 La Creperie Submitted by: Josh on Aug 11th 2005 Just enjoyed a great meal. Food was delicious, and the servce was great. If you need anything just ask Mr. Gross, the owner, who was more then happy to help with anything.
 The Purple Pear Submitted by: Herman Sternberg on Aug 9th 2005 Absolutely awesome! The greatest combination one can hope for. Magnificent food in a beautiful setting in the world's premier heimishe town. The Fetuccini Alfredo and Bass dishes we ordered were delightful. We even saved money by cancelling dessert as the portions were king sized. Highly recommended. A definite winner!

 Island Grill Submitted by: Jack on Aug 9th 2005 Horrible Experience!!
The food was lousy. The waiters bickered at each other. Very poor coordination between the staff. My card was not returned to me after having it swiped. I forgot about it only to find out the next day that the manager gave my card to "someone" (???) Close to $5,000 was charged to my acount!!! I would never go to Island Grill. And if you don't mind being robbed, you can go for untasty and certainly unIsraeli food at island grill!
 Reply #1 submitted by: WAS THIS REPORTED? on Nov 27th 2008 have you heard anything since?(about island grill
Reply #2 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Nov 27th 2008 New owners took over the place a few years ago and I'm happy to report that the restaurant is terrific.
Abigael's on Broadway Submitted by: Susan on Aug 8th 2005 We had lunch last week @ Abigael's. The hostess was very gracious. The staff was very knowledgable with the menu items. We truly enjoyed our 1st expeience to Abigael's. We plan on returning each time we visit New York.
 Reply #1 submitted by: Alison on Aug 10th 2005 Thanks for taking the time to tell us how much you enjoyed Abigael's and our staff. I've told the hostess that she made a good impression on you! We look forward to having you dine with us again during your next visit to New York.

 Chosen Village Submitted by: jessica albert on Aug 6th 2005 the food is great but the money is big
 La Creperie Submitted by: BARBARA GLATTER on Aug 5th 2005 My Daughter and I went to the Creperie for the 2nd time Aug. 3. I think it was better than the first time if that's possible. My daughter ordered the Ceasar salad with the salmon and said both were the best she ever had. I ordered the mahi mahi with the eggplant and figured how good can fish be in a crepe restaurant. Well was I wrong. It was unbelievable! I only wish the restaurant was closer to me. The staff could not do enough for the patron. A perfect choice for the nine days. I look forward to eating there and hosting parties there for many years to come. Keep up the good work!
 Tevere and Va Bene on the Upper Eastside... Submitted by: Michelle on Aug 5th 2005 My mother is a Moroccan Jew and my father a Sicilian non-Jew. I recently began keeping kosher and there are plenty of great Middle Eastern restaurants and American style/eclectic steakhouses but these 2 restaurants are the only ones that are authentic Italian, and even better than non kosher Italian restaurants I've been to in the past. The service, atmosphere and food are spectacular and the prices are actually reasonable for that kind of quality, and in comparison to many other kosher restaurants in NYC. Tevere is meat and Va Bene is dairy, since it's dairy they don't have to subsitute their butter, milk and cream with anything else and everything is so delicious. If you love Italian food and are accustomed to authentic homemade stuff with very fresh ingredients, you'll appereciate these 2 restaurants! Why aren't they on this website except in a small window on the side???

Shanghai Diamond Garden Submitted by: N. Newman on Aug 4th 2005 Living next to Los Angeles I never get a chance to check out all of the restaurants because I can't stop myself from going back to Shanghai. Their food service is a pleasure. I am impressed every time I return. A definite winner.
 La Creperie Submitted by: Dana Schwartz on Aug 4th 2005 All 15 of my friends and I had a great time at La Creperie! It is such a cute restaurant with great food! A great place to go for any occasion.
 Prime Grill Submitted by: Steven Livingston on Aug 4th 2005 Visited from Uk last week --odered starter and entree --after long wait both came together.We refused to accept this -waiter assured us we would get freshly cooked entree--when we finished starter --he brought entree--which was cold and obviously the original. We complained --waitor said " what can i do about it?" This was totally unacceptable and spoiled our evening .For 2 courses and 1 drink the bill came to over $150--I think this is Prime Rip-off!
 Cocktail Party Birthday at La Creperie Submitted by: Mayah on Aug 2nd 2005 My husband's birthday party was a huge success thanks to La Creperie! The food was incredibly delicious, the decor is stylish, and the service was excellent. Rabbi Gross and Vicky Landeta spent several hours planning every detail so that the 25 person cocktail party on a Saturday night would be just right. They invented beautiful hors devours that impressed our guests and the most delicious crepes, all at great value. To accommodate our cocktail party theme, they provided a bartender (we provided the alcohol). All of our guests were very impressed. I highly recommend La Creperie for a personal, delicious and classy birthday party!
 Kinor David Submitted by: Dianne Cohen on Aug 2nd 2005 Three strikes and Kinor David is OUT! Inedible, gristly chicken breast, overcooked pasta, poor service and to top it off, bugs crawling in the water pitcher on our third (and last!) try.

