Ribot

Absolutely delicious! The interior of the restaurant is the romantic and you feel you have escaped city life and are in another place. My friend and I had the 3 course meal with the parmigiano reggiano, the salmone al cedro and the beef

Pros: service,food,value

So far I've only had appetizers, but they are fantastic. Try the goat cheese and fig bruchetta. The calamari was cooked perfectly, which is difficult to find.\r
The staff is very welcoming, attentive and friendly. I have a hard time

One weekday evening, a few of my clients and myself decided to dine at Ribot. As we entered the restaurant, the outside area was busy with happy hour folks, all of whom seemed to be enjoying themselves. The interior's decor was modern,

Pros: fine place to bring corporate clients, great service

Cons: due to small space on the floor level, noise can be an issue

Last night my husband and I visited Ribot upon a friend's recommendation. What a wonderful experience! It is a beautiful restaurant and we were seated promptly. We began with a chilled cucumber and yogurt soup, which was delicious and

Pros: amazing food, great service, ambience

I used to frequent this place last summer for the outdoor seating and drinks. I had eaten here a few times but was never that impressed. I had the opportunity to dine here again on saturday and it would appear as though a lot has

This is a beautiful looking restaurant, but we had the worst service we've ever had this weekend. After being seated, we ordered, and received bread and water, but after 45 minutes, as the restaurant was slowly emptying out, we still had

A friend recommended Ribot a few weeks ago, finally decided to give it a try. I'm a huge fan of italian cuisine, and I was thoroughly impressed. My sister ordered the Gnocchi di Ricotta, I'm not a fan of gnocchi or ricotta...but was

A group of my friends and I stopped in for drinks on Wednesday nite for martinis. A little disappointed at first to find out it was only well liquor. Uusally at free promotions like these drinks are made with the cheap stuff and tend to

Pros: bar hookups

Cons: cheap quality martinis

Ribot is a rare find - gorgeous atmosphere, friendly and attentive service, but most of all the food is delicious. The Italian food is some of the city's finest, particulary the gnocchi, as some other reviewers have also noted. Add a

I used to be a frequent customer of Fiamma Osteria, but Ribot has stolen Fiamma's spot. I read the reviews here and decided to check out this spot and it was good. It is a smaller, but not a really small restaurant with a great vibe to

Pros: Wasn't a long wait with no reservation.

A restaurant NOT to miss in NYC! The entire experience was superb! The attention to detail is remarkable. The menu offers many choices, it makes it difficult to choose just one. If you are a lover of mushrooms or chestnuts you must

Pros: Ambience, Food and Service

Great Italian. I'm usually very picky about my Italian food and this place is one of the bests. Great food in a non-pretentious atmosphere. Will definitely be returning soon.

The restuarant is a chic, cozy restaurant with nice booths and smaller tables. I have eaten there in the past as it is near my office and thought it was decent, but looks like a change in management has suited the menu and service quite

Pros: Food, Alcohol, Ambience.

Fantastic new meu with great variety to suit anyone's palate. The prices were quite nice, making it easy for me to become a regular there. The gnocchi di ricotta is to-die-for (and gnocchi has never been my thing). If you like truffles,

Pros: Variety of food and wine, Value, Ambience, Street parking availability

Was passing by last week and happened to see this restaurant. First I thought it was French but saw the menu outside and decided to give it a try. The waitress was very helpful with assisting us to choose a bottle of wine and our food.

Pros: Good food, Great service

Cons: Overbearing suit patrol

I had dinner here saturday night and it was great. The atmosphere was nice, but not as crowded as you would expect on a saturday night in new york. The gnocchi was all that it has been hyped up to be: light yet filling and full of

Pros: Food

Cons: neighborhood - not much going on saturday nights

Service: waiter was cold and indifferent, but he was polite at least.\r
Environment: VERY quiet, romantic, but it's definitely not a place that you want to chill for a relatively casual dinner.\r
Food: gnocchi was definitely not that

Pros: romantic environment

Cons: expensive, very quiet

I went here on a date last night. About 7pm- not too crowded- immediate seating. Really friendly, helpful service from the hostess to the bartender to the waiter to the busboy! Although the portions weren't enormous, it was the perfect

Pros: creative menu, great service

Cons: ---

I took my girlfriend here Friday night after reading some of the recent reviews, despite having walked by this place a hundred times and never even giving it a second look. We ordered the Gnocchi which was very good... light and

Pros: Gnocchi

Cons: Erratic service

I can count on ONE hand the number of places that serve gnocchi that taste like the real thing. Nothing pre-packaged here and just a wonderful, rustic and comforting plate of 'delish'!!!\r
\r
Highly recommend this restaurant and please,

I went there with my girlfriend last week after a recommendation from a friend. We were seated in the front of the restaurant, which gave us a beautiful view of the wine cellar. Our waiter was very helpful with helping us to choose our

