"Where is the highest outdoor observatory deck in the western hemisphere? If you guessed The Edge at Hudson Yards, you win. And your prize? Dinner at Peak, the next-door restaurant with jaw-dropping views over lower Manhattan and New Jersey." - Kevin Chau
"Pop quiz time. Where is the highest outdoor observatory deck in the western hemisphere? If you guessed The Edge at Hudson Yards, you win. And your prize? Dinner at Peak, the next-door restaurant with jaw-dropping views over lower Manhattan and New Jersey. This spot stands above the competition in this high-end complex, and while the crowd of mostly tourists and business types is largely here for those views, the food is far from a concession. Kick things off with dishes like the beef tartare mixed with smoked aioli and hit with bit of soy and ginger, then covered with thin, crispy sunchoke chips. Squares of nicely seared tuna set in a tahini-herb oil with shaved broccoli make for a refreshing main dish. Unsurprisingly, the prices skew high." - Michelin Inspector
"The wall of sky you see in front of you while dining and drinking at Peak is truly something. If you’re looking for one of the city’s best views, this New American restaurant is worth the elevated prices. You’ll get your usual corporate card fare here—foie gras, duck, lobster. The cooking isn’t particularly imaginative, but plates of steak tartare covered in elegant purple potato petals and a signature egg-shaped dessert covered in edible gold match the luxe environment. Peak is a reliable choice for when you need a view that'll impress out-of-towners or an important client. " - Neha Talreja, Kenny Yang, Carina Finn Koeppicus
"The wall of sky you see in front of you when you eat and drink at Peak is truly something. It's one of the best views in the city. So if that's what you're looking for, this place is worth it. The food is just as attractive as the view, and it's all cooked nicely—although the New American flavors are ultimately pretty basic. It's not the most imaginative cooking, but the interesting plating fits the high-end experience. The crowd mostly consists of people who work in the area, with a subset that stays after dinner for bottle service at the attached bar Peekaboo. Whether or not that includes you, Peak is a good choice for when you need a view that'll impress an important client." - Neha Talreja, Bryan Kim, Carina Finn Koeppicus, Hannah Albertine
