A little about us & the culture that has been created… Friedmans is a family run business, which operates locations throughout New York City. Friedmans was named after the famous economist Milton Friedman who popularized the phrase, “there ain’t no such thing as a free lunch”. This phrase has gone on to be used in science, economics, finance, statistics, technology, sports, & now food. However, to put it simply, “to get one thing we like, we usually have to give up another thing we like.” Our mantra is simple, “Eat good food” and this is what we strive to deliver to our guests. For us, it has two meanings. Firstly, eat food that tastes good. Secondly, be proud of the food you serve. We know where our food comes from. We communicate regularly with our farmers and are proud to serve antibiotic free meats & local vegetables. Our mission is for you to love, respect, & enjoy, not only the food you serve, but also the team you work with.

    Perfect date spot. It's a little too intimate for groups but tables do sit up to around 5 or 6 comfortably. Maybe max id double date there but not really a family and children place. Food is gourmet comfort food, I guess as if you were in a Guesthouse. But an elevated, chic one. Great bottles list, great price.

    We went to The Smith Nomad for Thanksgiving dinner. The portions were perfect, the food was out quickly but we didn’t feel rushed at all! The restaurant was extremely clean and all the staff were happy and helpful. We would definitely recommend and definitely go back!

    We had the pappardelle funghi e tartufo, the spaghetti carbonara, and the rigatoni ala vodka. All the dishes were spot on! Came here for my birthday and I left feeling great with my choice! Service was perfect. If I lived in the city I would eat here often! Near Central Park.
