Monkey BarAin't what it used to beThe room is special with red banquets and the famous mural. The menu is like so many others: chicken steak fish pasta. My salad was fresh crisp perfect. My fettuccine was tasty but it arrived warm, not hot. The waitress could not have been nicer.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMSuperb evening in a superSuperb evening in a super buzzy Manhattan restaurant.

Extremely accommodating,especially if you have booked in advance. Great ambiance.3/27/2013 12:00:00 AMClassic establishment with charmMonkey Bar is a classic NYC establishment. I experienced it for the first time on a Friday evening and I was taken by its charm. I walked through the crowded bar room towards the dining room where not a soul was seated. Perplexed, I made my way back to the bar to order a drink. Not liking any of the cocktails on the menu, I asked the bartender to make me a martini. It took some convincing, but I managed to persuade my dining companion to eat in the bar room instead of the desserted dining room. I ordered the Monkey Bar Burger, which was deliciously cooked to perfection. My dining companion ordered the Fettuccine Carbonara, which was divine once I was able to get my fork in for a bite. Only downside is the high prices.2/22/2013 12:00:00 AMService was very good, atmosphereService was very good, atmosphere good. people watching good. Food was ok. Lump crab in the crab cake would have been nice. Linen table cloths would be nice without the paper liner.2/16/2013 12:00:00 AMWorth a visit just to seeWorth a visit just to see the spectacular restoration of the original decor. It also helps that the food happens to be quite good and reasonably enough priced considering the setting.2/4/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of my new favorite restaurants.One of my new favorite restaurants.
