    WOW THIS MEAL WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. Me and my friends ordered virtually the whole menu for food, and I got a matcha IPA. The servers were good vibes and I loved the cozy ambiance of the place. All of the food was fantastic. So flavorful and perfect. My favorite bites were the potatoes, the noodles, and the steak courses. I will undoubtedly be back here to indulge myself in this greatness once again VERY soon. You must come here, and if you won't, I'll be very mad at you for being so foolish.

    Excellent and friendly service. Cute ambiance and concept. This is the perfect date spot, the quality for the price is fair in my opinion. The flavors and execution of the food is impeccable. The asparagus is so delicious, I could drink the sauce it's served with. The steak was perfectly cooked and again the sauce was finger licking good. I will definitely back, this is now my favorite spot on the LES and I'm very curious about the dessert menu.

    Delicious food - edamame dumplings are my favorite !!! The steak is delicious as well. Drinks are always tasty and fun. Highly recommend !

    Kimchi Paella

    Wow--I cannot wait to come back. The staff were so incredible and friendly! The drinks we ordered were obviously very aesthetic, but were even more delicious. Every plate that came was more delicious than the last. It is very cozy so I'd recommend for dates or small groups! It seemed like it would be difficult to have a large group there. Cannot recommend enough!

    Came here on a Thursday night with no reservation around 8:30pm. There was a small gathering of people waiting outside but overall, we waited less than 20 minutes. For 2 people, we shared - Tuna tartare tacos. Small but mighty. Good flavor and fish. - Soft Shell Crab Katsu. Crispy. Not too much batter in the batter-to-crab ratio. - Steak. Very very good and flavorful. That side salad/lettuce was delicious as well. - Truffle Mac & Cheese. OF course, very very very good and creamy. Good drinks (the light inside is so cool!) in a style my partner called "adult capri suns." I didn't know what to order but I asked for what the women at the table next to us had. Lots of fruit flavors. Dark, moody, romantic lighting. Lots of college students--clientele seemed to skew younger. Good service. Dishes came out one at a time.

    Gnocchi

    Had a good experience at Thursday Kitchen recently! They have a modestly sized menu and encourage family-style sharing plates. The food was quite unique with solid flavors. We tried the edamame dumpling, kimchi paella, gnocchi, and steak (which was plenty for 2 people). My favorite was the paella. I found the gnocchi a little watery but the flavors were great. The spot is walk-in only, with a cool speakeasy-esque vibe. While we didn't partake, the Capri Sun cocktail spoof was an innovative, insta-worthy menu feature. This is a great option for a casual dinner when you don't have a reservation!

    Group of 6 dined in. Service was great. We ordered one of everything to share (two of a couple of the smaller dishes). Standout dishes: the steak, lucky noodle, edamame dumpling, plantain and popcorn chicken. Cozy and intimate space but try to get a table away from the door as it got a bit chilly.

    Kimchi paella

    I think the vibe is nice it's not super noisy so we can chat and still hear each other. Staff were very friendly. They don't seat you until the whole party is there which is fine. They have a small menu so options are limited. We ordered the strawberry drink, truffle Mac and cheese, kimchi paella, and Korean fried chicken. Out of everything I really enjoyed the Mac and cheese it was sooooo creamy and sooooo cheesey. I can eat that every day. But that was it. I thought the strawberry drink was too sweet. Paella is lacking in flavor and the chicken was too dry and hard, unfortunately. But if you go 100000% get the Mac and cheese

    Kimchi Paella
    Lilian H.

    The ambiance was pretty much a Korean pub, selling anju (small eats) and drinks. The inside is pretty dark and cramped but it was very lively. The plates came out pretty small but my group and I had an ok time. Truffle Mac and cheese: 6/10 it was slightly more watery than other Mac n cheeses I've had but the truffle flavor was strong Kimchi paella: 4/10 not too flavorful, so we used it as filler food Steak: 9/10 probably the greatest thing we had this whole meal. It was slightly sweet and the mash potatoes paired well with it. Ordered another two servings since it was pretty small though, one person could finish two of these

    Edamame Dumpling
    Forest C.

