Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in TriBeCa

This is an excellent restaurant in the theater district. The managers and staff should be applauded as well as the NY Fire dept. when a pipe burst over the door creating a massive waterfall during our dinner service in January. They all sprung into action and had the damage under control in a very short period of time. The food was delicious and the concern from management and staff for us was exceptional. Thank you for a memorable evening.

Excellent pre-theatre dinner. Great food and attentive service (Sara G.). Perfect pacing, never felt rushed, and easily arrived at the theatre on time.

I took advantage of Restaurant Week to return to L'Express, a familiar, friendly and reliable hangout a half block from my office. I've been going there since it opened thirty years ago, almost coinciding with my firm's first 10-year lease. It's no long a 24/7 dive. Covid took care of that. But what has not changed is the familial warm standard that it has remained in the neighborhood: a place where you can go for an excellent burger, an omelette, a nice piece of fish almost anytime of the day or night.

Dining at La Grande Boucherie was an unforgettable experience. I visited with friends, and everything from the ambiance to the service was exceptional. We started with the tartare and octopus, both beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. For the main course, I had the steak, which was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. To finish, we shared a variety of desserts, each one exquisite and a perfect ending to the meal. Our server, Nikola, was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. A remarkable restaurant I can’t wait to return to!

Whilst staying at the Hotel Edison thought we would try out this restaurant. Fantastic welcome, service outstanding and the choice of food overall was great. The style of the restaurant was lovely … it had atmosphere that some places lacked. Highly recommended
