★ 5The food and the service were the highlights of our dining experience. We were seated immediately and our server gave us water and took our order right away. Carlos was very friendly and made sure that we were satisfied with everything. All the staff worked together well and we felt cared for. We ordered the beet salad and the Bronzino dish. We especially enjoyed the celeriac. We topped our dinner off with the Brownie Sunday, churros and cappuccino! Overall I would highly recommend this hidden gem in the theater district.

★ 5I went to Blue Dog NYC for an early dinner, and the experience was surprisingly warm and satisfying. One of the first things people ask is “Is Blue Dog good for dinner or mainly brunch?” —and honestly, their dinner options were just as solid as their daytime menu. The ambience was cozy and inviting, with a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to unwind.
Another common question is “Do you need reservations?” —and while they take walk-ins, having a reservation definitely helps during busy hours. The service was attentive and friendly, with staff who checked in often and made sure everything was running smoothly.
People also ask “How long does the food take?” —and in my experience, the dishes came out quickly and consistently. The food itself was flavorful, fresh, and well-prepared, especially the classic comfort dishes they’re known for. “Are the portions good?” —yes, generous without being overwhelming.
Another big FAQ is “Is it good for groups?” —it works, but it’s especially comfortable for small parties or casual meals. Overall, Blue Dog delivered great service, delicious food, a welcoming vibe, and a smooth early-dinner experience. -

★ 4Went for brunch - short 5m wait on a Saturday at noon, not bad at all.
One of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve ever had. Fries were good. Espresso martinis 10/10.
The burger was good but the onions were too thick I ended up taking most off which left it dry it needed more sauce or something but the meat itself was 10/10 I would just try a different one.
The space is SMALL. Like small even for Manhattan. People were constantly bumping into our chairs or asking to scoot by. It’s like one big communal table in the middle of the room. Only downside. -

★ 5We gave our breakfast a 10/10. The Raspberry Pancakes and S'more Pancakes were to die for! The crab cakes were also delicious but in our opinion could have used a nice dipping sauce. Great vibrant atmosphere, with friendly and attentive staff. Overall, a great way to start the day (once you can find the entrance… we had to walk around a few times). Highly recommend.

★ 5Beautiful cozy restaurant close to Times Square. We got brunch and the food was excellent, honestly best eggs Benedict’s I’ve ever had. Don’t skip the pancakes. We got the cinnamon apple ones and they didn’t disappoint. The salted caramel coffee was great too. Highly recommend it!
