Dining at La Grande Boucherie in New York was nothing short of a magical experience, made all the more memorable by the exceptional service provided by our waiter, Maria. From the moment we were seated, Maria brought an extraordinary blend of professionalism, warmth, and genuine charm to the table. Her attentiveness was impeccable, ensuring every detail of our evening was seamless, yet she carried it all with such an effortless grace that made us feel completely at ease. Maria's vibrant personality added a personal touch to the evening, making it feel less like a dinner and more like a celebration. She had the rare ability to anticipate our needs without being intrusive and engaged us with her infectious energy and lovely demeanor. What truly set her apart, though, was the thoughtfulness she demonstrated at the end of the evening. As a token of kindness and to mark our last night in New York, Maria surprised us with a small, heartfelt gift. It was an incredibly touching gesture that we will treasure for years to come. La Grande Boucherie’s enchanting ambiance and delicious cuisine were unforgettable on their own, but it was Maria’s exceptional service that elevated the entire experience. Her warmth, charm, and thoughtfulness left a lasting impression and made our evening truly special

Celebrated my birthday here for the 2nd year in a row. Didn’t think that we would ever repeat last year’s dinner. But, last night was the best meal and service we have had in the city in a long time. Everyone from our waiter, manager and sommelier were fantastic. We will definitely not wait a year before we come back.

We’ve eaten at Carmine’s a few times now but we love eating there during this time of year. Carmine’s is the perfect spot for a festive holiday meal! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with beautiful decorations that set the holiday mood. The service is top-notch—attentive and friendly, making you feel right at home. Their family-style Italian dishes are absolutely delicious, with generous portions that are perfect for sharing. So, for being in the heart of NYC, it’s a decent value for our family. Whether it’s a holiday gathering or just a night out, Carmine’s delivers a memorable dining experience

The staff is superb. The two front desk reception people greet perfectly, accompany guests to the assigned table and stop by to ensure all is well. Adrian, our server, is superb. Explained the menu, made good suggestions and despite the crowd made sure we were happy. The food is outstanding but the noise level is a disaster! We could not carry on a conversation without adding to the din. The room manager is also a very polite customer focused man who also stopped to insure we were happy. Noise aside, we will be back.:))

Tucked into Central Park, Tavern on the Green was the perfect holiday experience to round out our Christmas in NYC trip! Cozy and festive decor paired with impeccable service and delectable food makes this a “must try” for anyone looking to soak in the magic that is Christmas in New York! I highly recommend the honey roasted fig appetizer and the pan seared scallop entree.
