Love this location. My friend and I had a lovely brunch. We ate outdoors, and the food and drinks were great. The servers were very attentive and friendly. Its also dog-friendly. We will definitely be coming here more often!

Ive eaten there a few times and the food was constantly good.The arugula salad is simple but delicious. The grilled branzino with spinach and mashed potatoes is tasty and satisfying.The space is decent but could get pretty loud if close to full capacity.I would return there again.

Love the Shrimp Tower with chopped mango and avocado beautifully presented. Very creative food with interesting authorizing combinations!! Great neighborhood restaurant with a terrific singer on Friday and Saturday early evenings! Fun bar! Nice company!

Great restaurant week deal - 3 courses for $45. Highlights were the perfectly fudgey brownie & ice cream & the Ragu. While a unique idea, crispy tortellinis were dry & not flavorful.

Lovely neighborhood spot. Our server was so attentive and kind.The food was amazing! The peach Melba was best dessert I’ve had and prices were reasonable.

I loved the food at this place, it is so underrated. The atmosphere was great and the whole layout was perfect for a sunny brunch. Very affordable lunch and dinner set menu. Their crab cakes and truffle risotto were delicious. Paired with bubbly Bellini~~ love their freshly baked fluffy Madeline’s too~

My date and I were there last night for New Year’s Eve. I had the branzino and it was delicious! We came just in time to be dazzled by the classy singer who was simply wonderful. She took requests and added so much to the ambience and it made our New Year’s Eve!The balloons were a classy touch.We look forward to coming back.

First of all, the ambiance was great, and it’s been a long time since I’ve been to a decently-priced restaurant that offered coat check. I appreciated it a lot. The restaurant itself is beautiful. My passionfruit martini was good, and I normally would not choose a vodka-based cocktail. I care about food waste, so I liked that a serving of bread was offered to each guest rather than being given a full bread basket for the table. My table of 3 ordered the crab cake, lobster linguini, chicken francese, and jambalaya. Everyone thought their dishes were great - my dad has roots in New Orleans and anticipated the jambalaya being below par but was so happy that it was full of flavor and done right. The portion sizes of the meals were done right as well. I dislike going to restaurants that serve 2 portions of food because I’m either leaving too full, with a take out box, or wasting food. I felt satisfied at the end of my entree, and 95% of the dish was eaten. The prices were reasonable as well. I was happy to pay for what we received, and I would become a regular here because of the price range for the overall quality of everything. For dessert, we ordered the peach Melba, cookie skillet, and assorted ice cream. All were great in terms of quality and serving size. Finally, I appreciated the service! One of my biggest pet peeves when dining is how often the server is at the table asking how things are going. Sometimes they ask how the food is before a bite is taken. Our server was attentive and helpful without hovering and interrupting our conversations every few minutes. I’m rating the food and service as a 4 because I want to rate the atmosphere higher since that was the piece that tied the experience together and made it feel comfortable, yet luxurious, which I’ve found is a hard balance for places to strike. It’s often either too casual or too stiff, and honestly it was a shame that so many customers preferred to have their jackets hanging off the backs of their chairs with a coat check right there!

This place was amazing. We thought the GM was the owner because of how he treated the place. He was on top of everything and really appeared to care. The food was outstanding also. We would definitely come back. Outdoor seating was the best people watching and building looking.

Great place to take a date or have a casual meal. The food is good and its fairly priced. The waiters are fast and friendly. Arguably one of the better restaurants in the Sutton Place Area. I highly recommend trying their Eggs Benedict for brunch or the Steak Frites for dinner.

Review 13 (2024-09-26 - Rating: 5)
I couldnt wait to get to the restaurant to try their menu! The four cheese ravioli were amazing, but the brussel sprouts leave really set it over the top. I wish I had an entire plate of that! The banana bread old fashioned was to die for! I will definitely be back

Review 14 (2024-05-29 - Rating: 5)
The filet mignon, onion soup and brownies were awesome. The tortellini werent as good as the rest but overall, very solid and reasonably priced. The four of us got dessert but I couldnt decide between the coconut cake or the brownie and the manager comped us the brownie! That was such a nice surprise.

