I was a bit surprised to see that components of the Eggs Benedict were served in separate dishes. I was also surprised at the price but it is understandable considering the number of people serving, the beautiful interior, the flowers, and the location.

    Whole Roasted Cauliflower and Mozzarella, Tomato, Basil Pizza
    jackie w.

    This is def a place where you come for the fame, ambience, not the food. I mean the food is fab, but it is also very very overpriced. My gf and I shared a pizza and a whole roasted head of cauliflower. Pizza was super standard Neapolitan style and the cauliflower was good, but not worth $50!! It's fun to come here to dress up and spend a little. My gf said "I would be very impressed with a man if he took you on a date here." So there you have it dudes, this the perfect place if you want to impress your date!

    Grilled Black Sea Bass
    Sammi K.

    I have been to a number of Jean George's restaurants in New York and other cites / countries. I'd say the menu of the Mark is not as impressive as others, probably because it is an on-property dining option. I came here with my friend for a catch-up dinner. We were seated at the exit door to the backyard (yes, there were a number of tables there and a few guests were dining there). Whenever there were people coming and going or waiters trying to serve the food for guests sitting outside, they had to squeeze in behind my back, opened the door and sometimes forgot to close it properly, which was why I could feel the cold air from time to time. As you can imagine, it was pretty disruptive in terms of the whole dining experience. The waiters apologized a few times, but I thought the restaurant could have adjusted the seating arrangement to avoid this in the future. We ordered the Grilled Black Sea Bass as entree and Honey Roasted Fig as dessert. The sea bass was very tender, I like the combination of fennel, carrots and olive, which added a bit acidity and subtle sweetness to make the sea bass more flavorful in a balanced way. The honey roasted fig itself is more on the sweet side, that is why you have to eat it with the cumin ice cream to balance the flavor. The price is definitely above average, but the quality of the food is decent. It is definitely not one of my recommended JG restaurants though.

    I think this is the Mark Cocktail (with Prosecco, lychee, raspberry) but I honestly can't remember. It was delicious, though.
    Celina C. N.

    Dined on a whim while visiting a friend on UES. Food and service were perfectly fine, as expected from a restaurant by a chef of Jean-Georges' stature. The menu was not extensive but had plenty of fine options. Meal presentation and menu options are artful. Also as would be expected for a restaurant of this sort, quite expensive. It was overall a fine dining experience. Would I go back? Sure. But with so many delicious options in NYC at greater value, it wouldn't necessarily be my first choice.

When it came out I saw it was with Flageolet bean Ragout which unfortunately I cannot eat, so I had to let Anna our server know. I was hoping she would keep the duck and just replace the side, but it looked like they made a completely new order, what service. My wife and son both ordered from RW menu and chose the boeuf bourgigninon which was so delicious, very tender beef and smooth mashed potatoes. We decided to also order escargot and French onion soup. Our service was just amazing from Anna our main server and the support servers who brought out our orders and to those who made sure our glasses were never empty. Of course the prefixe dessert was also delicious. Just super happy we learned that it was restaurant week and that we were able to experience it.

While the French Onion soup was still a stand-out dish, the painfully slow service detracted. There appeared to be a single waitress working. I didn't notice during my first visit if there were multiple servers, but the first time I did hear the waiter advise another table that the kitchen was behind and there would be a wait for food. (This didn't affect me since on my first visit I only ordered soup.) Same thing happened this time, and there was a significant delay between our soup/salad course and entrees. We were told the kitchen was backed up. this is apparently the norm. For appetizers, the French onion soup was a gold star dish. My friend had the goat cheese salad which she said was also very good. The Chicken Cordon Bleu was good, and a hard-to-find dish in NYC. While eating our entrees, the server never checked on how things were or if we needed anything. Once finished, we sat there for a long time waiting for our plates to be cleared, and finally had to "announce" that we were done and request our dessert (as we had ordered the prix fixe menu). For dessert we ordered the Dame Blanche and Profiteroles. I would recommend neither. The ice cream (in both) was poor quality, crystallized and not creamy. A real shame. In all, the meal too 2.5 hours due to the slow service. The soup remains fantastic. I'm downgrading my review to recommend this spot only for soup and salad and not a full, hours-long meal. For that, it's 5 stars, for a full meal a middling 3.
