About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Great for brunch
  • Neighborhood gem
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.

    Always love going to this restaurant. However, for the firsft time, I was disappointed with the food. Prorations have gotten smaller, flavoring was off, service was rushed, and it was very noisy inside the place.

    I come here often. This time around, the food came out overcooked. But the reason I am leaving a review is because I was very happy with how the staff took care of it very professionally and felt they deserved some praise. Mistakes happen. But how mistakes are addressed can say a lot about the integrity of a business. Thanks.

    The servers here are uniformly friendly and helpful. Even when it's busy, they go the extra mile. But the noise level is ear-shatteringly loud, making the atmosphere frenetic and tense.

    Food and service very good. Noise level insane regardless of inside or outside dining. Even though we are at 5:30 - which is really early - as had a 7pm show- it was too noisy to even have a conversation with each other. For that reason will think long and hard about returning. 😢

    Fabulous cocktails, though a bit on the pricey side. Food was delicious, service was great even during a rush. Would definitely visit again!

    I love The Smith experience at all the locations I’ve gone to. Our visit this weekend was great with wonderful service and food. I hadn’t seen my friend in many months and they were so patient with us - really grateful for that and makes me sure to visit again for any of our Lincoln center events too!! Convenient and comfortable!!
