About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups
  • Hot spot
The Smith is a casual American brasserie with four upbeat locations in New York City: The Smith East Village, The Smith Midtown, The Smith Lincoln Square, and The Smith NoMad, as well as locations in DC and Chicago. We care about every meal and every moment. The menu features bistro classics, seasonal fare, and craft cocktails. Walk in the door and you’re in for a great time. Whether it’s date night, drinks on the town, a big birthday bash, a working lunch, a boozy brunch, or an I-don’t-want-to-cook-tonight night, we’ve got you covered.

    This was our first time here. The noise level was completely unacceptable. Ruined our dinner experience. We had to shout across our table. We left without having coffee or dessert and couldn’t finish our wine it was so loud.

    Definitely get the tuna tartare and calamari as apps, food is incredible, waiter was great and not overbearing. Hated the table location where they sat us near the restroom, other then that it’s def a must try

    The pastas that we ordered were on the salty side. Other than that, everything was delicious. service was very attentive too. We were a large group (16 people) and everyone had a great time. Also, was very happy that we were able to order ala carte from the menu instead of being stuck with a prefixe menu.

    It was noisy and crowded - but they did their best to give us a quieter table and also to get us fed and out within an hour so we could get to the theater on time. The food was great.

    Louder than standing under the Manhattan Bridge. Medium rare burger came medium well but was promptly (and correctly) replaced. Salmon appetizer was stellar but most of the other food was average.

    The food was better quality and fresher and served warmer at the Nomad location and this menu was more limited so not sure we will come back. The service was fantastic though, we really liked our served Tom, he was excellent! They gave us a great booth which we really enjoyed.
