Joslyn HansenJanuary 13, 2017Delicious egg salad sandwich, and a killer cocktail program that is slightly different from their bar across the street (but bartenders at either location can usually make anything from both menus).
Sean StenstromFebruary 26, 2014Brunch in west village. The century-old oven downstairs produces beautiful, crusty breads, but the real magnet at this window-walled, congenially noisy spot is the lengthy something-for-everyone menu.
Courtney R.March 24, 2013Everything on the menu is ah-ma-zing. I had one of their specials tonight which was a grilled spicy avocado, blew my mind. Bread pudding for dessert = huge & nom nom nom. Manager was super attentive,
Wilson ZhouJune 27, 2015A little bit pricy compared with other neighborhood, anyway it's west village, nice cozy spot for a relaxing brunch though no complimentary drinks. Salmon Benedict is on toast, well prepared.
JackSeptember 17, 2016Every time I visit this place, I have a fantastic time. For me it's the best meal in NYC. Don't forget to order crème brûlée for a desert!
If you know anything about life you will order the steak tartare- consistency done to perfection. Do the grilled avocado and bread pudding desert in half orders. Did I mention the bread? Special place
DensFebruary 24, 2014The seat just behind the bar that's set into the window = great spot to stop for a drink / snack. Shrimp and chorizo app is right in my wheelhouse... tho $19 is a bit steep.
EatMeDrinkMeNYCFebruary 21, 2013The basement bakes the bread for all Blue Ribbon properties. The filet mignon is amazing. If you have room after the main course, the chocolate chip bread pudding is incredible to share.
Amanda SaviñónMay 4, 2014we got the plateau and it was everything I could ever imagine! fresh and raw seafood on ice. the atmosphere was dim, quiet even with all the tables full. went around 12am
Yura LeeJune 28, 2015Everyone at this place is SO nice! The coffee, Blue Benedict (?) poached eggs, Challah Deluxe...A+++++👍🏻❤️
Kevin WangMay 29, 2016Whitefish salad sandwich = super solid and yummy. Fries are great too. + amazing hospitality.
Jill TannenbaumMarch 13, 2013Their basics are way above par but there are many more ambitious dishes worth trying like the shrimp & chorizo. And the chocolate chip bread pudding is not to be missed.
Rets MaAugust 6, 2014Had the duck breast when beef and chicken are my go-to but was pleasantly surprised with flavor and bed of mashed potatoes
Ashley SungApril 23, 2011Filet mignon melts in your mouth. And please please PLEASE get the chocolate bread pudding. The best I've ever had. You can also get chocolate / banana bread pudding half and half
Lucu ChalmetonMarch 29, 2015Cute restaurant. Had their French toast as dessert, but still prefer the one from Extra Virgin.
Lisa BennettFebruary 26, 2016Had the halibut with lentils and cabbage. Sounds like an odd combination, but the flu it's we're super. Fish was wonderfully moist too!!
Jenny LeeJuly 12, 2014Try the halibut special. The drizzled sauce is also a good "dip" when enjoying your dinner companion's French fries.
Sara FayApril 27, 2013Chamomile mint lemonade and homemade matzoh with Parmesan, garlic and all the other yummy things you could think of.
KatAugust 15, 2015The Manchego + Mexican honey toast is one of my favorite dishes in the city. Perfection.
Mike McBryanOctober 30, 2014Sit at the bar and take a loaf of bread (baked fresh that morning) with you on your way out.
Erin PettigrewFebruary 7, 2010Anything w/ the challah bread is scrumptious. Chocolate chip bread pudding is deliciously guilty end to the meal. Venture downstairs to the cellar to see the bakery in action. A warm, yeasty marvel.
Serious EatsApril 16, 2013American classics like fried chicken dressed up and classed up. A little on the pricey side.
ShahApril 19, 2015For when you're hungry before the Sullivan St location opens. The BBQ pork sandwich is fantastic.
Maya BaratzMay 10, 2012Come for a late group dinner downstairs. Bathe in Intoxicating fresh-baked break smell. On some nights, they'll hand you a loaf on your way out.
Brownstone Living NYCApril 24, 2016Excellent brunch. Downstairs is great for private dinners and functions.
JeffreySeptember 30, 2016Closing at the end of November. Do not miss brunch, or any of the breads at this spot!
F-Factor NutritionOctober 17, 2012This place has a great menu and an amazing bread basket. Perfect for a cozy afternoon.
Lauren MacDecember 25, 2015Fried chicken and friendly service! Portions aren't large, but area is adorable.
Eelain SteketeeAugust 17, 2011all that is good is fat.. bone marrow w/ bacon bread, BR's famous fried chicken w/ honey, chocolate bruno.. all together now, E X P A N D your waistline.
Blue Ribbon BruceNovember 18, 2011The private dining room is great for intimate holiday gatherings and can accommodate parties of 8-12. Call (212) 337-0404 for more information!
BravoNovember 11, 2010If I’m in NYC, it is always a stop. It doesn’t get any better than this. Just great food. -Tim Nugent, Top Chef Just Desserts
Blue Ribbon RestaurantsDecember 15, 2011Blue Ribbon Bakery bakes all of its breads in house in a 140+-year-old oven using ancient artisan techniques.
mike ZJanuary 22, 2012Cup of coffee + Tomato soup = Sunday morning hangover cure. Save room for the chocolate chip banana bread pudding
Katie SchlossJanuary 30, 2012Yes, I've ordered the profiteroles for breakfast here once, but most of the time, it's the Blue Benedict.
The shrimp and chorizo (baked in garlic and parsley) is SOLID!!!

"Get all their cookies piping hot - chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin and double chocolate with peanut butter. The calories are worth it."
