Restaurants near Christmas in Bryant Park

The food was spectacular - from appetizers through the fresh fish to the desserts. Service was excellent. The prices are a bit steep, but the experience is worth it if you can afford it. My only gripe was the noise. They could benefit from some simple noise dampening techniques (tapestries on the walls and ceilings, for example).

I had an amazing experience here! The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. The staff was super friendly and attentive, specially Jose at the bar he made sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing meal. Can’t wait to come back

Absolutely exceeded expectations. The staff managed the very busy restaurant exceptionally. Our service was unmatched, and the food was amazing. Our server was clear on the portion size. The dishes serve 2-3 people. We planned accordingly and still had leftovers. This restaurant is a must dine for NYC.

A lovely welcome from start to finish, first visit & the Carmine way was explained to avoid us over ordering our waitress Marianne was informative, friendly & warm. A wholesome portion of mozzarella topped garlic bread to share between two of us, the portion was huge & delicious - we were unable to finish the dish. The lasagne was to die for, tasty & hearty but again too big for the two of us & we can normally eat well. I can honestly say we have officially been Carmined, recommended by fellow Brits & I will be returning with my experience & recommending to fellow travellers, thank you Carmines x

Classic breakfast/lunch spot. Not super fancy but clean, nice and enough space between tables. Food was excellent. Service was great. Staff very friendly! Make a reservation if you have more than 2 people. We were glad we did during holiday season. Its nice to sit and eat right across from Bryant Park with ongoing Christmas shoppes, Tree, music and skating. Theres lots of food vendors but also lines so we were glad to have breakfast already!!!
