Freds Madison at Barneys New York

Valentine’s day

Always exceeds your memory of your last visit!

A pleasure as always..never fails to deliver.

Was in the area and was able to make this same day reservation. Loved!

everything was absolutely amazing, from the view to the food and the staff. Highly recommend, always reliable and delicious!

Octopus and calamari appetizer was small but delicious. The wedge salad was not a wedge but a sloppy spill of strips of romaine and over powering blue cheese. The fish special was poorly plated, tasty but had the sauce just spilled on top. The bread offered was stale. Not worth the money with s many other options.

Great food great ambiance and wonderful service

What a lovely place to dine. The setting and the service are outstanding. The menu is varied and interesting but spicing could use a bit of an oomph. A $55.00 hamburger tops the price list. Interesting if a bit much. We keep coming back. The food is quite good. The location, the ambience superb.

First time to Fred's. Food was delicious. I will go back and recommend to friends.

Although we often dine at Fred’s, we’re always impressed with the great menu and lovely, professional staff. We bring friends, business associates and even our little 2 1/2 yr old granddaughter and always have great, fun dinners.

Thus is a hard one. An overpriced scene in a fun store with a good location. If you don’t mind the obscene prices for the food quality it’s fun people watching.

Usually terrific. Everything was off today. Under salted. Undercooked. Just not its usual. Even the service wasn’t as attentive as usual. Still a fan but I hope this isn’t a trend.

Great to be known in a neighborhood restaurant ... means a lot

Waitress disappeared for long stretches of time

Dinner at Fred's was always pleasant, far less noisy and busy than lunch. It seems however they lost their good chef. The salmon had an odd smell. A salad was garnished with concentric rings of, I guess, balsamic dressing. Wine was not good. What happened??

Service was outstanding! My friends enjoyed their meal. I however had the worst meal ever for $38. I eat crab cakes all over NYC. The crab cake was slimy, the coleslaw tasteless & the salad was not fresh. So just don't order this dish at Fred's!

Most enjoyable

Service was slow and not very attentive. We had to flag people down for water, check, etc.

Live this place! Great food, ambiance and food. Can never go wrong here..

They didn’t even have my reservation in their system. I had to prove it with a email confirmation and wait almost 15 minutes for a table, and I was on an extreme time crunch. Extremely disappointed.

Very successful birthday lunch ! Everything was perfect !

Such a perfect lunch spot with a delicious menu with something for everybody. Can't wait to go back.

Always the best!!

I attended Fred's on the 16th to celebrate my daughter's 24th birthday. I did mention on open table reservation to please acknowledge her birthday. They did not at all. I attended another restaurant on the 25th for my sons 26th and did the same, and again nothing Disappointing but delicious lunch.

Average. Taste, service, wine by the glass choices ... Everything very average!

Pasta was over cooked. Although the meatballs were very tasty.
Dregs in my glass of wine!

Next time I am sticking to the burger which is what I always eat here.

Also I always have lunch here, first time for dinner.

Back to lunch, back to the burger. Never dinner again.

Great food with very nice portion sizes. All the staff was very attentive and welcoming.

Fred’s is always the best for lunch!

Excellent, as always one of my favorite places

Everything was really good and it is s nice place to eat, see and be seen.

Perfect day in every way, and the lunch only added to it.

Overall great time

Very good food and service. Delicious salad - iceberg wedge with blue cheese - but I think the most I have ever paid for a salad anywhere.

always a good meal and great service.
reservations are always recommended.

The waitress was so unhappy with her job, not just with us but with everyone she waited on. We were afraid to ask for anything because we didn’t want to get her mad. She never came once to ask us if we need anything, we had to keep asking busboys and other waiters to help us. She was scary to deal with. The restaurant was also very very loud.

Table was not very clean - dirty tablecloth, dirty fork, dirty glass. Salads are half the size they used to be but same price. Overall value for money has diminished.

A close friend and I shared a "between our birthdays" dinner.
The food was amazing and we cleaned our plates.
Dessert was simple and delicious.
We felt a little rushed to vacate our table...close to closing time,
but otherwise had a delightful time.

Curteous and friendly service

Fred's is the ultimate UES scene. Plain and simple. The food is always good but pricey. Very good bread. Best people watching.

Fred’s needs to up its game. How do you expect people coming to Barney’s spending $$ to eat sub par food with even worse service in a D-grade restaurant that hasn’t been redecorated in years. Between the chipped paint and the sad omelette I received, in addition to the self-righteous waitstaff, I will never set foot in Fred’s again no matter how many times I shop here.

MANHATTAN INSIDER LUNCH EXPERIENCE...with all the types ...can film a nyc lunch scene without casting...love the whole scene and the food is good too!!!
