Haymarket

This place is tremendous. Innovative food, unique and exquisite tastes and debatably the best cocktail menu I’ve ever seen. As close to a 10/10 as a place gets for me

Great experience at Haymarket! This location needed a cool vibey spot to enjoy drinks and a nice meal after work. The ambiance and decor is great. Standout dishes include the cod fritters, grilled prawn, and heirloom tomato with pine nuts and grilled peach. The cocktails were particularly unique and tasty (I had the snake in the grass), and the mocha creme caramel was delicious! The service was super friendly, informed, and attentive!

AMAZING! A truly talented chef, whose culinary creativity sent my taste buds on a delightful whirlwind of unforgettable adventure! Everything we ordered was de-licious, the prawn was standout for me! I had viewed the cocktail menu before arriving and had my sights set on, Lucky Plum, wow with no exaggeration the best cocktail I have ever tasted! Highly recommend! The entire team at Haymarket are so knowledgeable about their craft, friendly and professional that it has made my trip to New York one to remember! Thank you😊

Great spot with a trendy vibe. The menu features a creative take on European-fresh cuisine, and everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful. Service was friendly and efficient, and the cocktails were a standout. Solid choice for dinner, drinks, or a casual business meal.

Had a girls night out and sat at the bar. The food, service and cocktails were all amazing. The prawn, salt cod fritters, tuna crudo and I have a martini kink cocktail were the standouts. 10/10 and much needed in the neighborhood.

Best new restaurant in NYC. The food is incredible and the vibes are so fun. Will be going back all the time!

WOW! the food, interior, atmosphere, service! Everything was on point! Great location too! We ordered the Caviar appetizer and the Dorado entree. Very tasty and the drinks were delicious! I am a sweet connoisseur and the Mango desert with the sprinkles on top was to die for! Chef India runs a tight ship! A great experience .. Thank You

Haymarket - WOW! I truly have not had this delightful of a meal all around in years in NYC, honestly. Usually there is something that can be better, but at Haymarket? No, everything was perfect. From the beautifully decorated and sexy interior to the friendly and accommodating staff throughout the experience. All details were thought of, down to the restrooms. Chef India has done an absolutely incredible job with every dish on the menu. Some stand outs: peri peri chicken, pita (made from scratch in house, obviously), bavette steak with duck fat potato wedges, cod fritters, the bibb salad… and the rotating menu of desserts is to die for! The flavor profiles of everything we had were insanely delicious, mind blowingly perfect with tons of depth. This meal was such a treat and unlike any other restaurant I’ve been to in the city. Haymarket is a must try, you will not regret it! there is also an upcoming cool space below the restaurant, can’t wait to see what that looks like after dinner service once it opens! cheers

It's rare to dine at a restaurant and fall in love with every single dish, but that's exactly what happened here. I'm already dreaming of my next visit! These are the dishes I can't stop thinking about: * Oxtail: This dish was life-changing. Must get. * Crudo: Often, crudo can feel like just a taste if you're sharing, but the portion here was more than substantial and the sauce is magical. * Grilled Prawn: Perfectly cooked with a crunchy kick from their incredible house-made chili crisp. I need this bottled at home. The prawn was cut into pieces so it is easy to eat. * Caviar and Duck Fat Frites: I'm not even a caviar fanatic, but these fries are delicious Even as someone who rarely drinks, I assumed the cocktails would be special considering the bar director's background. We tried the three cocktails from the "Tall & Crisp" section, and they absolutely delivered. He clearly has a talent for crafting perfectly balanced drinks. The Lucky Plum was a standout - so unique and refreshing, I've never had anything like it.

This is the next big thing. This past weekend, we celebrated my birthday here and it was not only the highlight of the night, but the highlight of my week. We did not have a bite of food that wasn't above par. The top dishes I would recommend are 1. Roast Half Chicken w/ peri peri, ranch, snow pea salad: A+ - the iconic staple of the menu, pictures, and table setting 2. Braised Oxtail w/ crispy cheddar potatoes adds sustenance and cheesy life to your table 3. The Grilled Prawn and Salt Cod Fritters - A. As travelers who recently returned from Portugal, this NYC establishment delivered high and above with the most authentic, best restaurants we visited in Lisbon and Porto We were seated by Alex who was enthusiastic and made us feel very welcomed. Serving us well were Roq and Chris who curated our beverages to a T with birthday specials. I am already looking forward to my next meal here. Keep it on your radar before it blows up. If it hasn't by the time I've finished this review

Very new spot that's still learning and improving! My friends and I went, and I was pretty happy to hear that a good restaurant would be in this neighborhood that's full of bars, pub food, and chains. The food was yummy with the standouts being the peri peri chicken (not its side salad though), the oxtail was incredible, the cod fritters were delightful, and even the corn orzo was a nice touch to offset some of the other dishes. Desserts weren't a standout but food and drinks were. Service was friendly and helpful in determining how much food to get. We also chatted with the owner after eating and he was so warm and receptive to feedback. I wouldn't mind returning! I imagine this becoming an incredible go-to spot for anyone that wants a slightly elevated experience and has to go to MSG or travel via Penn.

