    For a business meeting it’s tough execution and noisy but casual enough to take Junior staff to have a nice and fun informal lunch.

    Grabbed a quick bite an hour before the Kevin Hart Comedy Show at Radio City Music Hall. The service and food were both phenomenal.

    Overall an excellent time as always but I’m a little burned by the fact that I’m charged $5 for a seltzer water - other than that everything was great

    Our server was friendly and attentive. We were in a burger & shake mood after a taping in the neighbourhood so it was perfect. Only comment about the specialty shakes with decorative candy on the outside of the glass. I so wanted to eat the Candy but it was impossible

    We were quickly sat, which was great. Our server then came over and asked "Are you ready?" No greeting, no hello, no menu presentation, she didn't ask if we had any questions. We were not ready, she walked away and came back and asked "Do you need more time?" We did not, we ordered, Bill's Burger, fries and the caramel shake. I was surprised that the server did not take a temperature on the burger. The food came out quickly and the caramel milkshake was by far the highlight out of the burger, fries and shake. The server walked past us at one point and said "everything good?" without stopping to check if we were enjoying things. The name of restaurant has the name Burger in it, we had the expectation that the burger would be good, we were wrong. We both agreed this is one of the worst burgers we have had. It was very overcooked and the cheese on my friends burger looked like someone poured cheese soup on the burger. We are going on a tour of the city checking out burgers and we learned we will not be back! The food bad, the service worse and it felt like we would have been better off with a tablet to order off of, rather than be dismissed by the rude server. We will not be back, but the atmosphere was cute and I understand why it’s kid friendly. I didn’t know this was a Landry’s property! I found out after the fact. I would have used my Landry’s card, but the server never asked if I had one. Another disappointment. I expect much more from Landry’s restaurants! Very disappointing
