The Smith is a casual American brasserie with four upbeat locations in New York City: The Smith East Village, The Smith Midtown, The Smith Lincoln Square, and The Smith NoMad, as well as locations in DC and Chicago. We care about every meal and every moment. The menu features bistro classics, seasonal fare, and craft cocktails. Walk in the door and you’re in for a great time. Whether it’s date night, drinks on the town, a big birthday bash, a working lunch, a boozy brunch, or an I-don’t-want-to-cook-tonight night, we’ve got you covered.

    We were visiting from out of state and had a friend from Europe visiting with us. We had prompt service, our server was attentive and everyone was friendly, the entrees were delicious. The option for the smaller portions on some items is appreciated. The portion size ordered was just right for everyone as we don’t like overeating or wasting food. The Smith has become one of our favorite restaurants to start our day when visiting. The bathrooms are very clean and well stocked with necessities. The photo booth is the best and has become tradition to visit prior to departing!

    My family and I arrived at 5:25 for a 5:30 reservation. We didn’t get our table till after 5:50. We placed our order fairly quickly since we’ve already waited close to 30 minutes for our table and it took them over 40 minutes to get the food to us. We didn’t start eating till about 6:40. This was not good especially when you have small kids. We didn’t even get an apology from the manager. It was a slap in the face and it felt like the smith couldn’t be bothered by us.

    Seated 30 minutes after reservation time after being told “10 more minutes” and then “2 more minutes” a few times. Very small portions and extremely over salted. Salmon tartare had gone bad.
