"This venue has recently re-opened, and for whatever reason this fact has not been widely publicized. As a result, you get a venue that is a literal stone's throw from Lincoln Center that has incredible views, fantastic upscale small plates, and an ambiance that can't be beat. You can walk around, sample different seating areas both indoor and out. The renovation was overseen by the crew that runs Campbell Apartment and it shows. Go before the word gets out, because I can see this place getting absolutely packed once it does. Menu specifics: we ordered their pork buns, duck confit tacos, & loaded tater tots (all absolutely delicious) along with a selection of their craft cocktails (which were nice and strong). Quick & courteous service from friendly, well dressed staff was a nice plus. If I had one not to pick - the elevator that takes you to the 12th floor is very slow, but that's really the only thing wrong with an otherwise outstanding venue."See more

"As always, my meal at a bar Boulud was extraordinary. I had the trout and could barely resist licking the plate. Gorgeous to look at and the different vegetable and sauce combined to make one of the best dinners I've ever had."See more

"Server was lovely, also patient with us as we sat down, we hadn't seen each other or chatted for years. Did not expect large chicken filet with very modest size salad, would have preferred sizes reversed. Wonderful for pre-Lincoln Center matinee."See more

"Very comfortable. Met a friend for lunch. Convenient to discount parking and Lincoln Center. Lovely staff and service. Curried chicken salad was good, but could have used more curry. Very ample lunch."See more

"Hot hot dumplings of all kind, lovely a la carte menu -- especially liked the fish filets in light sauce with ginger! Everything tasted fresh and was served with gracious gesture. Not a very busy evening, as the Debate was scheduled for later that evening."See more

"This has become a favorite spot for our regular quarterly meeting of friends. Great place for top notch food, terrific service with personality and comfortable seating to talk about life and purpose. Duck, Prawns with walnuts, and spare ribs are delicious. And dining under the dragon adds the perfect touch!"See more

"I decided at the last minute to dine alone before a performance at Lincoln Center. I was made to feel welcome and comfortable as a solo diner. The shrimp tacos I ordered were delicious."See more

"Lovely Restaurant Week lunch. I particularly appreciated the Restaurant Week wine selections, a chardonnay and a cabernet at $29.00. We had the cabernet, Australian, good, and for $29, a true bargain. Marvelous, attentive service, delicious food (high marks for the planked octopus, the shrimp in aioli, and the ratatouille with the slow cooked egg) and the dessert, peach nectarine crostata, was worth its caloric value. We had a beautiful long lunch, not very New Yorkish, but most welcome."See more

"Our bartender was great! Sham did a wonderful job serving us!"See more

"Love, love, love this restaurant. It's a favorite for preperformance dining. Delicious, spicy, savory food, and terrific service. A bit pricey, but worth it. Comfortable seats, fairly quiet, and no strollers allowed. Yippee!"See more

"This was our first visit to this restaurant, and we will be back. The room has a lovely ambience, and the food is terrific. They don't play music, so the noise level is just people talking (not having to yell at each other). Our waiter was friendly and helpful. This near Lincoln Center, and they cater to those who have to get to a concert, opera or ballet."See more
