Restaurants near Dumbo

Cecconi’s DUMBO was everything we hoped it would be. We sat outside in the rain overlooking the Manhattan skyline, and somehow it made the morning even more romantic. It was exactly the kind of breakfast experience I had been hoping for. The staff were exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we arrived. The food was outstanding. The eggs arrabbiata were packed with flavor, the hot cakes were perfectly light and indulgent, and the roasted potatoes were, without question, the best I’ve had anywhere in NYC. Even the coffee was excellent. Between the spectacular view, incredible food, and outstanding service, this was one of the best meals we’ve had in New York. We’ll be back the next time we’re looking for a truly special brunch.

Our dining experience at ABC Kitchen was exceptional from beginning to end. The food was fresh, beautifully prepared, and artfully plated. Every dish was memorable, but the peeky-toe crab toast, roasted broccoli with pistachios, pork confit tacos, and roasted cauliflower were absolute standouts. What made the evening unforgettable, however, was the staff. This was, without question, the best customer service I have ever experienced in a restaurant. My daughter has celiac disease and is dairy free, and the team took extraordinary care to ensure every dish met her dietary needs. They were knowledgeable, attentive, and checked in often to make sure everything was perfect. Everyone was genuinely warm and personable. We felt less like customers and more like guests in the company of friends. That level of hospitality is rare and made an already wonderful meal even more special!

Our waitress was wonderful!! Very informative and attentive. Only negative is the Margherita Pizza was less than average. It needs fresh basil AFTWR cooking and more sauce. The arugula salad was great!

Consistently good food, friendly efficient staff. We love the Jazz Jams on select Wed evenings. Adds extra energy and a unique experience.

Loved everything about this restaurant. I forgot my anniversary and to make up for it I took my BF here, and he loved it… instantly forgiven. It’s VERY romantic.
