Diner Reviews
  • "Walking into ABC Cucina the place was packed and the mood was energetic and vibrant. Our waiter was very friendly and ready to answer any of our questions. We chose a few dishes from the small plates and each was a wonderful tasting experience. Each of the dishes was as our waiter had described and the small portions were what we expected and wanted. That allowed us to get more dishes than if they had been bigger. While we got a simple Tanqeray and tonic for drinks we did look at the drinks menu and they had a number of interesting choices which we saw on the tables around us. We ordered dessert and both of ours were outstanding. The place was packed when we got there and ended up spending over an hour and a half there. We would go again."

  • "Guac was good, some of the free fresh bread was good. Fish tacos overwhelmed by mayo, huevos were good but really salty; accompanying salsa flavorless."

  • "Delicious brunch. The brunch menu combines the regular menu with brunch items and all were delicious. Don't miss the tacos and the french toast!"

  • "Our table was not bused when second course came over. We asked the runner to bus the table and he refused: 'I'll call your waiter' (totally unprofessional). I needed to go and ask for silverware after our food was sitting at the table for five minutes. The same buser who brought the bottle of sparkling water, tried to pour tap water twice, even when the big bottle of sparkling water was at the table. Buser came three times to ask 'are you done?' while clearly we were still eating: completely unapropriate question and pushy service. Birthday cake came to the table while I was in the bathroom and my husband was at the table by himself. Surprise was ruined! C'mon, it is Jean George's restaurant! Something good to say: Food is fenomenal!"

  • "We booked lunch for four at ABC Cocina out of convenience: we had to be at ABC Home early afternoon. The meal was quite spectacular (though pricey), even for four jaded New York foodies! We ordered eight small plates and the jamon twice, given its surprisingly dry and robust flavor. The summer squash salad was bright and texturally great, the crab and corn fritters were crunchy on the outside and delicate on the inside, and the octopus was tender and full of flavor. We got talked into the chicken and rice, and were so glad to have done it, especially combined with the house pepper sauce; the crispy skin made the dish, providing great contrast to such a homey, comforting dish. We will be eating there again, despite the prices!"

  • "Reasonable and delicious lunch. Really good vibe for lunch (perhaps better than ABC kitchen just south). Probably not so much for dinner (for its weird location and its more casual vibe). Indeed, it's just barely cool (i.e., it could very easily exist as a midtown expense account destination) but it's cool enough, and a good place for a bite with a friend or probably to bring a cool client."

  • "We have been looking forward to visiting ABC Cocina for some time now, being from Australia. It did not disappoint. The decor was just beautiful, as were the cocktails and meals. Service was good but nothing outstanding. Overall we had a lovely evening and it lived up to our expectations."

  • "As usual, the food was delectable. My San Francisco visitors and self appointed food critics, gave ABC Cocina a 5 star rating as well. We dined outside as the Super Moon was making its way behind the buildings. Much quieter outside and no yelling required."

  • "My boyfriend I went here to celebrate his new job promotion and had a lovely time! The food was great, with the sweet pea guacamole being particularly delicious! We had a few dishes to share which were all delicious. I would say that portions are small so bare that in mind if you are very hungry. Staff were very attentive and overall the experience was a delight!"
    Dined on 7/11/2014
  • "We had the mussels, shrimp, fish tacos, calamari and mushrooms. All too salty for my taste. The waitress was very friendly and accommodating."
    Dined on 7/11/2014
  • "Jean‑Georges: what more do you need to know? The consistency is still there, so the food is outstanding. fish tacos were wonderful, meat empanadas were excellent, even the pine nut accompaniments were worth the trip. A bit noisy for a quiet conversation among friends, but we knew the risks going in. Some confusion with the back-to-back sister restaurant ABC Kitchen - mind which street you enter from."

  • "I had brunch so I can't say that I had a chance to *really* experience the food portion of the menu but the brunch was really good and the combinations innovative. I had the French toast with mangos and a friend had the coconut lavender pancakes...SO delish. Our waiter was great too. He didn't rush our order though We were the last reservation before the kitchen closed for lunch and he was also really knowledgeable about the menu."

