    We really enjoyed our dinner here. The server was excellent and was very helpful with selecting some of our meal. Very much enjoyed the charcuterie selections and the pork tenderloin. We were happy to find some interesting non-alcoholic beverage selections as well. I would happily return.

    Trestle on Tenth combines very fine food with a nice atmosphere just steps from the High Line. A terrific place to dine when in Chelsea.

    I have eaten here several times before for dinner and liked it very much. This time was disappointing. I ordered a crab cake sandwich and I swear the crab cake arrived at the restaurant frozen on a slab. The result was a tasteless, greasy, perfectly round patty that looked and tasted like it was prepared at a fast food restaurant or a school lunch cafeteria. It's not that hard to make a fresh crab cake and I would expect a restaurant of this caliber to at least make an effort. Get some fresh crab meat and look up the recipe on the internet. My father ordered pate which came in a jar with stale toast points. The bread we had at the start of the meal was good - they should use it for the pate. Our service was also spotty. Our server was pleasant but forgot to bring us our beers until after our food came. Pro-tip: anyone who orders a beer at lunch really needs it. I live in the neighborhood and I like the atmosphere of this place and have liked the food in the past - I hope they step up their game.

    This was our second trip to Trestle on 10th, which was a recommendation from a friend. The patio is REALLY lovely. The food and service, from the host through to and including everyone who came to the table, was thoughtful, caring, and friendly.

    My friends and I LOVE this place, especially for lunch/ brunch. Even when they offer "simple" dishes, these turn out to have something original about them and to taste really good. The burger is a case in point; for me, it's quite simply the best to be had, with real meat and wonderfully seasoned. Wonderful oysters too, whimsically served. The wine list is shortish, but I've never had a glass that wasn't delicious. Wait staff are friendly and relaxed in a really good way but also very well-informed and professional.
