[ "Corner Bistro, despite the hoopla and critical praise, is nothing more than a burger joint with long lines." ]

[ "I was thinking I am gonna have a nice dinner in that place that a friend of mine recommended to me , but beside the expensive prices that it has was nothing more." ]

[ "Taci then moved to NYU, to a space as warm as an igloo, with an equally cold atmosphere, an attempt at a more upscale menu, and with all the charm of a pizza joint." ]

[ "After all that, the waiter tried to backpedal saying its too hard to time the cooking of miso soup with the sushi bar offerings." ]

[ "Good atmosphere, the service is so-so and there is a long wait if you don't have reservations." ]

[ "There was only one server on duty and we waited a while for menus." ]

[ "Evening started out nice w/ complimentary glass of champagne, but turned sour as mussels were extremely overcooked, steak came in kid size portion smothered with sauce and owner recommended a wine special off the standard wine menu that was double the price of the most expensive bottle but made no effort to describe the wine as extremely special or significantly more expensive that what they typically serve." ]

[ "The place is not fancy, but their food is wonderful." ]

[ "Aside from the fact the maitre de claimed the dining room was 'full', we were seated at a great table overlooking the lobby of the hotel and ordered the 5 course tasting menu." ]

[ "I've heard such wonderful things about Pluck U and had the pleasure of trying their infamous chicken while having learned a few things: 1) rushed service 2) limited menu 3) semi-reasonable 4) overly popular." ]

[ "nice and cozy place but the soup was cold, the pizza was cold." ]

[ "The Food There's a trimmed-down version of the regular Blue Ribbon menu--all manner of sandwiches, and a solid selection of American main courses--but the real attraction is the vast, well-edited range of cheese, fish and vegetable portions (goodies like foie gras terrine aside, the meat selections are disappointingly indistinct)." ]

[ "Still, after all the fuss, the food makes you forget about the wait." ]

[ "The wait staff was attentive without being overbearing, and our waiter gave thoughtful advice on dishes that would be suitable for the children." ]

[ "The food is great and I found it to be fresh and the prices are below to average compared to other Greek Restaurants." ]

[ "Once we eventaully got seated (all tables are practically on top of each other), we were hustled through our meal by a waitstaff that clearly knows how quickly they need to turn the table over." ]

[ "I went for dinner at Lucy the other night with five friends and it was the best experience I've had in a long time." ]

[ "When we were finally seated about half an hour after my reservation, the waitress took her time taking our order." ]

[ "The only apparent flavor in any of the dishes was heat, and a table of four gourmands left at least half of our meals on our plates." ]
