I cannot believe 4th of July is over! The time sure seems to be flying by! I wanted to give a shout out to a restaurant that I enjoyed prior to COVID and is still fabulous after COVID. Bistro Verde is located in the fabulous Nordstrom store at West 57th Street near Columbus Circle. I was thrilled to be back after a long break, and the food did not disappoint. It's a top notch choice if you are in this area for lunch or dinner.
When I visited for Memorial Day weekend, I had a seat with a view of their new patio. I am not a fan of eating outside when very humid so opted to stay in the air conditioning. I had the Wild Salmon Oscar which was salmon with lump crabmeat on top. Their menu was very nice for dinner and their prices are affordable for NYC. It was so delish!
I like the decor, it's very simple and folks are not on top of each other like in some NYC restaurants. It's a great spot for a break, either from shopping or just walking around the city.
My trip in the middle of May, when I visited the Met, was good but service wasn't as great. They were not busy and yet it seemed to take forever for my order. The food was amazing as usual, this was Wild Salmon Nicoise, yes, I am a huge seafood lover! It was really so fantastic, I would get it again. The portions are very generous as well.
The lobster bisque is something I have been getting each time I visit as it's just so tasty.
I would highly recommend a meal here if you are in the area. Their pasta dishes are great as well and prices very reasonable. I can understand sometimes service is not 100% as they may have been short staffed that day. The service on Memorial Day weekend was spot on.
You can place reservations on Open Table but if you are there on an off time, it's usually easy to obtain a table. Dining outside is lovely if you do not mind the heat in the summer months.
