Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Orchard Townhouse delights with its charming ambiance, "amazing" food, and "excellent" service. Highlights include the standout spicy crab spaghetti and a beautifully balanced house salad. Guests appreciate the "peaceful" outdoor patio and attentive staff, though some note slow kitchen service. Overall, a delightful neighborhood gem worth visiting.

    Pricey, okay food. Service seemed distracted. Nice low-key atmosphere. One and done, I guess.

    I have been wanting to try Orchard Townhouse as I live in the Chelsea neighborhood -- it did not disappoint. The ambience is charming - quaint yet stylish; really loved the decor. It was easy to lose track of time on a peaceful, beautiful Saturday fall afternoon. I was a bit let down in the breaded chicken atop my Caesar salad - it felt like re-heated frozen chicken strips. I would get the burger or one of the sandwiches next time. Recommend this spot!

    The management and staff at The Orchard were so compassionate. Instead of a birthday celebration, we actually had a wake, with the last-minute addition of two extra people. Not only did The Orchard Maitre 'D accommodate us, but the wait staff did an excellent job of attending to our various and complex orders, and circumstances.

    Thank you so kindly for the warm review. I'm very happy we were able to make such a difficult time a seamless experience so you only had to focus on your friends and family. I have shared this with our team. Warm wishes, Natalie
