SAGA Pine Street New York Reviews from The Last Year
had the summer menu and while the service and different
had the summer menu and while the service and different environments were great (you are greeted at the bar with a custom welcome drink; they then have you enjoy the cocktail on the patio with amazing views), the food doesnt quite match the 2 Michelin star level or the price. the tomato salad and tart were rather simple and the flavors were not complex. the short rib tagine had a bunch of fun elements and the communal aspect was cool, but ultimately I have had plenty of tastier short rib/ribeye dishes. although the dessert was simply incredible, one of the best i've had in my life. ultimately, it's not a place you go to for amazing food, its more about the experience, which isn't something I prioritize over flavor.
A great 2 star michelin restaurant.
A very creative, blends Japanese, Marocain, and high end cooking. Amazing view from the rooftop and service.
It was worth it to us! As visitors from upstate NY, this
It was worth it to us! As visitors from upstate NY, this was an excellent dining experience and NYC-vibe-and-vista all in one. Some of our party enjoyed the wine pairing very much so, despite not being super into wine. The sommelier, Juan, did a great job with the cool stories and history of the wine. Biggest drawback was waiting over an hour before we had a bite of food. Once the food started though, the pacing was enjoyable. Slow paced but pretty much perfect for the large amount of food over many courses. Plus we were a party of 6. Also, the bathrooms are like pitch black?? I hope they fix that!
I've been here once.
Really amazing location. Love the quiet and serene atmosphere. You really do feel above it all. We came earlier in the evening so that we could be there while the sun was still up and dine watching it set. I loved the chefs personally story and experiences behind the dishes. I don't think I LOVED every dish but I enjoyed everything and the story behind the fusions and how they related to the chef's personal journey made it all memorable, interesting, and engaging. A great location for a very special date.
Absolutely amazing.
My guest and I had specified early on that we needed to be out quickly; I couldn't be happier with how dinner went, despite the rushed service! Every course was certainly created with the upmost care and devotion to the craft. my favorite course had to be the dessert; a take on an apple crumble. They even sent us off with a bag of bonbons. Will definitely be returning.
One of the best tasting menus in the city they have chilli
One of the best tasting menus in the city they have chilli honey for duck. 7 course meal very inventive
Service - I love how friendly the team at SAGA is.
Everyone has a personality! Which to me helps separate them from other Michelin and fine dining places that can feel pretentious. Ambiance - 70 pine is an iconic landmark of nyc and inside at SAGA plays tribute to the historic architecture of the building. The terraces provide breathtaking views of the city. The down side is how far the bathroom is Food - I did the 7 course Winter menu. I thought all the flavors really married together well from start to finish. Each bite packing quite a punch of flavor and creativity. My favorite thing of the night was the caviar and potatoes, and the lobster, the black pepper sauce paired with it was surprisingly so good!
A worthwhile excursion for those collecting stars or
A worthwhile excursion for those collecting stars or looking for an extravagant meal on notice of two weeks or less. Compared to other restaurants at its price point, or as an introduction to fine dining, I found Saga to be contemporary to a fault. Waiting 20 minutes for the elevator while listening to thumping music is out of sorts. The bar/patio experience at the start must be the bottleneck that causes things to get backed up. The restaurant is beautiful and the view is nice. The menu is wildly executed, my chief complaint being the sushi / veggie bites course that photographs well but demands digging your fingernails into the wooden boxes to pinch the slippery food. The meal finishes strongly, with the Moroccan influence crystalizing toward the end and, as you've probably heard, the dry-aged duck being the star of the show. Service, which should be flawless at this price point, was high touch, high density, and medium commitment, but lacked enthusiasm and seamlessness. I liked it, and the meal was exciting, but Saga won't be for everyone.
TLDR; food was amazing, creative and enjoyable.
