$$$ no go ALL my food was lukewarm and very pricey. It was like it had been placed under a heat lamp. I had a cappuccino after that was also lukewarm and had been sitting around awhile. We had a beautiful view and good friends to talk to while we ate. Our waiter was very friendly and did his best. I would not recommend this restaurant. There are so many others that have better food and cost a lot less for the experience.

$$$$$ Me and my girlfriend we were looking for an italian restaurant. Service was excellent very friendly staff. Food is overpriced for what it is $100 for a pepperoni pizza, pasta and 2 small cokes. The Place is fancy if you’re trying to impress your partner but if you’re just traveling not a good place to eat at.

$$$$ Dining for $$ Room 39 has all the hallmarks I look for in a good restaurant: local sourcing, farm-to-table approach to the menu, balance of flavors, and the ability to make good wine pairings for each course. The food is what will bring you back, but the service is also up to snuff. You can order off the a la carte menu, but you shouldn't bother. Set the menu down, order the tasting menu, and let the kitchen work their magic. I would recommend reservations. The tasting menu is a steal at under $50, and you can add wine pairings for another $35. For KC, this is a bit on the high end, but it's worth the price. Next time I'm in the area, I will be going back.

$18 per glass of wine and when we went up to bar to request napkins and more water for the table, napkins from the bathroom and glasses of water were rudely shoved onto our table while our empty water glasses laid unattended on the table. Also, this place only has a few food items that are all salty items to ensure patrons keep drinking their overpriced drinks. Here’s a hot tip: If you have run out of napkins at a venue like this, have some sense send someone down the street to buy appropriate napkins to get you through your shortage. Do not commingle things from the bathroom on dining tables, particularly when you price your menu this way. There are much better cocktail and wine spots in Tribeca…and the city at large. So, that’s where I will go…

$13 bucks for ramen on Fremont Street!! There's probably no better value than TOMO noodles downtown. I hope they don't raise their prices, because the ramen is totally worth it. The flavor, quality, size portions is all there for the tokontsu noodle bowl. I have no complaints at all. I went when the place was empty so not sure if the quality declines if they were busy. The food came very fast. Plenty of places to sit and dine in comfort at this food hall. Needless to say, i was surprised by how good this place was. I had tempered expectations given the low price for this ramen bowl and I was pleasantly surprised. The Laughing Lion on Youtube 😻.

$I only gave this place 1 star because I could not give it 0 We read on the internet that this place had award winning wings, a buddy and I order 2 half dozen each which came to 32$ (wild price for 12 wings) we didn’t mind the price to get good award winning wings, we left with our 12 wings and ate at work otherwise I wouldn’t have walked back in and demanded a refund. The boneless wings were tiny gross burnt chicken nuggets smaller then Wendy’s and McDonald’s nuggets smothered in sauce, the ranch and blue cheese were gross they tasted old and expired and freezer burnt freezing cold and chunky even the ranch. For 32 dollars I expect real wings not tiny chicken nuggets and for a half dozen I expect 6 wings I guess the cook can’t count because I had 5 in each order, I wouldn’t eat here even it was free, after spending 32$ on these chicken nuggets we were starving, my worst purchase and food experience in NY in 10 years, do not go here for wings there are a million other cheaper options that taste a lot better and give you a lot more food. I spent 30+ at pug uglies and the boneless wings tasted amazing and were giant , 10 of them lasted me 2 days.

We worked with Connie at Buenos Aires Tours and she was fabulous. She helped us plan our entire trip from Buenos Aires, Iguazu Falls, Salta, Jujuy and Patagonia. She booked all our flights and hotels and excursions catering it to our needs and price points. The trip was incredible and went off without a hitch. She always checked in on us to make sure which was greatly appreciated. She also helped me out on my flight home ( which I booked) and went to great effort to ensure I was on the flight and checked in. I would highly recommend Connie and her guides were outstanding in each region. Robin Cooper

Tried to overcharge my friend for 6 green tea shots, 232 total. I paid 90 for the same amount 30 minutes prior. Staff on duty tried to argue that she didn’t have to return the receipt I gave her for a comparison with what they tried charging him. Takes advantage of tipsy customers, and that reflects on the quality of the bar. Also gross bathrooms. EDIT: Owner also likes to lie when called out apparently. At no time did we order a double. In fact she was arguing at the time that we tried to order green tea shots with something besides Jameson and that justified the price increase.

Great mixology here, great cocktails. I really enjoy having great conversations here. I come here often, and service has always been great. Prices are a bit reasonable for what you get, but it's a good time every time I'm in the Chinatown area. Great place!
