Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Smith - Lincoln Square is a vibrant and bustling spot, ideal for pre-theater dining near Lincoln Center. Patrons praise its "great food and exceptional service," with consistently well-prepared dishes. While the lively atmosphere can be noisy, it's part of the charm. Outdoor seating offers a quieter alternative.

    We decided to pop in here after watching the Nutcracker. I made a reservation as we walked out for 30 minutes in the future... but we arrived a few minutes before and they seated us promptly. Likely because we had two kids with us, we were seated in the back, which was fine with us. You just walk through a small service area--but such is the charm of NYC. If this would bother you--be sure to specify a preference in your booking. The food was really nice. The Brussels sprouts were in my top three ever (and I love Brussels!) so don't miss these if you enjoy Brussels. We also had the house chips, which were amazing. The Cesar salad was yummy--but a bit small. The kids salmon was great--with all the skin removed. Our server was friendly and attentive. The drinks were good as well. All in all a really solid choice!

    The food and service were highlights of our early dinner over a busy holiday weekend. Looking forward to another visit in the near future.

    A 40 minute wait beyond our reservation time was bit extreme. The free potato chips for the delay was an effort, though.

    I like The Smith overall but this experience was not great because of the lack of transparency not because of the service. All people I interacted with were nice. Before making the reservation I reviewed the website. There was not any information indicating that the brunch menu would be used for Black Friday; it was assumed that they would be using the normal menu since it was not a weekend. There are a good selection of gluten free items on their regular menus… very few options in brunch menu. I wouldn’t have made the reservation if it menu option information was clearly stated on the website. Since I didn’t find anything on the menu that I could or wanted to eat, we left. Again the last time I ate there everything was great.
