ABC always delivers. Food was great, tasty and well prepared. Everything came out hot. We had a nice cozy table and the service was quite attentive. Only thing to be mindful of: pacing of the food was a little fast. Mains arrived before we were done with the salad.

ABC Kitchen is one of my favorite NYC restaurants. I love the ambience -- a darkened room with twinkly lights, noisy but still allowing for conversation, helpful staff. Most recently I had the salmon and it was outstanding. My husband said his sea bass was the best he had ever had. I'll be looking forward to my next meal there.

Our hostess was very helpful and changed our table as we felt we were not shown the best one given how much in advance we had made the reservation. Overall the service was great and the appetizers were very good. My hamburger was mediocre and the bun was burnt. I had it redone. All in all, good experience.