    This place for me is hard to rate. I like the food yet it does not really make me feel like I should recommend this place to my close friends. The kimchi paella was too wet, and the umami flavor is lacking. However the shrimp was cooked very well and seasoned really well. Kimchi has a lot of water and I think they didn't recognize the water of the kimchi so the seasoning was diluted and it couldn't get a good char like normally paellas do. The edamame dumplings were surprising better than I thought but the use of truffle oil, Parmesan and lemon together kinda brought the pungentness too much. The truffle Mac was really good, I really like the char it gave it more flavor. It was also too soupy tho. I wish it was just a bit less soupy. My favorite was the steak tho. The flavor on the steak was insane. The kayle was really good but just a tad bit salty for me. The grits though was probably the best grits I've ever had. Even if it's not authentic for some people but I really liked it, the cheese was the right amount to give the umami instead of pungentness. I just really wish the steak could get a better sear and it will literally be some of the best steak I have. Overall the vibe of the place was really nice but the music is just a little bit too loud. I was constantly shouting like I was in a club or a rave, which if that's the vibe you like then go for it. Overall decent and if you wanna try something new in the area, it is definitely not bad.

    Ugly potato
    Ashley M.

    Didn't take enough pictures here because we were too busy enjoying the food! Our group of 8 ordered 10 of the small dishes which ended up being a good mix for us. We loved trying all the fun combinations - the truffle mac n cheese (very strong truffle!) and soft shell crab were highlights for us!

    Kimchi Paella
    Emily W.

    No wait for 2 on a Tuesday around 8:30pm. Dimly lit ambiance, loved the vibes. We shared the edamame dumplings, asparagus, kimchi paella, truffle mac & cheese, and the ugly potato. My favorite was the edamame dumplings for sure! They were so creamy and flavorful and each bite was full of the delicious filling. Asparagus was my next favorite - full of flavor and loved the bread crumbs (?) on top which added texture. Kimchi paella and truffle mac & cheese were tied for me. Both were pretty good but not particularly mindblowing. Ugly potato was probably my least favorite, they were pretty soggy and didn't go that well with the feta cheese in my opinion. Needed more of a balanced flavor overall. Drinks were pretty good and came in a light-up bag.

    Tana Tartar Tacos
    Christian A.

    We couldn't get in the first time we went, but glad we went back a few weeks later. The vibe inside is super casual but the lighting a décor elevates it dramatically. You definitely need to order a few dishes so bring friends, but there are plenty of options for vegetarians (try the truffle mac and the edamame dumplings--you're welcome). The ugly potatoes were just fine but that's more of a testament to the other dishes being so good. Overall it didn't take long to get our orders, my only watch out is that there aren't any cocktail options. There's an adult juice pouch situation, but I passed on it--I have an aversion to glow cubes.

The front part where you first walk in is the bar area with some tables. This restaurant is on the darker side and brings you back in time. Once you walk in further that is where the main dinning room is. This is also on the darker side as you can maybe tell by my photos. The wall paper and art around the restaurant is cool and there are some monkey statues around the restaurant. I was seated in a corner table in a booth area that seemed to be for at least 2-3 people. I thought for sure they would seat me at the bar area. I had a wonderful waitress whose name I think was Taylor but I could be wrong. I ordered the Monkey bread to start off with. It's a very buttery bread with truffle and parm cheese on top. I have alot of allergies and I was searching online if I could even have truffles as I have a nut allergy. So, I asked the waitress and she said she had never heard this. But, she came back to me and told me that White truffle grows near or like over where Almonds grow from but that, they don't use white truffle so I was all good. Well, this was super nice of her to check for me. I had no idea she was going to do this. She said the restaurant has strict protocols when it comes to food allergies. I then got for my main dish the double cheese burger with onions and pickles. To drink I had the cucumber martini. WOW everything was pretty darn good!! I passed on dessert. If you get a chance or a reservation pops up in your resy to go, even if it is for lunch..I highly say go for it.

    From the moment we sat down, the service set the tone for the entire experience. Our server was…read moreincredibly warm, upbeat, and full of energy--one of those people who genuinely elevates a meal. I only wish I could remember her name because she deserves the recognition. We started with drinks, and mine ended up being a surprise standout. I ordered the coconut margarita, slightly hesitant since I'm not usually a margarita fan--but it completely won me over. It struck a perfect balance and leaned just enough into the coconut to make it feel unique without being overpowering. My sister-in-law, who's pregnant, had a non-alcoholic Ritual margarita and loved it, noting how convincingly it mimicked the real thing. Since we were sharing, we got to try a good mix of the menu. The monkey bread came first--definitely a splurge at $34, but it's one of those fun, indulgent starters that's worth ordering at least once. While I wouldn't call it the best bread I've ever had, I also wouldn't change anything about it. The crab rangoon was another highlight. Having it made with real crab made a noticeable difference, and the dipping sauces complemented it really well. It felt like a more elevated take on something familiar. For mains, the French dip was a hit. The meat was incredibly tender, the bread had that ideal crusty exterior, and the au jus was packed with flavor--I was very glad I ordered extra. It pulled the whole dish together. We also tried the smoked whitefish Caesar, which was the only dish that didn't quite land for me. It was a well-made, fresh salad, but the smoked fish flavor was a bit overpowering and took over the balance of the dish. Even though we were too full for dessert, the restaurant surprised us with a scoop of strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce to celebrate my sister-in-law's babymoon. It ended up being one of the most memorable bites of the meal--we're still talking about how good that ice cream was. We arrived right at 11:45, and by the time we left, the place was absolutely buzzing. It's clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. Between the lively atmosphere, strong service, and well-executed food, I'd highly recommend making a reservation if you can.

