Short review: Notably awful carpaccio, decent main dish. Alright dessert. Very overpriced. Very pretty. I would first off describe the spot as overpriced and very pretty but it 's in Soho so I 'm not exactly sure what I was expecting but even more so leaning in both directions. A good example is their sour cherry juice which is $10 which is probably the most egregiously overpriced drink in the city. It was most likely Tamek, a brand you can buy for literally 2-3$ in any market and that 's the consumer price (at least they added a lime. Anyway I was here with five others. The service was mostly polite though they took ages to bring out their rather good bread and they didn 't bring out a refi...
We really really wanted to like this restaurant, but it just did not do it for us. We grabbed a reservation the day before, which was a bit of a rarity for this poppin' SoHo spot. The decor really made it stand out when we were searching for Mediterranean cuisine, and from the positive reviews, we figured we'd give it a shot, despite the hefty price tag. We were seated promptly and service was good, though the one single bathroom for both the indoor and outdoor seating created issues. We went with the Mezze plate starter, the Branzino, and the Grass Fed Lamb Chops. The food came out within a reasonable time frame, and we were given as much bread as we needed for our mezzes which were hit and...
After spending a Friday evening shopping around Soho whats better than mediterranean to tape the night. my friend and i saw this spot was close to suit supply so we figured lets try it we didnt have a reservation but they were still able to seat us outside. we were served and helped immediately, however, it started raining and no one was helping us but all the other outside tables were helped immediately. after we made aggressive eye contact with one of the staff he just said you guys are good? like sir ..... its raining, why do i have to spell it out for you to move us inside like literally everyone else. this left such a bad taste in my mouth. in terms of food we ordered a ton of small pla...
Let's start with the positives, shall we: The Space: I chose this restaurant for dinner because it looked like such a cool space to eat and it absolutely was. We loved the old timey feel with lots of antiques everywhere, candle light, etc. No edits here. Service: All of our waiters were great, super helpful, kind, courteous, very pleasant to interact with. The bread: Loved the bread. It was warm and plentiful. I was surprised it wasn't pita, but it was good. The profiteroles yummy and covered in chocolate. Who wouldn't like these? Negatives: The Food: The food was just ok. I'm fine paying higher NYC prices for a good meal, but the food was pretty underwhelming. My mother got the muscles and...

My friends and I decided to not complete our reservation at Galli next door due to their poor management and rude attitude. This was actually my second time here. The first time I came here was maybe 5/6 years ago. I can't recall how my experience was then, but I believe it was equally as good. The night we decided to go here, it was extremely windy, cold and rainy out, so we were so glad when we realized that Antique Garage had a heated dining option available for us without any reservations. The host and waiters at Antique garage welcomed us with smiles and made our experience enjoyable. We ordered the boreki for appetizer and we ordered the durum kebab and lamb burgers for our entrees. Ev...
Delicious Turkish themed food at this SOHO spot. It's a square dining room with about 15 tables. Bar at the back. Cool chandelier in the center, eclectic decorations on exposed brick walls. About 15 tables outside, on the sidewalk and a street top covered platform. Sonia did a great job serving. She's friendly, accurate and efficient and was a pleasure to meet. Thank you! Tried a **** Mary to start. It is well mixed, spicy and slightly sweet, garnished with a skewer of spicy olives. Next, the COP shish kebab. This is slender chunks of lamb tenderloin, generously spiced, skewered and grilled. The meat is tender, moist and very flavorful. Perfect for dipping in the creamy, tangy, garlicky tzaz...
Overpriced for average food. The portions were on the smaller side especially for the pastas. Definitely not good value for the money. You are really paying for the atmosphere. The decor and ambiance are wonderful. It has a very European vibe. We ordered a variety of dishes and while some taste better than others most were average, and all were fairly expensive. For appetizers we ordered the Meze Platter and this was a disappointment. It's pretty much bread, not even pitas, with a variety of dipping sauce (hummus, tzatziki, etc). For $34, I wish I could have some meat and pita instead of bread to dip it in. If you come hungry (skipping meals before), you'll leave hungry if you have just one...
Very Very Flavorful!! We loved everything we got! The only thing is it wasn't warm. Everything was room temperature! We wanted hot food so that wasn't the best! If they get the food hot, it will be a game changer. Flavors melded perfect together.

This is a great little date spot. The decor is unique and feels cozy and elegant. It is a bit pricey though and the food was generally ok. I would go back more for the ambiance, a drink and just a light snack. Not full on dinner.
Shocked to see the reviews aren't higher! We had the best time. The vibe was cozy and we got a bunch of things to share and were happy with it all robust wine list and we LOVED the wine special!!
