We had a great experience at the Blue Dog Cookhouse and Bar for brunch! Augustine took great care of us! He was friendly, fast, and efficient at his job. Definitely a keeper! The owner Steve was so friendly and made us feel like family, not to mention, the food was delectable. The pumpkin stuffed french toast was melt in your mouth! Definitely recommend for a great meal, beautiful ambience, and friendly service while in NYC!

I went to Blue Dog NYC for an early dinner, and the experience was surprisingly warm and satisfying. One of the first things people ask is “Is Blue Dog good for dinner or mainly brunch?” —and honestly, their dinner options were just as solid as their daytime menu. The ambience was cozy and inviting, with a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to unwind.

Another common question is “Do you need reservations?” —and while they take walk-ins, having a reservation definitely helps during busy hours. The service was attentive and friendly, with staff who checked in often and made sure everything was running smoothly.

People also ask “How long does the food take?” —and in my experience, the dishes came out quickly and consistently. The food itself was flavorful, fresh, and well-prepared, especially the classic comfort dishes they’re known for. “Are the portions good?” —yes, generous without being overwhelming.

Another big FAQ is “Is it good for groups?” —it works, but it’s especially comfortable for small parties or casual meals. Overall, Blue Dog delivered great service, delicious food, a welcoming vibe, and a smooth early-dinner experience.

This place is such a hidden gem and has me wishing we could eat there everyday! We went twice while visiting NYC for Christmas. Once for dinner & once for breakfast. Everything was fabulous- from the service, the atmosphere, cocktails and of course the food. I am still dreaming of the short rib burger!! 10/10 highly recommend. We will definitely be back when we are back in the area.

So I’m kinda mixed on feelings with this place. The staff was very nice. Had no issues with them. The food itself was good. Both of my coffees were not hot, even after asking for the next one to be hot, it was warm at best. The area is VERY small. Almost uncomfortably small. You’re sitting on top of each other and the party next to you in the corner. It’s def not cheap, but it’s NYC lol . Also, don’t plan on paying with a credit card, their “system is down” and you have to pay cash or Venmo some person at the restaurant. Overall, it was a nice brunch but I honestly don’t think I’ll be returning

We gave our breakfast a 10/10. The Raspberry Pancakes and S’more Pancakes were to die for! The crab cakes were also delicious but in our opinion could have used a nice dipping sauce. Great vibrant atmosphere, with friendly and attentive staff. Overall, a great way to start the day (once you can find the entrance… we had to walk around a few times). Highly recommend.

Beautiful cozy restaurant close to Times Square. We got brunch and the food was excellent, honestly best eggs Benedict’s I’ve ever had. Don’t skip the pancakes. We got the cinnamon apple ones and they didn’t disappoint. The salted caramel coffee was great too. Highly recommend it!

The staff were so friendly and accommodating to my group of five. We had to wait on some of our group but were assured that we’d be seats and we in fact were seated fast.

The food was delicious and the portions were perfect. I had the crab cake Benedict and enjoyed every bite. The table also had a crispy French toast to share!

I got the notorious dog and it was fantastic, overall a great burger. The Patty itself was kind of bland lacking fundamental seasoning, but the dressing and everything else were able to compensate it and the Patty itself was cooked perfectly medium. Everything else was rather disappointing, especially the “signature” deviled eggs… There was nothing devilish about it, It was just a well cooked egg with some topping. I think the ambiance and the location are great, but I wonder if it’s worth a revisit.

Solid Midtown brunch spot. The caprese toast was fresh and light, and the burger was juicy with perfectly caramelized onions. Relaxed vibe, good for families.

Blue Dog brunch was FABULOUS! my daughter and I were in the city for a mother daughter trip— this was our favorite breakfast. My daughter has delightful pink raspberry pancakes, a side of eggs and juice (in a MASSIVE glass mug!). I had crab cake eggs benny and a latte. Staff were so kind, food was delicious and the cozy interior was so dang welcoming. We came early in the day on a Sunday and had the place practically to ourselves. It’s tucked away with a bit of an odd entrance (not super well marked)— but worth the effort to find! We stopped here en route to the American girl store.
