Had dinner here with my boyfriend to celebrate his birthday. We got the chef's tasting and loved every single item that came out. Highlights for me were definitely the scallops, duck, and tuna tartare. The ambiance is very cozy with an open kitchen and cute backyard. The staff were attentive and even brought the dessert out with a candle for us! read more

Wow where do I begin! I closed on my first condo today and my parents asked me where do I want to go to celebrate? I said well I really want to try Traif. My mother goes Traif on shabbos? I hope this place is good! For all of you who do not know Traif means non kosher in Yiddish. We booked a table in the garden which is their true outdoor dining and sat next to a grape vine which was cool. The outside dining was peaceful and nice. They also had a covered patio option as well as inside. They have a strict 2 hour maximum seating here just an fyi! Now for the food we wanted to try so many different things and this is a tapas place so we started off with the cab blend a glass each which was ok. First dish to come out was the octopus with artichokes. The octopus itself was buttery, tender and cooked perfectly. I wasn't the biggest fan of the texture on the artichoke but still a solid dish. 2nd dish of the night was the tuna poke on a Japanese eggplant. This right here was amazing! That eggplant alone was super flavorful and perfectly crispy. Adding that fresh tuna poke lightened up the dish and gave it some freshness. I really enjoyed this no wonder it is one of their top selling dishes, totally a must FYI! 3rd dish of the night was the restaurants other best seller the ribs with strawberry, mint and jalapeño. Now let me tell you, I normally never eat ribs and wow this was amazing! I was savoring every morsel of food. The sauce, the pairing and the cook on the meat were all perfect. This is an organic in your mouth you won't regret trying! Another must try! 4th dish of 5be night was the lamb pasta. I thought it couldn't get any better and I was speechless after my first bite of this dish. This was so flavorful, masterfully executed and I can't say enough good things about it. Really this is another must try and another favorite of the night. 5th dish out was the scallops and risotto. These scallops were divine. Cooked absolutely perfectly and ypu could even taste the scallops in the risotto! The risotto was super flavorful and everyone enjoyed this. Again a must try! 6th dish out was the shrimp with watermelon, mango and jalapeño. This was very tropical and flavorful. It was a great refreshing taste in your mouth with just the right amount of heat. I enjoyed this too. 7th dish of the night was the duck beast. I am not really a duck person so I didnt eat this one but both my parents liked it alot. 8th and final dish was the fish buns (sorry forgot to snap a pic of this). At this point we were pretty full and this dish was pretty decadent on fats. The bun was fried instead of steamed but it was delicious the fish was perfectly fried and topped with an amazing sauce which when perfect with the cabbage and mayo sauce perfect way to end the meal. I will be back for the chefs tasting menu next time and you should try this place too, not one to be missed! read more

WOW! For only $55, the tasting menu at Traif is one of the best that I have ever had. There were so many unique flavor combinations that really wowed me throughout the meal. The chefs were great about accommodating dietary restrictions. The meal was almost 3 hours long; I kept thinking each dish must be one of the last, but they just kept coming. Since eating here, I have told many of my friends just how great it was and recommended they come try it for themselves. read more

You really can't go wrong here - for $55/person you definitely get your money's worth. We got 9 entrees and 2 desserts. For chef's table to work, the whole table needs to participate. It's a shared concept so depending on your party, the shared plate will have enough for your party. The attached pictures are shared by two people. I highly recommend coming! Everything was delicious but I personally loved the tartare the best. I will definitely be back! read more

Stumbled upon this restaurant while we were in Williamsburg and it was definitely a great find!! They had a open kitchen so we chose to sit in the cute lit up string light patio area. We tried the tasting menu and some dishes were amazing 5/5 but some dishes lacked some creativity. Overall a great experience and amazing service. The server described every dish for us before serving it! Looks like small portions but definitely left super filling read more