Service was good, view was amazing. Spend the money - it's worth it. Saga has been on my list for a while. I believe food should tell a story, which is why I love James Kent so much. We went last night to celebrate my birthday. In all honesty, the experience would be a 5 if it weren't for the rocky start and the lack luster amuse bouche. That being said, after not receiving drinks nor food for over half an hour; the service following made up for the beginning of the night. I enjoyed the playfulness and whimsy of the food while still having a balance of elegance. The bento box was so creative, surprisingly the veggies were our favorites. Tiny but packed with flavor and texture. Our favorite part of the meal was the celery root and bone marrow. So beautiful and incredibly delicious!
About a 1-1.
5: SAGA is located on on the 63rd floor of what was once the AIG building, which offers a course- and a seasonal tasting menu. It seems as if the fare is Moroccan-focused. We had: +a freeze-dried diced oyster with cucumber and citrus +a set of sushi, canapes, and dips - +royal sturgeon caviar - the buttermilk dashi was unnecessary and ruined this +king trumpet mushroom - enjoyed the chicken skin bits +cobia - the ramen broth was way too sour for our taste +dry-aged duck - this was an okay main dish that was shareable +Moroccan tea - would have been nice if this was served throughout the meal +an apple tart - the miso butterscotch was offputting and did not complement Unfortunately, we were confused how this restaurant received 2 Michelins, and didn't feel that the price point matched what was received in terms of quality and the flavor. Service was attentive. +super sour courses
I struggled between giving 2 and 3 stars for Saga.
I will say there are two main reasons for my rating. 1. The price point is pretty ridiculous for what you are actually getting, although they do try and make the experience memorable. 2. The menu really has a lot of flaws and for a 2 Michelin star restaurant, that really should not be the case. Everything should be perfect and taste flawless. My sister had another complaint, which is that the Sommelier was weak. Time should be taken to explain the courses and the flavor profiles of the wines and how each one would go with each course and then offer a variety of selections. I'm not a wine drinker, but even I know this and watching the Sommelier at a supposed 2 Michelin star restaurant effectively mail it in and provide no insight was very disappointing. The bartender who made our pre-meal drinks was a superstar compared to the Sommelier. Ok, on to the food, because there were some highlights and lowlights. But overall, for what we paid, the overall meal would be a lowlight and I doubt I would ever come back, given the price point. Just for reference, our final bill for a party of 4, including 2 bottles of medium priced wine, tax and gratuity was $2K. At 500 a head, this should have been my most memorable meal of the year from a Positive standpoint. Instead, it's the opposite. Amuse Bouche - freeze dried diced oyster, with cucumber and a hint of citrus. This was a nice starter, tastes were clean and the gastronomy aspect of it was nice. Bento Box - Assorted sushi, canapés, dips and so you could have a variety of tastes and flavor combinations. This was very fun! second best course of the night, it was just unique and a good table course to invoke conversation and try different flavor/texture combinations. Royal Sturgeon Caviar - this is where the meal started to go south. It was a good portion of caviar and the crab underneath was good. But they put a buttermilk dashi over all of it that was disgusting. The sour notes just ruined the dish overall. My sister refused to eat it. She said the smell and taste invoked memories of vomit for her and after she mentioned that, I really couldn't get that taste out of my head. King Trumpet Mushroom - Not a bad dish in and of itself. And some components were amazing. The bowl of Sabayon with crispy chicken skin bites was spectacular. the buckwheat tea could have acted as a savory palate cleanser, but it had way too much citrus in it. Because this followed the unappetizing buttermilk dashi, it started to border on too much sour. And our meal began to feel unbalanced COBIA - Again, big bowl of sour ramen broth, overpowered everything else. Foie gras was a nice single bite. Squash tempura provided the crunch and sweetness that we were craving, but it just wasn't enough. After 3 straight courses with a very prevalent acidity profile, we really began to wonder why we came here. This list of courses was very poorly thought out by the Exec Chef. Dry-Aged Duck - this was by far the highlight of the meal. Duck was tender and perfectly cooked, all of the sides were delicious. This was a course to be shared across the table and this was probably the most perfect course of the evening. The main reason why they are not getting 1-star in my review is because this main was so well done. Which leads me to the question of, if you can balance the flavors of your main so perfectly, why were the previous 3 dishes such misses? Moroccan Tea - THIS is what was needed during the middle of the meal. The Jasmine and mint tea with honey was delightful and exactly the type of palate cleanser we needed mid-meal, not at the end of the meal. During this course, we did actually voice our complaints about the menu structure to the server. He said he would bring the comments back to the chef, who knows if he did, but when I mentioned this to a colleague, her response was. 