I read all the mixed reviews, so I came to 3 Hens not expecting too much. I am glad I did, because I was thoroughly impressed.
Yes the cafe is a bare-bones little Murray Hill eatery. Yes they are still trying to figure out exactly who they are. Yes…More »

Amazing, just amazing. The owner and servers are so kind...excellent service. The food: Fantastico! We had the salmon, a Penne pasta with white sauce and bacon, a linguine-like seafood pasta with red sauce, and salads (the pear/arugula/goats cheese…More »

After trying several more jewish delis throughout the city....2nd Ave still takes the cake. And no, I am not biased because I literally live upstairs from the deli. Congrats neighbors :)
Great Deli,.....I am from San Francisco, and I have never in my life seen such a beautiful "deli"!… Read more »

Nomado is literally across the street from my house, and I have been a big fan of their take out (or dine in...amusing manager and friendly staff).
Fresh fish, they don't ever disappoint me. I love their Blue Ocean Roll. So yummy! They have a good…More »

Brunch Review:
I am hesitant to review the little gem, because it is so small and I don't want anyone to know about it! I've never had to wait for one of their (15 maybe?) tables because it's a local treasure and has yet to be discovered by the…More »

You know what I love about Oren's? Everything.
-Pastries from Balthazar
-Fresh (and many different assortments) of coffee beans
-Very VERY yummy teas (I opt for the iced peach tea...so delish and refreshing, especially when hung over)
-Somewhat-friendly…More »

I frequent La Giara for Brunch/Lunch. Why? Many reasons:
1. Because of their prices. Where else can you get a BOTTOMLESS MIMOSA in Manhattan for under 7 bucks? Too good to be true? Well, it's not. All entrees are roughly $9, and you get a full,…More »

One of my favorite places in my neighborhood. The Gansevoort alone has given PAS such a facelift. I am so pleased to find that Asellina has continually impressed me and religiously provided excellent food and service. Every time I've dined here, I…More »

I live directly across the street from this Thai spot, and when they opened I couldn't be more thrilled.
Their Pineapple fried rice, Drunk Man noodles, Se-Ew noodles and Pad Thai are all great. Right from the start I was a fan. The place does take-out…More »

Cask is an Edison Bulb lit, casual restaurant that makes you feel like you stepped back into the era of prohibition with a flair of trend. They have a pretty good selection of beers on tap, and bring in the locals as well. I believe they have 2…More »
I REALLY hate to do this, because Vezzo delivers man...their pizza is VERY good.
I ordered Vezzo for our office (about 10 pies and a salad), the day before to give them time to prep. I called a half hour before our delievery was due to confirm and…More »

I am a huge fan of Banc and the people that work there. It's so nice to finally have a nice establishment in Murray Hill that doesn't scream "frat bar" and smell like vomit. This place not only has good food that would make a great "first date" but…More »

Breakfast & Brunch

So, after living next to Penelope's for almost a year, and coming here multiple Sundays, the staff still doesn't remember me. I know...that's a bit pretentious and vain, but I mean...I am all about customer service.
I do like their food, and have…More »

Dry Cleaning & Laundry

This is the 3rd New Absolute Laundry to open (their other location is located on Lex and 28th) in Murray Hill. They don't do in house dry cleaning (thus the docked star) but their wash and fold service is great and customizable. I'm picky with my…More »

Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Midtown East, Murray Hill, Kips Bay
We order take out from here often and haven't had any issues. Like your standard Chinese restaurant, I am sure they use MSG as the food is quite savory and tasty. The only problem is, I am usually pretty nauseous after consuming their food. Now, I…More »
Great little place that just opened up across the street. Now, I would normally give a casual Italian restaurant like this 4 stars, as I feel 5 star dining is a calibur like Per Se or Eleven Madison, but the food was just so delicious. I guarantee,…More »
