Best International Restaurants in New Vernon

Absolutely delicious drinks and food, with great service. We were on our mini honeymoon & requested to sit by the window. They were able to accommodate our request. The severs were knowledgeable and went out of their way to educate us about the gins in our drinks. I think one of their names was Eva or close to it? She was incredible. She recommended excellent gin cocktails based on me and my husband’s preferences. I normally don’t like gin, but both drinks were incredible. She even brought the bottles to the table for us to take pictures of. The food was mostly great. We ordered 4 tapas and shared them: truffle fries, the octopus, calamari, and tuna tartar. The octopus was a little cold and I didn’t love the croquets but that was just my opinion. The tuna was SO GOOD and so were the fries and calamari. I don’t love wasabi and was worried about the wasabi caviar but it was so subtle that it was enjoyable and not overpowering. I’d love to go back!!! It’s a must-try while you’re in the city. It also has a speakeasy in the back - I found out after we left so I didn’t get to try it lol

Good food, excellent service and nice location. Great midtown restaurant option.

This is the second time I've visited New York City at holiday time in recent years and have made an effort to have afternoon tea at the Whitby. It's a classy relaxed place with a special touch at holiday time

The food and service were great. The bread was nice and warm. We has the crab augratin and the Q'tal salad as appetizers and it was delicious. I had a pinot grio and my friend hasbthebberry passion which she said was delicious. As entrees, we had the half chicken and salmon dishes and it did not disappoint. For dessert er had tiramimus and Brule with cappuccino. The desserts was great. I thought the cappuccino was not hot. It was warm. And the was the only issue but I still enjoyed it. Overall, it was a great experience. Loved it.

The ambiance, the food and the wait staff were all phenomenal! I will definitely revisit this restaurant again the near future