Horrible service with rude manager. We had a 6pm reservation and due to unforeseen circumstances we were not going to be able to make our reservation and called the morning of to notify the restaurant. When trying to get in touch with the restaurant, we called over 5x times but no one picked up. They only pick up during service hours... We finally left a voicemail to inquire about cancelling..and asked for someone to call us back..and instead of anyone calling us, we received a charged for $150 cancellation fee on our credit card. I've lived in New York for over a decade and I have NEVER received such audacious service from a restaurant. To charge our credit card without confirmation or speaking with us, is outrageous. When we were finally able to get in touch with someone at the restaurant the person we spoke to was so rude and could not care less about charging us and said he would "do us a favor" by putting it on a gift card. I've frequented many restaurants in NYC and I have never encountered a restaurant that was so rude and unforgiving. They clearly don't care about customer service and bringing in new clientele. read more

I went here for my birthday dinner and I had very high hopes for this spot as I've heard good things and the menu looked amazing. My favorite dishes were the scallops and foie gras, but even that wasn't anything spectacular in taste. The ingredients were of great quality, but the flavors were not anything special. We did the pre-fix menu and for the price, there was certainly a lot of food. The service and ambiance was really nice. We sat outside on the patio and the server was very responsive and attentive. The lights and decor outside made it a perfect romantic dinner vibe read more

A phenomenal find in the city - run here before it gets too crowded! For $55 per person you get 10 courses of food - 8 savory and 2 sweet. The courses are the perfect size of enough so you get a taste but not too filling so you can enjoy the courses yet to come. We also did the $40 wine pairing which came with 5 half pours of wine to go with the different courses (but really they were more like 75% pours!). The menu changes everyday depending on what the chef is making and it seems like you really can't go wrong. read more

I was here twice, once with a group of four and once with one other. Both times we did the tasting menu. The portion sizes are rather large and the deal here is fantastic for all the food you get. List of example courses from my two meals (not including repeats:) Very good: Day Boat Scallops: English peas, mint, salsa verde risotto, lemon brown butter Honestly one of the best scallop dishes I have ever had. The risotto went perfectly with it. Spicy Bigeye Tuna Tartare: Tempura Japanese eggplant, kecip manis This is famous here for a good reason. Great mix of textures and flavors. I would recommend it but it's going to be part of the tasting menu unless you don't want it. Salt and Pepper Shrimp: Watermelon, pineapple, snow peas, sweet spicy vinaigrette Very unique and very tasty. I haven't really found any other shrimp dishes to be refreshing but this definitely falls under that category. Nice underlying spiciness. Garlic Butter Octopus: Braised artichokes, almond, piquillo pepper romesco Perfectly cooked octopus with a great sauce. Obviously inspired by Spain and there's nothing wrong with how this was prepared. Seared Duck Breast: Dukkah, caponata, chick peas Nicely spiced duck and tender. One of their more expensive dishes that is worth it Good: Red Endive Salad: Snap peas, pink muscat grapes, grapefruit, walnuts, cabra al vino, truffle vinaigrette This is one of the lighter dishes here and it was a nice mix of flavors. Nothing to complain about on a tasting menu but I wouldn't bother with it if you were to order a la carte. Seared Foie Gras: Prosciutto, sweet potato, sunny side up egg, maple syrup, hot sauce This was essentially their fun take on a breakfast item with the prosciutto having a bacon texture. Very rich and very tasty. Dreams of Shiso: Shiso bourbon, black sesame, ginger, and brown sugar. Humorously named cocktail made from While the shiso was light, the cocktail was well balanced and also good. Alright: Baby Back Ribs: Strawberry, cinnamon, mint, chilies I know this thing is famous but I found it a bit too sweet. Great meat but just alright. Parisenne Gnocchi: Mushrooms, asparagus, Asiago cheese, porcini mushroom sauce As I've heard from others, the pasta (or not pasta in this case) here are fine. I would save room for other dishes. Fried Japanese Snapper: Sichuan style salsa, red cabbage, kimchi, mantou This was probably the only unique dish that wasn't very good. Big portion of snapper with a light fry but even with the salsa, I found it to be a bit too bland with the mantou (unsure why it's listed as bao on the menu when it was the fried dough) not helping. BBQ Brisket Short Rib Sliders: Fries Nothing wrong with the tender brisket and the portion of fries but if I wanted generic Southern BBQ sauces, I would go to many other places. Still fine. Desserts: All fine Nutella Mousse: Red wine poached cherries, peanuts Probably my favorite of the desserts. Nice mix of sweetness and nuttiness Mom's Key Lime Pie: Graham Cracker Crust, Berries, mint A bit small but nice flavor. Good crust and not too sour. Bacon Ricotta Donuts: Dulce de leche, coffee cream Also tasty though the bacon flavor was a bit light. The cream went well with it. Overall this place was excellent with the weaker dishes only standing out because of how amazing some other ones were. Very nice service being accommodating both times. It's hard to say which place I liked more though I would say probably the "lows" here are worse than Xixa with the highs being slightly better but both are excellent and both are fantastic deals. You will get stuffed. 4.7. read more

