I was thrilled to see ZZ’s Clam Bar and its space reopening.
The warm and welcoming atmosphere was perfect for a Friday night dinner. The attentive and courteous staff really created quite a personal experience.
The top-quality food, particularly the lobster, and drinks are worth the premium price on a somewhat limited menu. But the vibe and intimacy is what makes this place special. It’s a spot I plan to return to for the experience, not just the meal.

I love ZZ’s Clam Bar, a very tiny, very wonderful bar and rawbar / seafood place. Reservations are absolutely required, and the place is a total splurge. It functions like a speakeasy, and seats something like 12-16 people at tiny marble tables. It’s a bit like a jewel box, and it feels like something out of a different era, underscored by their vintage barware collection.
They have amazing, super crafted cocktails – some of the best – and incredible, fresh seafood. The Chianina beef carpaccio with sea urchin and caviar is absolutely and completely over the top and something I dream about.

One of my favorite bars in NYC. Quiet, cozy, great cocktail and fresh seafood every time. However, worth all the cons..?! Not sure
Pro:
– quiet & cozy
– great craft cocktails with fun presentations, all tiki themed
– all the items on the menu were fresh (ugh, the uni ) and full of flavors
– none of the menu items disappointed me (the caviar )
– tropical interior on point
Con:
– every time I visit, it is more difficult to get a reservation. They always seem to be booked for a private party
– every item on the menu is expensive
– if you’re a party of 3 or more, the place will be very crowded and uncomfortable as the place is extremely small.
– menu is limited. I really go for the uni toast and the cocktails

Very loud especially how small it is. It is a very lovely cocktail bar which I enjoyed but surprised it was Michelin star rated, since it really is a high end cocktail bar rather than a restaurant.

Exploring NYC and loved stopping here!
such a unique place that I would never find if I wouldn’t be with a New Yorker 🙂

Disappointed. We at at ZZ’s Friday, 10/1 (only learned it was reopening night from this post), and it was probably our worst dining experience in all of our years in NYC. To say that the menu was limited is a gross exaggeration; it consisted of toast (tuna, trout roe or uni), oysters and caviar. The service was unfriendly and slow. The drinks were too strong. The oysters were nice but the Orient Pearls did not seem fresh.
A “reopening” this poorly done should have been postponed (perhaps indefinitely).

Get in there if you can book a table! What a gem! They have 4-5 tables and the menu is raw but every bit amazing! The trout roe toast tastes like a divine dish created to make people happy:):)

The tiniest restaurant ever. Just four tables and a couple of counter spaces. Loved this tiny raw bar. Uni toast is a must. Lobster ceviche didn’t disappoint.
