Known for its downstairs speakeasy night scene, the restaurant upstairs is chic nyc. Never really been impressed by the dinner, but the mixed drinks and desserts never miss the mark - 🍋 meringue 👌🏼

ACME is known for a great late night party, but their food is delicious any time of day! Try the miner's burger with a charcoal rub and check out their great wine list.

here for a late brunch? you can't go wrong if you start by sharing a country toast and then go for the chicken and eggs. a bit of sweet with lots of delicious savory...
Holger LüdorfOctober 25, 2012
The chicken & egg dish as well as the fried green tomato special were excellent. Definitely try to make a reservation as this place became a scene by 8 pm on a Wed night.

Sample the inventive Nordic cuisine of this Downtown hot spot. Seasonal specialties have included crispy salmon skin with cucumbers, oysters with celery broth and johnny cakes with braised pork. Zagat

Love! One of my fave brunch spots. The pastry basket is amazing to start off with, and the duck spinach salad is delicious, as is the lamb sandwich! The ambiance and crowd is great too
Carly AyresNovember 11, 2014
Great place to go with a group. Plates are meant to be shared, so choose several and try a bit of everything! Fish tacos: two thumbs up.
ReetSeptember 1, 2013
Loved the radishes, farmer's egg, and the tomatoes outshone the lobster in the entrée. Top it off with the super fresh tasting olive oil ice cream (better than the b&b porridge imho)!
Ms HeleneDecember 17, 2016
Come for drinks I only cause food sounds better than it tastes. Neon nights cocktail is a good twist on Pisco Sour $14.
Sara StatesSeptember 1, 2013
I have so much love for this place. One of my favorite spots for dinner with friends. I don't understand why there are so many tips complaining about the food as I've never had one bad dish.
Janice M.March 3, 2013
Cozy up in a corner booth with whole grains (deep mushroom flavors), buffalo tartare, chicken & egg and the excellent cocktails--the vegetable-based drinks proved surprisingly balanced and flavorful
Eelain SteketeeJuly 9, 2012
the menu is delightful and playful yet very sophisticated.. come with an open mind and empty stomach. definitely sample the apps.. each so different and so good. my favorite was the Farmer's Eggs.
Sophie BakalarJune 25, 2016
Everything is delicious, but especially the Brussels sprouts. Pasta portions MIGHT be considered a tad small for some people, so consider getting an app first
CITY GRITAugust 5, 2014
This is one of our favorite spots for Brunch. Our top picks are Endive Salad, Fried Duck Eggs, Pork Rillette, and the Bread Pudding Griddle Cake!
Karl With A "K"January 23, 2015
Great plates for sharing -- try the spare ribs and the chicken & eggs. Also has a great scotch selection.
HOBNOB MagazineJuly 1, 2012
Very unique Scandinavian dishes. Raw section: try the foie gras/lobster combo. Steak and side of creamy mashed potatoes. Egg dish. Cool, laid back room with lots of spots to eat at the bar.
Veronique VFebruary 9, 2013
Good new addition to my brunch rotation. Enjoyed my smoked salmon eggs Benedict, and the crispy smashed potatoes are phenomenal. Also of note: the apple griddle cake. Nomnom.
Jackson IsaacsonSeptember 25, 2018
Great vibe, decent cocktails, and a chic space.
Caroline SchulweisJanuary 22, 2017
Good food with fresh ingredients. Really liked the butternut squash and the baked rigatoni.
Victoria NatenzonMay 3, 2014
Went for dinner with a few friends. Great service, great food. Expect to spend a decent amount of money. Would recommend going in a group or even a date.
Peter PJanuary 20, 2013
Came here for brunch and had the Pineapple Sage Bellini. It was delish: lightly herby and sweet but not too sweet. The scrambled eggs were great too...creamy in a good way.
Rusty Van RiperAugust 31, 2013
An absolutely delicious meal.. Split the chilled melon soup, raw vegetables, and country bread with peaches with a friend. Delicate and sophisticated; filling and yummy.
Patricia SireraAugust 18, 2015
Great and awesome place! The best part is... Not bumping into a 5 page menu. Simple, unique and tasty
Jennifer KSeptember 16, 2012
Been here 5+ times
Everything we ordered at brunch was crave-worthy. Bendict w/ house cured salmon, pork sandwich, smashed potatoes- yum. Indulge with the Danish "doughnuts" well worth it.
EricAugust 19, 2013
Oak and Pine dessert is the best dessert I've ever had. I have died and gone to heaven with it. Mackerel and truffle pie is a close second.
Lockhart SteeleJanuary 24, 2012
Welcome to the inner sanctum. We're not in Cajun country anymore. Order everything, repeatedly, but above all do not miss the bread pudding dessert thing. DO NOT MISS. #ACMEWIRE
Adrienne SMarch 19, 2012
One word: overrated. Disclaimer: I had high expectations from the co founding chef at Noma. Caveat: the beer and bread porridge and doughnuts are really delicious. (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Stina P.February 6, 2014
with the decor here, vintage feels classically brand new. the chicken and eggs change the way my tastebuds view staple food items.
LaurenOctober 2, 2012
Eat the Truffle Parfait for dessert-even if you think it sounds weird. It is so worth it! I've never tasted anything like it.
David 🎉 LasterJanuary 31, 2012
Reopened in 2012 with everything different but the name. Small menu with contemporary American dishes. Lively environment but not too loud. Fashionable waitstaff (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Excellent vibe, fun drinks! The oysters were great! Also enjoyed their downstairs bar as it was moody and dark

