Restaurants near 360 Central Park West

Food was fabulous and served family style. Service was not quite up to par as we waited a long time for the check, and then some of the credit card printouts were missing. Waiter seemed very distracted.

Exceptional experience! From the moment your met at the front you feel like the most important person in the room. We were celebrating our anniversary (40) and we were surprised while being served dessert. Could not ask for a better way to celebrate. Many thanks to Tavern on the Green next trip to NY, we’ll be there for dinner 🍾🥂

This year we added a new dish their special ....it was chicken on top of spinach with peppers and cheese and roasted potato in a piccata sauce, simply delicious!!! And of course we saw " our Ralph" for many years we enjoy his smile and his welcoming deameanor, Ralph is one of a kind!!! ❤️

Dining at a restaurant is an experience with many components for me. First, there’s the decision to dine out rather than cook at home—a choice I don’t take lightly, as I consider myself a pretty good cook. Then comes selecting the right restaurant. Once I’ve made a reservation through OpenTable, I include special requests, such as seating preferences and hoping a favorite waiter will be working that night. I look forward to seeing if those details are acknowledged and fulfilled. From the moment I arrive, the experience begins: Am I greeted warmly by the receptionists, who seem genuinely happy to see me and eager to accommodate my requests? Is the maître d' cordial and welcoming? Is the waiter knowledgeable, personable, well-groomed, and engaging? A great waiter can make dining at their station a true pleasure, with a friendly demeanor and a smile that enhances the atmosphere. Then comes a key factor for me: pacing. When I order a cocktail—at Elea, a top-shelf gin cocktail costs $18 plus a $3 surcharge, plus tax and tip (over $50 for two drinks)—I want to savor it. Rushing me to order food detracts from the enjoyment of such a treat. Thankfully, Elea strikes the perfect balance, allowing guests to relax and enjoy each stage of the meal. Of course, the food itself is central. At Elea, the dishes are flavorful, portions are satisfying, and every course feels thoughtfully prepared. The bus staff are attentive without being intrusive, waiting until I’ve truly finished before clearing the table. Dessert is offered but never pushed—a subtle touch that speaks to the restaurant’s professionalism. Elea excels at making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable, leaving guests eager to return. Their team achieves their ultimate goal: creating an atmosphere so welcoming and well-executed that you look forward to coming back again and again.

We always enjoy a meal at Dagon. The food is very good, though a bit pricey. The breads are terrific! We decided to share several starters rather than get an entree - we really like the leek mushroom soup and potato tart specials, as well as the dumplings and the cigar.