 Daughters Birthday Party at La Creperie Submitted by: Lisa R. on Aug 2nd 2005 Just had a wonderful afternoon celebrating our daughters special bithday. The staff (especially Rabbi Gross and Vicky) did a wonderful job at making our party everything and more that we hoped for. Because I had to plan everything from a different State, I was concerned as to how it would all turn out...no need for concern...it is a lovely restaurant, we were set up for about 35 people in the front of the restaurant....the food was really delicious. They put together a lovely menu for us we all had such nice choices....service was very accomodating, presentation of food was lovely and the taste was yummy. We recommend this restaurant on the upper west side for a lovely meal and a special simcha!
 Skewers Steakhouse Submitted by: skm1017 on Aug 2nd 2005 skewers steah house is the best glatt kosher restaurant. I really enjoyed the food and the people who work there are very nice. I recommend this place for all.
 Abigael's on Broadway Submitted by: Iris on Jul 29th 2005 What an unbelievable dining experience! Service oustanding! Food amazing! As far as we are concerned, this is the best Kosher Restaurant in NYC.
 Reply #1 submitted by: Alison on Aug 7th 2005 Thanks for the compliments! We're thrilled that you enjoyed yourself so much at Abigael's.
Reply #2 submitted by: Jonathan on Nov 9th 2006 was recently at a meeting for lunch at 21 club and was ordered a kosher meal from Abigale's. The steak that I got was raw to the point that one of my co-workers said I can see the muscle fibers on that. What a horrible place!
Need a fancy kosher restaurant Submitted by: lisa on Jul 29th 2005 I am looking for a fancy kosher resturant in either new york city or queens, ny
 Reply #1 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Jul 29th 2005 We'll start with Queens, because the city has plenty. If your looking for fancy dairy, Habustan, on Union Turnpike is your best choice. For meat, Skewers Steakhouse also on Union Turnpike, is a great restaurant with very nice ambiance. Colbeh on Main Street is also pretty fancy.
For Manhattan, there's enough restaurants to choose from, so if you're looking for "fancy"- here are some suggestions:
Colbeh on 39th & 6th, has a very upscale look, as does Abigael's, Broadway & 38th and Mike's Bistro on 72nd & Broadway. Not to mention Le Marais, Haikara Grill, Village Crown, ec. Like I said Manhattan has plenty of fancy restaurants. For dairy- Gusto Va Mare, La Creperie (new) and My Most Favorite Dessert are also excellent choices.
Good luck.
Reply #2 submitted by: Akira Ohiso on Aug 2nd 2005 In New York City, there is Mike's Bistro on West 72nd Street (fleishig) and Talia's Steak House on Columbus and 92nd Street. Both are very good.
Reply #3 submitted by: sarah levi on Aug 7th 2005 I will really recommend you to try out "Grill de Paris"restaurant in Brooklyn,on Kings Highway,between E9 & 10 St(I dont know the exact number,but u wont miss it).Its a great place with excellent food(meat steaks & fish)with reasonable prices,you gonna love it! It has a gourgeous design as well.

Ranoosh Long Branch Submitted by: Joe H on Jul 28th 2005 I used to go to Ranoosh from time to time a few years ago; the food was always good and the service was always efficient yet very friendly.
I hadn't had a chance to go there since it went kosher, but I heard a few weeks ago (July 05) that it had started opening at lunch time. I went for lunch with a friend. The place is looking shabby, untidy and run down now. We walked in and nobody was at the desk. We waited. After a couple of minutes he two men who we passed sitting outside the front strolled in; they were the waiters. The place was empty yet some of the tables hadn't been cleared.
We stayed for lunch nonetheless. The food was still good (great baba ganouj), but the dessert menu had lost all the mediterranean specialties which used to be so good with strong black coffee (such as baklava) to be replaced with banal junk such as tollhouse pie! Still, as I said, the main food was great, so we tried it again a couple of weeks later.
This time one of the waiters proved to be clearly incompetent and downright rude. While we were ordering, the waiter's cell phone went off twice; each time he broke off to answer what was clearly a social call! We clearly ordered mint tea, but were brought black tea. When I asked again for mint tea I was told that there wasn't any although we weren't told that when we first ordered it. The waiters disappeared for long periods and service was generally slow. I asked three times for the music - which was so loud that we couldn't converse comfortably - to be turned down (we were the only diners in that particular room). The first time it was turned down momentarily. The second time, the waiter acknowledged me but did nothing. The third time the waiter refused, telling us that the diners outside wouldn't be able to hear the music. My friend and I sat waiting for the check, not even bothering to try to talk over the music.
As I said, the food was still good, despite the pared-down menu, but the attitude of the staff is appalling; the first time I've ever been to a restaurant and not tipped.
 Reply #1 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Jul 29th 2005 Sorry to hear that. I guess that waiter wasn't serving Mr. Teaman, he left a post on May 31st with a favorable review. I'll let the owners know though.

