Great for a private event. Good catering incl very fresh raw bar, cheese station, hot food bar and yummy desserts. Professional and attentive staff. Plus view of rink and Xmas tree in Winter

TL;DR: Cheesecake! Visited NY one time a couple years ago and ate here. I remember service & food was great. But what has my mouth salivating to this day is the cheesecake. Best I've ever had!

This is not a cafe, but a very good restaurant. A little pricey which is expected given the location but also very good food and service. Get a table looking out onto the ice skating rink

This was a wonderful way to start our day. The blueberry pancakes were amazing, coffee was strong and so was the service! Perfect table near the ice rink prior to a nice morning on the ice.

The burger was good- thick, juicy, cooked medium just as ordered. The bacon aioli that came on the side was tasty- used it for dipping the fries.

Try to get seating near the Prometheus statue for a stunning view and ambiance during the evenings. The Pineapple Upside down cake with Dolce du Leche is a must try!

Consistently good, classic American food in a civilized setting. Slightly less pricey than other midtown restaurants in the same area, if you stick to the salads and appetizers. Friendly service, too.

Nice view of the ice rink and people skating and good views of the Christmas tree. We ate off the holiday prix-fixe menu and everything we ordered was great!

No better place to sit down and enjoy a nice meal with the family after a long day on your feet. Enjoy the scene inside and out and enjoy the company of good food and your family.

The Guacamole and fresh chips with a Corona are perfect for a late nite snack!

Pricy but you have to pay for the view! Good place to enjoy a drink and a warm summer night in New York City! 👍🇺🇸

For lunch, the chop salad is delicious (minus shrimp, plus cheese for vegetarians). Always great service and they're on OpenTable!

Awesome view of the Skating at Rock Center! The Lobster Bisque was perfect!

Great place to eat especially if someone else is paying at the rink level at Rock Center. Power breakfast scene. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Burguers, salads, and steaks. Beautiful place, nice view of Rockefeller Center.

If you are in NYC you just have to try cheese cake here! It's one of the best !!!!
Josh BerkowitzAugust 13, 2014
It's pricey, but it's posh. Worth it to get a cocktail or share a plate.
Joao Veloso JrAugust 16, 2015
It's nice, not as nice as they charge it. One of the best guacamoles I ever had. Spicy. Drinks are only ok

I love this place because of the atmosphere and the delicious NY Style Cheesecake. It's something really worth its price.
Minos DimisSeptember 6, 2015
Crazy cocktails and crowdy during the spring time! I loved this plaza! :-)
Robbie CApril 22, 2018
It’s ok from mid-April. No outside atmosphere- changing over from rink to garden. The service inside was very low and meal was pricey. Not too busy inside. Had to wait for drinks, entree and check
Michele Mozloom HojsackMarch 11, 2012
One of my favorites!! It's definitely a go back!! :). I recommend you go and I will go back!!! :)
TerrieJuly 22, 2013
Sitting by the fountain is the best. A little pricey but you pay for atmosphere.
Alena LaPerlaMay 15, 2015
Great place to have lunch with friends! V tasty food, good service
PeiNovember 6, 2013
Grab a high table if it's packed at lunchtime. Then again I can't really recommend it - $20 for ONE small lonely crab cake, $23 for a very average burger, and a server who was pretty useless at best.

The margaritas are AWESOME!! Great for a nice spring or summer day..
Chris OrihuelaJuly 11, 2015

Calvin MultanenMay 27, 2015
Kind of pricey but nice place to grab a bite or drink, especially when it's nice outside.
Kerem DereliApril 4, 2015
Nice to watch the ice skate rink and have something to eat or drink..
Harold HuertaJuly 15, 2013
Good for snack: guacamole, rock shrimp or wings.
NBC Nightly NewsAugust 16, 2011
In the winter grab a meal here for a good view of the famous Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree.
Pamela KotsaftisJuly 30, 2010
Friday night drink special- try the Sagatiba Brazilian Sunshine! Really refreshing to go with the great outdoor atmosphere.
Francisco Perez TorresMay 27, 2017

Get the PB&J float! Sounds weird, tastes delicious. Trust me.
WasanAugust 29, 2015
Food was OK, sofas next to the fountain were great, but they are first in first served.
MafyvogAugust 26, 2015
Brilliant cosmopolitan atmosphere
Eleni LeVanDecember 12, 2012
Very nice atmosphere but food not worth the price. Greens very very bitter and not impressed with portions... I'd go somewhere else next visit. Can't beat view of rockefeller center though.
Edwin ToureFebruary 7, 2016
I higltly recommend you the chocolate Chip Milkbutter Punpcakes #VeryDelicious #ILoveYouNYC
