"Seriously great food here. Servers were delightful even with such an insane brunch rush. It's a shame I didn't get my servers name he was so lovely and kind with us!!! Otherwise I would shout him out on here. I ordered the corn pizza as corn and cheese a pretty popular asian food combo and I am usually attuned to the taste of my culture it did have some latin American flavor twist to it with the sauce which was some sort of aioli. I will say it was a tad bit greasy, but hey its a pizza. Italian and oil goes hand in hand. My other friend got the French toast with fantastic toppings with something alike to a blueberry preservative, some nutty seeds and a MASCARPONE. Will say the MASCARPONE I have tried on other french toasts before were a bit more whipped, light and fluffy. This one was a bit more thick and more of a regular cream cheese consistency. Not mad though, it balanced the flavors very well but my friend wasnt a huge fan. My other friend accompanying me ordered the Loco Moco. I also found it peculiar that there seems to be an Asian cuisine twist on this traditionally Latin dish. I tasted a bit of it and it mightve been the best thing on the table. It had a perfectly season sunny side up egg, a hamburger patty cooked about medium rare, over some rice. there was a bit of dehydrated fried onions as well as fresh cut green onions garnishing the egg, and topped off with a soy GLAZE! not soy sauce... a GLAZE! i need the recipe for this supposed glaze cuz it was amazing. I don't even rlly like red meats that much or eat them on the regular, so it was very shocking to me how the flavors were very balanced. Very cute seating, we sat indoors but there is a very nice patio and a bar too."

"Ruby’s is our “go to” place and love to introduce it to friends who have never been. We sat outside and although we think our waitress is always exceptional it was difficult for one server to handle all the tables. Service was les than perfect. Menu is inventive, loved the daily specials and food is delicious. Music was a bit too loud and when asked if it could be lowered our server looked like we were crazy. We just decided to talk louder. Indoor seating seemed packed, we had requested the patio. So happy Ruby’s made it thru Ida and, whenever asked, will highly recommend it. These small blips in the end are meaningless- it’s an important fixture in Rye and we need to keep it in town."

"It’s quite rare to experience both bad service and bad food at such a highly recommended restaurant, but this place checked both of those boxes for us. The service started cold and unwelcoming, and became almost openly hostile, to the point where we wondered if we had somehow offended the server. I don’t know, we are pretty nice people. Dude just had the most extremely unpleasant vibe. By the end of our meal I half expected him to invite me outside for a fist-to-cuffs. It was that bad. Maybe he was annoyed that we were half the age of the other diners, and didn’t order wine. The best dish we had, or rather the least offensive one, was an amazingly flavor-lacking pasta. I kept asking my wife to confirm the total lack of taste, thinking maybe I had long Covid symptoms. Also, the kitchen staff should probably Google “confit” before slapping it on a menu. It means low and slow, falling off the bone. The rabbit “confit” was not only not that, it was undercooked, and pinkish red near the bone. I never send things back, but I really can’t get past undercooked Bunny. As an apology they “comped” us the cheapest dessert on the menu, which kind of felt like an “f# you” to be honest. It was really bad. Eater.com did us dirty on this one."

"My wife and I have enjoyed dining at the Jolly Onion for many years. We generally dine on weekdays. The German inspired food is always good quality, well prepared.This review is not about the food- it is about the service or lack thereof. We were a party of six, four adults and five and three year old on a Sunday. One of the nice things about the Jolly Onion is that it is the kid friendly. The place was more than half full and very noisy, it has the acoustics of a gym. We were seated and waited about ten minutes for our server to take our drink order. The drinks came and our orders were taken. Approximately 30 minutes later no food and no server. Finally I was able to gain her attention. I asked the status of our order the server left and returned very apologetic saying their wifi was down that is how kitchen received orders. The server said she would put the in with a rush. 30 minutes later no food. Finally food. Server still very apologetic offers free desserts. Happily accepted. Meanwhile the children had reached the limit of good behavior and are racing around our table. We were grateful that by now the restaurant had mostly emptied. Ok dessert are now ordered two came out ten minutes later another then five minutes the last. Meanwhile our completed dishes were left on the table with no one to take them away. The busboys who delivered our orders seemed to lack any concern about removing them and ignored a request for ketchup. Below the body of this review is the question whether to recommend this restaurant the answer is yes with this caveat beware the service can be awful."

