Not bad. Didnt know Macys had Bar and Grills in them….. With all the floors it was a relief to sit down and kick back for awhile here.
My friend was hungover and after shopping she was in desperate need of something to soak up the previous nights booze. We knew what we were signing on for, so we split a a Cellar Burger: angus beef, white cheddar, bacon and onion rings with fries. I don't like cheese burgers but it was fine because I couldn't taste any cheese anyway. It was there, I saw it, I just didn't register its flavor. The onions rings taste and look *exactly* like the frozen ones in a bag that America's Choice sells in supermarkets everywhere. The beef was completely flavorless. The fries were good though.
So a friend & I were shopping for a few things at this Macy's located in herald sq. We got hungry so decided why not eat the places offered. We decided to come here & did not regret it. I got a plate of fries & a burger & they were so delicious! The fries were so crispy (just how I like them) & the burger was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is great as well. The lights are dim & it looks very classy for a grill in a macys. Defiantly coming back when I shop here again 🙂
Started out promising- promptly got seated and the waitress brought me water while I waited for my friend. We place our order- my friend had the chicken Caesar salad and lemonade and I had the southwest burger (it sounded tempting with guacamole and roasted tomato). The food came fairly quickly, but my friend hadn't received her lemonade. My burger came out wrong, as in completely different burger. So they take that back. I catch the waitress' attention to ask for the lemonade and she barks at me that the burger is being taken care of. Nooo I tell her, my friend wants her lemonade. Well that will have to take a minute (rude, the correct answer was oh I'm sorry I forgot about that I'll get that right now). So the burger and drink comes. Not thrilled with the guacamole.. I like it chunky and limey- this was smooth and flavorless. The burger itself was okay. My friend was okay with her salad. Overall an okay experience. The waitress seemed frazzled which also made her seem rude and snappy. This place isn't the worse option if you are in Macy's and don't feel like hunting for something in the area (there isn't much).
Needed a sit down after buying my wife a designer handbag ! Got a couple of spaces at the bar. Pint of Sam Adams lager was OK side order of truffle fries were nice but had been made with frozen fries at 6 dollars you think they could cut their own. Its OK and not the first or last time I will be there. As a side note my wife used the rest room and said they were filthy worse than some of the dive bars we had been to on this trip. I dropped about 500 dollar's on this trip to Macy's many others were spending much more. Clean facilities should be a given.
Decent burgers but lousy service and price.
The burgers were pretty juicy and flavorful. It came with a fair amount of fries. As for the service, the waiter took forever with our drinks and with everything else. It wasn't very busy when I went so I couldn't understand why he kept taking his sweet time.
Verdict – After a long day of shopping, you might find yourself in here because it's in the basement level of Macy's and there aren't many good places to eat around here. Yes, Korea Town is just a block away and there are other places but the truth is they all flat out suck.
Meh. I've experienced better.
What's good about the place is that when we went there was not wait. They had a modified bar menu, nothing fancy, which is what I expected. It was moderately overpriced but for the convenience of the location, I was OK with that. The ambiance is Macy's themed.
The food came out suspiciously fast. Everything was mediocre and not memorable. I have no real complaints about it. Chicken sandwich, portabella mushroom burger, the basic sides, meh. A little bizarre that the waitstaff was OVERLY attentive. I guess they were just bored.
Convenient place to swing by for a cocktail, pre- or post-shopping. Can get a bit crowded, and service can be a bit spotty, but Macys isn't really in the restaurant business afterall … thumbs up for convenience and pretty good service on average
