DensSeptember 8, 2011I came with four friends and the waitress said it best: "Get 2 burgers and get them split so you can each have half. Order the steak & we'll slice it and then pick something else to share." Bestest.
Julie SosciaJanuary 29, 2019Try the Black Label Burger and take a stroll in the area afterwards! If you're still hungry - get the chocolate souffle.
POGEA RACINGMarch 28, 2015The absolute best burger I ate in my life. If you order anything else than the prime burger you must be out of your freaking mind.
elizabeth johnsonMarch 9, 2015The smoked pork belly is TO DIE FOR! Service is superb and the atmosphere is lovely for a night out with friends or a romantic, candle lit evening.
AmateurConciergeNovember 20, 2014Yes it's one of the best burgers in Manhattan, but also one of the best plates of fries. Be warned: their preference is to undercook a bit.
Dunash KamarMay 7, 2015At the end of the day its anothet burger place with fancy prices. When trying their steak it was uneatable, the oxtail foi greue was terrible. If all you want is to have a good burger its a good place
ShahApril 19, 2015I mean, wow. The Norwegian salmon, the marrow, the beet salad, the burger; all phenomenal. Plus, beautiful classic atmosphere. Love this place.
Food & WineMay 17, 2011Minetta Tavern's excellent burgers use a beef blend—dry-aged rib eye, skirt steak, brisket and short rib—from famed purveyor Pat La Frieda, and buns from Balthazar Bakery.
Time Out New YorkMay 14, 2013Though it’s not quite the same as it was when F. Scott Fitzgerald hung out here (along with contemporaries like Ernest Hemingway), you can soak in the old-timey ambience—assuming you can get a table. Read more
Damian BayonaJune 2, 2015Black label burger is KING. Don't get fancy with it - order it as the house recommends. You won't be disappointed
Minetta Tavern best Steak in NYC 🍷🍴 Dry Aged Côte de Boeuf😍 with roasted marrow bones and gem lettuce salad
- Stephanie AlvarezJanuary 17, 2013First time really loved this place. The food , people and ambience very low key and fun. Bone marrow was excellent and the black label burger yummy. Definitely make a reservation.
- DensFebruary 1, 2014If you're here for brunch, don't order a Bloody Mary w/out consulting the Bloody Mary Menu. Don't fear the Surf & Turf Bloody Mary (tho the Green Tomatoes Mary can be pretty polarizing)
- Chad HornerSeptember 28, 2016the black label burger is obviously the thing to order. i enjoyed mine, but don't expect to be blown away (i personally prefer the Spotted Pig's offering)
Wejdan ✨December 9, 2016I really don't know how to describe the black label burger. You have to try it yourself to get that wonderful experience. The service is awesome!!- DoubleDeuceApril 4, 2015It can be difficult to walk in and get a seat here so plan ahead. Get the burger like everyone says to do, you'll be pleased (unless you don't eat meat...).
Kazem EdmondJune 19, 2013The Black Label burger is the greatest burger that I've ever eaten. It's made of prime dry-aged cuts of beef. Even the fries are outstanding. You won't regret it.
suneelJanuary 24, 2015marrow and tavern steak are tops. the regular burger is just as good as the black label burger.
Marion PadilhaApril 12, 2015The Black Label Burguer is AWESOME, medium or medium rare. The blonde waitress is not THAT cute and doesn't like to suggest the house's specialties. But... nevermind. Enjoy the place and your burguer!
New York PostSeptember 1, 2014The four-top, circular red booths in the back room allow those seated there to survey the other tables in the room, the beautiful people at them and the comings and goings to and from the kitchen. Read more
A KMay 3, 2015The odd cocktails. Try the pistachio De La Rosa. A margarita with pistachio syrup. A nice quiet place to have a romantic conversation. Yet crowded.
Claire J SongJune 1, 2015Black Label Burger, $28 The Black Label is still remarkably rich and costs only two bucks more than the day it debuted in 2009. Get it with cheese despite scoldy purist dictates.
