Reviews

I keep coming back for lunch. They deliver tasty food quickly. The quality of service defined the experience. The menu used clear language. This spot requires your personal evaluation.

Stewart Manson

This spot turns ordinary ingredients into special meals. The food is consistently good and the service always pleases. Works nicely for unplanned dinners or eating alone. Workers are exceptionally nice and flexible, with quick food delivery. This restaurant should continue operating.

A very nice quant restaurant. Don't wait for the upstairs, go to the basement and witness a true European feel. It's cozy, and tight, but wonderful. The food is excellent and not badly priced. It is NYC! But be prepared to wait in any instance. We would go back just for the food. The museum is wonderful as well.

Craig Seabrooks

I was a bit put off by the security that, among other things, didn’t permit me to bring in a bottle of water. I realize it’s a museum but I was just going into the cafe and even if it didn’t feel unnecessarily strict, the men at the door and desk were very taciturn. Cafe Sabarsky was a beautiful room and while there wouldn’t have been much of a wait, we went downstairs to Cafe Fledermaus where it’s much more informal. The food was very well presented and enjoyable.

Cozy Austrian cafe. European style. Not that many vegan options. The warm pretzel is very good.
