A girlfriend and I were going to a local performance and just happened to come across the Continental Mid-Town. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a friendly hostess who gladly seated us in a booth by the window. Our server was also very friendly. Miso soup can be ho-hum so I didn't expect much...but they served a generous portion of the BEST miso soup I've ever tasted. We also got the Tempura Tofu and the Crab & Asparagus Crepes which were also delicious. Topped it off with the Chocolate Truffles (a perfect little dessert) and Carrot Cake. Cool atmosphere, hip decor, fun people watching, great location, friendly service, awesome food that was timed very nicely. Reasonably priced for the overall high quality. Bravo. I will definitely go back and bring friends or family.

The Hawaii Five-O is the best martini in the world! I can't go to the Continental without getting a few of these. The food is excellent, the people are beautiful, and the roof deck is AWESOME. Good luck trying to find the bathrooms when you're drunk though...they're down a few flights of stairs (that is, if you're on the roof deck or the upstairs bar).

Love this place- I go 3-4 times a year and it never disappoints. the menu is fun and there is something for everyone. I enjoy the specialty cocktails- The Hawaii 5-0 is my fave - tastes just like pineapple lifesavers! My friends love the Mexico City, although I suspect it's pure tequila with a splash of something pink. The food is meant to be shared. A group of 4 of us usually orders 6-8 of the smaller plates. Some of the best include the cheese steak eggrolls, spicy tuna rolls, hummus,chicken skewers with peanut sauce, and the beet salad with goat cheese. The signature dish is their lobster mac & cheese, which isn't worth $18. Personally, I don't feel that any of their "entrees" are worth the price since they are the same size as the apps, and harder to share. Desserts at this place are PHENOMENAL- everything is made in-house including the ice cream. The key lime lollipops deserve an award- and the graham cracker ice cream that is served with them could be its own dessert, it's SO good. They don't take reservations- which for me is a plus since you can go there last minute and won't be turned away. You may have to wait a while, but finding a seat at one of the bars usually isn't too difficult- and they'll page you when your table is ready. Whenever I have out-of town guests, this is my go-to place. Pros: Fun food to share with friends Cons: small portions

I've been here twice and both times the food was excellent. My filet was grilled to perfection. The desserts were also fabulous! Go hungry!

The lunch and dinner you really canoot go wrong with. It is a restaurant great for groups because you can order a bunch of stuff and share. I'd say go for the shoestrong fries, calamari salad, lobster mac n' cheese, the hummus and pita, and even the sushi is good. I had the roasted chicken and swiss for lunch one time and it was great, and everyone else I was with loved their sandwiches. It is a unique dining experience as well.

The Continental Midtown is just about my favorite place in the city to hang out. They've a great drink menu (my fave is the "French 75"), and the atmosphere is awesome, between the different colors, lighting, hanging bamboo chairs, and what I love in the warmer weather; a rooftop deck! Just wish it were bigger, but you can't have everything. Pros: Drinks/Atmosphere/Stylish/Rooftop Deck Cons: Just wish the rooftop deck was bigger!

Although I do enjoy dinner at Continental Midtown, their brunch is by far the best thing they serve. The items on the menu are decadent and interesting. The morning cocktails are fresh and delicious. Surprisingly, they are accommodating to children at brunch, too- a great thing!!
