    Our first time here did not disappoint 🤩 Thankfully because we had made a reservation, the server was kind enough to relocate us to have a table with a Union Square/Rotunda view,. Which completely elevated our experience. We ordered a creamy lobster bisque that came in a vey aesthetic bowl. The tuna tartare was very fresh & the kampachi crudo special, was a great recommendation from our server Charlie. We shared the Seafood fettuccini that exceeded my expectations & the Dungeness crab melt was full of savory richness in every bite. We cannot wait to come back again & try more items from the menu!

    This was the first time we've been back since the last remake. It has been a decades long family tradition to visit during the holiday season. We were not disappointed. The drinks were good and the tuna crudo was especially delicious.

    Our Christmas Day Brunch experience was fantastic. I have some food allergies so I had emailed The Post Room Team in advance and received a prompt, reassuring reply from the chef, Jose, who had clearly given my questions thoughtful and thorough consideration. On the day, I received personal service from Jose who was committed to avoiding issues with cross-contamination. All the food we ate was delicious and the dining room team could not have been more welcoming or accommodating. We were so well looked after, it was a faultless festive experience. We only went out for our Christmas meal this year because I had recent hand surgery and can’t cook much. However, our experience at The Post Room was so delightful, I am considering doing it again next year. Thank you to Jose and the whole team.

    The owner came to the table asking if we were new to the restaurant. He asked about any dietary issues, and we needed gluten free. He chose our dishes and they were fabulous! Absolutely delicious nad varied in nature and flavor. We had a wonderful and satisfying experience.

    Lunch after a matinee is one of our Holiday traditions- this year it was just perfect. The restaurant was packed with diners waiting for tables lined up at the bar, so thank goodness we had a reservation (on a Monday at 3:00PM- who knew?). Once past that minor inconvenience, everything was absolutely wonderful. We shared the Tortelloni appetizer and even though I am an accomplished Italian home cook, it was the best we have ever had. Then we shared the Jack LaLane salad - partly because we grew up with him on TV and the nostalgia was undeniable- and it was perfect. It had a respectable amount of seafood and avocado and was very large. My husband said his Manhatten was excellent. We left vowing to come back soon and often.