Went here for brunch with my parents and brother. Most meals were pretty good. I felt a bit tricked with the dish I ordered though. It was written in the menu that I was ordering a fish filet with some vegetables under a french dish title (yellowfin tuna viçoise). Turned out it was pretty much just a salad with some pan seared tuna pieces. A 24 dollar dish that is hardly sufficient for a hungry adult. The burger my dad had was very good (I had a taste). The eggs and steak were good as well, but I think the steak could have been jucier. My dish is a good option for someone on a diet, which I actually need and therefore wasn’t that upset about it. Mimosa was fine but I am pretty sure they use pasteurized orange juice. The ambience and service were both fine. It’s not an expensive place, therefore overall a very decent value.

Whoever comes to New York needs to visit this restaurant! Amazing food and service! Truffle risotto and coconut shrimp were delicious but the service from Milica was priceless! She deserved all the tip she got!

Review 17 (2024-08-18 - Rating: 5)
We held a bridal shower (brunch) in the mezzanine space above the bar area. The space was PERFECT for 20-24 people (seated); private and intimate enough for our party. We so enjoyed decorating the space an hour prior, with plenty of space for seated games and pictures . The food was exquisite and service impeccable. We worked closely with Amy and Sandra on the planning and menu choices . The bride’s parents have dined there several times and love the food and atmosphere . Thanks to ALL the staff- our guests were equally pleased.

Went out to dinner here almost every night this week, tried the lobster once and had to come back! Overall, amazing place, attentive service and lovely atmosphere, even had live music. A must visit if in Manhattan.

A dinner with personalityOk food in a nice setting

Review 20 (2022-06-28 - Rating: 5)
Coordinated and attended a work function here. We used the whole dining room, doing a dinner for about 35 people with drinks included. The ambience was good, and the staff were really accommodating to our many requests and questions. Overall, the dinner went really well, and all the food was really good. Would definitely go back on again.

We had top notch service and food. They were very accommodating. The filet mignon was grilled to perfection. The halibut was delicious. They had great drinks and desserts. It was easy to get a reservation. We are glad we found this place on Google maps. Definitely will be returning!

We reserved Copinettes Mezzanine for our parents anniversary dinner and the restaurant/staff were such wonderful hosts. The options for the prefix and drinks menus were flexible enough to satisfy everyone in the party. The portions were great and the food was delicious! We also had to move the date 2x due to unexpected circumstances and they were very, very accommodating. We will definitely go back to host other parties there, we had a great time!.Edit to add: We returned for dinner and as before, service and food were great. The menu is extremely affordable and the drinks were delicious.

We liked this place so much we went twice. Often a mistake but in this case, a positive joy! Food was excellent, wine good, service unsurpassed. And we had a singer on the pavement visit 1 and a jazz band day 2.

Very nice cozy restaurantGreat food, we ordered crab cake, truffle risotto and shrimp scampi. The tastes were spot on. However the orange juice we ordered was not so good.Also, unfortunately, my glasses went mystically missing there.A good experience overall.

Very delicious good food with great service. I enjoyed the halibut, crab cake and rack of lamb. They do pay special attention to food allergies upon request. Very good strong cocktails.

Amy was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of planning our event. She was quick to respond to my emails and very kind. The staff at the venue were amazing and extremely accommodating. I was initially nervous about the semi-private area being too loud to hear my guests, but it turned out to be perfect—not too loud at all. The food was also great. I would definitely recommend this venue to others and would book it again!

The perfect brunch experience. I had the croque monsieur and crab Benedict with truffle fries. All so good. Cocktails & wine rounded out the menu. The waitstaff was so lovely and pleasant I would def return.

Found Copinette by chance on OpenTable, and my family and I were pleasantly surprised by the food and service. Very well priced for NYC standards, and our servers were attentive. I have been to Copinette twice now. The truffle risotto is great, and the chicken cordon bleu is good as well. My family got some meats and fish dishes, and they were all tasty. The desserts were also great. I suggest the cheesecake - you wont be disappointed!

