Best

Very entertaining! Especially for children. My 9 year old daughter really enjoyed. This place is described as "spooky"

Worst

I used to love this place, many years ago. It was fun, the food was OK, and the prices were decent. But it's declined sharply. After a long wait, you'll get shown to a table where...

Great entertainment & Excellent 11/4/2008

I was recommended to Jekyll & Hyde by a friend who said it was an excellent place to bring my children during the halloween season. My only regret is that I did it on Halloween day, as there was a line to get in and it took longer than usual for us to get our food. I believe we will go back at other times of the year as well. The actors were very convincing and the food was above average for the price range. I had a ribeye steak which was perfectly prepared, and my wife had a pasta dish with shrimp which she enjoyed as well. My oldest son had a Monster burger, and my youngest son had a kids chichen, and they both finished their plates, which is unusual as they are both hard to please. I would definately recommend Jekyll & Hyde for the holiday season, or any time of year. I understand they also book parties. Pros: food and atmosphere Cons: wait time on holiday and Saturdays, from what I understand more

Jekyll and Hyde not just a scary restaurant, Scary, gross food as well!!!! 11/4/2008

Terrible Service, Long Wait to be sat, Long wait for food as well, rude waitstaff, rude managers. more

Had a Great Time! Not just for kids!!! 11/3/2008

I took my wife and daughter here last week, thinking it was a kids destination. I was surprised to find that it was definitely for all ages. Not only did my daughter have a great time playing with the different characters that walked around the club, but her mother and I had a blast too. Even after we were through eating, we ""explored"" the rest of the club and found the arcades on the upper levels which kept my daughter occupied for another half hour. The food was great but the atmosphere is what we will be back for. Very few places can entertain the attention of a 7 year old and adults as well, but this place pulled it off nicely. Pros: Atmosphere, and service more

Dangerous to your Health!! 11/1/2008

19 members of staff took a party of 130 teenage students from the U.K. to the Jekyll and Hyde club a couple of nights ago. I can't actually recollect a meal I've had as bad as this one. They were charged over Pros: Ambience Cons: food, food and food!!! more

Avoid like the plague! 10/14/2008

BAD, BAD, BAD!!!!! Do not go!!! We took a party of 5, three adults, two 13 year old girls. After we ordered drinks at the bar, we were told they only accept American Express, cash and travelers checks. ""If that's a problem"" the bartender said, ""there's an ATM in the lobby."" Awful food, awful service, cheesey entertainment. Every table had a birthday party of 10 year olds that screamed at everything. The worst part of our three day trip to NY. Cons: Everything more

U can't be serious! 8/5/2008

This place is crazy. Do they think people are stupid? All of the postive comments are made by people that work there. They used the exact same comment for the both restaurants in the city. They need to get with it and overhaul that entire restaurant, including the staff. Pros: If u want to scare the hell out of your kids! Cons: Service, Food, Sanitation (nasty, leaky, stinky bathrooms) more

Second time I have been here! 7/29/2008

This is the second time I have been here with my kids now for my son's birthday! It is nice to know that I can bring my 16 year old daughter and my 11 year old son to the same place and they can enjoy themselves. I will be coming back! Pros: Kids loved it! more

Awful Awful Awful 7/29/2008

If the decor doesn't scare you, the stupid rules and the bill will. Three cheeseburgers and $65 later we walked away from this joint feeling robbed. Pros: While you wait forever for your food, you can look at the decor Cons: Service, value, ambiance more

WARNING!!! AVOID THIS PLACE!!! 7/15/2008

WARNING!!! AVOID THIS PLACE!!! This has to be the absolute worst restaurant that my boyfriend and I have ever gone to. I?m a New Yorker and I have visited various places in the city starting from the cheapest hole in the wall to the most well know and expensive. We always like to try something new, but my bank account and stomach could have gone without this ridiculously expensive and salty meal. Everyone at my table, including myself, had an upset stomach for two days afterwards. At first we thought that the entertainment is the reason that the prices are high but when we got the bill, there was a separate fee ($2.75 per person) for the entertainment. In terms of the entertainment, its corny -- whether for kids or adults. If you do decide to go here anyway, try to get seats on the first floor because that's where the corny action is taking place. This is basically a place for tourists who step foot into the city and see the corny monsters in front of the place and decide to go in. They don?t know any better and I don?t blame them for going there, because when I visit a different country I don?t know what?s good or not. But for us New Yorker's who have the opportunity of reading reviews, have the option to not go to such places. Cons: Disgusting food, way overpriced, annoying amateur entertainment. more

Worst Food and Experience in 3 years... 7/7/2008

My boyfriend and I, checked out this tourist spot mid-week. The 1st bit was ok-we got the intro, were taken to a table & given menus (1 had the wrong insert). Our server arrived and we told her we needed a few min to decide. Pros: Easy to find. Cons: Food, Service & Value. more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE 5/29/2008

