Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Genesis House Restaurant offers a "beautiful atmosphere" with "spectacular" Hudson River views. Guests rave about the "unique and delicious" food, though portions are on the smaller side. The "service is superb," and the ambiance strikes a balance between elegance and comfort. While management has room for improvement, the dining experience remains a "gem."

    It is a beautiful restaurant. The view of the Hudson with the blue sky is spectacular. The food is unique and very delicious. The portions are small and well presented.

    Highest recommendation. The space is striking, service is superb as is the food. The only negative is that I wish the menu was more extensive. Overall, this is a gem.

    I’ve been raving about Genesis House since it opened, and it used to be one of my favorite spots. I’ve even been to the Connaught Bar in London, considered the #1 bar in the world, and honestly, Genesis House was right up there for me. I loved their seasonal cocktails and food menu—it was always an incredible experience. However, after my visit this past weekend, I was deeply disappointed. They’ve changed the chef, staff, and bartender, and unfortunately, it shows. The new food menu lacks the same quality and creativity, and the cocktails just don’t compare to what they used to be. It’s heartbreaking to say this because I’ve been such a loyal fan, but I don’t see myself returning. The magic that made this place so special is gone.

    Service staff, ambiance, and food is fantastic, but management is extremely lackluster. The front of house managers struggle to complete relatively straightforward tasks expected from restaurant operators - issues include (i) difficulty using OpenTable-provided rewards, (ii) double charging on a credit card, and (iii) inability to provide a system-voided receipt. I expected better from a restaurant operating prix-fixe menus at $60+.
    Genesis House RestaurantResponded on 11 January 2025
    Hello Richard, Thank you for your kind words about our service staff, ambiance, and food—we're thrilled you enjoyed those aspects of your experience! However, we sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered with management. We deeply regret any inconvenience caused by the challenges you mentioned.

    Food was not great and service was not great. Restaurant was basically empty and yet it still took time to be served
