Minetta Tavern New York Reviews from The Last Year
Revisited MT after a few years on my birthday eve.
The 4 of us having recently been to Balthazar, were keen compare and contrast their sister restaurant. First of all, walking in you're greeted by the hostess and offered to check in your coat. The tables are set up in classic French bistro style, which is to say close to each other but not too close where comparatively Balthazar feels claustrophobic. Here the staff is familial and eager to make you feel like a regular. We started off with a round of martinis which albeit good were not amazing. Blue cheese stuffed olives felt chalky and martini wasn't dirty like requested. We got 2 orders of French onion soup and 2 brioche with seared foie gras. Both were tasty and fairly indistinguishable from Balthazar's . Mains were 2 steak frites which we upgraded to rib eye for around $10 more. While the steak was good it was on the thin side and some cuts felt chewy. Frites were spectacular and perfectly crispy and seasoned. Other 2 orders were beef bourguignon with potatoes which my guests raved about. We finished with flawless grand marnier souffle which arrived piping hot and topped off with generous pour of said liquor. Despite a few misses with Martini quality and occasionally absent minded waiters, we virtually closed the place and were never rushed to pay and leave.
excellent spot.
great ambiance and quality of food as well as service. they have an excellent wine selection. and are well known for their Minetta burger. I got the steak and it was cooked perfectly. the staff is excellent and also holds as a very intimate dining experience. very traditional NYC restaurant setting - highly recommend
They were so kind for my boyfriend's birthday when i asked
They were so kind for my boyfriend's birthday when i asked over the phone for a candle on his burger. They gave us delicious dessert too. So happy with our experience
Such a gem! Hostess at the front was so sweet! Asked if it
Such a gem! Hostess at the front was so sweet! Asked if it was our first time dining with them and when we told her yes, and she sat us at a wonderful table. Exceptional food and service. Can't wait to go again. Burgers are top notch. Highly recommend for a date night.
I really love the service here, the staff really take care
I really love the service here, the staff really take care of you and make you feel welcome. However I want to settle the burger debate for once and for all- IMO the burger is not the best thing on the menu but it IS worth trying. Now the question becomes, which burger? The black label burger is the restaurant's iconic $38 burger that is made with dry aged beef. A lot of reviews here recommend getting it with cheese. Next, their other offering is the Minetta burger, which comes with cheese and costs $31. My opinion is that I much prefer the Minetta burger. You can taste the difference in the meats, with the BLB having a richer and more "aged" taste (almost sweeter meat). However the Minetta burger is just as juicy, though more savory and is complimented so well by the cheese on top. I did try the BLB with cheese (because I love cheese) and tasted it side by side with the Minetta burger and Minetta was still my preference. As for best burger in the city, I prefer Au Cheval but everyone has their own opinion on the matter. Now for my favorite offerings on the menu, their steak frites dish is so flavorful and well done, and I was blown away by their Vol Au Vent appetizer. It consisted of a beautiful puff pastry with mushrooms, chicken pieces, and chicken jus. It was salty, rich, savory- SO good. I always get the chocolate soufflรฉ for dessert because it's so light and tasty. This is a great restaurant. Only drawback is how cramped it feels, but all the positives make up for this.
Minetta Tavern is a classic staple in New York's dining
Minetta Tavern is a classic staple in New York's dining scene, renowned for its old-world charm and exceptional cuisine. However, recent visits have revealed a surprising turn; it's now reminiscent of the buzz and vibe found at Carbone, another icon in its own right, but with a distinct "boomer" twist. Where Carbone elevates Italian-American staples to fine dining heights with a modern, energetic ambiance, Minetta Tavern holds onto a more traditional, almost nostalgic appeal. It's like stepping back in time, where the dรฉcor, music, and overall ambiance feel like a nod to the past, appealing to those who appreciate a slice of New York's rich history alongside their meal. The food, while still of high quality, seems to cater to a palate that appreciates classic, hearty dishes over the innovative twists and bold flavors that Carbone is known for. The service at Minetta Tavern maintains a professional, almost ceremonious demeanor, contrasting with Carbone's lively and sometimes theatrical approach. This isn't to say Minetta Tavern has lost its charm. On the contrary, it offers a unique experience for those looking for a quieter, more reflective dining experience. It's a place where time seems to slow down, allowing guests to savor each bite and every moment. In a city that's always rushing forward, Minetta Tavern, like a "boomer" version of Carbone, invites you to pause and appreciate the enduring appeal of New York's culinary classics.
Outstanding experience.
A long standing restaurant did not disappoint. Service staff was knowledgeable, attentive, and responsive. Clean and engaging setting.
