Upland

First time here and WOW. The server, Joel was super attentive and nice, I think my water was refilled 9 times, new plates/silverware with each course, very impressed with the service. The food was outstanding, starting with the complimentary bread, so soft and amazing butter. Then the burrata, margarita pizza, cacio &peppe and rigatoni for our table, all so tasty and you can tell it’s made with fresh ingredients and homemade pasta! We didn’t leave a crumb behind. We got the olive oil cake too and they put a candle in it for my bday. To top it off, the atmosphere was intimate with lovely booths yet lively! Can’t wait to return!

We were so excited to try this restaurant after seeing its aesthetic interior on our Instagram feed. The food was just as good and the flavors of each dish were really well-balanced. We tried the pappardelle and the salmon. ALSO there's free bread. It was the fluffiest ever and we devoured the loaf. I was surprised that the miso caramel cheesecake had a thick drizzle of caramel but was somehow not too sweet, and the olive oil cake was also amazing.

Busy active Resturant with mix of regular dinners and business lunch crowd. Buzzing but still comfortable level to talk. Food came out in a timely manner, staff was very accommodating and attentive. Group of 7 and we all truly enjoyed our lunch. Will be back!

*UPDATE* Upland reached out and apologized for everything. They remedied the situation and invited me back to try again. I live in Canada but have a trip to NYC coming up again soon. I plan to come by and give them a try again. Will update again once I give them another try. This restaurant was highly recommended to me and I was excited to try it. We arrived before opening and patiently waited until they opened. The hostess was Incredibly rude and snooty when I informed her that I didn’t have a reservation. She told me if we promised to be quick she could seat us. Which we were. When we were seated the original waiter gave us the dinner menus. After we received our drinks the new waitress realized the mistake and brought us the lunch menu. She was very flippant, wasn’t informative and barely came to the table. The actual food was a 5/10. The portions were tiny. The noodles weren’t even al dente and the sauce was barely flavourful. There’s much better places in NYC than upland.

Had the most amazing dinner here the other night! I haven’t stopped thinking about it. Everything was so delicious and the servers were fantastic! 10/10 all round

Excellent food and service. The food had flavor. In fact, it was so good that my pictures are half eaten before I even got the chance to take a picture. I would definitely go back. Make reservations as it gets packed for lunch.

It was a great time there with my friends. To be honest I expected more than we had from food and service. Unsmiling manager was touching our table twice or three times to pour the water, never told us Hello or asked something. Very comfortable seats and a lot of natural light. Basque cheesecake was very delicious, rest ok, not bad.

What a delightful experience! Came here for dinner on a Tuesday evening and it was absolutely amazing! The wait staff here were extremely attentive and ensured we had a great dining experience! Special shout out to Olive for making the experience that much better. The food was delicious, and we were able to try a nice range of different options. Ambience was really upscale and pleasant! Drinks were well made with a good variety of cocktails! Highly recommend! Thank you Olive and the upland team for an amazing experience.
