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...

I LOVED THIS PLACE 11/2/2005

THE MOST FUN RESTAURANT I HAVE EVER BEEN TOO! I LOVED THE SHOWS. THE FRANKENSTEIN SHOW WAS THE BEST. I REALLY ENJOYED THE SHOWS PUT ON BY THE ACTORS. THE FOOD PORTIONS ARE REALLY LARGE. THE BEST PLACE TO BRING KIDS OR ANY FRIENDS WHO WANT TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. YOU MUST GO. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT! Pros: THE SHOWS, THE ACTORS, THE DECORATION Cons: LONG WAIT more

Fun Time For the FAMILY 10/14/2005

What a great time for the family. All the entertainment and actors walking up to the tables deressed as Zany characters really makes this place special. My kids explored all the floors in this four floor mansion on sixth avenue. The food was suprisingly very good and the chocolate fudge cake for desset was superb! The prices are on the expensive side, but we expected the prices to be a little higher in midtown manhattan. It was worth the time and money. The server was very hospitable and actually took my kids around and explained all the different puppets. If you are looking for fun while you eat I reccomend you must see this place. Pros: theme,decor, live entertainment, Friendly Staff Cons: very busy more

wasn't what i expected... 9/24/2005

This restaurant wasn't what I expected at all. First you have to pay an entertainment fee to go inside. The entertainment fee was clearly not worth it. They had cheesy special effects with animatronics that looked like they were going to fall apart. The lighting is very dark and makes you sleepy. Who wants strobe lights flashing while they're eating?!? Be prepared to pay $3 for a glass of soda that doesn't come with any refills unless you purchase the souvenier glass. The food was horrible. Our appetizers were room temperature and the chicken in the salad was way over cooked. As with any themed restaurant in NYC you're basically paying for the name and entertainment. more

Great Service 8/15/2005

I visited jekyll and Hyde Club for the second time over the past 5 years. Well I had more fun than the first time. The service was friendly and really took the time to make my family feel special. The restaurant was very busy but the server sat down with us talked, gave us directions to central park and Radio city. They added several new puppets and characters from the last time I visited. Order the nachos appetizer it was enough for 4 people and the Ribeye steak was delicious. Try chocolate fude cake with vanilla ice cream for dessert. Pros: Friendly service, good food, fun entertainment Cons: 45 minute wait more

Have you cooked a T-Bone in your lifetime? 8/8/2005

This was my wife's 40th birthday. I used to go here 7 years ago when my travels brought me to NY. Great place when you are young. Ordered the T-Bone the way I liked it, medium rare. It came to me well done. I asked to have a new one, and the adventure began. I got bad service, and the night went down hill from there when the waiter told me the chef said it was not possible to cook this steak as I requested, because of the two different cuts. I should have him over for dinner. He would leave happy. Pros: Scenery, Atmosphere Cons: Not a good value, Poor service, Poor service more

What a fun place! 7/8/2005

We visited the restaurant yesterday and had a terrific time. It was fun and very entertaining. Something different which is great. The food was good with very large portions. The service was good as well. We definitely recommend this place. We will go back again! Pros: Decor, Service Cons: Can't think of one more

Fun place but poor food 7/4/2005

Amazing how many people wrote favorable reviews about the food.. it is cafeteria quality at best! And certainly not cheap either. The atmosphere is certainly fun with entertainment and all kinds of haunted house like decorations, but it still doesn't quite justify paying $20 for a t.v. dinner quality entree. Service was a little annoying as they try to push all of the souvenir stuff on you and don't pay much attention to anything else. Must be fun for kids at least as they tend not care as much about food quality. Pros: Atmosphere, Entertainment, Decor Cons: Mediorcre food, poor service more

This is a great place to go and visit. 5/31/2005

The atmosphere was great, the eccentric characters who interacted with me and my kids were very entertaining and funny. The food was delicious, and the fact that they let you roam around all 4 floors--each with a different theme-- allowed my kids to have a great time. They're still talking about it a month later! This is a must see place. Pros: entertainment, the service, location more

Unique and Great Food 5/29/2005

We heard so much about thhe Jekyll and Hyde Club we had to have dinner their last night before going to the theatre with our kids. The decor and artifacts on each floor really makes this palce so unique. The food was excellent. The Salmon was fresh and the ribeye steak was scrumptous. The kids really enjoyed their food and the value on the kids menu is good. If you are taking your family out to dinner and want some excitement added to your experience this is the place to go. I can't wait to go back with the rest of my family. Pros: Friendly Service, great food, Kids menu Cons: wait more

not worth the price of admission 5/26/2005

The service at J&H is wretched and pretentious. The food is from the freezer and not fresh. The atmosphere is cute, but the poorly-trained children running under your legs while you eat ruins even the best efforts. We have been here several times at the request of the kids and, each time, leave fealing frustrated and ripped off. more

