    There was a slight delay to opening but once open , we were welcomed with festive cheer, and were guided to seat by the window. The panoramic view of New York City was breathtaking. The service and the food were both amazing and considering that we had purchased a package, we were very surprised that we were able to select from the full menu and found that this was remarkably good value for money. The menu offered a a small but very delicious selection for what I would imagine would suit most people‘s taste. In our case, they very good at accommodating a peanut allergy. We elected to purchase additional sides of vegetables to accompany our meals, and highly recommend the carrots, they were amazing, as were the truffle fries. The Barman was sensational & created delicious cocktails - I enjoyed the Manhatten Mule. The atmosphere in One Dine was very happy and upbeat considering it was Christmas Eve however, for our family, we were also able to use it as a time of reflection. My family and I highly recommend taking the time to enjoy the experience of dining at One Dine at the One World Observatory.

    We had not been here since our last visit NYC a couple of years ago. Very happy to have made it back. Quaint small bistro in SoHo. Appetizer we had the Pear Salad and the Mussels with Garlic and White Wine broth. Both were superb. The entrees we both had the same. Cod served over lentils and a saffron sauce. The fish was perfectly cooked, flaky and moist. Dessert we shared the Apple Tartine. The flavor was excellent, but I think it was warmed on a microwave so the texture was too mushy. Drank a very nice bc Pouilly-Fuisse,

    We came expecting great food, but we didn’t anticipate how much fun we’d have! From the lively vibe and great music to the energetic and friendly crowd, the atmosphere was a ten out of ten. The space was warm and inviting, buzzing with excitement yet relaxed enough to enjoy great conversation. We'll definitely be back for next month's pop-up!

    Vibes are cozy and upscale. The food was delicious, unfortunately some of the cocktails were a bit off/not to our liking, but the wine choices were fantastic and the waiter was quick to make a swap. The team at Jeans made my birthday party extra special with a champagne toast at the end of the night! Thanks all - can't wait to come back!