Traif is so amazing that I came here twice in one week, something that I can't remember doing for any other restaurant. The ambience of the outdoor garden is amazing and albeit Traif is quite secluded, it is definitely worthy of a visit. I forgot who our server was both times (he has glasses and tattoos) but he is absolutely wonderful. Absolutely everything on the menu is truly fantastic but the item that stood out to me the most was the scallops risotto. I know it sounds exaggerated when I say that this dish is perfect, but trust me when i say that it truly is. I don't care if you don't like scallops or risotto, you have to get this!!! I know that I'll be visiting Traif again as I plan on trying everything on their menu. read more

Service, flavor, ingenuity, ambiance, decor- they pay attention to everything. We had the chefs tasting and the standouts were the tuna on eggplant chip, lettuce boats, and ribs. The others were also good just not as fabulous. But it's honestly the whole ensemble. You gotta experience this no-frills yet thrilling and unexpectedly understated powerhouse of a restaurant. Super cool and yummy. Definitely recommend to no end. The wine pairing was also interesting as the wine got heavier as the courses got more substantial. Note to self- eat the desserts immediately. read more

WOW!!! This place is incredible. We did their tasting menu and every single thing that came out was amazing. I'm still dreaming about their duck breast!!! We were seated in the middle patio and it wasn't the cleanest, but the food 100% made up for it. Service was good and I'd definitely go for a celebration. They also had seating by the kitchen and I think that would be a fun option when dining with a party of 2. read more

Traif is a Yiddish word that means "unkosher". That's our server told us. We decided to go with the chef's selection since it was our first time here and the menu looked overwhelmingly delicious and we couldn't decide what to order. We were seated in the back garden area and the ambience reminded us of Paris. The chef's selection consists of 8-9 dishes per person that could be found on the original menu but served and curated by the chef. The menu changes based on seasonal ingredients and each dish we had was phenomenal. read more

Went to Traif for a friends bday, not knowing what to expect. We opted for the Chef's choice pre fix. Everything we had was delicious , I can't even pick a favorite, it might be the strawberry-cinnamon glazed short ribs, or the scallops w/braised leek risotto with lemon-pistachio brown butter. I love a surprise so the Chef's choice was perfect. It's a very cute place and the staff was lovely . I can't wait to return very soon! read more

Traif - Cocktails - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is a wonderful option with a great outdoor dining space, but it was all taken when we called to make a reservation for three. We opted to do indoor dining. It was my first time doing indoor dining. The tables seemed spaced out, but still full. In other words, they seemed to be appropriately spaced out to give each party a sense of privacy whereas pre-COVID era, tables could be just inches apart. Not that we were worried about privacy because the music was so awfully loud that we could barely hear each other. So if you decide to indoor dine here, don't come here if you want to catch up with friends. The outdoor space seemed much quieter. The drinks were 14 dollars and masterfully crafted! Everything' here also felt bigger like the cocktails came in bigger glasses, the tapas weren't really tapa sized. The food was all very delicious! I appreciated the generous portion. My favorites were the steak and the rigatoni pasta with pistachio cream! My friends really liked the gnocchi and the endives! I can see myself coming back as the menu seems like it changes (maybe seasonally?). But next time, hopefully we can snag a quieter spot outside. read more

