It was incredible! First, the views are incredible. It’s why I booked it in the first place but pics don’t do it justice. I was in NYC for my mom’s 62nd birthday and it was her first time in NYC, no one made it special except Manhatta. 4 different people told her Happy Birthday + her name before we even got to the table. They also had a handwritten card for her. Staff was knowledgable & personable. They very clearly love their jobs & the restaurant does not do service, they do better! They show true hospitality.

Everything was and always is perfect. The restaurant is run like a well oiled machine so the service is outstanding with happy servers. Will was perfect last night. The food is always excellent which is why the restaurant is booked every night. The noise level is festive and still so comfortable to have a conversation. Finally, it’s very NY. The patrons are from the neighborhood, this is not a tourist spot.

    Spectacular every time. Highlights of this visit were the 40 oz ribeye, the campo rosso chicories, cranberry beans, and, of course, the chocolate trifle for dessert. There's never a bad, or even a remotely disappointing bite. It's also so refreshing to dine somewhere that genuinely cares about offering thoughtful, balanced, surprising, and fun desserts. This was my fourth visit this year (Chambers is becoming a go-to spot for milestones and celebrations), and somehow the bread got even more perfect? A higher rise, a nuttier, toastier flavor from the sesame. A simple offering executed perfectly.
