The Orchard Townhouse - New York

Walked in late afternoon for a drink and a nibble after gallerying around the High Line. Nice, quiet decor. Friendly, courtly service. The drinks and the dessert were nicely served and made. I imagine it would be a good place for lunch, dinner or a drink.

Lovely place in Chelsea. I was visiting from out of town and randomly found this place. Very charming, a hidden gem. Everyone is smiling and delightful, nice atmosphere and music. Since it was lunch and I was going to a meeting, my waitress Lupe suggested a cucumber mock tail which was delicious. I had a very nice hamburger and excellent latte. I highly recommend and will come back.

The table we were promised not available upon arrival.Food was not prepared as requested.Service wildly inattentive; exception was the busman, who stood head shoulders about the rest.Music loud/overbearing.Some may say 'cozy ', but the tables are so crammed we were constantly bumped into during our meal.Will not return.

Came here with family, got to try a lot of the menu! Almost every dish here was cooked perfectly, a great spot for American contemporary food if you’re looking for a nice dinner. The backyard heated patio was a lovely space, fully covered etc. The Hen of the Woods was incredible, perfectly crispy and tender with a nice sauce overtop. The Brussels sprouts were equally great, well roasted and coated with a citrus sauce that cuts the oiliness well. The cured trout-amazing, light, fresh, well balanced. The corn bread was more of a fried outer layer with soft corn filling on the inside, but super tasty. The pull apart milk bread was perfectly soft, butter had a bit of an off taste but also completely subjective. For the entrees we got cheeseburgers, the forage, chicken Milanese, and hanger steak. My Milanese was perfectly cooked, crisp layer of breading with juicy chicken breast on the inside, but only came with that and a bed of greens. Although well cooked, it was a little lackluster in what came with it (a little dry, even with the nice anchovy sauce on top). The Dorade was amaaazing, perfectly cooked and plated. The steak was alright, a little average, but fries were nice. The desserts also great, no complaints really. Definitely not a cheap place, but more or less worth the prices!

Had a horrible dining experience here. The restaurant was not crowded and the service was so slow. Our drinks took 20 minutes and when we ordered apps they never showed up. We even reminded a server that our app order never game (not our server bc we couldn't find them) and finally when our dinner came they offered to bring out our apps. Ordered the steak and it was so tough and flavorless.