  • "The mango sangria was superb! Everything we had was super tasty - a little on the spicy side, but my hubby loved that. Atmosphere was romantic and sleek. It is a bit pricey, so probably better for special occasions."

  • "I loved the mexican-inspired menu and found the portions generous--not always the case for a menu based on small plates. We lingered over a long lunch and were never rushed. Highly recommended."

  • "This would've been and should be an excellent review. Everything was great the food, the service, the space. But then when we ordered dessert the vanilla fritters came out and there was two hairs in the first fritter we picked up. The waitress took them away but the only response was "don't worry we won't charge you for dessert." Seriously? Is there a scenario where I would get charged? Given how expensive the resturant is and how gross it is to be served food with hairs in it we were disappointed by the response."

  • "Loved both of our waiters, who made stellar recommendations! The tapas dishes came out perfectly timed so that as we finished one dish, another appeared. Every dish was delicious and each member of my party had a different favorite. I highly recommend the mushroom tacos!"

    Dined on 7/1/2014
  • "Great choices of tapas perfect for sharing and getting a taste of everything. Do not miss the Guac. It can get noisy but it adds to the atmosphere I believe. Killer Margaritas...I asked for a standard with a float of Grand Marnier and it paired perfectly with the mushrooms, and fish."

  • "I went there for lunch. food was very good but a bit pricy for the type of food. I liked the decor there so will go back there when I go visit ABC carpet."

  • "order the shrimp w garlic sauce and the octopus. the chorizo was fine, but I wish we had more orders of octopus and shrimp instead! the shrimp tacos were also great. the place is a little pricey, but for the items i enjoyed, they were well worth it. i would go back armed with a good idea of what to order."

  • "ABC Cocina is not a low cost taco joint but the quality of the food justifies the price. My husband and I shared the spring pea guacamole, the shrimp with sizzling garlic & chili oil, the spring vegetables with rice and salsa verde and the Berkshire pork sandwich for brunch. They were all outstanding in moderate size portions (except the shrimp which was quite small). The guacamole is sublime with just the right amount of heat, served with crunchy warm housemade tortilla chips. We're still dreaming about the pork sandwich and would return for that dish alone. I tried a classic Margarita which was perfect for me. We were too full for dessert. The room is stunning in the same style as ABC Kitchen and service is friendly and efficient."

  • "Food was really good my group of 8 enjoyed how delicious everything was, but $29 for my main dish and all that came in it was a piece of fish.. I thought it was too expensive but tasty.. get ready to open up your wallet if you want to feel you ate enough.."

  • "I have eaten fish taco's from Miami to San Diego, and found the best at ABC Cocina in NYC. Service great, friendly. I love the Tapas idea at lunch because it keeps me from overeating, but the fish tacos were so good that I had to wrestle my wife and daughter for them, so we got a second order! They also make a habanero-mango sauce that I wanted to steal. I wish they sold that stuff in bottles! Great lunch. Highly recommend."

  • "Imaginative -- and very spicy -- versions of Spanish tapas. ABC Cocina feels totally trendy, and a meal there is fun. But the tastes, as original as they are, aren't so seductive that I'm eager to return. Good once, but twice?"
    Dined on 6/15/2014
  • "Interesting delicious combinations of ingredients as well as tasty, inventive drinks. A bit on the pricey side."

  • "Expected more from a Jean Georges restaurant. It is clearly only a decent restaurant that uses Jean Georges label so the prices are justified. Will probably not return."

  • "Everything was really delicious but you do pay a lot for tapas. Service was ok - but I still recommend this spot."

  • "If you are looking for a restaurant in a fun environment, sexy look, and lots of energy...this is the place. The food was very good, portions a little small for the price, but it is what it is. Service however, was not great, I am hoping it was a product of coming to eat at 10:15, but the restaurant takes resi's until 10:45. Service felt rushed and abusive, not what I was expecting from a restaurant that looks like it promotes hip and casual; you would think that was the case seeing the servers wore a t shirt and jeans! I would recommend for food, but not service."

  • "Tacos were sensational. Service excellent. I love eating there. It never fails. It's so good that I always go back for the same dishes."

  • "My friend and I were looking for mutually convenient location to have a nice lunch. The food was tasty not every plate hit the mark, the wine, service and ambience were all very good. I will be back"
