Bin 5

We were a party of six and it was great friends and great food at all around. I think we tried a little of everything on the menu. We went did it family style and shared and sampled all the different appys and entrees. Don't forget the dessert! I'll let the pics do the talking! Parking in the area can be a challenge at times but it's Staten Island for ya.

Wow this restaurant in Staten Island is a gem. The food and service was amazing! We tried the pork belly, scollops, roasted cauliflower and chicken Marsala which were all superb. Danny and the staff were excellent. We had a wonderful experience and we will definitely come back! We highly recommend this restaurant.

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Bin 5 and I highly recommend that everyone reading this drop what they are doing and immediately make a reservation here. I had wanted to go for a while and never made the time but I am so glad that I finally did. Every employee we spoke with was kind, attentive, and happy to answer any questions we had. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated and feels cozy in a modern way. Every single dish that we ordered was divine, including the bread we were given in the beginning of our meal. The meatball small plate was out of this world delicious. I wish I had some right now. My family still raves about them. I also ordered the heirloom tomato salad and thoroughly enjoyed it (I've tried to copy it at home and it's never as good). My father loved his grilled salmon, especially the beurre blanc sauce, and my mother and I really enjoyed our pappardelle bolognese. Everything tasted wonderful and fresh. We also ordered the berries and cream dessert which was great and the star of the show the pistachio walnut cake. That cake was so amazing that I will never forget it. I'll absolutely be back to try some more items and order the meatballs and pistachio walnut cake again! Just a wonderful experience all around.

This is a must go spot. Today was the 1st time my wife and I went here and this will be our new spot. Food was delicious 10 out of 10 and I am a very picky eater. If I had one complaint which is really not a complaint, I would ask for a little bit more sauce and or gravy with the meals other than that 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩. The drink with the duck is the Tony Soprano ♥ ❤❤❤

I wanted so badly to love my experience at the restaurant last night, for Valentine's day, however unfortunately I did not. Keeping in mind that the only other time I had been to bin 5 was for my girlfriend's birthday brunch, where we had 15 people, the service tonight compared to that afternoon was abysmal. About 15-20 mins after being seated the owner came over to ask if anyone had taken our drink order, to which we replied no and he promptly took it, which didn't bother me one bit as we had just sat down and were getting settled in and talking. About 20 minutes later our server, cheerful and attentive, took our order... And that was the last we had seen of her for the rest of our over two hour experience. No repeat drink orders, aside from someone who came over to clean our table and confirm our dessert order, no "how's your meal going" (which mind you the surrounding tables were getting by our "cheerful and attentive" server), and no real service except by the kitchen staff who had brought out our food, and the bartender who brought us our drinks. I asked for my food to be wrapped up, as after the initial two courses I was very full, and when I got home I had unpacked the wrong food. Food from another table, that someone else was eating and picking at. I regret to write this review, as I know the owner is one of the most attentive people to his guests on any other night, and the food was absolutely out of this world, but as my girlfriend and I sat at the table, with empty dessert plates and cups in front of us, for over 30 minutes before we finally waved over the waitress for the bill only to be sent home with the wrong food I felt the need to write something. I wouldn't be so burned if I didn't witness our surrounding tables getting repeat drink orders and attentive service. I think for the price I just expected more.

Immediately felt a small cozy vibe. Greeted at the door with warm smiles by guy with beard and plaid shirt. Super nice guy. The place felt and looked clean. Cool minimal art on the wall. The side we were on - had bookshelves with cookbooks and wines. Music was playing in the background: Billy Joel, Queen and Creedence Clearwater Revival. The staff was excellent in being attentive, clear communication, and not to the point of asking questions every moment. We order the tomato bisque soup and it was a hit. We also order Beet Salad, meatballs, and charred carrots. Beet salad was so refreshing and delicious. Meatballs were served in a pasta like porridge, but good. The carrots were crispy and yet filling. For dessert we order Rainbow cookie ice cream and that was an explosion of yumminess. The bathroom was super clean and has some cool art installations. A bit pricey, but worth every dollar!

So today is my first time at Bin 5. I heard about this place but never had a chance to come. It was an off day so I was able to walk in. Typically I hear you should call for reservations. When I arrived the waitress greeted me and sat me down. This is a really cozy place for a date night. Anywayyy so let start with the drinks, delicious!!! The bartender is amazing. He knows his stuff. I ordered the shrimp and zucchini pasta which was also delicious. The servings are pretty good which match the prices. I also ordered a side of spinach which didn’t need any salt or pepper. So that means it was good! While I was there the owner walked in and he seemed pretty friendly. I immediately saw him helping people and cleaning up tables. True signs of a good leader! I can honestly say that Bin 5 is the best restaurant on Bay Street and perhaps in the area! And trust I’ve been to them all! Bin 5 worth the visit for sure!

Delicious food, attentive and personable waitstaff, and of course wonderful choices for wine. I had seared sea scallops with portobello mushrooms with a rich cream sauce, hamachi crudo, and pan seared branzino over risotto with peas. It was an enjoyable and well paced meal that wasn't hurried, or too slow. I was too full for dessert but the list of selections sounded promising.
