Temple Court

It was just so romantic and very low key......NY best kept secret

My fiancé and I planned on going here for the holidays, however it closed. Once they reopened we booked reservations and boy was it worth the wait. Not only was the ambiance of the restaurant absolutely stunning. The service was beyond amazing, the food was nothing like I ever tasted and opened my own taste buds, AMAZING. If you want to get that perfect photo don’t worry they got you covered. They went out of their way to took our phot twice! I would highly recommend this restaurant.

One year anniversary

Absolutely amazing atmosphere, beautiful decor, the food was divine and a lovely atmosphere.

Engagement

Everything was amazing! We were wowed by the decor, and our every part of our meal (4 courses with 2 bonus tastings) was unreal. The food, the service, the ambiance, everything was perfect. 100% would recommend.

Beautifully set, incredible service. Celebrated my almost 40th birthday and they took great care of us with complimentary sparkling red and a candle in my dessert. Safe with all covid protocols in place.

I understand we are living in a pandemic and I feel badly that I have to report that I had one of the worst and most overpriced meals of my life at this restaurant. We arrived and expected to be sat downstairs in the beautiful bar room but apparently on open table you can only reserve for the ultra expensive west Terrace which sounds fancy but it’s really a glassed in temporary enclosure with greenery hanging from the ceiling. The only choice is an outrageously priced $125 per person pre fixe menu. Even that might’ve been survivable if the beet entrée didn’t look and taste like spam, and the main course of brisket resemble something from the diner on my corner. With a couple of drinks and a tip the meal came to more than $400 for two people. I will never return.

We had a fabulous experience! Our waiter Josè was friendly and so knowledgeable of the menu. The sommelier was fantastic, offering facts and stories about each wine pairing. We left so happy with our meal and service. It was worth the price.

Celebrated my birthday there! The food was great and the service was outstanding our waiter was Jose, great service from him. He gave us the history and top! Love the atmosphere and scenery. Would definitely recommend. - Mayumi

PERFECTION.

This was the nicest dining experience I’ve had in a very long time. We were all pleasantly surprised. They took their time and we didn’t feel rushed and the place is absolutely breathtaking.

Everything was fantastic

Delicious food, great cocktail and wine program and excellent service in beautiful, intimate venue.

Magical space - high quality, gourmet experience..

The food was not good at all , my bill was 315 which I wouldn’t mind if the food was worth it . The seating was very beautiful but I wouldn’t go back because of the food , service was good too

Very attentive sommelier/host and wait staff. The menu was so savory! Despite the pandemic they did a great job with healthy and safety.

The atmosphere was beautiful, wonderful service, I will be back!

A lovely venue, beautifully decorated. Would have preferred some more ventilation given the current pandemic

They have done such a great job with this space; it's just beautiful to sit in! At least for the time being, you have to do a pre-fixe meal. Totally worth it though, everything was delicious! I also highly recommend the wine pairing - the wines were great and you get a healthy "tasting" pour - my favorite!! Would absolutely recommend, the staff was amazing, the food was fantastic.

A throwback to days gone by when NYers cared about fine food and made the time to enjoy it.
Bravi !

Amazing food, great customer Attention, incredible Ambiance.

We dined on the new tenth floor terrace and were treated to a delicious 4 course menu and wine paring. The terrace has a wonderfully romantic vibe and coupled with the cheerful, attentive service it made for a great dining experience. I highly recommend you visit this neighborhood gem.

Took my wife here for her birthday. It was worth every penny.

If you’re French and are use to tiny plates and paying a fortune you’ll be satisfied. A small Appetizer they gave was literally ONE Piece of ravioli with cheese inside. The other courses were very small as well. To say I was in shock is an understatement. I am a slim person and eat as a normal individual, I go to many four & five star restaurant in Manhattan, I will never go back to this restaurant. (Spent approximately $410 after tip) .

Absolutely magical space... the decor is just perfect! The food was delicious! I’m not a fan of mushrooms at all but gobbled up the mushrooms that accompanied the short rib. Try the lobster!

The ambiance at Temple Court is wonderful - a very nice dining experience. The dishes were nicely prepared and very tasty.

Beautiful setting in the atrium. We tried everything on the menu and it was all delicious. It was a wonderful dining experience.

Excellent service and food.

We celebrated our 25th anniversary at the Temple Court on Ten (West Terrace). While we were hoping for an outdoor dining experience due to COVID, we were in a beautifully decorated greenhouse style structure--no outside views, but with hanging wisteria plants (probably all artificial, but they looked great) decorating the interior. There was no a la carte menu, only the prix fixe ($125 per person) which gave at least two options for every course. We both opted for the wine pairing (another $70 per person), which paired a glass of wine with each course--four courses, four glasses of wine. The waiter was terrific in explaining the wines and how they paired with the various dishes. And boy were those pairings terrific. My dishes--the Spanish Octopus Carpaccio, honeynut squash and chestnut soup and Chatham Cod Duo--were superb. My wife had the Roasted Badger Flame Beets, Glazed Lobster tail and Pekin Duck Breast over coals, and they were all amazing. The desserts were good, but not quite up to the level of the previous courses. The lemon blueberry Millefeuille was too sweet for me (more lemon curd than blueberry), as was the syrupy sherry served with it, and while the Caramel Mousse was good, it was not amazing. However, the service was terrific, and overall the experience was great. Expensive as hell, but after all, how many 25th anniversaries does one have?

Temple Court on Ten is magically gorgeous. What a pretty, romantic setting to dine in. The service was kind and attentive and the food delicous!

Stunningly decorated (and covered) terrace with great service and an inventive, tasty menu. Not cheap when you go full menu w/ wine pairing, but given the occupancy limitations it's still well within NYC norms.

Great ambiance and delicious food!

Dining out during COVID can be concerning for some, but Temple Court has made the entire experience safe, comfortable and thoroughly enjoyable. From the safety measures, beautiful ambiance, impeccable food and prompt service, it was a truly fantastic evening. Thank you!

Truly one of the most underrated restaurants in NYC. The ambiance is GORGEOUS and the service impeccable. Some of the best staff in the city. Thanks to Darren, Laura and our server Jose for making the evening magical. The food is perfection- and amazing wine & cocktail list.

Great atmosphere and food. The price is a little on the higher range.

This was a fabulous experience having such a wonderful meal on the rooftop. I hope this dining experience continues next year as well.

The food was delicious. However, I am surprised that a restaurant of this caliber would not have heat lamps. Beautiful outdoor terrace but it was very chilly which took away from the ambiance.

Under our state of affairs, expectations are at a low point right now. Although we had trouble getting to the rooftop dining bc we did not have a room card key to access the elev. But we did make it up there eventually. There are two outdoor areas, very spacious one area sectioned off with flowers/greenery. Originally the host sat us at the first section table with out any flowers. That was disappointing, but the waiter sensed our dissatisfaction and so we moved to a flower sectioned area. We were able to get a few snapshots of the view and from there everything went smoothly and the dishes were all good.

Romantic place for a date. Food was excellent. Quite expensive but I guess that's what you pay for the ambiance!