I took a group of 78 to J & H Club. They cashed our $3,200 check for a 2-hour private party. No salads were ever received, 20% of guests did not receive food at all, the food that was finally delivered - after THREE HOURS of waiting and excuses - was horrible. Management will not offer any refund, even for the food that was never delivered. The will not return phone calls or email. Cons: Everything - service, food, (or lack of service and food) and nothing but excuses from managment and owners more

overpriced horrible food...dont go 4/6/2008

This place was advertised all over the place so me and my girlfriend wanted to check it out. IT WAS HORRIBLE! The food was among the worst I have ever had at a restaurant and the bill was MUCH MORE than I ever expected. Pros: The outside of the building looks cool and invitng Cons: the food, the prices, my stomach ache more

I visit Jekyll and Hyde twice a Year 4/4/2008

This is the most fun you can have in a restaurant. The food is good. We always enjoy the 10oz burger and a beer from there extensive beer menu. The kids always can't wait to visit each year. Be prepared because this is in the heart of Manhattan and prices are much higher there. We enjoy each visit more and more. If you are freaked out by loud noises and ghosts be prepared to have some fun. High energy place! Pros: fun atmosphere,good food, happy service Cons: nothing like this place anywhere else more

Disney in NYC 3/16/2007

Wow! We visited the Jekyll and Hyde Club last night and had the best time. The service was great! The entertainers acutally had my son and daughter join them on the stage for a weird version of the monster mash. The food we ordered was delicious. The place was very busy and the entire staff was fun and attentive. We will be back next time we are in the NYC. Pros: Restaurant Ambiance, Friendly Service Cons: Very busy, Little expensive more

AWFUL!!! 2/17/2007

I need to say....this restaurant was simply awful. Not only was the food extremely overpriced but the entire presentation was worse than any other theme restaurant I've ever seen (even Mars 2112). The menu is relatively bland and as I said expensive, considering its simplicity. The food and it is beyond ""not good"" - it is terrible. How can they mess up a salad (soaked in dressing), burn a hamburger and undercook chicken ? it was served raw! We were so ready to get out of there. In the end, we had waited forever for our bill and our awful server was rude and filthy. All in all, we were not impressed! Word of mouth needs to spread and tell people to stay away until they improve the food and the SERVICE. Don't go!!!!!!!!! My kids said it was the worst part of their visit to NYC. Pros: Ambience Cons: SERVICE more

Great guest service 2/3/2007

My family and I ate at Jekyll and Hyde Thursday evening and had the most friendly service we've encountered in the city. Food was good, portions huge, and entertainment was very interactive. My kids loved the visit. Wonderful beer list with over 100 selections. Can't wait to visit again next year! Pros: Friendly service and good food Cons: a little pricey more

STAY AWAY - - - -PLEASE!! 2/1/2007

Congratulation Jekyll & Hyde Club, this was absolutely the worst dining experience of my life. First of all the service was just awful. Unprofessional, filthy waiters and waitresses were unable to take a simple orders and could not carry plates without shoving their fingers in the food? Absolutely horrendous. As mentioned above, our waiter (from hell) had filthy uniform - his pants were covered with grease and ketchup stains? his body odor was also awful. Not a great first impression!! The food is fairly good, although my wife got a serving of cold and saggy waffle fries and again the servers were of no help to us and skillfully ignored us throughout this dreadful evening. When I finally thought that the evening was over, here comes a large rodent ? huge, fat, filthy rodent - sitting on a staircase in the middle of the dining room!! My wife took our children and ran out? I understand this is New York City, but still rodents in a restaurant are absolutely unacceptable. It was not over however!! After I got back to our hotel, I discovered that I paid a service charge (17%) on a top of a very generous (15%) tip. So, in the end I was also robbed!! I guess honesty and good service is something they do not know at this filthy restaurant. AVOID!! Pros: Entertainment... Cons: Everything else... more

Amazing Place 1/12/2007

Food was good service was friendly and the entertainment was fun. We visited the Jekyll and hyde downtown and enjoyed the atmosphere so much we made sure to visit their uptown location. We sat down up in the attic and the clown that came to life was creepy. Make sure you don't kiss the doll! She is alive! more

Cool entry but we left before ordering..Could not take the stink of the place... 1/5/2007

I have been here 3 years ago and enjoyed a few beers and some pizza. Pros: Spooky decor Cons: Spookier smell in the restaurant more

THE PERFECT PLACE FOR THE FAMILY AT HOLIDAY TIME! 12/28/2006

We brought the family to the Radio City Christmas Show and then to Jekyll and Hyde for dinner. It was a perfect way o end the day. This plae is no unique and fun with all kinds of crazy haracters walking around and little shows and things coming to life all over the place. They had a grat kids menu and the portions were large so our kids were very happy. My wife and I also enjoyed our food, but the best part is the unusual atmosphere, shows and decorations. It was like we wnent to anohter show after the show. I would go back again next time we go as a family into the city. Pros: Entertainment, atmosphere, large portions, friendly staff Cons: long lines more
