The Smith is a casual American brasserie with four upbeat locations in New York City: The Smith East Village, The Smith Midtown, The Smith Lincoln Square, and The Smith NoMad, as well as locations in DC and Chicago. We care about every meal and every moment. The menu features bistro classics, seasonal fare, and craft cocktails. Walk in the door and you’re in for a great time. Whether it’s date night, drinks on the town, a big birthday bash, a working lunch, a boozy brunch, or an I-don’t-want-to-cook-tonight night, we’ve got you covered.

    Had the rigatoni al vodka and the oyster sampler. Oysters were very well done. The rigatoni was decent, and an interesting (in a good way!) combination of flavours. The service was fantastic and I appreciated the server's recommendations on the oyster sampler as well as on the drinks. Environment was nice, and it was energetic and bustling as I would expect but I was still able to carry out a nice conversation. Would come again!

    There’s nothing wrong with a nice bite at The Smith. There’s just nothing totally right about it either. Mostly mediocre chain punching above its weight with flavor and below with service. Could be better. Quieter. Less frenetic. More room between tables. It’s crowded and there’s never a server around when you need one.

    We were seated outside which was fine because it was warm but the tables were so close to each other, you couldn’t get in or out of them without basically putting yourself on the neighboring person’s lap, and I am a small person, can’t imagine someone of considerable size. My chair had water spilled on it when we were seated and I had to wipe it down myself and request a replacement cloth napkin. The food was just ok, and also quite pricey. We weren’t asked if we wanted refills on our drinks, but the mocha I had was delicious. We probably won’t be back to this establishment

    Very loud and kinda slow. I told waitress 2x that we wanted the appetizers before the meal. Yet the appetizers showed up and two minutes later the meals. Also saw so manny managers walking around but not one checking on tables. Not good customer service.

    Fast food in the midst of a virtual scrum at the entrance. Service good and food is fine.
