Reviews for The Smile in New York, NY
Great vibe, but couple things... The half chicken I ordered was far too citrus-y and dry. The potatoes were bomb though. When we... asked to break a $50 bill, we counted the cash getting ready to leave a tip and the server walked over seeing us count our cashand said "I think I gave you change for a $40 not 50" She was correct. This seemed shady as there is no such thing as a $40bill. Would she have admitted she didn't give us enough change if she didn't see us counting it? Gave me a bad taste in my mouthto go with the half chicken. 5* for vibe 2* for food Read more
The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The servers were very accommodating. Four of us ordered three appetizers and... two entrees and that was plenty. The mezzo plate had three kinds of hummus and plenty fresh veggies. Each dish seemed to comewith a different kind of bread. The salmon was perfectly cooked with a great glaze. The chicken was moist and flavorful. We ateoutside, at the bottom of the steps. There was fresh air and little street noise. Read more
Cute place! Sits slightly below the street which gives on such a cozy feeling. I had the squash and kale salad with added... chicken. It was soooooooo good! I for sure recommend giving it a try. Read more
This was a new discovery this morning when we just wanted something simple and good and we got what we wanted and so much more.... The outside is charming and rustic and the inside so cozy and inviting. My friend wanted the French toast and they were out(which means it’s probably amazing and we’ll have to be back for it) so he got the waffles and loved them. The waffletopping seems to change seasonally which is always good. My avocado toast looked so good I didn’t bother photographing it. Itwas amazing and prepared for me on gluten free toast. The regular toast is probably even better! Service was lovely andattentive but not too much. It was a perfect brunch. Will report back on the cocktails next time! Update: I’ve been back manytimes since this initial review but this time really needs an updated review. The outdoor seating is so nice, service is stillimpeccable and today we had the pleasure of being at Emilio’s table. He was very helpful and genuine and made our brunchmemorable. Also, the mezcal Paloma is incredible! Read more

Service was great and the food very rich in flavour. We ordered the vegetarian dish mix with quinoa and mushrooms. Portion was... good enough for two people to share. Read more
