Freds Madison at Barneys New York

Slow and aloof waiter, borderline rude. Water glasses sat empty and waited 15min for check. Great support staff and food.

Very nice experience! My request for a specific table was honored and I appreciate that!

Service was horrible, one of the items ordered was a hamburger well done and when my guest took a bite it was so bloody that the blood ran right into the bun, I asked for it to go back and when they returned it was the same exact hamburger, nothing had changed. Drinks were never refilled. The waiter was never in site. I asked for an iced tea and the sugar and etc. were not brought out and I had to wait and wait for the waiter to come around the area of our table so that I could ask for some. I’ve had lunch and dinner in other department store restaurants but this one by far was the worst!

Fred’s always delivers as a great meeting place for lunch or dinner. Lunch is bustling and service can be spotty, so overlook it for excellent entree salads, pastas, grilled fish and a nice selection of wines by the glass. It’s a combination of shoppers and local business people. My favorite lynch is either Mark’s salad or the chicken salad (no onion for me). Dinner is much more subdued. Do have the grilled branzino.

My friend and I had a delightful lunch in a truly lively spot. Still, we could talk easily without shouting. Our food choices were excellent and the ambience and service were very nice. A great place to meet up with friends!

Food was delicious, waitress was great!

The male host tried to seat us next to the worker’s service station when the restaurant was almost empty. We had a reservation. He tried seating other guests there too. It Was offensive to us and other guests. We watched as multiple guests wouldn’t sit at the worst table in the restaurant . Luckily, our server was great. She saved the evening from being a disaster.

Terrible service,super long,noisy
Waiters totally absents,
We were obliged to cancel our mealszas it was too long

Not the best meal at Fred’s. Shoved in a corner. Super loud and marginal.

Always have a good time at Fred’s. Have annual birthday lunch with my son.

Food delicious as always. Service wasn’t great. Our salad was not divided in two even though we told waiter we were sharing. It was divided after we asked. Eventually asked for a pitcher of water because refills were not coming anytime soon. We were seated on time.

Service was slightly off from the usual pace. But it was busy.

Celebrating my niece getting engaged.

We visit NY a few times a year. This is our favorite lunch spot. We love the Estelle's homemade chicken noodle soup!

Fred's is one of my favorite restaurants in New York. I can't wait to go back.

Wonderful place. Unfortunately we sat at the bar where one patron decided to have an extensive and loud cell phone conversation while she drank a glass of wine. Would ask that you consider a cell phone policy or a courtesy note on the menu.
Otherwise, always a great respite from shopping and a convenient and yummy place to frequent.

Perfect meal.High quality food cooked just the way we wanted the meal to taste

The location is convenient so I have been going there for year. However, I think the restaurant could use a refurbish. It feels a bit run down and the food is just ok...used to be better. Overall, not bad but not special either.

The food is consistently delicious, this is truly a favorite of mine.

The food was good and priced about what is to be expected given the location (a room with a view). We were among the first to be seated for lunch and both the hostess and waiter seemed to be just going through the motions. It was not a welcoming feeling. Other staff members had the right level of energy and effort. My takeaway -- whole point of going to Fred's is to see and been scene. Excellent place to people watch if that's your thing.

Terrible service. Wrong order. Uncooked eggs

Always great!

Always an amazing dining experience and such a nice place for lunch.

Dinner out with my young granddaughters.

A wonderful place for grown ups to eat and talk without having to raise our voices.

Granddaughter’s dinner

Our favorite place for Saturday lunch!

Nice ambience. Good food. Very good service. But very overpriced.

Food is between meh and bad. Service is poor. The prices are high. The amazing issue with this restaurant is the number of people who eat here given the quality and prices of the food. I regret not reading the latest reviews on yelp before making reservations.

Love Fred’s

A favorite lunch spot.

Great food and people watching

Dinner is a rather dull environment, the vibrancy of lunch is gone. Menu choices too expensive for the experience.

Comfort food at its best!

Medium rare burger served over well
Attempted to get glass of wine still waiting
Rude staff dreadful food

A bit expensive for the food quality. Tuna tartar had twice more vinegar than expected. Fried calamari were really good - that's why I gave 3 stars, not 2. Noisy, with no decor accents.

Great place for special brunch occasions! Beautiful restaurant with great ambiance!

Very noisy. Hard to carry on a conversation. Tables too close together.

Would definitely recommend

A favorite spot! Incredible energy, delicious food. The quality of service has slipped a bit. Servers aren’t listening and fail to be attentive.
