Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Asterid offers a delightful culinary experience with inventive dishes like the "spiced short rib" and "yuzu cassis dessert." Its convenient location is ideal for theater-goers, ensuring a memorable pre-show dining option. While service can be inconsistent, the atmosphere is lively, and the food presentation is commendable.

    We had an amazing dinner at Asterid. From beginning to end the experience was wonderful. From the staff who cared about us to the food that tasted out of this world. I highly recommend Asterrid and I will certainly return soon1

    I had the short ribs and the flavors were so abundant and fantastic. The staff was kind and professional and the noise was remarkably low. Great place to go before a show.

    Food was very good and service was pleasant but not as professional as it should have been (menus were left on table, a bit casual for the price)…. The beet plate was way overpriced for three small pieces of beet and three small pieces of endive on a huge plate. Basically excellent meal with only a couple of things I felt were not as professional as they should have been.

    Very expensive for what you get. The food isn’t outstanding and the service is adequate. For the prices you pay it should be an exceptional experience.

    This was our first visit to Asterid this season. We were going to the Opera so we had 5:30 reservations. Our hostess was so nice finding a perfect table for the 4 of us. Our waitress Malak noted the time we needed, making excellent suggestions. She surprised us with Prosecco for a toast for my husband’s birthday. The appetizers were served quickly & delicious with perfect martinis. We shared several salads & main dishes. Topped off by the delicious Budino dessert. Malak was friendly , professional, & knowledgeable. We look forward to more pre theater dinners . Thank you for the excellent service by all servers & the great team!!