'If you complained, at a place like that, for the price point, they should have comped you something or taken a portion off the price of your meal. That's what a Michelin star place should do if your meal is not perfect.' I tend to agree, but it's over now. Apple Tart - the funniest thing about this dessert is that after the 3 failed courses in the middle of the meal my brother in law goes, 'if this is the way the meal is going, they are going to serve us a sour apple pie for dessert'. This dish was also a miss. All the flavor profiles were taken to extremes which bordered on unpleasant. The miso butterscotch was cloyingly sweet, but somehow still salty. Felt over-flavored in both respects, which is just baffling to me. The rye and the caramelization on the apples tasted almost burnt, again bordering on unpleasant. Thanks for your time!!
Amazing wine pairing and service! The ambiance was so
Amazing wine pairing and service! The ambiance was so lovely with the view of the whole city.
What a truly amazing experience! We went to go and try this
What a truly amazing experience! We went to go and try this Michelin two star. This was definitely an experience of a lifetime and I can't wait to go back. All the dishes were Moroccan inspired sharing plates that are meant to be shared as a group. When you go up the elevator to the very top floor of this building with amazing views of New York City, you are greeted by a complimentary that is crafted to the individual! The mixologist that we had that night was very knowledgeable in all of the Lacore's and different flavors. He was very helpful in choosing a handcrafted cocktail for us. We were greeted by a server who let us go and sit on the terrace overlooking the city, while drinking our cocktails, and taking beautiful photos. After a few moments of taking in the views, we were next to our table of three. We sat down to a beautifully organized table decor for dinner. We were given menus and our server that night went over the items on the menu, describing them perfectly, and also pending us an amazing list of cocktails and wines and liquor. All of the dishes were all so very unique and flavorful. Each dish was Moroccan inspired. We loved the food and the presentation. It was such an amazing experience.
A Remarkable Culinary Experience.
Crowning 70 Pine Street, a landmark Art-Deco skyscraper in the Big Apple Financial District, is the Saga Restaurant. It has a lofty stature spanning the 62, 63, 64 & 66 floors with an exhilarating ambiance of peach & emerald tones, green marble tables and sculptured stone details.....a handsome environment. The restaurant presents luxury cuisine compositions although their is no menu per say, Saga serves seasonal tasting that changes frequently and your appetite may be faced with delicacies like Moroccan influenced dry aged chicken or fois gras with custard.......I faced off with a Maine lobster with sea urchin.........super savory. I also could not pass up on the 'candy store' caddy of individually packaged bite sized dessert delights. A remarkable culinary experience.
Ordinary
Spectacular views of the city. High level service, ordinary dinner. Overall the price seems high to me. As well as the two Michelin stars
Amazing Food, Service Was Backed Up
Had it not been for the slow service, this would have been a 5. When you drop $1K on a meal, the service should be impeccable. First we waited 15 minutes past our reservation time to take the elevator to the 63rd floor where they made us a drink and let us sit on the outside patio for a bit, most likely because the table still wasn’t ready. Once seated, we waited another 10-15 minutes before ever being served a morsel of food. Each dish was at least a 15 minute wait after we’d finished the dish before it. The waiter did apologize for the slow service. Now for the food. It was out of this world amazing! We would recommend and would go back just for the food. I’m hoping that they just had an off night with service as many places in the restaurant industry are still feeling the pain of trying to find good staff. I can’t comment on the view, because it was an overcast, low-ceiling night….can’t blame them for that part.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” 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.