This place feels like such a hidden gem. I had never heard of Traif until I saw someone post about the chef's tasting menu on TikTok. 10 courses for $56 at a restaurant of this caliber felt too good to be true, so of course I had to make a reservation immediately. Let me tell you--it really is that good! I sat at the bar since I was dining solo, and before I knew it, plate after plate began arriving at my table. Collectively, it was one of the best meals I've had in NYC, and I still find myself thinking about some of the dishes months later. The dishes that stood out to me were the red endive (perfectly balanced by savory and sweet with beautiful textures), the salmon crudo (melt-in-your-mouth tender and bright), the spicy tuna tartare over tempura eggplant (so unique and interesting in the contrast between hot and cold), and the toasted parisenne gnocchi with butternut squash (outrageously rich and flavorful). The only dishes I didn't really care for were the salt and pepper shrimp, which was too sweet, and the pork "steak frites", which had unevenly cooked pork and too much of it. Both of the desserts, which were bacon ricotta donuts and key lime pie, were absolutely stellar. As a girl with a sweet tooth, I was honestly thrilled to see two desserts, and two well-executed ones at that. If you're worried about leaving hungry, don't hesitate to order the tasting menu. The portions were honestly much bigger than I thought they'd be. I couldn't finish all the food, and I walked out absolutely stuffed. I also wished the food came out a little slower, since I barely had time to finish the last dish before the next course was showing up. For the price, it's honestly a fantastic value, and I will absolutely be coming back every season to see the changes in their menu. I also want to shout-out the service, which was just fabulous. The bartender was such a friendly, chill dude and kept me company all night (while obviously doing his job). He really made the experience top-notch. But really, every single person from the hostess to the people delivering my food to the bar, were so nice and just seemed happy to be there. Easily the best service I've had in NYC. Run, don't walk to to this restaurant! read more

One of the top 5 BEST meals of my life! Came here with my wife for our anniversary. The manager came over to us and sat us at a great intimate table set for us. The food was incredible. If you come here and don't get the ribs: you're wrong. Top notch everything. We will be back! read more

After hearing about the 10-course tasting menu priced at $56 per person, we HAD to try it out! After tax and tip it comes out to $72, but I still think it was a pretty good experience for the price. The tasting menu apparently changes every day and is a selection of what the chef wants you to try from their tapas menu. We got 8 tapas and 2 desserts. I don't remember everything we got so I'll just describe the dishes that I remember: - Beet salad: very refreshing, tart, and had a good texture from the other vegetables. It was also topped with cheese. Hard to go wrong there. - Scallops with risotto: you could taste the brown butter that it came with. Pretty good. Even though you only get 1 scallop per person, the scallop itself is a decent size. - Foie gras with egg and prosciutto: it only came with 1 piece of foie gras for us to share between the 2 of us... I wonder if they would've given me the same amount if I had gone there myself. Nevertheless, it was pretty good and tasted as expected. - Strawberry-cinnamon ribs: I prefer boring normal ribs to this, but if you're a fan of unique spices and flavoring on your meat you will like this. - Oversized rigatoni: big pasta with pesto and fresh cheese. Al dente and flavorful. - Pork steak frites: the pork was somewhat dry. I think a beef steak would've been better. - Pineapple ginger key lime pie: I'm not a fan of ginger, but this grew on me the more I ate it. Would order again. - Bacon doughnuts: I didn't taste the bacon, but there was good flavor from the accompanying dulce de leche and coffee cream. read more

Like a long lost lover you can never forget. You keep mulling over those fond memories that have since been misremembered; I'm back trying to re-kindle that old flame. Loved:foire grass and tartar, lettuce wrap was yummy but the lettuce pieces were t well chosen and made the dish more of a sloppy joe. Disliked:corn pasta (far too overpowering corn flavor-they used too sweet of a corn that stole the show-as my girl said "that's that Monsanto corn") Mushroom (soup was flavorless but the bread was yummy and had a great salty char) the egg helped a great deal. Rude little pig is still very tasty just a bit too salty this time around. read more

