Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Washington Heights

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner at Bond 45. The food was amazing and we look forward to returning next year!

Went for Christmas Eve dinner. Staff (Ryan) was super attentive and the holiday menu gave many great options for each course. It was the perfect place to celebrate!

We are not new to Kellari, but that is kind of the point. We visit New York frequently from DC to see theater and eat well. Some of that eating is always done here. The freshness of everything, from the fish to the beefsteak tomatoes on the salads, is remarkable. One always leaves feeling both satisfied and healthier for the experience. This time we had some spanakopita (not to be missed) and a split Greek salad (Oh, those tomatoes!) with a piece of Fagri that was perfectly fresh and exquisitely done. We had a great half-bottle of Brunello, too, from their ample selection of splits, which is great for diners like us who want a taste but can seldom finish a whole bottle. The ambiance is comfortable to the point of being family-like. As for service, it is always stellar and Phillip easily upheld that tradition. We recommend this place to all who are attracted by the menu with the highest measures of confidence and enthusiasm.

Second time to NYC, second time to Friedmans for breakfast. Great food although I wish they served omelets. Everything we ordered was great. Great espresso drinks as well. Excellent service both times, this time it was 4 adults and 4 kiddos 9 and under. Would definitely go again and highly recommend.

Fantastic experience! We arrived early and they were able to seat us. I ordered the meatloaf and my husband ordered the vegetarian stew. Both meals were delicious. Service was exceptional and very fast (thank you to our server Devon). I would def recommend and will return.
