Best Seasonal Restaurants in Rockefeller Center

Oceana is one of those places that consistently delivers an outstanding dining experience. My family went for an after Broadway dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the food, ambiance and noise level that allowed easy conversation. This is why we go back often and are never disappointed.

First time going to the Plaza Hotel for afternoon tea. Pleasantly surprised with the quality and service considering the mixed reviews. Sandwiches were delicious and there seemed to be endless tea in the teapot. Mary was amazing at making this experience memorable! She was super nice, informative, and great at anticipating what works for us! Would definitely go back.

Hidden gem. Deviled eggs were delightful. Lobster Neapolitan was outstanding. BG dessert was so rich and decadent

We were so pleased with our first visit to Carmine's. My husband and I usually travel to NYC alone, and have never gone before because we heard how large the portions are - and they are NOT kidding. There were 7 of us for dinner, and we shared a Caesar Salad, Cheesy Garlic Bread, Rigatoni Bolognese, Eggplant Parm, Veal Scallopini, and Tiramisu and it was perfect portions. Only thing we took home was the Garlic Bread (which the 19-year-old scarfed down likely before it made it to the hotel fridge.) Paul our server was fantastic - happy to see our family reunion the day after Christmas with family from Myrtle Beach. The restaurant is crowded and loud, so expect that - but it's a fun environment and you can tell it's mostly families just having a great time. This dinner capped off a perfect day celebrating the 19-year-old's first Broadway Show.

Josh our server was great and made our Christmas dinner experience amazing. His recommendations for the meatball app and use the house bread for dipping was such a tasty way to go. He was able to switch some sauces and toppings around for my daughter to get the lemon butter sauce for her sea bass and she loved it. The rest of the family got steaks at his recommendation and they really melted in your mouth. It was our first time there but because of everyone’s professionalism we will be back!!!!
