Summer rolls were fresh and filling. We shared a shrimp pad thai and I think I ate 60% of it. The shrimp was perfectly cooked. For dessert I loved the coconut cake and ice cream. So good. I would love to go back and try more.

I've had too good to-go bags from this location before and it was always some kind of dish and rice…read morethat met the stated program value. When I arrived around 5:15pm on August 1, the employee at the counter first told me they have no too good to go bags after having me swipe, then questioned if I was in the right location despite seeing the 8th Ave store on my screen, and then took a few minutes waffling trying to figure out what to do. He then went to the kitchen and another guy told me they would make me a new bag. Low and behold what I got was a container of plain fried rice and a diet Coke. Google is free and I lookd up the prices. it's gross that the guy at the counter thought that would substitute for the higher value meal I paid for. The staff's inability to properly manage their inventory should never be a customer's problem. The store was fully open and serving, so they easily could have given me something that meets promised value. To make matters worse, the rice was dry and flavorless. I would rate this 0 out of five if I could.

Food, drink, service and ambiance are all to perfection. The MaitreD-Patrina is very professional…read moreand attentive. We walked in without reservation but Patrina was able to accommodate us and personally escort us to the table to be sure we are seated comfortably. Our wait staff Miles was very friendly and kind, attention to details. We wanted to start of with some white wines but could not decide which one, he gave us some recommendation and introduced the wine sommelier- Joe who is very knowledgeable and professional. We really enjoyed the wines he recommended and it paired beautifully with the seafood we ordered. The oyster and uni cold starter was a wonderful kickoff, and they surprised us with a compliment starter which was really refreshing! It's thine sliced salmon sashimi dressed lightly with yuzu and sesame oil. It's delicious and it's free who doesn't like that! We had chicken wings as hot appetizers, it was done just right! The divers scallop was also super light and delicious but the sauce was on the heavy side. We finished with the black cod clay pot which was a great wrapped up. We were full and really had a great time enjoyed the food and wines at the 53-nyc. My friend's already asked me info about the restaurant and I highly recommend this place! Thank you Patrina, Miles and Joe!

Sometimes the best stops are the unplanned ones…read more After spending the afternoon at MoMA, my husband and I ducked into 53 to escape the heat and enjoy a cocktail before continuing our day. What started as a quick break turned into one of our favorite moments of the afternoon. We ended up chatting with the bartender for quite a while, swapping recommendations for speakeasies and cocktail bars around the city. It's always refreshing to meet someone who's genuinely passionate about their craft and happy to share local favorites. The cocktails were excellent, and the conversation made the experience even better. This wasn't actually our first visit--we celebrated my birthday here about three years ago, and I still remember how impressed we were with both the food and its presentation. It was nice to return and be reminded why we enjoyed it so much. We also learned that 53 has opened a speakeasy downstairs that's open on select weeknights and features live jazz. Needless to say, that's already on our list for our next trip to the city. Whether you're stopping in for a full dinner or just a well-made cocktail and a break from the Midtown bustle, 53 is well worth a visit.

We ordered family-style to share, starting with the cashew shrimp, spring rolls, and wontons, followed by the braised short rib lo mein, crab fried rice, chicken & broccoli, salt & pepper shrimp, and sea bass. Everything tasted decent, but nothing was particularly remarkable for the price point. Unfortunately, the service was lacking. I had to track down our server multiple times throughout the meal. An item was completely forgotten because order details weren't written down, and there was confusion when paying regarding an InKind / Broadway offer. Proper staff training would go a long way here-as it stands, the service level and pricing just don't align."

A bit too loud to talk to each other. There is plenty of seating in the waiting area and seating by the bar to order something while you wait. Décor was stylish. Service (5/5): Carolina was the sweetest server on a weeknight evening. She ran down the menu in a helpful way by telling by setting expectations for dish sizes. She checked in regularly. Food (4/5): The food was good, but nothing stood out, especially for the price point. Chicken wontons (3/5): Nothing to right home about Potstickers (3/5): Nothing to right home about Vegetable lo mein (3/5): Nothing to right home about, sweet/salty sauce Philly spring rolls (4/5): Better than the others because it had some more flavor and was pretty unique Steak chimichurri (3/5): Sauce was good but they cooked a medium steak that it was tough to chew Filet mignon and broccoli (5/5): Wow this was hands down the best dish of the night. The pieces of meat were generous and SO SO tender! The sauce was cooked into the pieces of broccoli Bok choi (5/5): A nice exterior crunch with a forward garlic oil taste Fried rice (3/5): Nothing to right home about

Had old tables and chairs but had good ratings according to Yelp. We ordered Seolleongtang which is a bone soup with tender meat. Good for a cold rainy day. Also, ordered Kalbi and soy garlic wings and rice. Didn't get to order a lot. I forgot to take a picture of the wings as we were hungry. lol Food was mediocre. The soy garlic wings was crispy but not much sauce. The Kalbi was more like a stir fry. Seollangtang broth was ok but you really need to add flavor to the soup. Probably good only when you're sick since you can't taste anything. LOL Service was good. Prices are ok. Everything is just ok. [38R,2026]

The oxtail spring rolls, rock shrimp tempura, and crab croquettes, however, were all delicious! For my entrée, I had the Beijing chicken, which was absolutely delicious. My friends enjoyed their meals as well, including the lo mein, fried rice, lamb chops, filet mignon beef and broccoli. The drinks were great, but the ambience really made the night. The space has an old-school speakeasy feel, with a very dark and mysterious entrance and an intimate, moody vibe. Great food, great drinks, and a really fun atmosphere. Definitely a memorable dining experience!

We were seated near the bar with a perfect view of the beautiful "Sei Less" wall art. Our waiter came over right away, took our drink order, and recommended some of their most popular appetizers. We ordered the sashimi, lobster spoons, and steamed chicken and vegetable dumplings. Everything was delicious, although we both thought the vegetable dumplings might be even better fried rather than steamed. For our entrée, we shared the chicken and vegetable lo mein, which was also a hit, and the edamame was so flavorful! We finished with the vanilla crème brûlée, and it was absolutely phenomenal--I'm honestly craving it again right now! Between the warm welcome, attentive service, gorgeous atmosphere, and delicious food, we had such a great experience at Sei Less and would definitely return!
