NYC Times Square Restaurant is back – and food is as good as downtown fashion points

The most surprising miracle Times Square has been for the most surprising miracle since the first New Year’s Ball fell in 1907.

View – a rolling restaurant, infamous terrible on top of the Marriott Marquis Hotel (1535 Broadway) – has good food for the first time since it opened in 1985.

Make it very good food. The Danny Meyer Union’s hospitality group has taken over the previously beloved dinner that was closed five years ago. Meyer is one of the most delightful restorers in the city, but I still couldn’t believe that he could bring a menu to the end. Do I dream? Lead me.

Continuous chef Marjorie Meek-Bladley, who was previously the corporate executive chef for Stephen Starr Empire and was recently advised in the white corner shop in the city center, knows what tourists and business travelers want-an accessible formation, Steakhouse-And-American Bistro with something forever

But, she also knows how to meet sophisticated local brave enough to travel to Times Square – and up to the 47th floor.

A friend fixed with beef tartar announced lean, hand-shattered, hand-shattered (24)-by-side-seated repetitions -classically seasoned with onions, capers, worcestershire sauce and mustard-the best he has ever had. I was quick to agree, to get her many layers with her tastes and feel seductive of the mouth.

Silken Tuna Carpaccio (26 dollars), decorated with augula and rarely sometimes to finger lime, rivaled anything similar to Meyer’s Union Square Cafe or Gramercy Tavern, while a cake cake cute, with blue jackets-a starting name $ 34. Remoulade.

The waiter cleverly removed the letter from Black Bass in papillotes ($ 32) to discover a generous, saffron, past cut, so wet as it was strong. I had to ask myelf: Was I really in appearance, where I used to have very old and bad fish for an alley cat?

The main cut of beautiful “or jus” ($ 68) once came with a lot of jus, as well as with horseradish cream. I ordered that “rare average” and lightly gave the knife and all, but they melted into the tongue.

The only pasta of the chicona-spaghetti chitarra in the tomato sauce with generous lobster pieces ($ 42) -Hit all the necessary Italian-American notes.

Burger ($ 32), with his celibacy, healthy, juicy Pat La Frieda Patty, is a charming return to an era when many places have inexplicably gone twin, well dried, dried, dried. Came with cooler chips than my Latree party could end.

Esserspels – Price only $ 10 – Keep the entertainment to roll. Butterscotch Pudding with Taffee sauce and Graham Cracker Crumble is candy for adults. A wedge of the chocolate devil cake cake standing almost like the skyscrapers around and enjoyed heavenly.

But even though our charming waiter said, “Enjoy the look, the target things”, the views beyond are not as tasty as food.

The edition and signs of the TSX hotel and office towers with masters lit like candy cane are poppers eye-when you can see them. Circular dining platform, with glass walls rotates (very slowly) inside a square box, with glass wall; Double panels reflect and refract a single red exit sign in a dozen.

David Rockwell’s redesign tries to create a dinner club, with mirrors, blue draperies and a good piano. But, it cannot mask what is still a circle mainly without elegance with tables and stands located around the elevators and kitchen.

It is not easy to reach the 47th floor restaurant. You need to negotiate a maze of moving stairs, elevators and circular stairs to achieve the appearance. The third floor where clients “check” are particularly terrible-a gloomy, pale gap like a center of congresses without a convention.

The best feature is the 48th Lounge on the 48th floor: a long, colorful bar inspired by the city horizon, just as heated and romantic as the dining room is not. The star of the short horse menu d’Ouvres is a plate of wagyu beef pigs in white with Pimento cheese.

Liquor service of view is an example. If the cocktails well made $ 22 are not for you, the summer list is reasonable price with more than two dozen bottles for under $ 100. I had an easy beaujolais to drink, well -structured, Georges Descrombs 2023. It cost everyone $ 78 and was suitable for almost everything in the menu.

Thank you, Danny. Maybe there is hope for Times Square after all.