The pinwheel shape of the lasagna gives each bite that satisfying crispy edge. The fresh chrysanthemum leaves are topped with a mountain of parm, and the bright dressing just ties the whole dish together. The buffalo milk caramelle is a playful and memorable dish. Each candy-shaped pasta is coated with a sweet brown butter sauce and candied kumquats. I watched several videos on YouTube of their kitchen operations, and it is so impressive how they create each unique pattern on the pasta by hand. They were unfortunately sold out of the lobster by 7 pm, so we didn't get to try it. I would recommend booking an earlier dinner time to ensure that you get to order it if the lobster is a must. Other dishes were still phenomenal, including the Japanese sweet potatoes and the steak al limone, cooked to a perfect medium rare. Their take on a tiramisu was a delightful end to our meal. It had just the right amount of sweetness, and the crunchy wafer layers added a nice crispy texture. Reservations definitely require some planning since they open up seven days in advance. My husband and I set an alarm to log onto OpenTable. As soon as the clock struck 9 am EST, we clicked the slot we wanted. If you're quick, your slot will be held for about 10 minutes on OpenTable while you complete booking. When we refreshed the page, the reservations were gone within a matter of seconds/minutes. I think they do accept walk-ins, but expect to line up early or wait quite a while. The restaurant space is warmly lit by candlelight at dinner, creating an intimate, cozy ambiance. Perfect for a date night or a special occasion. Service was stellar. As an avid cookbook collector, I was excited that I could purchase their cookbook, signed by chef Angie and chef Scott, at the restaurant. Best souvenir on this trip! I am excited to try recreating their recipes at home. I will definitely make it a priority to return to Don Angie and to check out their sister restaurant, San Sabino, the next time we are in Manhattan.

Then the music changed, and the band that went on after was just NOT a vibe - what we had hoped would be a cute, cuddle in a little booth, get some music, good food, turned into a "are we done, lets hurry and go drink at the hotel bar" experience! Sad because I wanted to love this place, and maybe another booth where my ass wasnt on my neighbors chair, and the music was a different band might change this whole experience!

    Her Name Is Han ended up being one of those unexpectedly great meals. We walked in with little to…read moreno expectations and left completely satisfied. We were initially worried about the wait, but the turnaround was surprisingly quick. We ordered the galbi, seafood pancake, and a stew, and were honestly caught off guard by how large the portions were. Everything was packed with flavor. The pancake had a great crisp, the stew was hearty and comforting, and the galbi was rich and well-prepared. It is one of those meals we still think about months later. I would highly recommend it.

    It was a fine experience, nothing extraordinary. Maybe the expectation was a tad on the high side…read morewith all the fantastical reviews online and the alluring pictures on social media. Naturally, one had to go to taste what it was all about. Surprisingly packed on a random Monday, and we were glad we made a reservation. Odd setup in the front caused some confusion since there wasn't a host at the door and we wandered to the back before an employee told us someone will seat us eventually but had to go backwards to the entrance. With uncertainty, my friend got the spicy pork and I ordered the machete for lunch. I enjoyed the fried cod and chicken appetizers more. My friend was sad she didn't get the bibimbap instead. When asked what her thoughts are midway through the meal, she responded, "It isn't bad, but it isn't great." I understood her completely. One last thing, the ice cream dessert needs an upgrade with the presentation. When the plate was presented to us, I couldn't help myself and chuckled. I asked my buddy if she too thought that the dried strawberries looked like cat food. She laughed, knowing exactly what I meant. By golly, it's like eating kibble! They can consider slicing the strawberries into slivers, at least it'll be far more pleasing to the eyes!
