The food itself tasted good, but subpar service… slow, completely forgot one of our orders so had to wait another 25mins for a salad? Then my other friend paid for an add-on to his avocado toast yet he wasn’t given it… Also sounded like glasses and plates were being dropped and broken like every 10 minutes. The waiters were kind but I wouldn’t come back. Sad because the food that actually came out correctly was quite nice and the atmosphere was cute.

A tiny but gorgeous restaurant inside the Gotham hotel. Reservation is a must for lunch or dinner. The restaurant is decorated with shelves of books to really create the reading room vibe. Accompanied by a lovely bar. From the menu we loved pretty all the things. Mussels were really good, soaked in citrus juice. Skirt steak was tender and juicy. The G&H burger was solid. At the end we got a complimentary dessert for celebration our occasion at the restaurant. The chocolate mousse cake was so good. Service was superb, constantly being checked on and kept us updated on the upcoming items. The restaurant did take a while to get our entree, understandably so since the restaurant got full right when it opened at noon. So not a recommended place to grab lunch quickly. But am excellent restaurant to chill, dine and have some wonderful conversations in company of lots of books.

Stayed at The Gotham Hotel and used The Reading Room for my breakfast before I headed into the hustle and bustle of New York. The food was amazing and the service was outstanding. Will definitely be returning when I come back to New York later this year