My cousin and I brought our mother's to NYC for a girls birthday weekend. \r
Our concierge at The Benjamin recommended this place and I was pleasantly surprised. \r

Our server

I made a reservation for Saturday night dinner based upon the reviews I read here on citysearch. We got seated right away, however it took at least 10 minutes for our server to even acknowledge us. Quite surprising considering it was not

Pros: Great food, beautiful interior

Cons: Terrible service

My friend and I wanted to find a nice restaurant to catch up on things. She did a search, and found this place. When we first walked in, it was such a wonderful atmosphere. The lighting, the decor, everything about it was just

Cons: unreliable reservations, unorganized staff

We were two couples from Montréal visiting NY for Easter weekend. I was determined to find the "perfect" NY restaurant for our Saturday night. I spent countless hours sifting through restaurants on Citysearch. Ribot was the only

I found this restaurant on Citysearch, have passed the restaurant many times and since there were free martinis for the Ladies Wednesday night, my husband and I decided to try it. The space is remarkable and the food and service were

Pros: great atmosphere, delicious food , great service

Hidden at the corner of 48th and 3rd, one will easily miss this gem. Ribot is a hidden find in this city of food. Ribot serves classic italian dishes, noteably its mussel soup, tuna tartar and roasted porchetta. The elegant dinning room

it was my birthday saturday night and as a party of 18, we were treated extremely well from start to finish. we were seated at two separate tables adjacent to each other, and they came to check on us several times, offering another drink

Cons: pricey food and drink

What a wonderful way to kick in the new year! Instead of going to a over-crowded lounge, having dinner with some close friends was a great way to start 2006. It was very festive with hats, noise-makers, and confetti. At midnight, there

Pros: Food, Service

You could easily miss this restaurant just walking by. Summer time they have a large outdoor seating but in the winter months you really need to look for it. Ask for a table by the little alcove or a table by the window for a romantic

Pros: Delicious Dishes, Romantic Setting, Talented Chef

just a perfect place to have a business lunch. Their $25 prix fix is always changing. The homemade pastas are to die for. If you have not tried this place, you are really missing out. You be the judge.

Pros: Pastas, Great service

Had lunch at Ribot last week(11/18/05) was fantastic, checked out their Thanksgiving menu, sounds mouthwatering...and they actually have availability...check it out

We live across the street from Ribot and only finally made it there for dinner tonight. I am not sure why we waited so long as the food, ambience and service were wonderful. We would recommend a meal at Ribot to friends and family and

I was in Ribot for dinner soon after they opened and had an ok time. The food was not quite there although the service and decor compensated well.
I live and work in the area so I went back last week with a collegue. I must say that I was

from the hostess to the wait staff everyone was extremely professional and well

Pros: service, food, atmosphere

From the prompt service to the wonderful ambience to the great food, this place had it all. On top of that, the portions were hearty enough that we barely had any appetite left for dessert. I wouldn't recommend the restaurant for large

Pros: good portions, great ambience, attentive service

Cons: limited menu, metered parking

A few of my girlfriends and I were walking by Ribot and had to check it out. The terrace is stunning as welll as the ambience. I had the beef carpaccio and pasta. Ribot also has a menu prix fixe for luch for $25 and dinner (4 courses!) for

I was at Ribot last week and was very taken by the great atmosphere it exsudes! My guest and I felt very comfortable and at ease. One would think of it as a fancy, stuffy place at first glance, but it is quite the contrary! Elegant yet

Pros: friendly service, great menu, beautiful room

I went to Ribot with my girlfriend and had a womderful time!! The food-apparently, they had started a new menu that evening, was impeccable!! I had the pork loin, my girl friend had the red mullet...we love it!! CONGRADS to the chef!!

Pros: Friendly service, Great menu, Great ambience

Great food! My second time there and it has gotten better! Taking into consideration this place is like 3 months old, it has some kinks to work out, but definitely will be a star on the map...great terrace, removed from the street,

Pros: good food, parking lot next door, terrace

Cons: few kinks/new place

I did a team dinner (27 people) here within a week or two of them opening and they did a fabulous job of handling a large group. Unexpected people showed up and they accomodated them with ease. The portions were somewhat small, but were

Pros: Ambience, Great food, great service

Cons: Metered parking

With a dozen reviews within a month, all fairly similar, had to find out if this was friends & family, or really special. Truth is, the restaurant which is very attractive is average at best. The menu is extremely limited, with no one

Pros: ambience, outside seating

Cons: limited menu

I was told to check out Ribot for Lunch being told it was the new hotspot of Midtown. I brought along my commoradite to check out the new spot. And fell in love, the decor was flawless, Italian with a japanese flair. The food and service

Wanted to try this place. Good food and good service. the wait staff was on point with service and the food was very good.

oftentimes the midtown lunch scene is either too pretentious and expensive OR too casual and quick. not too many options in midtown for an affordable yet above average experience. So, RIBOT is a blessing. great lunch fixe menu. my
