Restaurants near Hotel Boutique at Grand Central

Everything was great. Food, ambient, music. Thank you !

Our visit today was an annual celebration which started at a restaurant called Christ Cella (if I spelled it correctly) in 1982. We bounced around at every meaningful steakhouse thereafter, but settled on Sparks perhaps 20 or more years ago. We absolutely love it. Today was no exception. The food was, as always, wonderful. The steaks and sea bass were prepared perfectly and presented in the same manner. Hector took care of our party and was great. I cannot say enough great things about Sparks. Thanks for being there ....

A dinner leading up the Christmas week at the Oyster Bar needs to be on everyone’s agenda when in Manhattan. The ambiance, vibe, food and service are spot on.

The food was delicious! French onion soup is a must, perfectly melted Gruyère and a generous amount of soup. I also had the Croque Monsieur which was so filling and beautifully melted. Great ambience, attentive staff and we were not rushed. Made for an absolutely wonderful family get together. Will be back!

There were 10 of us & we had made reservations at 5 pm as we had 7 pm theater tickets. Our table was ready for us upon arrival & our waiter was friendly & on point from start to finish. Service was great without feeling rushed & his wine suggestion was perfect. The portions are huge so we started with the calamari & Caesar salad which was plenty for all of us & both very good. We chose 4 dishes, Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Scaloppine, Rigatoni & Broccoli, & Penne alla Vodka & all were delicious. We all commnted that the Penne was the best we’d had as the sauce was not too heavy & perfectly spiced. Although we could have only ordered 3 dishes, we all enjoyed the variety of the 4 choices. We finished off with cappuccinos for the table & made it to the theater with 15 minutes to spare. We couldn’t have picked a better restaurant & the bonus was it was very reasonable. Great job Carmine’s!!
