   Went to Brunch at BTH on Saturday around 11:30. It was quiet but that could be due to the weather. It started to get busier around 1 with live music starting then as well. I ordered the short rib omelette which was amazing!! The bottomless brunch only lasted 1.5 hours but they were quick to re-fill our pitcher of mimosa's. The view was great looking out over the Hudson river and I really enjoyed the overall experience.

   Sat at the bar while I waited for my fellow lunch party. The Bar tender could not have been more warm in personality than he was at making the cocktails. Which he was very good at. When we were all present we were seated. It was a great brunch. The scenery was lovely it was a sunny New York City day and the windows were open, which added to the ambiance. The ood was wonderful especially the Lobster Mac & Cheese.... Had the Catfish tenders which could have been warmer but delicious non the less. we had the Walnut Salad as well for starters. It was a great time had by all !!!!

   Overall a good experience, I was hesitant to book after reading some of the reviews and issues with service. In fact, the service was a bit slow and lacking in detail, we never had our water glasses refilled, was very slow in taking our dinner order (he may have thought we were there for drinks; but, the question should have been asked). One of our dinners was delayed (supposedly the kitchen missed there were two salmon orders); however, the food arrived and was excellent. The presentation was great, the flavors authentic and some of the sides such the bed of vegetables and bacon with the pork chop was delicious. I think they just need a bit of attention to detail and they will be excellent as the ambiance and views were A+.

   The lobster mac and cheese was phenomenal!!! I went with a group of 4 for my birthday brunch and the prawns and grits were out of this world!!! The unlimited mimosas gave me and my group a great buzz and I will definitely return!!

   It's actually NOT on the waterside... it's highway-side from the Hudson River Pier... but a nice weekend spot for dinner or drinks. The DJ was bumping some really good R&B music.. Will definitely be back.

   We had a noon rez for Sunday brunch @ BTH. This is a great space, love the decor and location right by the hudson :) Food was wonderful too. What wasn't so great was the fact that they would not let me start my "additional charge bottomless mimosas/bellinis for 1.5hrs" at the bar while I waited for the rest of my party to arrive. And they charged me for the drink I had @ the bar! Booooo! Needless to say I didnt bother with the extra mimosas and didnt have any bubbly with my brunch. Table service was a bit lacking - took a long time to get a component of one of our meals, had to fend for ourselves a bit lol. But the view was nice, DJ was playin big tunes, we made the best of it and enjoyed ourselves! We will give them another try, maybe it was too early for them :)

   Service could have been much better. The bus boy spilled water on me, offered no apology, and instead blamed my friend for moving when he came up behind her to place it on the table. Manager never came out as requested.. They never offered us anything for the inconvenience of being wet. The pictures make it look bigger than it actually is.. It's pretty small. This is not somewhere I would go to celebrate, but instead just to grab something quick.

    The Brunch special should include an appetizer and the unlimited mimosas should be just that...UNLIMITED . The food portions are very small, so they are not filling...that's why I think they should include an appetizer.

    Service was excellent. Our waiter, Maurice, was very attentive and accommodating, even when we made last minute changes to our order. The food was excellent. It's a beautiful establishment. The DJ played great throwbacks of r&b, hip hop, and reggae. The music was a bit too loud to have a conversation without repeatedly saying "huh". Overall. I would come back. Particularly for a special occasion because the prices are a bit on the high side.

    The view and the place was amazing but they need to change the menu because online the menu is completey different from the menu at the restaurant. The waitress was doing her own thing she didn't check on us. The people there and the live band was the best part. They gave my friends the wring burger and she bit in it and they took the burger and cooked it and gave her the same bit burger.

    interesting location, with a great view, so we decided to try it for dinner it was about 7pm after being seated for 10-15 minutes without seeing the waitress, i went to the bar to order my drinks the bartender took our order when he brought our drinks, then 5 minutes after that the waitress finally stopped by Its a small place, so anyone observing the restaurant could see that we weer waiting, but no one seemed to care food was below average as well

    Had a great girls night out for my birthday. The DJ was really good. People were up out of their seats dancing in aisles. The drinks are good as well. On the food side I would recommend the catfish tempura. Overall the food was just ok, but the atmosphere and drinks made up for that. Nice place if you want to eat, drink, and wiggle in your seat a little.

    Although the food wasn't bad, it was way too LOUD!! They had a band and the music was blasting, you could not have a conversation. I had 2 Senior Citizens and they wanted to leave, the music was so LOUD. We asked if they could lower a bit and they did nothing. Then after an hour the band ended (Thank God) and they turned on the radio, or pandora or whatever it was and that too was loud. It's certainly not a place for older folks, although I'm of the younger generation and the music was too loud for even me.

    The manager Johnny is amazing and focuses on ensuring each customer is satisfied, I went there a week prior for the first time and was happy with my overall experience that I took my mother back there for Mothers Day. He remembered me and came over to my table to welcome me back. Everything about this place is great.

