My wife and I went to Water's Edge for a romantic dinner. We had a very nice time. The waiter was attentive, the food was delicious and the views of the city were great. I'd definitely go back again.

Not only do I work in the neighborhood but i am also friends with the owner. my wife had read the great reviews of the restaurant and wanted to try it. We were extremely pleased with everything. The skirt steak was delicious, flawlessly done, the potatoes were "real", My wife?s drink was really good (not watered down) and the price was reasonable. the restaurant was quiet and romantic. We really had a pleasant time out.

I actually took the time to make an account to give Masso the recognition it deserves. The best appetizers and pizza! Thin crusted and delicious! Not to mention the entrees I've tried, the unbelievable chicken parm, the delicious hamburger on an english muffin, the skirt steak, and the fish! All excellent and wellpriced.
The service was immaculate. They were nice waitresses who talked to me as a friend, offered advice on the menu, and the wine list. The owner, a woman who was helping sit, was friendly to all tables who requested her as far as I could see, I was sure to thank her the first time and every time I've been since. The place itself is cozy for a date, and a nice bar for a drink with friends. Any big game is usually on, or good modern instrumental that fits the style.
I absolutely recommend for all in or coming to NYC!!
Pros: Food, Service, Style
Cons: Size

Tournesol offers everything a bistro diner could want in an unlikely location (atop the Vernon Street number 7 subway station in LOC across the screen from an abandoned ruined industrial hulk. What can you expect?: fine (and large selection of) wine by the glass or bottle (I tried white burgundy, my dining companion drank merlot), excellent appetizers (I tried the foie gras which was wonderful, we shared a winter salad and we also tried the onion soup ... bubbly in a crock, rich and bracing, just like one would expect at an upscale restaurant in France or maybe the Quebec countryside), too many entrees to choose from (the dorado was fine, the lamb shank was even better, the steak frites at a nearby table looked 9 out of 10), and the desert was equally good (bread pudding in a thick pool of creme d'anglais ... I wanted to try the oeufs a la neige as well, but after all the above ... I was done). Remarkable food. Excellent ambiance. The restaurant was nearly full, but we were seated right away. And perhaps best of all, fair prices. I will try again (maybe I should phone ahead, cause I know it will be steak frites followed by those oeufs a la neige).
Need I say more?
Pros: Food, ambiance, price
Cons: None

Bella Via is by far one of my favorite restaurants. I have been dining at Bella Via since they opened and their food is as delicious as when they first opened! The food is always served fresh & pretty quick. Some times people may mistake that for being rushed... but their staff is very attentive to their customers, making sure they are well waited on. I have taken many of my friends, co-workers and family there and they all have the same reaction... "it was wonderful"... not only the entrees, but the appetizers, salads, drinks, and the ambiance!

I love water taxi beach. It is always a go- to for great food and fun. The point of the strict security is that it is on NYC property and it is likely that Harry's had to have thorough security to get the contract. Just throw on a sundress and flip flops and chill. The food is worth the trip and the crowd is alwys fun and friendly. The D.Js are always fantastic.
Pros: great burgers, bbq., snagria, music, people, and views
Cons: none

ok so i know it is called the crab house... and ive tried the crabs and they are great.. so is the lobster, and the shrimp and the salmon.. and anything else fishy you can think of... i frequent there a lot since i live nearby...
yesterday we had lunch there and we had hamburgers.. oh my god.. this was the best most juiciest hamburger i have ever had.. .and the fries were great..
This place is one of a kind... do you know that quote... "one mans junk is another mans treasure"... thats what the walls look like... all antiquey stuff that is soo much fun too look at. when you walk in they have a boat ( literally) filled with peanuts that you can grab a bowl and a beer and hang out til your table is ready.. then you sit and have some good drinks... realllly good drinks... and then the food comes.. and its all just really good. great staff, great parking ( valet), and just a good time.. even live music on saturday night.
Pros: best food
Cons: little bit of a wait..