Went there for their tasting menu. We added an additional pasta dish because we were still kinda hungry. Don't get me wrong it's enough food. We just like to be well feed! Everything was good but was there something I had to ordered again for a larger portion, no. But overall food was good! Service was great. We sat in the green house area with a fan but it was just fine. Not too hot. We went kind of early so it wasn't packed. But when we were leaving it was starting to fill up. The garden area is cute but I rather be in the green house away from the bugs. read more

We really enjoyed dinner at Traif. We were in Brooklyn for the night, staying at the Moxy, and wanted to find a place nearby for a fun dinner. I gave Traif a try even though we're not their target demographic. As in many other reviews, we did the Chef Tasting menu. To clear some confusion I saw from a few reviews about how many courses to expect. Some said 8, and some said 10. There are 8 food courses and 2 dessert courses. Ours included the Endive, Scallops/risotto, and Tuna Tartar among those we really enjoyed. The Prawns & Duck were the least favorite of what we had. We saw the short ribs and those looked great, but were not something we had. We sat at the bar which was fun as we could watch all the action as the chefs were cooking in full view. I think it would be hard for a party of more than 2 to sit at the bar because it's a pretty loud place. Our waiter was good and attentive, although, with the type of restaurant, they are really just food runners. Side note - at least the night we were there - even for a party of 2 they automatically included a 20% tip which was fine - but unexpected. I would have given 5 stars - but the wine list was really poor. The waiter told us how much pride the owner took in selecting niche wines that were pretty high priced for what they were. We tried a bottle of the Cab Franc, of course, the waiter said it was the owner's favorite, but definitely was not our favorite. The tasting was 56/pp which seemed reasonable. The wine was 58, and with tax and automatic tip - it came out to over $250 which felt less reasonable. read more

Tried the chefs menu, and Omg! The chef was so thoughtful about how all the ingredients and textures went together. I wish we had something like this in LA, especially for the price. We were amazed at the quality and was very filling. We were surprised how much food was in the chefs menu and how delicious everything was and can't wait to come back for another chefs menu next time we're in NY. read more

Ever wondered how disappointment would taste like? Come by here and you'll know exactly what disappointments tastes like upon your first bite. After reading all the raving reviews and what not, I decided to come here after nabbing a reservation for Valentine's Day. They had a prefix menu for the occasion, which contains 11 dishes including dessert. After reading through the menu, everything sounded amazing. You have the option of going for the regular tasting menu for $75 or the baller, which is $100 and certain dishes you get all the add on that's available for a few dishes. We opted for the baller. First dish was a Moroccan curry and chick pea soup. This came in a shot glass. It was essentially gritty curry soup. The soup was average, nothing amazing and we were hoping things can only go up from here right? Not so right. Next 2 dishes was also a letdown. The winter carpese was bland and the scallops were dry. The tuna tartar was when things started looking up. The tuna tartar was pretty good. A little spicy but just the right amount of kick needed to know it has flavor. I was thinking maybe the first 2 is to lure you in with low expectations than they crush it with the rest?! The duck confit was also good. Crispy and tender at the same time, this paired really well with the Japanese yam sauce and I thoroughly enjoyed this dish. With the way things were going, I thought the meal was saved. Next was the pork belly bao but ours was upgraded to have foie gras instead. This bao was incredibly average and underwhelming. You don't really taste the foie fras at all, making me question at this point if the upgrade was worth it. Next up was the steak frites upgraded with mishima wagyu filet mignon. I was really looking forward to this one so couldn't contain my excitement when it came...only to be let down. This was a $30 upgrade if you didn't get the baller option. Essentially seems like regular filet, and only 6 pieces. Definitely not worth it as the meat wasn't even tasteful. I guess that's what all the sauce was for. The lamb osso bucco was splendid. It was a good portion size, tender meat and great taste. This kind of at least sated my appetite and didn't have me leaving hungry. I think if you go somewhere and it charges you $100/person, it should either be delicious or enough food to keep you full. This place sadly did not fulfill either and I left extremely disappointed. I've wasted money before, but this one actually hurts. read more

