Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Morningside

We visited Le Jardinier restaurant today at 2:40 pm for reserved lunch for 2. We chose a terrace table and had a prefixed menu and some extra . The atmosphere was nice and friendly, the staff was super welcoming and helpful, the all food was simply superb. We’ve been to this place before and I have to say, that today we had much more pleasant experience. The wine , all food, dessert were delicious. We’re from NYC and visited a lot of different restaurants. Today’s lunch was one of the very best! Andres, the waiter, and all others deserved recognition, thank you! We’re planning to return to you at the end of December, at our next trip to Miami. Happy Thanksgiving! Galina

Congrats to me for picking this place, gorgeous and various settings, delicious food. very pleasant service.

Awesome experience at Michael’s Genuine! Food, waitress, hostess were all outstanding! I spotted an error on menu for my favorite pricey wine ($75 vs $750) and Michael let us have it for the listed price! Will certainly return soon!

Great spot but it’s not really a very good place to take a date. Very loud music made it impossible to talk for large portions of dinner. Excellent place for cocktails and dancing or to go with friends

We would have scored Zoi much lower had it not been for our server and restaurant concierge, Sonny. He made us feel seen, welcome and important which while mostly ego-based, adds to an overall restaurant vibe. Sonny goes out of his way to ensure every patron gets VIP treatment. The food is good, not knock your socks off great but adequate as part of an overall enjoyable, sexy and romantic dining experience. Make sure Sonny makes your coffee. Traditional Cuban style that was exceptional. We’ll be back even if it’s just to give him a hug.
