Tribeca Grill
“I loved the décor inside, apparently all the artwork is done by Robert DeNiro's father, which is a cool little fact.”
“However, my date had the Gigantone Pasta with short rib bolognese sauce – this is the best pasta dish I have EVER had.”
“We had lamb chops, tuna tartare, crab cakes and beet crostini for appetizers, and lamb, scallops and chicken for entrees.”

Today, we celebrated New Years with our traditional brunch and once again the food, decor, service and value was outstanding. The onion soup got raves and we sent word to the chef to take a bow. A great way to start the new year.
We haven't been to this place in FOREVER!! The hubby was looking for a kid friendly, reasonably priced brunch spot for Easter Sunday and TriBeCa Grill fit the bill! I made a rhyme!!
The decor is really nice with a loft like feel. The staff is super friendly and accommodating, especially to my kids.
We had:
Eggs Benedict – very good, but the eggs weren't as runny as I normally like.
Kid's French Toast – my girls enjoyed.
Lamb Loin – very tasty
Caesar Salad – a bit dry
Apple Strudel – tasty but small
Cheesecake – very good
All in all it was a very nice brunch experience that was relatively easy on the wallet.
As someone who works down the block, I come here quite often for a drink. This place's big allure is that it's co-owned by Robert De Niro and is often frequented by celebs living in the neighborhood. The space itself is quite beautiful and open, with massive light fixtures keeping the space on the dimmer side of well-lite. They have plenty of tables for grabbing a full meal (with a few tables outside overlooking Greenwich St), with an oval bar in the middle of the room (which can get a bit awkward as the room fills up).
The food is generally good, with a clearly American menu (the Long Island Duck Breast is exceptional). That said there isn't much of a "wow factor" with the menu, so you're paying a bit of a premium for Tribeca/De Niro over the complexity of the menu itself. That said, the bar menu does not disappoint. Do yourself a favor and at least try the chicken fingers (the honey mustard is so good that patrons tend to ask for the recipe) and the burger (which if I recall, is on an english muffin). The drink menu is fairly diverse, ranging from cocktails to Icelandic beers (again, all a bit overpriced).
Service behind the bar could probably be improved a bit (they get overwhelmed quickly) but they are very welcoming and inviting.
All in all, definitely one of those places that every New Yorker should try, but you probably won't be blown away by the experience.
TG has been on my to-do list for a really long time. So I was happy to see that they offer a Restaurant Week brunch on the weekends, for $25/3 courses. Not a bad deal if you go for more the "lunch" (which I always do at brunch), versus overpriced egg dishes. My girlfriend made a ressie and we came here on a busy Sat at 1:30 with our fiances. We were seated promptly even though only there were initially only two of us for a good 10-15 min, and because my friends were running behind, they kindly allowed us to order for them so the first courses came out when they arrived.
I had the:
– chilled corn bisque which was so refreshing with nicely pickled enoki mushrooms
– the Chicken scalloppini which was really awesome: very thinly pounded, well seared, seasoned and came with fresh arugala, corn, tomato and red quinoa. Yum.
– The Italian panna cotta which was custardy but more tart/yogurt in taste over sweet, Vanilla-y panna cotta. This I wish was more traditional.
My friends had about the same, except that one of them decided to do the :
– Summer Lentil Salad (looked fresh and good but did not try)
-The chilled poached salmon (very light, healthy looking) – almost Scandanavian-y
-The Key Lime Cheesecake, which fiance had a bite and said it was delicious and sweet.
My fiance did not go for restaurant week and instead just got the fine goat cheese omelete which was so light and fluffy and came with grilled potatoes.
I will say, that the portions were very small. Even for the omelete, it was tiny for $15. But that being said, I'm actually dieting (trying to!) so I didn't mind too much but FYI.
I would take them up on their RW deal. Service was incredibly prompt and polite, and were patient with pacing the meal as two of our friends arrived late.
Probably inferior to Locanda Verde and/or Nobu… and it's in the same resto group, I believe. This place is spacious though so feel free to bring friends and fam. I have not dined here for dinner nor do I think I want to come back to do so.
First stop for the RW!
Salads as 1st courses, cod and pork chop as 2nd, and chocolate cake and bread pudding as deserts. I gotta say I enjoyed every bite of my main and desert. The salad is just salad but the cod and pork chop were perfected cooked, the desert was absolutely wonderful! Our server was so very nice and attentive and the atmosphere was just right, ok maybe a little loud cuz we are sitting right by the bar.
I love it, recommend it, and would go back for the regular menu for sure!
Owned by Robert DeNiro? Cool.
Food: I ordered the lamb meatballs for appetizer, steak for main dish, and pecan pie a la mode for dessert. The lamb was merely okay. The vegetables around it were surprisingly cold. Steak was cooked to a good temperature, but nothing very special, but dessert was really good, though on the sweet side.
Service: our servers were all extremely responsive and perky.
Decor: the restroom appears to be a floor or two below the main restaurant. The lighting is a bit dark for me.
This place appears to attract an older crowd for sure. I'm on the fence regarding whether I'd look forward to coming back.
Came here for Sunday brunch with my family and had a wonderful time. It was restaurant week so we all chose from their $25 prefixed menu. The food wasn't over the top, it was a more simple menu with a twist here and there, but all our meals tasted great. My jalapeno lime corn bisque as an appetizer and thoroughly enjoyed it. Just the right amount of lime and spice to cut through the creamy bisque. My mom and I ordered the grilled chicken scallopini, my sister had the chilled salmon and my dad wanted the classic scrambled eggs and applewood smoked bacon. All plates were almost licked clean after that. We ended with great desserts also, all of us trying to get a taste of each one. Out of the key lime cheesecake, chocolate cake, and the panna cotta, the cheesecake definitely hit the spot.
If you are in the area and want a casual meal with a classic, no-fuss decor than this is your place. Robert DeNiro also co-owns the place so maybe you'll get lucky and get to see him.
A stately downtown dining room. Great booths are tucked away near the bar, that's where we ate. #RW dinner was memorable.
Ate:
Sweet potato purée w/ sheepmilk yogurt
Roast Amish chicken black barley root veg
Triple chocolate layer cake
The bread was SupPar for this level of dining otherwise, a stellar meal. Soup was light and slightly spiced. The chicken, please sir I want some more. Flavorful, juicy bird & buttery, crispy skin with hearty barley and veg action w/ butternut squash swirl I'm guessing the triple chocolate cake is their signature. Super duper!