Review 34 (2024-05-15 - Rating: 5)
So blessed to have found this wonderful spot in Midtown. I frequently travel from Brooklyn to Midtown Manhattan and I’m overjoyed to have found Copinette. We enjoyed chicken Caesar salad, a perfectly seasoned crabcake sandwich on a toasted brioche bun with fries and last, but not least a phenomenal strawberry ricotta cheesecake. Will most definitely return to try the dinner menu. Two big thumbs up.

We recently hosted a winemaker lunch for about 10 people at Copinette and I cannot say enough great things about Amy and her team. They made planning easy, set us up in a cozy spot in the back of the restaurant, and provided a delicious menu that perfectly paired with the wines. The staff is so attentive and everything worked out perfectly for the event. Wholly recommend for any event when you want a highly personalized experience

Review 37 (2024-12-10 - Rating: 5)
Big challenge: I had to host a donor-related business lunch for ten in mid-December in New York—and I was in London. Amy Bacic provided excellent, personal service in arranging this. I had once had a business dinner there for three, at the recommendation of an embassy, so I hoped it would be yummy at scale. It was excellent. Both times, we were treated warmly and well. Personal and professional. The food is excellent, reasonable, and non-cliche, including for vegetarians. This is a gem. Ridiculously close to UN for any diplomatic-related events. My whole team loved it.

Had an excellent outdoor dinner on a cold night, space heaters running on high!Only wish they had still kept up the large outdoor seating area (with walls to protect from the wind, etc) for outdoor winter dining

A new favorite spot!Excellent food, great service, friendly staffTried the blackened shrimp salad and the pan seared scallops and loved every bite.The cookie skillet is a show stopper!Will definitely be coming back

It’s a pleasant French restaurant with an excellent menu and really good servers. The prices are reasonable and the food is outstanding. So, why the 4 stars? It is so noisy that you really cannot have a conversation with your dining partner. Also. The wait for the food usually takes a while. Still, I like the place and recommend it.

5 stars because my parents raved about the food long after we left. For reference, theyre from Connecticut and do not eat out much. My parents prefer healthy home-cooked foods.We came for lunch during the weekday at open (no reservation), by the time we were leaving the tables started to fill up. This place had seating in both indoors and out. The vibes were that of Midtown transitioning into the Upper East Side. Started to feel a little posh for a simpleton like myself. Roughly $25 a lunchtime plate.For starters we had the Grilled Octopus to split between 3 ppl. Could have been 4 but my mom doesnt do tentacles-- too bad because you get a whole tentacle roughly 9 inches long with different texture throughout. Seems crisper as it tapers down thin, but my dad did not give me a chance with the end piece. At least mom enjoyed the garnishing salad that came with it.Grilled Octopus-- 5 stars because it was joyfully shared!My mom had the Crab Cake Sandwich, which she raved about and fought herself to save the other half for my pops. I couldnt even take a picture because it had no chance.My pops had the Grilled Branzino which he liked even though he wasnt feeling fish recently. So this was a good sign.My partner had the Truffle Rissoto because it was made with truffle oil and rissoto is difficult to make. Note to self, homeboy appreciates difficulty. Nevertheless, the rissoto is a heavy meal for someone craving a warm comfort meal. I would pair it with a lighter appetizer, however. The mushrooms are a pleasant touch-- and as a mushroom lover, I wish there were more pieces in there. About 1.5 cups of risotto is served for the lunch meal, but again its a dense and savory meal.Last but not least-- my meal was the Cobb Salad which I picked on a whim because I was occupied with choosing for my parents. Hey it was on top of the list! Since Ive developed the condition called pregnancy I was sensitive to how the grilled chicken smelled and was not able to consume half the chicken served with it. Otherwise, it was okay. 3 stars because it was a basic blue cheese and grilled chicken salad, but the few slices of avocado involved made me happy.Would visit again. Service was good.

We had no reservation and were able to be seated immediately as we were just BARELY before the rush. We showed up on an evening with a MAGICAL French jazz band and the staff was wonderful when they made sure we knew the band was coming, where theyd be setting up, and that perhaps our original seating choice wasnt the best since the band would be a bit loud. The level of attention was amazing, the food exquisite, and the atmosphere was mesmerizing. I could have stayed and enjoyed all three for much longer had we not been with an angst 10 year old 😉

I was looking for a place for 8 people that didn’t require a set menu and found this restaurant. Everything we ordered was great. I loved the calamari and the goat cheese salad. The octopus was good too. I had the salmon which was made medium rare and came with lentils which was a great side. All the dessert we had were great.

