My partner and I ended up going to The Clocktower after seeing an Instagram video about the top new places to visit in New York City. We decided to go based purely on how stunning the restaurant looked, and I’m so glad we did.
When I arrived, it was a total surprise to realize The Clocktower is actually the restaurant inside the world-famous EDITION Hotel in New York. The atmosphere felt incredibly “New Yorker” in the best way. It has a classic, old-fashioned vibe with beautiful portraits lining the walls, giving it a warm, sophisticated, timeless feel.
The service was truly five stars. Absolutely amazing from start to finish.
We ordered several appetizers, main dishes, and desserts, and everything was delicious and notable. The halibut was honestly to die for, one of the best I’ve ever had. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the artichoke green sauce was next level. We also ordered the shepherd’s pie, which was rich, comforting, and extremely flavorful.
For dessert, we tried multiple options, and the standout for me was the pudding. It was seriously really, really, really good. The drinks were excellent as well, perfectly crafted and very high quality.
Overall, this was such a memorable experience. It’s one of those places I will absolutely come back to, and it’s also the kind of restaurant I’d bring friends visiting New York to impress them.
Highly recommended.