There are meals and then there are *dining experiences*. There are restaurants that need some time to work out the kinks upon first opening and then there are those that immediately shine. Haymarket is the latter in both cases. When I first read about Haymarket, my spidey senses (plus years of monitoring new openings) told me that it would be a formidable newcomer to the NYC dining scene, one that could quickly become one of those spots that is impossible to get a reservation at. Trying a new spot in its first couple days can be a crapshoot, but I had a feeling I would not regret taking the risk. And wow, did Haymarket deliver, exceeding expectations at every turn. The food, European with Caribbean influences, is singular and creative, sophisticated and refined, whimsical and quirky, and executed to perfection. Spots like Haymarket are why I remain devoted to the foodie life and for that I am so grateful. At 8:45 on a Saturday night, upon stepping into this beautiful, lively space, we were enthusiastically greeted by the host, clearly buzzing with excitement (and probably adrenaline). I had thought that the restaurant officially opened the night before, but the host told us that the night before was their soft opening for friends and family and that we were there for the first service open to everyone. A momentous occasion that was very cool to experience. As we settled in and opened the drink menu, we quickly realized that deliberations would be challenging here. Every cocktail was both intriguing and appealing. I started with the I Have A Martini Kink (vodka, vermouth, raspberry, lychee, lemongrass, szechuan) and my partner had the Hay Barbie (mezcal, aquavit, cachaça, beets, ginger, saffron). For our second round, I got The White Mirage (gin, bergamot, aromatized wine, aperitivo, vetiver) and my partner got the Lucky Plum (gin, umeboshi, fig leaf, coriander, soda). I have gone to a dizzying number of fancy cocktail bars in my life and I can say with certainty that the drinks here rival the very best that mixologists have to offer. They were all outstanding, but the Hay Barbie and The White Mirage were particularly astounding in their flavor profiles. True genius, true art. Food-wise, I think it's safe to say you can't go wrong. The menu is impeccably curated with an impressive range of preparations. Everything is designed for sharing, and you'd be silly not to try as much as possible here, an approach that sharing facilitates. Each dish showcases expert technique and artistry with flavors that are both astounding and harmonious. Eats, below: Tuna Crudo w/ aji amarillo, avocado, radish: A+ Light, fresh, with very thinly sliced avocado and radish and a glorious both of aji amarillo that had just a hint of spice. Bibb Salad w/ sour cream + onion, everything crumble: A+ Our server told us that each bite magically tasted like a sour cream and onion chip and that it did. The everything crumble was from potato chips made from scratch, which alone is impressive. It's on the smaller side as far as salads go, so order two if you're on the fence. Grilled Prawn w/ bouillabaisse, chili crisp: A++ Minds were starting to be blown at this point. The prawn was cooked to perfection and that chili crisp-bouillabaisse flavor/texture combo was just next level. Pan-Seared Dorade w/ spring potatoes, asparagus, anchoïade: A+ The sear on this fish was beautiful (Gordon Ramsay voice implied). The dish was bright and delicate, and I basically licked the plate clean because of how good the anchoïade was. Roast Half Chicken w/ peri peri, ranch, snow pea salad: A++ The signature dish here is this one-of-a-kind peri peri chicken, as visually enticing as it is delicious. Accompanied by a cute little salad served in turquoise ceramic chicken (let that sink in for a second...and peep the photo). The first bite left me speechless. Our incredible meal was made even better by the great service, which is always appreciated but was particularly impressive on this night given that Haymarket just opened and you never know how a concept may take on a life of its own when fully manifested. Everyone working here was friendly, attentive, efficient, and helpful. As a young foodie in training, anytime I went to a great restaurant, I I'd ask my parents with some degree of desperation if they could promise that we'd return, my brain incapable of accepting the possibility that I may never have such an experience again. I found myself doing the same thing here with my partner, despite the fact that I am now, in fact, an adult with autonomy who doesn't need permission for such things. I suppose this experience activated a childlike part of me, which is a testament to the chef and operations staff, who created an experience that evokes a sense of play, a seriously great venture that does not take itself too seriously.

I haven't been this excited about a new restaurant since forever. All I know is that the chef is from London and has Caribbean heritage. The food is bold, adventurous and packed with flavor. Our server described the linguine dish as the encompassing saltwater smell of the ocean as you walk towards it, and it was exactly that! But with a beautiful citrus note cutting through it. The signature peri-peri chicken was great, and both desserts were incredible. The bar absolutely matched the food in terms of flavor and balance. We loved the Sol y Playa and I Have a Martini Kink. Such exciting combinations! I will be back!

The food here is absolutely top notch. The oxtail and prawns were fantastic. The service was probably the best part about the Haymarket though. 10/10 would recommend.

Few restaurants in town can rival what happens here. Staff attention exceeds what you'd expect. Their food selection is excellent too. What impresses immediately is how customers are valued! Relish every flavor!

I would highly recommend Haymarket. Where do I begin. From the ambience to the staff and of course the food. You will not be disappointed. The food is amazing. Every dish that I tried was made to perfection. I'm looking forward to returning very soon. Thank you for making my birthday a memorable one.

Haymarket is quite simply excellent!!! From its innovative food to the very helpful staff and the atmosphere. Our server was Jamie who was very friendly and walked us through the menu options since we wanted to share. The manager was wonderful as well. Thank you and we'll be back!!

Just celebrated my birthday dinner here and probably one of my favorite restaurants in nyc already! Food was DELICIOUS everything was so unique. But the service put it over the top! Our table was in a rush, and the host and wait staff were so accommodating. Also gorgeous restaurant. Overall 12/10!
