Nice bar/restaurant located in the Garment District of New York City. The place is so lovely! Fancy decoration and beautiful pictures of the city on the old days. We’ve been there on a Thursday night, and there were several seats available. Good variety of drinks and draft beers. But we were expecting more from the food, especially considering the price. They look great in the picture, but taste is beyond the expectation. Anyway, a good place to go.

We were wandering around New York at 11 without having had dinner. We were so happy to see this place was still serving food! They had a late night menu available, with good variety. We had the Brussels sprouts, which were so good that my kids ate them up! We also had shrimp and calamari. The kids had mac & cheese. Yummy cocktails! Everyone was satisfied, and the portions were ample. Once again, I forgot to take pictures until the food was halfway gone.

Excellent drinks and bites… how great to have a place like this so close to the theaters (NOT a tourist trap). Everyone in our party was happy.

I feel like I’ve been catfished coming here.. After seeing the photos and website I was so excited to come here for lunch! I was so disappointed since everything about this restaurant was great except for the food! The interior was so nice and the restaurant had such a good vibe. Our server was so kind and friendly but the kitchen was so slow. This was surprisingly as almost every table was empty. The food slowly trickled out a few dishes at a time and we weren’t able to start eating together.. We particularly disliked the deviled eggs (these were strangely fried and bland), Mac and cheese (needed more cheese and flavor) and sticky tofu (the texture was good but the flavor was off. The only redeeming quality were the drinks and amazing service. I would only recommend coming for drinks! Especially the PREACHER MAN

My wife and I came back to The Independent after 5 years since last visiting NYC. We had such a great experience before, we had to come back. It did not disappoint again. We visited before a show at MSG. The food was terrific, cocktails were well made and the bartenders and staff are the best. Put this place on your to go list. We will be back again.

We had a reservation for 4 at 12:45pm, just after 2 of us arrived from NY Penn Station. We were seated immediately as it was not at all crowded.
