Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Columbus Circle

We may have gotten lucky because we went to Rock Center and had a reservation New Years Day. But our party of 6 was sat immediately upon checking in even though restaurant was busy. Good menu choices. Waiter attentive enough. Gave water right away but took awhile to come back to take order. Food came prompt, portions were good size and mostly delicious. Drink special was delightful and nice size. Def enjoyed our time there!

We’ve eaten here multiple times on multiple trips to NYC and we’re always impressed with the incredible professionalism and efficiency in which the staff move through massive volumes of people. It is a true testament to teamwork and commitment to customers. The food is amazing, oh my gosh, wait until the French toast comes out topped with fresh berries and whipped cream, the mimosas are delicious with fresh orange juice, and it’s really fun squeezed in among the artwork and atmosphere with your family and friends. This restaurant is top tier and hits all notes - warm place, staff, and food. Don’t miss it, it’s sure to become a fave!

Arrived at Del Frisco Double Eagle at 4:50 for a 5:15 pm Christmas Day reservation. Checked in with hostess and let her know we were going to be a party of 5, not 6 as originally booked. "No problem, your table will be just a moment" At 5:15 I get a text that my table is ready. When I approach the hostess, she states "you booked Del Frisco Grille, not here" I questioned how she checked us in and let us stand around for 25 min. She stated, "oh well". When I inquire where Del Frisco Grille is I was told a couple of blocks away. I asked for address or directions but was told to "use my phone, it's not difficult." Fortunately, as we were walking to the Grille the hostess called to see if we were on the way. I explained what happened and she assured me that my table would be held while we bobbed and weaved through the crowds on the street. Once there it was a lovely evening. Food and service were great. Perhaps the hostesses at Double Eagle could try to be a little more patient, helpful and kinder like the girls over at The Grille.

Nice bar/restaurant for brunch. We were looking for a quiet place for brunch Christmas week and stumbled upon this establishment. The greeter/waiter, Cameron, was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and the drinks were great too! Definitely recommend it and will be back soon!

We had a wonderful experience at Carla. Staff was amazing and food was absolutely delicious. We got the queso and chips for an appetizer and the fish and chips for our entree. Both were very pleasant dishes! We will be back when we are back in NYC.
