Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Columbus Circle

Always a wonderful experience at Cafe Luxembourg. The service, personnel and staff are all friendly and informative. The food is very consistent and deliciously prepared, whether they are the menu entrees or the dinner specials. Always a nice selection of beverages. We enjoy dining here as it is also convenient to Lincoln Center venues, just a short walk.

We had a big group of 7 of us and wanted to eat close to the Lincoln Center prior to the Ballet. Smith was fantastic. The food was spot on, and the service was even better. This will be our new go-to when we visit NYC and go to any performances at the Lincoln Center. Thanks to the staff at Smith for a memorable meal with friends to kick off an incredible night

I picked this restaurant by looking at online reviews. I could not have made a better choice. Our reservation was on time. We walked in, sat down and were immediately greeted by our server. Emily was her name. She was without a doubt, one of the best servers I have ever had the pleasure of working with she treated my wife and me as if we were her only customer and we were the most important people in the restaurant. It was truly a special occasion for us. The food was everything that she had said it would be and everything that I read online. It was fabulous. We took her suggestions for some of the dishes we got and every suggestion she made was fantastic. I will go back to Carmines anytime I’m in New York City.

Lovely, elegant greek restaurant with perfect service and amazing food. All in a great Rock Ctr location. If you are looking for clean Mediterranean food without the midtown crowds and crushing noise, this is the place.

Wonderful way to kick off a girls trip in NYC!! Champagne and lobster roll were fantastic!!
