Rebelle nyc reviews2/26/2023 Not too full, but not as hungry when I first walked in. At the end of my meal, I was pretty satisfied. The portions are going to be small, so if you have a big appetite, look elsewhere. They have a pretty large selection of wines, but it seemed a bit pricey. Music playing in the background was at the right volume.įeel like the menu can have more choices, but there's something for everyone from vegetables, chicken, steak, and to seafood. It can be pretentious at times, but eh, just be yourself and enjoy the meal. Waters were constantly refilled.Īmbiance is some what modern, but low key and great for special occasions best to make reservations ahead. Service was really attentive, they cleaned the table between each course. The pastry part of the dessert was a bit bitter like cocoa or coffee beans, but it was good to mix it with the cream and sweet syrup surrounding the dessert, it was all well balanced. The huckleberry tasted great mixed with some cream that's not overly sweet. Mille Feuille – To be shared with two people, but can easily be eaten by one if you're still hungry at the end of your meal. Fish was cooked perfectly and medium, but not too raw. Hake – Fish filet swimming in a zesty delicious broth with bok choy. Seasoned just right, with a hint of lemon. If you had Chinese roasted pork belly before, the taste is similar with 5 spices, but in chicken form. Roast Chicken – The skin was really crispy and the meat was moist. The squid in should be mopped up with your bread, it was tasty. Comes with two scallops and two uni pieces. This tasted so fresh and everything balanced so well together. Low key, but higher end spot on the Bowery that is Romantic, intimate, and pumps out some really savory dishes.Īppetizers: Scallop and sea urchin, aka uni, with squid ink and thin apple slices. Will definitely be back to try the meatier items, as well as pay homage again to R Bar. The halibut portion was really skimpy for $20+, so perhaps I need to try the other main dishes. The prices, in general, are pretty expensive, but the chefs seem to really know what they're doing, so the value in general is pretty decent. Given that this was a last minute reservation, my friends had just come from the gym, and were wearing (classy) athletic gear, so I was very impressed at how well the waitstaff hid their judgment. The waitstaff was very good with recommendations and was very attentive throughout the meal. Everything else we ordered was very well-executed as well, but the lobster really impressed me. I'm not even sure it was actually butter foam, but it tasted buttery, and we asked for more bread to sop it all up. My favorite dish of the night though, was easily the lobster, as it had a really nice texture, and the butter foam kept me coming back for more. I really enjoyed the foie gras, as it had a really nice creamy texture, and pretty textbook in what you want from a torchon. Besides the torchon, we ordered the lobster with cabbage and butter foam, the kohlrabi, the hake, and seared scallops and uni in squid ink. We stuck mostly to seafood, with the exception of the foie gras torchon. Definitely different from R Bar, and slightly more elegant. The inside was pretty dimly lit, with a full bar, and dark, upholstered booths. I was very surprised, given that Rebelle earned a Michelin star, and the menu isn't particularly expensive in the realm of Michelin-starred restaurants. Thankfully, there were somehow seats at 8:30pm, which we booked promptly for the 4 of us. After a less-than-ideal HH nearby, we found ourselves looking for a place for dinner on a Friday night. However, I'm very glad that R Bar was replaced by a quality restaurant, so as not to besmirch the memory of our beloved late night institution.Īnyways, as previously mentioned, our experience at Rebelle was pretty great. Your stripper poles always made for a great night. First off, I know this is late, but RIP R Bar.
