- MMichaelPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •28 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoA wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner with family. Very attentive service. Loved the second floor room we were in. Delicious three course pre-fixe dinner. The hanging bacon, of course, was outstanding. The Brussels sprouts were another winner. My family enjoyed the turkey, the short ribs, the steak, and the ravioli. Nice options. I loved my butternut squash soup, my boulevardier, and the crème brûlée . Overall, a quality, memorable meal.More infoThe Fox & Falcon by David BurkePrice: Expensive• American• South Orange•4
- MMelanieNew York City •9 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoA giant thank you to our server, Trevor-he was so helpful, patient, and knowledgeable. He made our Thanksgiving extra special! As well, I’d like to commend all of the staff that assisted us: I so appreciated the table we were given-thank you to the hostess for that wonderful, quiet table and the gentleman who was I think part of the bussing team and kindly took a picture for us. Finally, a huge thank you to the chef for the delicious menu! It was a beautiful Thanksgiving and we are so grateful to the Blu on the Hudson team. It was amazing to have such a great dining option on a holiday!More infoBlu on the HudsonPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Weehawken•4.7
- RRosavipNew York City •93 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 16, 2024The last time I ate at this location (pre-Nico), it was noisy, and overpriced, with mediocre food and poor service. What a delight to be at Nico’s - lovely soft music, tables placed a comfortable distance from each other to minimize the noise, excellent and pleasant service, and good food at reasonable (by today’s standards) prices. Sorry I avoided coming here before an NJPAC performance for so long!More infoNico Kitchen & Bar - NewarkPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Newark•4.3
