  • I have to agree, with those prices its going to be hard to differentiate itself in the neighborhood. As much as i would like to support another neighborhood place, I cant see myself spending that kind of money on a routine basis. — Bob on Seen & Heard: The Menu at Yves

  • The NYT just ran a mention, with the website (http://yves-nyc.com) and phone (212-431-3385). — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: The Menu at Yves

  • The new economics of opening a restaurant in New York City make that highly unlikely. There's a good NYT look at http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/26/dining/restaurant-economics-new-york.html. — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: The Menu at Yves

  • And my excitement at having a new restaurant in the neighborhood is crushed by those prices. I was really hoping for a new, mid-price option. — Donna on Seen & Heard: The Menu at Yves

  • I've been waiting years for this space to open as I both work and live nearby. The setting is spectacular and it is great to have a grand bar. When the atrium first opened a few weeks ago the apps were well done, but subsequently they stopped serving food there. I've eaten twice now at Fowler & Wells and the food has been disappointing and a poor value versus cost. The throwback concept is interesting but the kitchen cannot achieve that style unless food is slow cooked. The present version needs a lot of refinement and more some more traditional dishes should be added for increased choice. The salads are overly salted and small ($17). The entrees need to be rethought. The discount is good idea though until they work out the kinks. — Lewis Gross on First Impressions: Fowler & Wells

  • I went to the new and improved Ivy's, I mean Yves on Saturday night and it was tasty! I had the cod and the spaghetti squash, both delish! I also liked the drink "Boyfriend Material," with the caveat that I like girlie drinks. — Yael on Seen & Heard: The Menu at Yves

  • Took my son trick or treating this afternoon and the owner/manager of ninja was actually giving out candies. Such a sweet man. Hope the restaurant cleans up and reopens soon. — TribecaMom on Seen & Heard: Ninja vs. the Health Department

  • Amen! There are no bad dogs, just evil, inconsiderate dog owners. — kevinaitch on Where in Tribeca…?

  • Also a great app called Surge (go figure) will let you know where to walk to for the non-surge price — Vince on In the News: Hamptons Shop’s Holiday Pop-Up

  • Re: surge pricing, you can also wait. Recently I tried to book a ride and was informed surge was in effect. I waited 10 minutes and the price dropped to about half the surge price. — Makes you go "hmmm..." on In the News: Hamptons Shop’s Holiday Pop-Up

  • Interesting re: the surge pricing... thanks for the link. I've been using Juno a lot more than Uber recently... actually I tend to open their app 1st. Only go to Uber if a Juno driver isn't reasonably close. I don't have a problem with surge pricing in theory, but in practice it appears to be a bit shady they way it's implemented. I've seen screencaps taken of a driver's Uber where the message is alerting them to "guaranteed surge" was going to start at a certain time. Don't have that issue w/ Juno (i think the company is currently paying any "surge"). Be curious to see what effect the competition has & how they evolve. — Jeff on In the News: Hamptons Shop’s Holiday Pop-Up

  • Hudson Market has the best breakfast sandwiches in the neighborhood. One of the best I've had in the city. 2 eggs and they dont skimp on the eggs either. Cant beat the price of 3.75 either. — 40 Harry on Seen & Heard: Breakfast Sandwiches
