    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...

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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

    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)!

    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.

    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

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Come for drinks I only cause food sounds better than it tastes. Neon nights cocktail is a good twist on Pisco Sour $14.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    with the decor here, vintage feels classically brand new. the chicken and eggs change the way my tastebuds view staple food items.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
