Landmark watering hole with Italian fare. Vintage bar, in continuous operation since 1864, serving burgers & Italian fare.
You can feel the fantastic energy from the second that you open the door and walk into this historic establishment. My wife and I loved this place! Great staff.....especially our waitress Larissa! She was absolutely amazing! Super personable and helpful. A ROCK STAR! It was obvious that she loved what she does and is proud to work at this great restaurant! We enjoyed the energy and crowd noise around the bar; but appreciated the fact that the dining area was quiet enough to have a reasonable conversation without shouting over the noise. You can feel the history of this place....lots of pictures and really cool decor. The cocktails were delicious and so was the burger, salad and dessert that we ordered. Such a perfect experience. We are definitely coming back and definitely asking for Larissa!
There's a lot of open seats outside the restaurant, so we were able to bring our dog in to eat alongside us! Tables were clean and the staff were very friendly to our pup even if she did bark at them sometimes... (sorry waiters!) They were also kind enough to give her a water bowl, since it was a little warm outside. ? My pup recommends the calamari and the steak if you ever want to eat here! Will definitely go again in the future :)
One of the oldest taverns in Manhattan, though like others it claims top status. The tavern is notable for its frequent visits by author O. Henry, a fact which is proudly displayed on the awnings. We had a few beers standing at the bar. A very young and lively crowd on a Saturday evening. Friendly people. Beautifully appointed interior with a gorgeous bar facade. Would definitely recommend if you are a history buff exploring New York City.
Good music and friendly staffs. The bar/restaurant has an awesome Christmas/holiday light decoration. I and my gf went on Wed and went in without a line. Plus we got a good space to dance with good music The drink is reasonable Gotta try the foods next date night
Big YES to Pete's Tavern. Just left this venue for a holiday get together with my girls, and it's so beautiful! The decorations, the music, so much variety on the menu. The pastas were delicious and so were the drinks! Staff was excellent, it was busy but everyone was in a great mood. I loved the energy here. Definitely top service, everyone is loving my photos from here. So glad Pete's is around to give the holiday cheer, i will be back for sure!
Definitely recommend visiting at Christmas time!! The atmosphere puts you in the holiday mood right away. Muled wine was superb. Highly recommend! The apple crisp was fantastic!
I stopped by in December and it was super crowded in the bar area. However, we were seated in the dinning area pretty quick. I had the grilled ahi, which was a little dry. Overall, it was a magical experience because of all the holiday decorations.
As a Seinfeld fan, it was truly awesome to come here. The food was fine. It’s not anything incredible, but the atmosphere and service are what make this place great. We truly enjoyed it and hope to come again.
