Reviews for Liberty Bistro in New York, NY
A rude and uptight French experience. Stopped by for some drinks at 2pm. Waiter rolled her eyes and said, “Oh, you’re not... going to order any food?” No. It’s 2pm, I already ate lunch. Even though I wasn’t hungry, I ordered desert to make herfeel better. She said, “Just one desert for two people?” Yes. What is going on with all this questioning? When the desertwas finished she quickly cleared the table and asked if we wanted the check. Felt more like she insisted we take the check. Isaid, sure. Paid the bills and even before us leaving she came back to check the bill. I’m assuming to see how much I tipped.I still tipped 20% because I’m way too nice. Outside of this experience, it is indeed a beautiful restaurant. Unfortunatelyit’s not one I would recommend my friends to come. to. Read more
The visual aesthetics of this restaurant is nothing short of breath taking with views. When entering my large party (30) where... seated, shorty after they started our drink orders. We where told in advance the bar was backed up an with such a large party Iexpected it to be a wait. When my drink arrived it’s was so beautiful and taste amazing until I noticed the hair (clearly notmines) on the inside of my glass. My server apologized an ordered me another one. While waiting I ventured to the commode wherethey’re where two single stalls with a 6 min wait line at them. My new drink later arrived, now the food I will say even witha large party the wait was over an hour for our apps to arrive. I started with the TUNA TARTARE 5 starts!!! Best I’ve had onthe east coast! With just the right amount of flavor It surly left me wanting more. My main dish LOBSTER ROLL on Toasted Bunw/Petite Salad. The Lobster roll was a very nice size an full of delicious lobster, salad dressing on side salad had an amazingflavor component. I ended with the LEMON TART, pretty large an overly sweet, I’m not a sweets fan so if you have a sweet tooththis tart is surly for you. I also had a bite of my friends pasta, very underwhelming after tasting everything else, it trulylacked flavor and was not very hot, sadly to say I was so happy I did not order it. Overall (minus hair in my cocktail and waittime for meal and commode line) this was such a great dinner! With stunning views. If you are looking for a dining experiencethis is definitely the place to go. Read more
One of the best places for beautiful and delicious cocktails. Lovee the French toast for weekend brunch, the rotisserie chicken... is alright -_- but the desserts (opera and macaroons) are amazing!! I love this place in general. The view of jersey city areunbeatable . Read more
Had dinner last Friday and “mediocre” is a stretch. The vibe/decor/view was lovely, but the food and service were really... terrible. The cheese plate was fine, but the salad was pathetic and the mussels were inedible. They looked amazing, but thetaste was AWFUL. My husband looked and me and asked “do these taste like hamburger grease or is it just me?” I only saw oneserver on the whole right side of the restaurant, and the server was clearly overloaded with tables. She was super sweet butoverall I was really disappointed in the experience. Read more

Very nice restaurant with the view of river and jersey city!! If the weather is good you can sit outside and enjoy the view.... They have good selection of wines and spirits. Food is also delicious and the dessert too is amazing. A must visit if you wantto enjoy good view with a drink or coffee. Staff is nice and very professional. Read more
Nice French bistro in financial district area with the beautiful view. Place has busy energy, but you still can have good... conversation with your companions. We had a lobster roll served with fresh salad which was very yummy and filling. Mostly, Iwill recommend that place for lunch or brunch as they didn’t have wide selection of food on the menu Read more
We sat there in the evening, in a group. The service was great - they kept checking in on us, making sure we always had tap... water and bread. There was a live DJ there, which was good, but the volume was a bit too loud for us to have a conversation. Thecharcuterie platter was great. The burger was tasty but burnt on the outside. Prices are rather high :) Read more