We work at the United Nations and a few of us were here for lunch this afternoon.Half way through our meal we were suddenly mesmerized by an amazingly beautiful singing voice coming from the other end of the dining room.At first we all thought it was recorded house music. Evidently, there was party of ladies having a gathering and this singer was providing the music for them. We had to get up from eating and get closer to hear this fantastic singer. Just WOW!! The energy was amazing. Everyone having such a great time on a Wednesday afternoon!! What joy she brought.She said she is there weekends and today was an exception for that party. Wish she was there more often during lunchtime. (Liberty) really boosted our day. We hope to come back and catch it again.

Great Manhattan eatery. Midtown East, a little north (uptown for us NYers) of Grand Central/Madison. If you are on the hunt for understated elegance combined with culinary excellence, then this is your place. Great atmosphere and welcoming, attentive staff make the experience. All of the food was thoughtfully prepared and served, AND they happily accommodated my guest that cannot eat too much sodium.Steak was perfectly seasoned and prepared and the Bolognese was to die for, and I am a harsh Italian food critic. Thank you, Copinette! Looking forward to our return for some culinary jazz one of these upcoming Sundays.

We organized a reunion of school friends here long distance and could not have been more happy with this occasion. The restaurant is so attractive and all the staff is lovely, while the menu is contemporary and interesting. The food was just delicious- salads beautiful, great bread with sandwiches, and nice wines. This is a place that cares about good ingredients. Some of our folks also had some of their perfectly gorgeous desserts . Prices were reasonable. If we lived here, we would be regulars!

Amazing cocktails. Cheers to Marius. Try the Copinette Cosmo. That was just the start. Buratta salad was a perfect size and super yummy. Haddock was prepared perfectly and Pinot Noir by the glass was a perfect pairing. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience Copinette. It is my go to spot every time I visit the city. Worth the trip to 1st ave!!!

It is really nice to know that some restaurants in NYC still have what it takes. After so many mediocre dining experiences around Manhattan since COVID, I had almost given up and resigned to this “new normal”. Here is a restaurant that has it together and it shows. Great food/ drinks/ service/everything. THANK YOU 🙏

Stumbled upon this place while on a girl’s night out. The outside decor immediately drew us to the door and must I say, I am very happy it did! The food and drinks were amazing. I ordered the scallops as an appetizer and the filet mignon for dinner. The portions were just as I expected. The service was amazing as well, we did not wait for our food very long and the waiter continuously checked in to see if we needed anything else. Overall a great experience, definitely would recommend, and will definitely be back!

Quaint place for brunch on a Saturday afternoon. I saw a lot of elderly locals come which was nice. Inside gives a Havana style interior deco and there are plenty of outdoor seats. Food was good and their portions are big. I got their burger and the patty was thick. Overall a great place to talk, eat and drink Bellinis, strawberry mojitos and spicy margaritas.Recently went back and the food I ordered was not as described as by the waiter. So I reordered the shrimp and risotto and the risotto was not fully cooked and hard. The lycheetini cocktail was good.

Very VERY good food. Prices were also very good & fair. The only downside was I went with a group of 4 on a 90° day. We opted to sit in the outdoor seating order but it was even HOTTER in there. I think they should try to put fans or something because we wanted to stay and order more but we all were sweating and extremely hot. Other than that highly recommend!!

Review 77 (2024-09-12 - Rating: 4)
Great lunch menu! Grilled branzino was excellent. Doesn’t make sense that adding a glass of wine to your lunch costs more than the same glass of wine ordered from the full menu though. Manager should pay attention to that. Also, host asked us to sit right next to the only table being occupied, trapped in a tight corner, while the rest of the salon was completely open. Waiter witnessed it and immediately said “please feel free to sit elsewhere if you’re not comfortable here” which was a great attitude.