Great time at Minetta Tavern.
Food was amazing! The service and atmosphere will be up there in our cherished memories of family trip to NY 2024.
We love this place.
The old school vibe and excellent food and service is worth the prices. The burger is superb.
Not worth it!
Whatever they did to get a michelin star they have long since abandonded. Ordered the bone marrow-it was undercooked. Followed that with a butter lettuce salad. House dressing was pretty bland and uninspiring. Hamachi crudo was up next. It was sauced with some component that immediately set the corners of my mouth alight with the same tingling acid sensation you get when you eat expired tomato sauce. To be fair, 4 days have passed and no gastro-related illness but the thought ran thru my mind all night after i tried the tuna. The main was a squab in puff pastry. Plenty of pastry and filling but a squab breast the size of a lemon wheel left me pretty disillusioned. Ordered both souffles-the chocolate was perfect. The grand marnier infused version was undercooked. And they charge you for tap water!
I love this place.
Quaint. Old school nyc. The vibe, atmosphere, service.., everything impeccable. Definitely go here, only gripe from 4-5 star is price. 31 to 38 burger, $25 drinks . It's packed because it's legit for every reason.... But it $$$$$$ for the experience. We'll be back, but w so many great spots, it'll be compared. Example - burgers $31-38. Very good, but..,. Be judicious
WORTH THE HYPE
Minetta Tavern Lives Up to the Hype. At times, the over hyped and highly acclaimed eateries so disappoint. This is NOT the case at Minetta Tavern. This meat-centric, relaxed, cozy, red walled, lower level restaurant / bar is packed, PACKED, with devotees waiting for a hard to snag seat at the bar or at a table. (TIP ONEโ- MAKE A RESERVATION.) The host staff is very pleasant and accommodating and seated us within 10 minutes of our reservation time. While the cocktails were not great, the food was DELICIOUS. We opted for oysters and the famous Black Label burger and fries. The oysters were flavorful, buttery and a great starter. The standout was the Black Label burger and fries. The shoe string fries were hot, crispy, salty scrumptiousness. The burger was thick, juicy, delectable, perfectly seared and seasoned. The meat blend was yummy and top notch. (I know, I know, Iโm raving about a burger and fries, but it IS rave worthy!) The burgers were prepared exactly as ordered, bun on the side and medium and medium rare. SO DELICIOUS! Continuing to completely disregard calorie and cholesterol concerns, we shared a chocolate soufflรฉ for dessert. As if the burger and fries alone werenโt enough to keep us coming back, the service was very warm, so attentive, uber friendly and helpful. Our server, Ella, was terrific! (TIP TWOโEAT AT MINETTA TAVERN, and, to truly enjoy the delicious food, leave your dietary concerns at the curb.) Minetta Tavern, we, too, are now devotees.
Did not eat. BEWARE of reservation credit card security.
Like many restaurants in NYC, a credit card is needed to "secure a reservation. However, at Minetta Tavern, a credit card must be given to the reservation office, not the restaurant itself and unlike other establishments, their credit card security system is less than secure. In two (not one) previous occasions my credit card was charged a "no show" fee even though I arrived and checked in well WITHIN the 15 minutes buffer. Evidently someone in "reservation" had made a decision to charge my card. Therefore, based on my conversation with the restaurant's staff I decided to show for dinner at 5:00 pm on 01/04, as I was told a table was available. Upon my arrival at 4:58 pm, the table was no longer available, and I had to change my plans. Either risk to be inappropriately charged OR take a chance at not finding an open table. Post Covid the staff has become arrogant and rude, and seem not to care.
Consistently Great
Minetta never disappoints. The steak and burgers are among the best in the city. They also have a great wine selection with good value
Paris in New York
Outstanding restaurant in every aspect. Ambience, staff and service, food, selection, presentation and flavours. Our welcome from Victoria was old school welcoming with utter class. Jeremy our server was simply the best. Knowledgeable, approachable, full service and personality that screamed top rated French restaurant. In every aspect great experience.
A classic.
We had Thanksgiving dinner here. It was a wonderful dinner. The bone marrow was delicious. The atmosphere is one of the best in New York City.
Nice place e good burger
After many tries to make a reservation, qe decided to visit this place without reservation because. We arrived around of 9:30PM and we were luck to ger a table. We ordered a local draft beer and a Minerta Burger to share. Both beer and burger were good. The burger is well served and more than enough to one person. Aftar we tried a apple with vanila icecream. The tavern was crowded with a good vibe. The only thing that bothered us was the waiter that put pressure on us to order more food or drinks.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been โmatchedโ with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