I've had Traif bookmarked for a while now, and have read nothing but good things about them. In an attempt to avoid a crowded restaurant due to our concerns over the omicron variant, we opted for an early 5:30pm dinner reservation on a Saturday. The first patrons to arrive, we were seated in the back room where it was a bit chilly. The server reassured us that once the kitchen got going, the temperature would become more comfortable. We decided on the chef's tasting menu for 3 reasons: (1) $55/person is quite a steal for a multi-course meal; (2) we are always down for tapas; and (3) we wanted to experience a broad range of what they had to offer. DRINKS - Creative and delicious cocktails, I especially enjoyed the one with plum whiskey and ginger beer. We also ordered a bottle of orange wine, as we don't often see them offered on menus. FOOD - The most memorable dishes from the night included the most perfectly cooked scallops I've ever had (I was still thinking about them 2 days later), tuna tartare served on delicately fried Japanese eggplant (the freshness paired excellently with the texture), strawberry glazed pork ribs (reminded me very much of traditional Filipino lechon with mang tomas sauce), and their fluffy yet rich bacon doughnuts. The flavors were bold and the contrast between dishes made each new serving all the more enjoyable. Between courses, we were impressed with our servers' impeccable timing as they cleared away empty plates and brought back fresh ones. We definitely started 2022 off right by having a better meal at Traif than anywhere we visited in 2021. Can't wait to recommend to friends, family, and coworkers. Will be coming back again, for sure! read more

Came here for birthday dinner with the hubs and it was amazing. We did the chefs menu w/ wine pairing. Staff is very attentive and friendly. Each dish was very detailed and well thought out. Favorite was the tuna tartare on fried eggplant. I likes how each dish was very different from the next. Waiter check on us an we told him how pleased we were. So he told us about Xixa, which is the other restaurant that the owners own as well, which went went to before too! read more

I was very excited to try this place because of the reviews. We drove about an hour to get here and opted for the chef's choice menu for all four of us, which was a mistake. I have to preface this review with the fact that it was my boyfriend's dad's birthday, and he chose to go to an AYCE place for lunch so I had eaten way too much to be hungry for dinner. This is not this restaurant's fault. I feel like we would have had a better time here if I were more honest about being full and we had chosen to order things a la carte. We sat in the back of the restaurant which is a cute little greenhouse area overlooking a backyard with bamboo shoots. I really appreciated how friendly and informative our server was about drinks (she even let us try the orange wine, which was not to our liking but now we know!) and the menu. We were able to pick a couple of dishes we knew we wanted to be a part of our meal, and the rest were up to the kitchen. Everything was plated beautifully. The scallops and the duck were the dishes we chose, and they were both delicious, as was the tuna tartare. We really liked the risotto that came with the scallops. Everything else was okay but there were no standouts. We found ourselves racking our brains to remember what we had just eaten. The ribs were too sweet, the buffalo quail was not a great concept in practice, and the salad was alright though I don't usually love goat cheese. The pork wraps were very salty. I was too full to take more than a bite of each dish, which was good because the portions were very small to begin with so at least my boyfriend could eat more from my share. I did like that we were served two desserts because I love sweets, but even the key like pie and the donuts were just alright. I got the red pearl drink which was too thick to easily drink through a straw and had too much basil in it. The rest of the table shared a light red wine and learned that we should stick to our cabernets and what we know. Overall, I think it was unfortunate that I came full, and that we opted for the chefs menu, and we could've had a better experience here. However, the portions were also kind of ridiculous for the price, and a lot of menu items were too experimental and just didn't work in reality. It's telling when one of the only dishes the entire table really enjoyed was the scallops. It's very hard to mess them up. read more

I can't believe there hasn't been some annoying TikTok sharing the secret of how great this place is yet. But Traif deserves that hype. You really can't beat 11 courses for $55, especially when the courses are scallops, foie gras, duck. And all cooked to perfection. The backyard is too cute and the staff is lovely. I will definitely be coming here again and already told all my friends to come here for their next celebration or date. Also surprised this restaurant is categorized with 4 dollar signs--I'd say it's more like 3 with this insane chef's tasting deal. read more