This place is always full of neighborhood regulars, especially on Sundays for live jazz. Really delicious food -- lots of perfectly executed standards and a few stand-outs. After eating through the menu, now I usually try a special. Consistent, professional staff -- hard working, proud, gracious, truly happy to see you. Highly recommended.

Copinette is a cozy restaurant with friendly and professional staff. We ate family style, so everyone can have a bit of everything. For the most part, we enjoyed our meals. Arturo and Marius were great.Apps: Bacon Mac N Cheese (a little underwhelming for us), Potato Leak Soup (everyone liked this, but many liked the French Mushroom Soup more), Calamari (tasted basic), Tuna Tatare, Grilled Octopus. We finished all the apps!Entrees: Rack of Lamb (well liked), Steak Frites, Chilean Sea Bass, and Stuffed Salmon (Entree of the day was popular with us), Shrimp Scampi (mom didn’t like it), Truffle Risotto (my sister raved about this).Drinks: We ordered a lot of strawberry mojitos 🍸Desserts: I loved the Sorbet- raspberry, mango, coconut flavors, coconut cake (yummy too), chocolate mousse (most liked it), and cheesecake (I didn’t like it)

Coat check, bar, mezzanine dining for patrons in a large group, great food and fantastic and willing staff - all make this a top choice.The only thing Id change was the temp control, evergreen though we could see it was set to 66 degrees out felt like a furnace there with so many people.We were part of a large office group having our holiday dinner party at the restaurant. I had the pan roasted Salmon with mango bruschetta topping and the ricotto cheesecake with strawberry compote. Great stuff. 👍🏻

Went here for lunch on Thursday and I really enjoyed my meal. The service was good and water was constantly refilled. The food was tasty and came relatively quickly. The portions are a reasonable size. Definitely coming back. Five stars.

We had a private party here and it was amazing. My managing partner raved that everyone went above and beyond. The food was fantastic and the service was stellar. Sandra was so helpful organizing everything.

With my best supper friends...in the neighborhood, outdoor dining - set up is very well done. Have eaten at Copinette several times in the past, pleasant experience. This supper, was a little off. Ill chalk it up to co-vid dining...sadly, most restaurants have been compromised by the pandemic. The macaroni and cheese was terrific, portion was a bit small, even as an appetizer. Salads required more dressing. Tossed prior to being served - too dry. Bacon wrapped shrimp was a treat. Service a little off, again, circumstantial. Giving this restaurant 100% credit for there efforts! Thank you...

The plating of my filet has risen to new splendor but the mound of garlic mashed potatoes was not as high as past. Ordered medium but got medium well. I’ll trust it was a fluke and return again.

Delightful staff served us lunch outside among tiny potted trees along the outer building wall. The arugula salad was so fresh and not overly dressed with seemingly individually chosen perfectly formed walnuts, scattered bleu cheese, and pretty pear sticks. Have the offered bread. Its delicious fantastic! Crispy, crunchy, grainy but not gritty, and warm, so butter melted inside and made the best bite for our Tempranillo Rioja. At the current 35% capacity, tables get filled fast, so do reserve and enjoy the mild spring weather.

This place has alot of potential but I think just missed the mark for us. Went for a late breakfast/brunch. Food was good not great. Bloody Mary was excellent. Itll do in a pinch for a spot when all the other (better) options are too crowded.

Review 100 (2019-06-03 - Rating: 5)
Ill start with the aproach, its very easy stop from the street, and you can tell right away it looks like a nice spot. As you come in your greated by a friendly staff member who sits you down. The experiance started right there! We were asked if we want to sit by the jazz players and see them or if we wanted something a bit more quiter. We chose to sit by the jazz players and were advised where to sit for 3 diffrent experiances. One was all about the jazz music, upclose and personel. The other gave us a great view and listening experiance but was just far enough to still cary a conversation. Considering it was just us 4, we figured we would choose this option. Had a great view. Heard everything clearly and still had great conversations. The food. Nothing short of spactular. Chose thier specials menu after hearing it, and a few starters. Everything was pleasent, light and just a hair above what we expected. The waiters staff was nice, curtiouse and explained all the dishes, and recomended options and substations for specific ingrediants. The wine selection was also top knoch. Neither wine was to expensive and was just right for the taste. The meals were satisfying and we chose to skip dessert but were pleasently supprised with an amazing dessert wine. The prices were fair. The food amazing and obove all we met the owner who himself has a strong culanery background but also is an intreging individual. Defenitly would come back for just dinner, or a business meeting.

