A little about us & the culture that has been created… Friedmans is a family run business, which operates locations throughout New York City. Friedmans was named after the famous economist Milton Friedman who popularized the phrase, “there ain’t no such thing as a free lunch”. This phrase has gone on to be used in science, economics, finance, statistics, technology, sports, & now food. However, to put it simply, “to get one thing we like, we usually have to give up another thing we like.” Our mantra is simple, “Eat good food” and this is what we strive to deliver to our guests. For us, it has two meanings. Firstly, eat food that tastes good. Secondly, be proud of the food you serve. We know where our food comes from. We communicate regularly with our farmers and are proud to serve antibiotic free meats & local vegetables. Our mission is for you to love, respect, & enjoy, not only the food you serve, but also the team you work with.

Exceptional service by Sammy, delicious food and a festive ambiance made for a perfect Sunday night pre-Beacon Theater-show dinner. We enjoyed tender short ribs, tasty brick chicken and the quinoa bowl with chicken, followed by crème brûlée and chocolate babka for dessert. And we were only a short walk to the Beacon Theater for our show.

Did not ask about bringing a salad prior to the main courses, and all came together. My husband asked that they just take away his entree and call it a day. They then offered to bring it after he had finished his salad. We said okay, but both of our meals were pretty just on par. My grilled cheese sandwich was very skimpy on the cheese and his fried chicken was on the burnt to a crisp side.

We always enjoy Friedman's! We both love their salmon and this time we added one of the specials, mushroom soup. Delicious! And bowl was big enough to share. I just wish they'd bring back their lobster and macaroni and cheese. My favorite!!

The food was great. The staff were attentive and extremely nice. Restaurant was filled with people who had just completed the marathon, and the staff cheered everyone who came in. My one critique is that the lighting is a bit too bright.

Great menu selection. The salmon with mashed potatoes and spinach was perfectly prepared. The chopped Greek salad with salmon was also delicious. And excellent service by Sammy.

Excellent brick chicken with mashed potatoes and my companion enjoyed the meatloaf. Liked the roomy, comfy old fashioned booths. Noise not too bad. Friendly wait staff. Overall, lovely dinner.
