Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Gramercy Park

Somewhere Nowhere did not disappoint. It was our second stop on a self guided Christmas Bar crawl. The igloo was fantastic, Zoya our server was excellent, she really made our time extra fun and went along with our bit of crazy. The igloo itself was well appointed with a heater, a faux fireplace, blankets and Alexa (where you can play your own music) it also came with a bottle of Veuve Cliquot. The small bites we ordered were so good we kept ordering more. Overall it was a 5 Star experience. I highly recommend this experience. The view is spectacular, the service and food outstanding, I hope you have as good as an experience that we did. My friends and I LOVED IT!!!

Our server Christine was fabulous! She was authentic and top of her game. The restaurant was beautiful, open, yet felt cozy, with the most comfortable leather chairs. Clearly, someone has attention to detail because I wanted to buy the chairs for my home. The restaurant had a commodity trading board or a train station type sign behind the bar that changed to different fun quotes, mostly about food. All of the quotes were great conversation continuers. I liked the one lamp in the middle of the bar with a purple lamp shade. The lighting, cheetah painting on the brick wall, and mirror were picture worthy. Grain & Cane served complimentary and delicious and dense banana nut bread. We ordered disco fries to share with the table. The fries, cheese curd, and gravy (on the bottom) were outstanding! We could have licked the plate! Three of us ordered eggs benedict. I added lobster to mine. The additional spinach was yummy; we usually find that on eggs - florentine. The salad was fresh. If I had room to eat it all, I would have asked for extra dressing on the side. I don't recall there being much dressing at all. The radishes were cut round and thinly, which made the salad look colorful. My hubby ordered the burger, which had too much pepper and was cooked medium rare and not medium. He didn't tell the server. I wondered why he was eating more of my meal? LOL. All four of us shared the chocolate cake. Ooo la la, it was delicious and decadent! We also shared a scoop each of lemon sorbet, chocolate fudge ice cream, and vanilla ice cream. The lemon sorbet with the chocolate cake paired wonderfully, as well as the chocolate fudge ice cream and lemon sorbet. I love that combination. My friend and hubby ordered an apple cider and lemonade drink with a dried blood orange and cinnamon garnish. They loved every sip! Our other friend ordered a pretty martini cocktail. She liked that, too. Our server Christine gladly took photos of us, too.

Loved how decked out the restaurant was for the holidays. Drinks were great, food was decent, but given how crowded it was, service wasn’t the best. We barely saw our servers while there and were only able to really order a drink and share a few apps because we waited so long for a server. Better for a bar experience instead of a sit down meal.

Food is consistently great and service is best in the City! No contest.

The dinner was delicious. The service was excellent! And the comedy was soooooo good!! Definitely will fo back!!
