Natalie VFebruary 13, 2016IMHO the Minetta burger is better than the black iron, but you can't go wrong with either. :)
Carmen NAugust 10, 2014Really glad I finally made it to try the legendary Black Label Burger. Also super impressed by the cocktail with pistachio syrup.
Chris LSeptember 19, 2014We resisted the hype, scoffed at the wait, and fell promptly in love w/ the Black Label, and the marrow dish. Oh, to be a carnivore...
William NelliganNovember 13, 2015Sit in a booth in the back, order a glass of wine and some roast beets, and imagine convening with the heads of the other families.
Cole KennedyNovember 13, 2022Everything you’ve heard is true. Tough to grab a table but you can get lucky walking in after 9 PM on a weeknight.
Hailey NguyenSeptember 10, 2017The black label burger is great, and I love the thick-cut bacon on the side
Benson ChanDecember 30, 2012Try the Black Label Burger. Classy inside. How the burger is made: http://mobile.aht.seriouseats.com/archives/2009/03/secrets-of-minetta-taverns-black-label-burger-1.html
- CREATETHE GROUPNovember 28, 2012Great spot for incredible food and bustling ambience. Top picks include the Black Label Burger and the Cote de Boeuf for two. -John W.
PeopleAugust 23, 2010If you manage to get a seat, don't miss the $26 Black LabelBurger (and equally loved bone marrow appetizer). And be sure to say hi to Madonna or Gwyneth for us—they could be at the table next to you.
New York HabitatOctober 28, 2011For $26, their signature Black Label Burger better be amazing…and it is. Topped with caramelized onions, it tastes as amazing as it looks. Get it and your stomach will never be happier.
Paolo BaroneFebruary 23, 2014Try the Pistachio De La Rosa - Stembra Azul Reposado, Grand Marnier, Pistachio Syrup and Fresh Lime juice. Simply perfection
MichelleAugust 16, 2014Beside the obvious meaty delights, get a whiskey and the mushroom side. Great compliments to the smokey meats!
Steve LeVineNovember 13, 2021Everything here seems to be great from the service to the food. Just beware- when it’s crowded (like Friday night) it can be extremely loud.
Caroline SchulweisAugust 19, 2014Go big or go home! Beet salad, Black Label Burger, and Chocolate Soufflé pictured below.
Jess LeungNovember 21, 2012The beef patty on the Black Label burger is the real star here with simple flavors that are perfectly cooked to be medium rare. (preferably)
The strip steak is often overlooked in favor of the black label burger or cote de boeuf but it's phenomenal! Follow up with one of the delightful souffles
Kathryn DApril 17, 2017Iconic spot and you can't go wrong with any options. For brunch, start with French toast.
Black label burger. Don’t read anything else on the menu. Their mezcal cocktails are pretty solid as well.
sit at the bar on a cold night with a bottle of Gigondas, some steak frites & make new friends...
Halstead PropertyOctober 27, 2011Keith McNally’s hotspot is famous for its Black Label burger but go against the fad and try the Bone Marrow, scary name but the caramelized shallots/crostini accompaniments make this dish perfect
Nancy KangAugust 20, 2013The Black Label burger was amazing. A tad on the salty side, but the cooked onions helped balance that out.
Garett PressAugust 10, 2014Obviously the burger. The marrow is a pretty solid start too if you want to go full carnivore.
Tom HalleranMay 17, 2015Came for drinks, must return for dinner. This authentic New York saloon is Old School in a good way. They don't make 'em like this anymore.
Basheer BergusAugust 11, 2017Bone Marrow was incredible - the steak for two is one of the best steaks I've ever had!
Michelin Travel & LifestyleDecember 2, 2013Grilled meats are always high quality, like the excellent bone-in New York strip steak. Order a side of pommes Anna. – Green Guide Editor
Josue EvillaSeptember 29, 2016Quite possibly the best meat in the city, from their Burger to their Bone-in Strip. Pricey, but worth it!- drew tarvinMay 19, 2015Go when seating opens at 5:30 p.m., you have a good chance of getting a table even without a reservation. The Black Label burger is good but not worth $25 or better than Shake Shack.
Vanessa GatlinJanuary 30, 2014Harper's Bazaar says, "The black label is one of our favorite burgers in the city, and there's really nothing like camping out at the bar for hours."
VicNovember 1, 2016Minetta Tavern is a classic and the Black Label Burger is one of the best burgers in New York.
Winson WongFebruary 2, 2015I personally think the black label burger is only ok. The beef patty was succulent and well-cooked but lacked flavor apart from the caramelized onion which was too sweet. The brioche buns were average
Nick TurbideMay 7, 2017The burger is really something to prize. But there is so much more here to enjoy, dreamy pastas should be on your radar too
Natalie PaulMarch 30, 2013Black label burger was absolutely amazing BUT the tables layout is horrible. Too close to my neighbors and its like I'm part of their conversations. Go with a group of 4 and get your own table.
Arnon ShimoniNovember 26, 2016Pretty sure this is the best burger in town. Skip the sides and starters and get yourself a black label burger.
Yoni ZloczewskiDecember 20, 2015It's all about the ambience here just a cool spot to chill by the bar and maybe go nuts on $140 steak
Travel ChannelNovember 15, 2011Anthony Bourdain believes they serve the best burger in New York City, but “getting in is a challenge – try early or late.”
This place, which has operated since 1936 and looks like it, is the best in the city for a hamburger (sandwich).
Alex FishJune 15, 2015Black label burger is worth the hype. Get a side of bone marrow to really make the meal amazing
Staff PicksDecember 6, 2016Minetta Tavern was one of the more wished for places throughout 2015’s I Want Somewhere holiday campaign. Where’s your somewhere? Enter to win a bucket list experience. Read more- Can't get in for dinner? Make a reservation for brunch instead, where you can have poached eggs and salmon over latkes, shirred eggs with truffle shavings, crispy thick-cut bacon, and a Bloody Mary.
The "doneness" scale at Minetta: Medium is medium rare and rare is, well, just really rare.
David ChungMarch 31, 2012Black Label is packed with flavor.. ain't a burger you breathe in or you'll miss all the flavor. Savor it slowly. Too price-y though at $26.Cote de Beouff IMHO best flavor from a steak in NY.
Erik Adell HellströmAugust 7, 2014The burger is to die for. And the fries complement it. The lemonade is one of the best I have had.
Young to PublishingSeptember 11, 2011Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound, Eugene O'Neill, E. E. Cummings, Dylan Thomas, and Joe Gould put in time at this 1937 bar notable for its murals of Village sights and scenes covering the inside walls.
SPQRAugust 13, 2014Really cool ambiance... Feels like your stepping back into the '20s. Burger is in the top 5 in the city.
Paul CunninghamJuly 17, 2016Had both the Minetta and the Black Label burgers. Save yourself some money and get the cheaper one; I thought it was just as good.- The Tastes that Make the CityJanuary 28, 2015The black label burger is the best burger in NYC, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: NYC Edition."