"Great beer selection. The cheeseburgers sliders are bomb! Soooo delicious! Season well, nice meat quality, and cooked perfectly. Mac and cheese was surprisingly good too! Spinach/mushroom empanadas were very good but not a fan of the sauce they bring. I just felt the green chimichurri sauce didn't go so well. I didn't like their version of chimichurri either way too much onion. I think a garlic sauce would have gone better maybe even a spicy garlic sauce. Chicken fingers were breaded so well but lacking flavor needed some salt but the chicken dipped in the sweet chili sauce that comes with it helps a lot with flavor. Mashed was good and so was the Guinness gravy. Cute spot!"

"We had the worst experience I’ve ever had at a restaurant, it was unbelievable. I brought my son and my elderly mother for lunch. We sat down and realized there was food stuck on two of the forks and the knives were sticky and blotchy with food or oil and my plate had some dried reddish food stuck on it. So we asked the waitress for new flatware and plates, she walked away did not say anything to us she just turned and walked away rudely. The busboy came by and took the dirty things and placed down new flatware that was also dirty! He said it went through the dishwasher. We didn’t feel comfortable staying so we got up and left. On the way out we spoke to the host behind the bar and told him what happened, he said “alright”. It was unbelievable no “I’m sorry” or anything! Then he said everything was washed through the dishwasher. I then said “that may be true but the flatware had dried food on it. Would you eat with that?” I couldn’t believe it! The service does not deserve a rating the people working are extremely rude! Will NOT go back."

"This was the best meal we had on our trip to the city. The atmosphere is great, and the attention to detail in the decor was a unique dining experience. The same attention to detail was evident in our meals, including the main dish but also the accompanying sides. If I had to nitpick one thing, it's that the service felt every so slightly rushed but I'll take that over slow any day. I'd highly recommend Trinity Place, hands down. There are so many restaurants to try in the city, but this is the one I will be returning to on our next trip"

"At the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Dominique’s wife, co owner. So welcoming she was, I requested the bar area being solo. Immediately I was greeted by Jonathan, who shared that he would be serving me this evening, and he, from the start to my leaving, was one of the most gracious and gentleman like waiter/bartender/servers I have ever met. I enjoyed sparkling water, Pellegrino – my favorite and a new Argentina Malbec, which is one of the best I’ve ever tasted. I ordered, after Jonathan gave me a detailed description of the special appetizers and special entrées, their special Burrata cheese appetizer and chicken liver pate (see photos). As both portions were quite large, I took the remainders to go, and really look forward to returning again soon. Jonathan‘s service was spectacular and what a phenomenal, relaxing, perfect solo evening, listening to upbeat, international music in the background. Strongly recommend!"

"Went with a small group on a Saturday eve. It was not overly crowded but definitely bustling.Great atmosphere although each time I’ve been it’s just SLIGHTLY too dark lighting wise unless you’re sat closer to the bar.The food was wonderful. The beef and Guinness with mashed potatoes and roasted veggies should not be missed, though it could do without the overly dry and in my plates case- inedible- puff “biscuit” I guess you’d call it? It was simply phyllo dough cut in a circle and baked. There was no substance to it and also did not taste like anything. Compared to the rest of the dish which is gorgeous and delicious, it felt like an unnecessary inclusion.I enjoyed the selection of mocktails on the menu, I ended up trying the Madame Lavender. It was just slightly too sweet for my taste but otherwise a nice addition to my meal.The service is absolutely top notch. Our server was attentive, our glasses were never empty, the table did not sit with dirty wares, and everyone was very kind. It definitely added to the experience.We have been patrons for years, and will definitely continue to enjoy the Hudson Hound and everything it has to offer.A tip: definitely order the side of roasted Brussel sprouts! They are absolutely delicious."