Kev SkinnyAugust 18, 2016Black Label Burger truly is in a class of its own. Damn you Pat La Freida you genius. Normal burgers will no longer cut the mustard.
That burger 🍔.... be careful cause medium rare is way more on the rare / raw side, but it is delicious nonetheless.
SiovonneAugust 26, 2014You need to try their burger at some point of your life if you're in NYC. The history of this place is astounding, and the old school vibe is still there.
Kevin ThompsonJune 19, 2014Probably the best bone marrow I've ever had. Definitely get that and the pork sausage appetizer to start. The black label burger is a no-brainer- Mike SingletonMarch 13, 2014The no-frills black label burger is the best ground meat I've ever had. Split that and a NY strip steak.
Brad GrahamSeptember 21, 2013“The best, if priciest, burger in NYC is probably the black label burger at the Minetta Tavern. Getting in here, however, can be a challenge. Try early or late.”- Erik FahrenkopfSeptember 29, 2015Start with a Manhattan. Then order a nice glass of red with the Black Label Burger. One of the best "high end" burgers I've ever had.
d.RASeptember 12, 2011One of our favorite places for dinner. Get there early and get a seat at the bar if you don't have a reservation. The roasted bone marrow and chocolate soufflé are two of our favorites!- Aly OradyDecember 28, 2014The Black Label Burger and the bone marrow. I ordered both. Used the bone marrow to top the burger. Mind blown.
Travel + LeisureJuly 30, 2012Keith McNally of Balthazar and Pastis fame preserves the memory of the space (a 1930s saloon) while making the food—well-aged steaks and muscular French fare—better than it ever was.
CharlottesDecember 14, 2015What a special space, cozy and intimate while absolutely buzzing. We went with the black label burgers but the marrow looked incredible.
Erik CintronAugust 19, 2012Walk in thru the front curtain and get transported thru time to speak easy feel with great array of craft beers and liquor. The staff was friendly and food was great too..make sure u get 26$ burger!!
Ben RAugust 7, 2014The Black Label Burger may be famous, but the Cote de Boeuf for 2 is the real winner. Or hey, get both.
From The World BlogOctober 23, 2012Ask for the famous Black Label burger, top meat, caramelized onions and very good fries. In French places is also difficult not to ask for a roasted bone marrow.
Michael ChenApril 11, 2018Sit at the bar, Fab makes the best cocktails. Get a pisco sour and revel in their luxe but relaxed pleasure den.- Jim N.March 1, 2017Great old school feel NYC restaurant. Waiters are attentive, food is solid and drinks are substantial. Restaurant interior is beautiful.
The Black Label Burger is definitely worth it. Yes pricey but great tasting. The ambiance is nice and would be great for a date.
Still the best meat in NYC. Also the old man and the sea cocktail was pretty great. Last price hike make this place pretty expensive.
Jessica ToliuszisJanuary 26, 2016Go for lunch. Get the strip and remember to get it sliced. Classic New York steak house.
Greenwich Village Literary Pub CrawlJune 18, 2012This was a former stop on the Greenwich Village Literary Pub Crawl. It has a rich literary history...want to know more, ask us about it on our tour. (Or set up a private tour and we'll swing by). Read more
just go when it opens, sit at bar. start w the marrow (it's enough for three), then order all the rest of the food they offer.
Jen KApril 22, 2013Black Label Burger = easily the best burger in NYC and quite possibly the best burger I've ever had anywhere
Pax WhitfieldAugust 18, 2014I hate to say this because I have put in the hours and the calories in research, but whatever burger you think is the best...doesn't even come close. I am humbled and appreciative. All thumbs way up.
Established 1937. Interior is mostly original, but menu has been upscaled by new owners. "Parisian steakhouse meets classic New York City tavern." Once visited by all from Beat Poets to Joe Gould.
