Best Fun Restaurants in Carnegie Hill

I purchased the pasta making experience as part of my fiancé’s Christmas present. He loves good fresh Italian food and Aunt Jake’s did not disappoint. The food was amazing the class was very explanatory and easy to follow. This is an exceptional value. I will say the only down side is that the space to work and learn is a little tight but hey most places in NYC are. If you are looking for delicious pasta and an amazing experience Aunt Jake’s is for you!

Dinner for two - loved the dimsum tower - how fun are those flavors!!! Pepper beef was outstanding as well as the scallion pancake. Wish we had more room for dessert!

We were so pleased with our first visit to Carmine's. My husband and I usually travel to NYC alone, and have never gone before because we heard how large the portions are - and they are NOT kidding. There were 7 of us for dinner, and we shared a Caesar Salad, Cheesy Garlic Bread, Rigatoni Bolognese, Eggplant Parm, Veal Scallopini, and Tiramisu and it was perfect portions. Only thing we took home was the Garlic Bread (which the 19-year-old scarfed down likely before it made it to the hotel fridge.) Paul our server was fantastic - happy to see our family reunion the day after Christmas with family from Myrtle Beach. The restaurant is crowded and loud, so expect that - but it's a fun environment and you can tell it's mostly families just having a great time. This dinner capped off a perfect day celebrating the 19-year-old's first Broadway Show.

We had an amazing birthday experience. Delicious cakes, sandwiches and scones, great tea and an extra birthday treat. All in the great space at the palm court. Arrive feom Friz was exceptional - we will be back just to see him again. A very special experience that I highly recommend

Such a decorative place & perfect for Christmas! Had a great time. Wish they had more vegetarian dish. Some vegetarians hot meal. But my quinoa & kale salad was very delicious so that made my night! Overall it was magical because of the ambiance!