Island Grill Submitted by: Tova Berger on Jul 25th 2005 I'm trying to print out the coupon for a 20% to 50% off but it doesn't show on the screen.
I'm planing to come there at around 5:45 this evening. It will be our first time. Our friends are bringing us. I hope I will be able to eat acording to my food plan which is, meat ( or fish) without any sugar additives or flour ( carbohaidrates) , cooked, fried or grilled vegetables, and a huge salad, dressing ( no sugar)on the side.
I'm looking forwards to this new experience.
thank you.
Tova Berger

 Bar Muda Restaurant, Brooklyn? Submitted by: Barbara K. on Jul 22nd 2005 Does anyone have a review of the new Bar Muda restaurant, on Coney Island Avenue, and Avenue M, in Brooklyn?
Thanks!
 Reply #1 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on Jul 22nd 2005 As far as I know they haven't opened yet. They will be a dairy restaurant and the building looks impressive.
Reply #2 submitted by: Anonymous on Jul 23rd 2005 I may be wrong, but I drove by last week, and it looked like it was open.
Reply #3 submitted by: Barbara K. on Jul 27th 2005 Decided to check this place out for myself. Located on Coney Island Avenue, between Chesnut, and Avenue M, it opened about one week ago, with (as far as I'm aware) no fanfare, pre-publicity, or Grand Opening sign out front. Just noticed it in passing.
As a former poster said, Bar Muda has a dairy menu of fish, pasta, pizza, soups, salads, and desserts.
The restaurant and bar are very attractive. There weren't that many tables on the ground floor level where we were seated. There is an upper level which we were told would be for larger parties, but I don't think that this level was being used yet.
The hostess was pleasant, and accomodating. The sliced herbed bread, which was accompanied by both an olive oil mixture, and margarine (so you have a choice), was delicious, and fresh.
I ordered the grilled salmon filet, but was hesitant about the Lo-Mein which was listed as the side dish that accompanied it. It turned out that the salmon was excellent, and the Lo-Mein - not your typical Chinese version - was flavored very nicely with seasoning and herbs. Both were delicious. My husband enjoyed the 3 (or 4?) cheese individual pizza pie that he ordered. Acquaintances of ours, at a table of 4 nearby, said that they had each ordered something different, and were all pleased with their choices.
There was a nice selection of desserts on the menu, plus an assortment of cakes and pies.
( The cakes and pies were apparently not baked in house, as I've seen some of the same ones at other nice restaurants.) I ordered the tri-color mousse cake, which was rich and very good; and my husband had the pecan pie (which to our taste didn't have enough of the sweet gooey filling in relation to the abundance of nuts).
The service at our table was just so so, as our waiter was pleasant, but seemed very inexperienced. We observed other waiters at tables nearby, who seemed more capable.
I don't think it's fair to make a final judgment on the service yet, since the place is so new.
I would definitely recommend giving Bar Muda a try. It seems to have already been discovered, despite the lack of hype - as the place was full, and there were several groups waiting to be seated.
Estihana Manhattan Submitted by: Susan on Jul 22nd 2005 Excellent food, but service left something to be desired. My husband went there for lunch during a slow time, and was kept waiting for everything, including the menu. We thought maybe it was an "off" day, but on our last night in town we went there for dinner. All went smoothly until it came time to pay the check. I wanted to use up some traveller's cheques and the waiter said it was ok. Only after I had filled them out (completly, as is the standard procedure for these), did others working there, including the manager, say that my writing out the place name invalidated them. (Fortunately, my bank at home had no problem cashing them, and was puzzled by why writing in the place name was so bad). No apologies or anything else were offered. Again, great food, but fortunately there are many other places to get kosher sushi.
 Reply #1 submitted by: L.A. on Sep 7th 2005 Lately the service in Esti Hana hasn't been so good. It used to be my favorite place but now my dinners there aren't as pleasant becuase of their horrible service.
