The Gander - Menu

The have a great Happy Hour program! Always have a good time when I go there and the staff is very friendly too!

While the food at this restaurant is fantastic, the wine list is unreasonably pricey, with most bottles costing over $100 rather than under. Additionally, the service was only average, so I cannot recommend this place and will not be returning.

Food was mediocre. Ordered fish of the day which we were informed was cod, our plates came out and were salmon. Cesar salads were drenched in dressing, we returned and was still on our bill. One guest ordered scallops, later informed no scallops, still on bill. View menu

Absolutely phenomenal. Food was out of this world we had the chef's tasting menu which was four courses and a great deal for the quality and amount of food. Chef even accommodated our dietary restrictions. Great wine list, hip ambience, great service. Run, don't walk here!

My husband and I grabbed an early dinner here one night before a party and thoroughly enjoyed the food. We particularly liked the scallops and the pork belly. We were not fans of the marinated olives. We also enjoyed the octopus, although it was tad salty. Our waiter was attentive, but not too so. Atmosphere was very enjoyable. We could talk to each other, but still felt like we were in a hip scene. Totally recommend it.

I bought a GILT deal for a Feast for 4. The special this evening was Chicken, but since I was unable to reserve 24h ahead, we were served a delicious Lasagna! Our fabulous feast started with fried calamari, caesar salad (best i've had in years), Lasagna (very tasty but a tad spicy), and delicious garlic bread!! it was truly a feast , we were stuffed to the gills. would HIGHLY recommend coming with friends. Our wait staff was patient, warm and gave great suggestions! Thanks for a great evening! View menu

My friends and I dined at The Pub on Saturday night of Memorial Day Weekend. Surprisingly, the restaurant was very quiet, reflecting the overall peacefulness of NYC that day. Nonetheless, we had a delightful and lively dinner experience. All aspects of our meal were excellent, with the standout being the delicious food. The simple decor and attentive service also added to the enjoyment of our evening. While there was a hint of disorganization, we felt that with more demand, The Pub has the potential to become more streamlined. We wish them success in the future.

Every now and then, we find ourselves in need of an early dinner spot before a theatre event. It can be challenging to find a downtown restaurant that offers good, straightforward fare at a fair price. The Gander perfectly met our needs for our 4:30-6PM dinner. Their discounted house wines were delicious, and we were drawn to the accessible bar menu. We ordered two caesar salads and two different pasta dishes. While the portions were on the smaller side for the prices, they were just right for us and the quality was exceptional. The modern and cozy ambiance, with walnut wood accents and warm lighting, added to the overall experience. The 80s playlist was a bit out of place, but personally, I...

I was a big Jesse Shenker fan. My husband and I both loved the food at Recette, where we dined on a number of occasions. The menu was creative, the presentation outstanding and the food delicious. I was disappointed when Recette closed, but had high hopes for The Gander. I had dinner there a number of months ago, and basically enjoyed it, without being wowed. Last Saturday night my husband and I dined there with a friend. We sat in the Bar Room. We ordered an array of dishes to share among the three of us. The charred cauliflower was delicious, but the anchovies that were to top the dish (which we mercifully asked to be served on the side were awful (and we are anchovy lovers . They were odd...
