9th Street Market--CLOSED

I have visited this cute restaurant for brunch several times despite the fact that I live on the other side of town. The brunch is fabulous and worth the wait in the cold on the weekend! However, this weekend I brought a friend from out of town to dinner at the restaurant. The service at this time is mediocre and the food was terrible. Despite the fact that my guest and I had the majority of our plates full of food when we were told the waiter we were done, he ignored that fact and didn't bother to ask if anything was wrong. Very disappointing because I love them for brunch!!! Way too expensive for the dinner dining experience especially given the mediocrity of hte dinner. Pros: Ambiance, Fireplace Cons: Dinner Food, Service, Dinner Prices more

Tucked away on 9th street is a little restaurant aptly named 9th Street Market. The menu: gourmet meets down home cooking. The result: a most refined yee-haw. For dessert, have the cobbler--it will knock your shoes off. It's a tiny place and fills up quickly, so make reservations. And don't ask for substitutions on the menu after 8:30pm. They will laugh at you. Pros: good wine @ fair cost, unique menu items, fresh fruit cobbler Cons: rude phone attendant, very tiny place, no menu subs more

My friends and I only come here for brunch, and we always have so much fun. The food is phenomenal! The French toast comes loaded with luscious fruit, and the eggs with black beans and salsa on a hard tortilla are wonderful. Pros: amazing food, great service, great ambience Cons: usually have to wait, for tables more

This was a very cute little nook of a restaurant...great for dates! Quiet, beautiful flowers everywhere, the wines by the glass were good, food was tasty (I had a monkfish risotto which was delightful). All and all, a great find! more

This a now top on my list. If you are looking for a romantic getaway or a place to take the parents or a refuge from the typical trendy & loud resturants which crowd the East Village then this is it! The food is tasty, inventive, and has a pure farm fresh flavor as if you were eating at a B&B somewhere in New England. Did I mention the fireplace and the sweet sublte smell of wood burning. This place is a gem! I do suggest you go early so, you can get the full effect. Pros: romantic, good service, relaxing more

I came on a recommendation from a friend. This place is just terrific for my anniversary with my girlfriend. The food was pretty good, I recommend the crabcakes. The maple creme brulee was good but I've had better. The fireplace was a nice touch, and the patrons were all lounging and chatting but it wasn't noisy. I had a terrific experience here with this ambience. Couples only. Pros: Romantic, Fireplace!, Quiet Cons: Slow kitchen, Small space more

A charming tiny restaurant with delicious food! Came here for brunch and everything ordered was fantastic. But we were especially impressed by the attentive service. The wait for brunch is kinda long (what can you say? The place is popular). But the waiter noticed how long we were waiting and let our four-person party sit at a two-person table and order drinks and our meal while we waited. Very generous for a tiny space. I'm definitely going back for seconds! Pros: Excellent Food, Attentive Service, Great Environment more

Only good things to say about this place. Everything was wonderful, and we were impressed by the server's ability to handle the entire room so efficiently. The place is tiny, so try to make a reservation. Had the blackened catfish, which was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. Very reasonable prices, large portions. Don't miss out on the fruit crisps. more
