Best Fine Dining Restaurants in East Village

I chose RH Guesthouse, Dining Room to celebrate what would have been my Mother’s 80th birthday. Unfortunately, she died in February. I wanted to spend it as she would have with good food and drinks. The service was impeccable. The menu is elegant and abbreviated, but the selections are more than sufficient. I will definitely return. It may possibly be my annual go-to to celebrate the fabulous woman who was my Mom!

Food was out of this world, ambiance stellar, and of course the experience was next level. On top of that, our waiter Joseph was OUTSTANDING. I’ve traveled the world for food and wine - this place, plus Joseph’s stewardship captaining the experience, was actually magical So, I’d recommend it :)

A wonderful family dinner in New York City, with so many tasty family favorites: hummus, light-as-air homemade pita and a mixed grill that brought back memories of gatherings with our extended Lebanese/Italian family. The mekanek was exceptional and just sized properly for three of us to enjoy a piece. Save room for dessert, as the baklava is divine! Ask for the magnanimous Mert to be your server if possible — you’ll be in for a treat!

Jst a fantastic evening. We had not been in so long. You easily fall into trap of thinking such places are indeed tourist traps. But this is the real deal: lovely decor, excellent food (and sizable portions), and attentive staff. And post dinner some wonderful jazz in the bar area. Cannot think of a better way to spend an anniversary in our own city!

VERY SPECIAL dinner treat for our first visit to NYC. Food was spectacular. The sommelier was well able to assist us find just the right wine.