Went here for lunch on a random Tuesday afternoon and the place was relatively quiet. The four of us and our little one on his comfortable high chair were seated right away.We started off with Cucumber Cooler ($15), Spicy Margarita ($15), and Gene Hackman ($15) as our cocktails - all of which were absolutely excellent. Good taste, good amount of punch and took us all to that happy place after our drink!For Appetizers, we got the Truffle Burrata ($16) and Super Lump Crab Cake ($19) both of which were excellent and very flavorful.For mains we got the Smoked Salmon Frittata ($18), Four Cheese Ravioli ($20), Truffle Risotto ($19), and Fettuccine Bolognese ($22). The vegetarian options were excellent and my Four Cheese Ravioli was very delicious. Our table enjoyed their meal and food overall was really delicious and for a change, really well priced too!Service was excellent, friendly staff, and food arrived within 20 minutes of ordering. Noise levels were low and seating was very comfortable. We will definitely visit again!

Wow,simply amazing.Not knowing what to expect we were blown away.Right when we walked in the front door Theresa the barmaid treated us like we were part of the family.Hanging out at the bar before dinner was great.We were seated by Andrew who explained the specials of the night and his favorites.Octupus salad and crab cakes were super.The French onion soup was banging in its crock with cheese over the side.Main course finished the five star night as my wife had the seabass and ny strip was made to perfection.As there are many choices of eateries in the area,it’s all about the atmosphere just as much as the food.They clearly have it working here with all the components of fantastic food,atmosphere and very reasonable prices for NYC.

My wife and I enjoyed a very relaxed cocktail at the bar before taking our six person table.The restaurant has an excellent manager who hires and retains warm and inviting staff that offered us a great corner table.The staff were very accommodating throughout our meal. We all enjoyed a thoroughly relaxing 3 hour dinner.Most inspiring was the integrity of the waitstaff as they informed me that I had essentially doubled the intended tip since the bill for our party of 6 had included all gratuities. Honest people who deserve your patronage!

This was our first visit after hearing several recommendations from friends in our building on 53rd St. After a warm welcome, we received the perfect table and excellent service. The food was beautifully prepared, with a timely arrival and it was delicious. I personally had the lobster linguine and was delighted to find huge chunks of freshly shelled tender lobster meat. The mascarpone/vegetable/bacon cream sauce over the black linguine was incredible. There was no pressure from the staff for us to leave once we finished and stayed for a bit to reminisce with friends.And for our seventh visit, I hereby leave this additional review: You must visit this restaurant to get the full experience as my reviews wont quite do justice. Request Emilio to be your waiter. Absolutely wonderful experience. Starts with the cheerful welcome and then the food. We have been reserving 2 pm late lunch so we are not inundated by the out the door dinner lines! My three guests during this latest visit were thrilled with their perfectly prepared salmon and dinner salad suggestions. I again had the lobster linguine and its as though the chef placed an entire lobster tail and claw in the delicious linguine and sauce. Very generous and most highly appreciated. We stayed and enjoyed a wonderful conversation and none of the staff rushed us to depart!! They were so friendly and wonderful and made us feel like we owned the restaurant for that short period of time. Thanks again, Emilio! We shall return again and again ~ and big-time compliments to the owner and manager for a perfectly run establishment. We love our neighborhood gem.

I celebrated my friend’s birthday party with total of 13 people. The food was great, waiter was really nice- he helped us set up the cake, took photo, and checked in regularly.However, the manager was super rude, we arrived there and he asked rudely how many people were there. We also bought a friend a whiskey and asked nicely whether we can have a shot for the sake of celebrating (it’s really ok if we are not allowed to, we understand). But the manager told us very rudely that we can’t do that and no restaurant will allow us to do that because “we have to pay for everything, the space, this (pointing at lights)” - instead of telling us nicely. Super dissatisfied with the manager, but food and service by the waiter were great.
