    Great food, drink and service. The venue can get relatively loud and cramped on busy weekend nights so keep that in mind for what ambience you're going for.

    Magnificent food and service. Only downside was crammed into a small table and seating area. Would have been a perfect dinner had we thought to sit outside. I would recommend and will go back.

    To hit all highlights of what Blue Ribbon has to offer it will get expensive - but sooo worth it. Steak tartare- excellent; bone marrow with oxtail marmalade - divine, fried chicken - best anywhere… omg.

    Service, food and wine were good. However, the noise in the restaurant was horrendous, the tables were too close, and it was so dark that everyone was using the torch on their phones to read the menu. A mixed bag of experiences.

    Went to NYC with another couple, we are both celerbrating our 20th Wedding Anniversary and I made these reservations not really knowing what to expect. Lets just say Friday night the resturant was buzing with laughter and conversation, the lovely hostess greated us and seated us at our table. They had us at the hello and welcome to Blue Ribbon! Coctails selection was just what we needed after walking the High Line and getting rained on and we are not complaining! Happy to be out and traveling and enjoying some normality! Its all part of the amazing weekend we had. We started with Beef Marrow and Ox Tail Marmalade and French Onion soup, both brilliant in taste and did not disappoint. I shared the Fried Chicken as you get a lot on the plate. My husband had the steak, it was a very tastey Prime New York strip but he didn't realize he had to order some sides. Which was Ok as I had greens and mashed potatoes I could share. Our freinds both ordered Steak Tartare and it was a good portion to have as main dish. The lovely staff at Blue Ribbon treated us all to a lovely desert plate and just made us feel like one of the regulars. They really made it a fabulous evening and memorable for us all. Thanks to all the people behind the kitchen door and at the bar who worked so very hard to make it a special night and make the front end survers shine. Truly a lovely experience! Lorraine

    I have been wanting to visit this restaurant for years. We went to Cyrano in Brooklyn and ended up back in Manhattan around 11 pm. Blue Ribbon is open late and we went straight there with reservation. Not sure I have ever had a reservation for 11 pm. The host was standing smiling to greet us and even let me pick among the open tables. Luckily they were not packed when we arrived, but as the night wore on that changed. It is a medium size room and very cozy. Vibrant bar scene. We split the Caesar salad and had the fried chicken and salmon as main courses. The food was excellent. The wait staff were deft. The wine list is huge and there is something for every palate and wallet. I thoroughly enjoyed this visit and would certainly go back. One more thing: the clientele is eclectic and vibrant. I had a lot of fun people watching (politely).

    Excellent food. Service very slow at our night out, and noise level animated but then made understanding our waiter (masked and with a thick accent) hard to follow. A bit pricey but a fun night out. Maybe don’t go on a Saturday night? Bet it is more pleasant, on say, a TUESDAY.
