We arrived at 7:35 for our 7:45 reservation. We had asked for a table outside, and they indicated it would just be a few minutes. Around 8:05 they offered us a table inside, but we decided to wait for our outdoor table. We were seated around 8:20, but didn’t get any service until about 8:30. After that the food was okay. The small plate we got was great and our dinners were fine. She got the chicken and I got the Neapolitan. Austin, our server, was very nice and brought us a free dessert for our trouble, which we appreciated.

Our party of 4 went to Bistro 821 in mid February ‘25….in the middle of season. As expected, it was extremely busy on 5th Avenue. We were promptly greeted…maybe waited 5 extra minutes for our table…and although you could tell the staff was working their tails off with a packed house, we could not have had a more pleasant server…who took great care of us. The food was timely…delicious…this was a 5 star experience and I can’t wait to go back….way to go Bistro 821!

So disappointed this time. Made res for son’s anniversary, they put the two of them upstairs in a room w a big family, poor service resulting in 2-1/2 hr meal. Excellent food but a lousy experience.

I have not patronized the 821 because of the Seabass dinners flavor has gotten terrible. We wanted to give 821 one more shot, and told the waitress who is lovely that we were very dissatisfied with our meals the last due times . She informed us.the cook had been relieved of the duties and the previous manager has been returned. Our meals were Delicious and we will be back often.
