This was the closest dining establishment that served alcohol by our gate, so we stopped by. It is pretty small and cramped, but we managed to find two seats along the window facing the planes. It was hard to fit in the area as people tend to put bags on seats, etc. Plus the walkway to the kitchen is right there so you feel like you are in the way. Food wise, I liked my salad. Could have done without the chips as I really just wanted greens, veggies, and protein. For $26, it was obviously on the smaller side, but hey, it's an airport resto. My drink was all right. Kinda weak in the liquor and spice department, but fine for sipping. My friend seemed to enjoy his food and cocktail. I wish there were more options in this area of the airport. But this will do if I want a drink. REVIEW #4023

We were greeted maybe 8-10 minutes later by our server after having placed our order. She dropped off our drinks and was pleasant. The food was good. My BF had the Bistro Burger with Fries, $23 and enjoyed it. I had the Hot Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich with House Made Chips, $19. My sandwich was tasty, I really liked the hot honey. The restaurant is decorated nicely with lots of windows facing the tarmac. It had a more upscale vibe than most of the places at the airport. Operations seemed to run smoothly and although busy, we didn't feel rushed while dining.

This lounge is infamous for its wait time, but once you get in, it's great!…read moreThis was my second visit- apparently they get busy in the evening as many international flights depart around that time. Today I checked in with a host, got on the waitlist and waited about 45 minutes before getting in. The centurion lounge next door also posted a sign saying it was at capacity and there was an online waitlist. What I don't like about this lounge is I cannot pick a seat. They just escort you and let you know what it's available for you. As other reviews say, I wondered why so many available seats there when a lot of people are waiting outside? It may be the service capacity related, rather than space capacity? The food is consistently good here. The buffet is sufficient but the made to order menu seemed really good too.

The waitlist process is still long and annoying (wild that the average wait seems to be 45 minutes) but my partner and I managed to get in eventually. We felt rushed, but I guess I need to get here MUCH earlier and account for that in my arrival to the airport. We ordered some quick food from the menu while enjoying a few cocktails. The food we tried - both the burger and whatever was available in the far area of the lounge - was okay. The cocktails were stellar. So pretty! Definitely the best part of the experience, especially since we were able to sit at the bar. I would still try to get into any Chase Sapphire Lounge to make use of my credit card but just be aware of the contrasting reviews and experiences!

The hostess greeted me warmly and allowed me to browse the menu at my leisure without feeling rushed. The seating was spacious, and the self-serve bar area offered plenty of room. The decor and vibe evoked an early 60s charm, though the playlist featuring early 2000s hits was a quirky mismatch, yet, honestly, it grew on me and seemed to add a lively edge to the meal. The menu was straightforward, offering a tempting selection of chicken sandwiches and biscuit dishes. After some thought, I settled on the chicken ranch, it was ready in less than five minutes! The "Porch Sipper" drink was delightful; I ended up ordering a second, as its flavors transported me to open Kentucky fields, sitting on a wraparound porch on a warm summer day, savoring the music and gazing at the blue summer sky. The experience was truly immersive. And I must say, the staff radiated positive energy, they seemed genuinely happy to be there, which makes a difference when dealing with thousands of travelers daily. Jacob's Pickles is definitely a must-visit spot when passing through JFK Terminal 5.

The fried pickles were so doughy that you could barely see a pickle, the waffle fries were undercooked, and the pickle slaw looked like you could've gotten it at Stop and Shop deli counter and added pickle chips. It was also drenched in so much mayonnaise that I couldn't eat it. Get yourself a turkey and cheese sandwich from the grab and go and be thankful that you did.

Quick service, good food and about average prices for airport food and drinks…read more The NY Sports Grill is tucked away in Terminal 5 and looks pretty standard from a quick passerby perspective. You can scout out a quick seat at the bar or have the hostess seat you at the table. Either way, they operate on a scan-to-order system. (I mention this specifically after watching a woman rudely berate the restaurant servers for "terrible service" after which they patiently explained the situation to her. I also watched an older man get super frustrated later on for similar reasons. These servers are really taking a lot of flack for this order entry system. Do better and have some patience, folks!) Back to the restaurant experience itself, I ordered the goat cheese and candied walnut salad with chicken, and my husband ordered the Reuben with fries. Both were very good, particularly for airport food, where my expectations are low. Service on our order was very quick, and we appreciated that the app will let you track your order status. Neat feature that helps temper expectations! There is a large variety of beer on tap, along with other mixed drinks and options available. The app is easy to use, so ordering more from your seat is a breeze. Not a bad stop for a little airport restaurant!

A wonderful lounge experience that I would highly recommend! Free access for primary Capital One Venture X cardholders.

I've been to a good amount of airport lounges across the world, most of which leave a lot to be…read moredesired. Overcrowded, weak offerings, not to mention sometimes you can't even get in, no less get a seat. I recently gave up the credit card that allowed for "free" Admiral's Club membership, those these seem to be the most ubiquitous. I have Priority Pass and barely use it, especially if I'm with my husband because it costs too much IMO for a companion pass (love how they keep whittling away those perks). But on a recent visit to terminal 4 prior to a transatlantic flight, I knew I needed to see if I could at least get a snack and some water, so when I saw the Capital One Lounge, I went for it. I was greeted by the nicest lady who patiently walked me through entry, even though I stupidly left my boarding pass and credit cards about a half a mile away at my gate with my husband. You don't need Priority Pass to enter, just a Capital One card, I believe any tier. Guests can get a pass at 50 dollars, I believe. I guess it's worth it if your guest drinks a lot and has no dietary restrictions. I was pretty impressed with the amount of seating, work stations and tables and easily found a seat. While the cold bar only had one plant based option (thank you for clearly marking dietary restrictions), the menu that you order from had zero. I had the quickest, tiniest snack (I think it was couscous?) and filled my water bottle and went on my way. The bathrooms are private, clean and there's also showers available. Overall a much more positive experience than a lot of lounges (if I can even get in-- Priority Pass is really not good and I'll be moving to a lower tier Capital One card when it comes time to renew).

Hostess offered us a seat near the windows, which was kind. Positive: Food was great! We loved everything we ate. Started with the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice (3 in an order). It came to the table hot and fresh. PLEASE squeeze the lime on there if you order this, it takes it over the edge. We then split the Caesar salad with chicken ($10 surcharge for chicken), and it was fantastic. We also split the burger, and while it came out more well done than median rare it was delicious. Did not care for the ranch at all. Only reason this is 4 stars is because it seemed they were down cooks in the kitchen; the food took 45 minutes to get there. We sat down around 7:50 PM, ordered our starter immediately, and it did not come until 8:33 PM. Our kind server did bring us a complimentary bread basket which saved us. They were also out of two of the wines requested. All restaurants have off days, so we would return again next time we stay at the hotel. Food was great, and service was kind.

It was convenient where you can order online with the QR code, but I realized that you get your food quicker if you order directly with the waitress (not super busy when I was there).

Overall, fine to consume but will not recommend. On the plus side, the waitress was really nice.
