The View at Battery Park Beer Garten

The atmosphere really good and scenic. The server was patient and friendly. However she didn’t check the dishes before giving us a dirty glass of water. The crispy calamari with the banana peppers was ok including the mustard style sauce that came with it. The shrimp linguine was undercooked and seasoned-less however the presentation was good. The host was ok but unwelcoming. No smiles, no excitement. The food was definitely overpriced. The fish and chip was ridiculous for the sized verses the price. The fish tasted like it was cooked in old oil. One of the four of us didn’t eat after getting a dirty glass because it made us question if we were being served with dirty dishes and clean food. For a popular area it could’ve been better. We wouldn’t come here again.

I just had to share what an incredible experience I had here. As a visiting physician caring for COVID patients, this turned out to be the best dining experience I've had in the city. The ambiance and view were stunning, and the drinks were both creative and refreshing. The food was absolutely delicious! What truly stood out, though, was the amazing service. Brian, my server, was so knowledgeable and attentive—he really made the meal special. Even Michael, the general manager, stopped by to check in on me a few times throughout the evening. Despite the restaurant hosting two large parties, I never felt overlooked. In fact, I felt more cared for than at any other place I’ve been to. Everything about this spot was perfect. It’s officially my new favorite place in NYC! A big thank you to Michael and Brian for making the night unforgettable.

The ambiance and location paired with one of the remaining beautiful days of summer are the only reasons this place was lovely. (I don't hold the construction that blocked the gorgeous sunset against them. The City is always improving.) And that's where the positive ends. Unfortunately, the service was s-l-o-w. It was almost as if the place didn't get more staff to handle the wedding. The host didn't remember that one of us was a guest, so she sent us to the "public" restroom. The salmon was greasy; more like oil with salmon than the reverse. My Americano had to be redone 3 times: brown water, warm brown water, hot reused grounds. I gave up and said it was good. The server who made it (yup) was super polite, obviously trying his best, and simply didn't know better. They didn't charge us for it. In a line, come for the view; eat and drink elsewhere.

Nice location all the way around, with a view of Battery Park, World Trade Center and the Statue of Liberty across the water. Good food and the wine was lovely. Really recommend this restaurant, it definitely lives up to its name!

Food was good. I ordered the halibut with fingerling potatoes and green beans. My boyfriend ordered the streak with mashed potatoes and asparagus with avocado on the side. My fish was over cooked and dry. Since we were in a rush I didn’t send it back. The green beans were sent 5 minutes after the meal but was very good. The potatoes needed salt but once added was good. My boyfriend enjoyed his steak and potatoes.

Beautiful venue. My company just had its summer party there. Open bar. Lots of food and people carrying trays of items. Fantastic views of Ellis island, the statue of liberty, governors island, and the bay. Very nice. Right on the water. Lots of trees, and embedded in a park, so very green surroundings. Beautiful place.

2 Beers + 2 Pretzels + tip + ridiculous credit card surcharge 3% = $35.00 ( Lose a star for surcharge, lets split it at 1.5% then)! Beers were nothing special Stella since they were out of the other local options and the pretzels were good for the size and value. Service was average but what do you expect from kids on a summer job. I don't find the need to return unless there are no other options near by. Was not even a view!

Went at a rather slow time of the day, about 345pm. Server was a bit slower, but I understand it’s between busy times so this was expected. She was very nice though once she made it over. I was there with my 1 year old son and she went out of the way to help me. Ordered the chicken plate and it did not disappoint! Chicken was cooked absolutely perfect and had great flavor. Prepared like a 5 star dish at a reasonable price for being at the Battery. I would highly recommend!