MY FAMILY HAD SO MUCH FUN! 5/20/2005

This is the best place to go with a family. Kids love it and it has interesting and sophistocated entertainment that adults appreciate too! I really enjoyed my dinner and the kids were very happy with the pizza and the chicken fingers. I would certainly go back again with or with out the kids. Pros: shows, food, staff more

A must see 5/19/2005

My family and I went to Jekyll and Hyde restaurant Yesterday and had a blast. It was my brothers 19th birthday. The service and food were great. The large statue ""Zeus"" sang Happy B-day to my brother. The club members who come around and talk to the tables were interesting and had all us laughing hysterically. This is one of the most unique restaurants we have ever seen. Check out the fourth floor when you visit.The clown came to life and scared the pants off my brother! Pros: Decor, Entertainment, Food Cons: wait more

Very good experience 5/18/2005

My family and I visited the restaurant for the very first time on May 14th. We had always heard about the place, but never made the trip. It was actuallly fun. It was a lot different from other themed restaurants. I actually prefer this over Planet Hollywood and Hard Rock. There was so much going on around us. The food wasn't bad as well. I had the ribs, which were huge. We definitely recommend this place, especially if you've never tried it before. Pros: Decor, Portions Cons: Dimly Lit more

FANTASTIC 5/18/2005

This is the most amazing place I have ever been. The food was great, the service was great, but the best thing was interior decoration and the entertainment. They had incredible special effects and all these characters walking around like an English Butler and cooky inventors. We had the best time. The things on the walls come to life and talk to you. You never know what is going to happen next. This is something you have to do when you come to the city. Pros: great entertainment, unique atmosphere, friendly service Cons: wait to get in more

MISS TAKE 1/16/2005

The REAL Horror here is the fact that they charge you a $2.50 entertainment fee PER person AND that they DO NOT accept VISA or MASTERCARD!! They don't tell you about the cc problem till you are just about to order. I had the rib eye, which tasted like a well grilled shoe by the way. And I had to borrow cash from a friend. If not being able to pay with YOUR OWN card and people coming up to you and whimpering and screaming is your thing, this is the place for you. Pros: decor Cons: , acting, payment policies more

This is the most unique restaurant ever. I had such a blast. The entertainment was wonderful and exciting. The staff was attentive and the food and drinks were delicious for a reasonable price. I will be back often. There is no other restaurant like it and it was worth it. Pros: Great beverages, Reasonable Price, Entertaining Atmosphe more

Worst Ever 10/12/2004

This was the worst restaurant experience ever. Had to wait 1 hour for a table to have cold, undercooked, over-priced food. Did not have half of the drinks listed on the menu available. Horrible and rude staff. The ""entertainment"" made it even more deplorable. They over charged us on our bill and were not apologetic AT ALL. Thank you for ruining my friends birthday. How do you stay in business? more

Rude Service 7/13/2004

I went to Jekyll & Hyde for my friend's birthday. We tried making reservations beforehand, but since we only had a party of ten, we were told reservations were not needed and that we should go on ahead to the restaurant. We arrived there at 8 pm, and the doorman informed us that the restaurant was closed, which didn't make sense since the restaurant does not close till 12 am. He refused to explain, and then finally said lamely that they suddenly had a party show up at the restaurant. He refused to service us, and when I asked to speak to the manager, he said, ""No!"" He wouldn't even go inside the restaurant to ask for the manager. I had planned to go specifically to that restaurant for my friend's birthday. I will never try to go here again!!!! Cons: , Rude more

Very Nice Place 5/1/2004

I'm quite impressed. Sure, there was a wait to get into the place, but it was worth it. If a place in this city doesn't have a wait on a weekend then it can't be all that good. There were little shows at the bar as well while we waited. The service was not bad at all. We had a very nice and entertaining waitress who was very much on top of our table. The entertainment was very good too. It seems to be a great place to bring kids, but still we had a great time without them. Although the prices is a bit on the high, you do get big portions for it. I definitely recommend this place for birthdays and just for fun when you are tired of the same old restaurants. There isn't a place like it in this city. Pros: entertainment, service more