The hottest spot in town. The food is very good, make sure you pay attention to specials, usually they are spectacular.Sit by the bar to get whole ACME experiance
Suri RSeptember 4, 2013
Can only speak to the early weekday atmosphere downstairs, which is so ace. Yummy cocktails
Paige CSeptember 10, 2014
We only came for drinks, but we dined next to Whoppi Goldberg and Sarah Jessica Parker, so I think it's safe to say that this restaurant is a true gem of NYC.
Aaron Lyle GMarch 22, 2012
The beer and bread porridge for dessert is the way to go. Served with a scoop of ice cream, it's perfect flavors, temperatures, and consistencies.
CompassMay 19, 2014
The lines are long and the bouncers are picky at Acme, but once you’re inside the double-decker restaurant-and-lounge you’ll forget all about the wait.
MaximMay 21, 2013
Try the new Russian cocktail with pear-infused zubrowska! Chicken and eggs was great, and the new Pine dessert is a must.
Jeana CostaMarch 8, 2012
Excellent spot! Drink: My Fair Lady. Apps: Country Toast, Pearl Barley + Clams (a must). Entree: Maine Lobster. Side: Creamy Potatoes
Matthew ChristensenFebruary 18, 2012
Really awesome space to throw a party or grab a drink on a date. Beware that the owner has an issue with duo of guys or groups that are too well dressed.
Myrtille BouletJune 16, 2013
Foxy, grilled asparagus and slow-cooked cod are highly recommended. A bit overprice but service is very good and decor is nice
Brad GreenSeptember 30, 2013
Make sure to get a table in back. The plates are meant for sharing. The chicken and eggs are great.
Benjamin KintnerJanuary 9, 2017
Excellent pasta and cocktails. The butternut squash appetizer is also great.
Anita MooreDecember 23, 2014
sit at the bar. order aged tequila. rinse. repeat. Downstairs is fun as well. Tough doorman though.
Adam HillAugust 7, 2014
Food's fine here, but do yourself a favor and walk the two blocks over to Great Jones Cafe if you're looking for Cajun
Ayesha ChackoMarch 30, 2014
Chicken and eggs, black barley, and cauliflower were great. Bartenders and cocktails even better!
Saif DiaSeptember 8, 2015
The beer pudding is a complex combination of flavours. Well worth trying

Not really southern but very nice. Loved the langoustines and foi gras dish. Had to order seconds!
Amaury TouchyourTrililiApril 8, 2018
The fried artichoke and acme burger were excellent
NicoleJanuary 26, 2015
The bartenders really know what they're doing. Get a cocktail and the johnny cakes.
