Elizabeth new york city restaurant

I would buy a copy… My Grandmother took me for lunches…. I am a book publisher and would be VERY interested in this project. My email is enchantedlion gmail. My name is Claudia. Please contact me. We can discuss doing the book and can send Steve some free copies!! You need to contact Henri Gilbert. I will be on line too buy a copy also. Would love to hear from you, Henri! I also have many colleagues at larger publishing houses.

The food was fine but it was the atmosphere of an era gone by that intrigued me. It was a great shock to see all these handsome Gay Young Men eating in this Tea Room among the lady shoppers who ate their lunch here. What great times to remember. Could this be my boss and friend from BCYL?

I know your post is from ,but I still hope you get this!!! I remember the lunches there! Felt like an old Altman shopper before my time. Fond memories…. Hello, I have been looking for that recipe as well…. Hello, I have most of the recipes as my father was the last to own the thriving business. Virgie was the head cook ever since they moved to NYC.

Could not read nor write yet made the best cod fish cakes in town. I will look for those cookie recipes and others but I fear it disappeared with others like the Lady Baltimore and the Lemon cake. I think they were made with chopped pickles and mayo. They also served chopped pot roast with chopped mushrooms and mayo. I would LOVE to have the recipe for the white cake with chocolate frosting! The cake was not too sweet, and the frosting was fudgy but not heavy on buttercream.

I have never found another like it and have been searching for years for a recipe that could even come close. We often sat at the counter and ate sandwiches from waxed paper bags. My mother loved the coconut cake and would be thrilled to have another slice today. Oh, and the crullers — they were brought home for a weekend treat. Do not know the recipe all natural ingredients. Does anyone know any of her cookie recipes? Kirby — hi there — I just learned about the Mary Elizabeth site, and have posted a message…missing you all…I may make an appearance this year.

The adjustment has not been easy…but Bob is in hog heaven. You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Google account.

We love getting the wine option with the tasting menu, because we always feel that our experience and knowledge is being expanded but never in a way that makes us feel lost or condescended to. For our last dinner, we ended up being there for five hours from start to finish, with courses and wine arriving with perfect timing that never left us either bereft or rushed. There was an error and the manager corrected it.

But a red headed gentlemen that took over our waitress was very rude. We sat by the open area. Perfect weather with a nice breeze. The waiter was great and the food was excellent. But I heard they are closing in 30 days.

So hurry up and make a reservation and eat there before they're gone for good. You won't be disappointed. Went for date night. Food was mediocre, felt overpriced.

Service incredibly subpar. Steak was too rare and server never checked on food or cared to make sure it was prepared as requested. Not deserving of its Michelin star. Lovely place, great food, but terrible service -- the waiter never told us anything about the menu and then actually laughed in my face when I asked him details about some specific dishes, saying: "We have a Michelin Star!

It's all good! I was super disappointed with our evening at Public. The space is amazing - albeit loud on a Friday night. The wait staff was pleasant but not at all attentive and "did their job" without being friendly. The food was boring and in very small portions. Luckily it was not expensive. I could cook this or better at home with one hand. I won't be back anytime soon. Public was my first job when I moved to New York. It is special to me. To this day I still think it has the dopest, sexiest and most unique ambience.

This restaurant will be missed, I definitely recommend going before they close! Have loved this restaurant for years and am so sad it is closing. Last time before it closes. One of our favorites. I love this restaurant and have been there a dozen times. Service last night was so bad, I am no longer sad it is closing. Although Jose is wonderful!

Public use to be my go to late night and brunch stop. I just had Easter brunch here and it was better than I remembered. We had a reservation for 5 and was running really late, they couldn't have been nicer. The service was warm, friendly and courteous. The food as good as very. The dreamy and luscious Turkish eggs.

The kimchi waffle with eggs was just plain yummy. Go for an overall good Soho dinning experience before they close Luke is a wonderful restaurant and I am so glad they are closing. We did the 5 course tasting menu and it was amazing. The atmosphere was great - wonderful music selection to set the vibe. The music was way too loud.

The food was nothing out of the ordinary. I've been there before and have had a great experience. But not this time. Fantastic restaurant Inspiring atmosphere, outstanding food and great cocktails. My boyfriend and I went on a much needed date night. The food was absolutely delicious, each bite was a burst of flavor sensation. The service was fantastic from the host to busses to serve and the highlight of our night was the sommelier, Jose! He was extremely knowledgeable and experienced with wine, and more importantly we enjoy talking with him because he was such a nice, interesting guy!

I highly recommend this restaurant and please order some wine and ask to speak with Jose! The food is stellar. Try the tasting menu. Interesting flavors and beautifully cooked and presented. Wonderful experience!!! Amazing brunch with unusual menu options. Tea smoked salmon, turkish eggs were exceptional. Never had a bad meal at Public -- everything is interesting, worth eating, and worth talking to others about An iconic space and creative, yet comforting dining experience.

My bad for not returning more often over the years. Never disappointed. Loud music makes an otherwise energetic volume almost unbearable. Food, which I have enjoyed in the past, was all a little fussy and seemed all to sweet. Sad to see that this Michelin 1 star will be closing in June. Get there while you can for an exceptional experience. Very attentive staff and nice lowkey spot. Had the Impossible burger: it was great. A little pricy but I guess not by Manhattan standards.

The food was fantastic and the service great.
