The Smith is a casual American brasserie with four upbeat locations in New York City: The Smith East Village, The Smith Midtown, The Smith Lincoln Square, and The Smith NoMad, as well as locations in DC and Chicago. We care about every meal and every moment. The menu features bistro classics, seasonal fare, and craft cocktails. Walk in the door and you’re in for a great time. Whether it’s date night, drinks on the town, a big birthday bash, a working lunch, a boozy brunch, or an I-don’t-want-to-cook-tonight night, we’ve got you covered.

    My family and I arrived at 5:25 for a 5:30 reservation. We didn’t get our table till after 5:50. We placed our order fairly quickly since we’ve already waited close to 30 minutes for our table and it took them over 40 minutes to get the food to us. We didn’t start eating till about 6:40. This was not good especially when you have small kids. We didn’t even get an apology from the manager. It was a slap in the face and it felt like the smith couldn’t be bothered by us.

    Seated 30 minutes after reservation time after being told “10 more minutes” and then “2 more minutes” a few times. Very small portions and extremely over salted. Salmon tartare had gone bad.

    Been there many times..busy night What was a little odd was that we not offered any specials and the menu we received was somewhat abridged as the table next to us received the more expanded menu. Overall would certainly return

    The French steak sandwich was delicious. My husband had the Smith burger rare and it was rare. Appetizers : shishito peppers and fried calamari were excellent.

    Incredible experience from start to finish! We came on a busy Saturday morning with two small children before the Nutcracker and were seated immediately. Our server was friendly, efficient, and got our food out quickly, knowing we were on a time crunch. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and family-friendly. Can’t wait to return!

    The Smith is a soild chain in New York. maybe the most middlebrow, middle class and centrist choice in town, and that's only a good thing. It's reliable. Has great cocktails. Great fries. And great service.