    Just leaving from an amazing dining experience at BTH. I had seen several friends post pics about this restaurant and tonight was date night with my husband and I. We wanted to keep it local in Harlem so we didn't have a far journey home. I made reservations online via OpenTable because I didn't know how packed they are on the weekday evening. I arrived 8pm for my reservation time. It wasn't busy or packed during this time. I think they may have been 3 tables there when I arrived. My husband was arriving late so I opted to sit at the bar until he arrived. The bartender made my drink as instructed and was pretty personable as well. While sitting that the bar I got a chance to look around the restaurant. The decor was rather modern and trendy and these oversize looking sofas that had tall backs. Along with great decor they have an amazing view of the Hudson. If you are on an intimate date I would recommend making reservations during sunset time. Finally my husband arrived and we were seated. For the appetizers we started with were catfish tempura and lobster mac n cheese. My husband selected the catfish tempura which had beautiful presentation and tasted great. I selected the Lobster mac n cheese and it wasn't the best I had tasted but it was definitely good. I liked that it had rather large pieces of lobster in it. For my entree I ordered the Scallops dish and it was so filling due to the fact it had risotto. My husband offered the Salmon dish which was some of the best salmon I had at a restaurant and I have had a lot. The service was extraordinary as well. Our server was attentive, kind, and personable as well. She told us about their weekend events an the best times to arrive since they fill up fast. I will be returning soon and thank you BTH for an awesome dining experience.

    I enjoyed BTH it was a hip amosphere. It was a live DJ that is usually there on Sundays. Music was awesome! I missed brunch so had to wait for dinner. Food was delicious. Alcoholic beverages was good too and enjoyed dessert too. I like the venue so much I think I will go back this Saturday.

    The music on a Sunday brunch was offensive, loud and obnoxious. Our food was bland and greasy (save for the very good Mac and cheese appetizer). My short rib omlete entree tasted like it had zero seasoning. My boyfriend had the steak and eggs---his steak looked and tasted like it was cooked hours before and just reheated. It was tough, chewy, bland (again) and the center was purple....don't think I've ever seen a purple steak before. Our server didn't bring a drink that was ordered before our appetizer until we were scraping the last of our entrees from our plates. Also, he was very unengaging and frantic. This was a really unpleasant experience. PLEASE turn down the music (and I mean wayyyy down), tell your servers to calm the heck down, season your food and then maybe I would reconsider the possibility of ever coming back. Otherwise, no. Just no.

    Its a shame that this place is so hidden behind the enormous construction happening in that neighborhood. The main courses were delicious. Appetizers were ok. Wine and cocktails were great! But the view at sunset is the reason to go and the amazing service. The scallops and pea risotto were delicious. Scallops perfectly cooked. Risotto well-seasoned and complementary. The prawns were fine. Well cooked. The seasoning was creative but a little odd - something a little sweet/cloying like cinnamon or clove in the spice mixture that wasn't necessary and the sauce was a little greasy. The pork chop was perfectly cooked and delicious. The lobster mac and cheese had a ton of lobster and a nice crust on top but was a little dried out like it may have sat under a lamp for too long or been reheated. It was quiet, the service was amazing. They were friendly and patient and attentive without being annoying or intrusive. I would definitely go back.

    Our food took 2 hours. The waitress explained it was because everyone was seated at the same time, I'm not sure that's a legit excuse. We were not offered water. The place doesn't have a lot of tables but for some reason they were not able to handle it. For 29$ my short rib was Unseasonned. The crowd however was nice the bar was crowded I guess the drinks are good. Location and view were amazing

    I loved the experience the food, drinks, and staff were all on point. I'm sure once the summer comes the view will be super cool. I loved the convenience (as a local harlemite) and validated parking options. My wife wrote a raving review on yelp. Not one complaint.

    This is a nice place. My ONLY complaint was that the place was COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My date and myself had to move a couple of times looking for a warm spot in the restaurant. I guess it will be a nice place whenever Spring and Summer rolls around. The server was awesome (soooooooooo nice); and the bartender was accomodating and the drinks were great. The food (from what I remember) was ok.

    Loved the location right by the water- better for Summer Months. However, the plus was they validate parking which is connected to the restaurant . No worrrying about parking in that desolate area which has very sparce parking. The food was good. It wasn't very crowded. However, it was one of those super cold night that not many people bothered to venture out of thier houses! The food was good and a great variety with lots of options. There was a live DJ that arrived around 10. It provided us with a lounge type atmosphere, but still energetic enough for couples trying to be romantic. I would ldefinitely go back again and of course you cant for get the HUDSON river views right outside with all glass walls/windows.

    My boyfriend and I went to BTH for my birthday since we read good reviews on BTH. When we arrived, the hostess did not greet us (a simple "Good evening, welcome to BTH' would have been nice), but asked if we had a reservation and started to tell us which tables we could and could not sit at. The waitress was polite, very sweet but unfamiliar with the menu (couldn't pronounce cabernet). We wanted to taste two wines from the wine list, but they didn't have either of the bottles available so we tried a shiraz and house wine, and decided to pass on the wine. The waitress apologized and walked away and we had to 'ask' for two glasses of water. For an appetizer my boyfriend ordered the Roasted Corn Chowder soup, and we were informed they didn't have the soup that night (it was a Saturday). He ordered the shrimp cocktail and I had the Tuna Avocado Tartare - which was excellent. My entrée was the French Pork Chop, which was acceptable and he ordered the Steak which was 10 oz. of 'fat'. Overall it was a disappointing dining experience.
