    We ate here on a Friday night in Dec, had reservations at 6:30. after we visited the Empire State Bldg. We got there 30 min earlier at 6 pm & they seated us. I appreciated that it was nice little place with some ambiance & a menu for adults plus children. We had good service and everyone liked their food, we ordered burgers, steak salad & Chicken tenders. It was sort of hard to find it we asked Macy’s staff for help, take elevator to the bottom floor and walk through the huge section of men’s boxers & underwear and it’s around the corner up a few stairs.

    Really enjoyed the food! The burger sliders and sweet potato fries were amazing. Typically, I don’t enjoy buffalo wings, but the ones from here were pretty good. I wouldn’t recommend getting any of their beverages besides water or soda. The peach iced lemonade I got had no taste at all.

    The best food I’ve have had in a while. The chef was amazing at making the seafood meal. Tasty and melt in your mouth. Stephanie the waiter who served me was amazing, knowledgeable about the menu and exceptional customer service and table etiquette. Highly recommend this place. One happy belly who will be back.

    Popular stop at the lower level of Macys,on W34th St., Pric fixe meals @ $32, spirits & cocktails at the bar, gracious Asian hostess walks one to a comfortable seat,start with the pull apart onion bread served in its cast iron baking dish, stays warm for a long time,unstained silvers, cloth napkins usher high impression & unique expectations, attentive servers,family friendly, enjoy simple salad withjust enough dressing for the salt conscious patron. Moderate capacity for private events.

    The server was our favorite part of this entire dinging experience. It was hard to find and figure out the right way to get to them if you haven’t been to the place before. But the food was good!

  • Review 6 (2022-12-16 - Rating: 4)

    Excellent service, clean atmosphere..I had turkey club which was very good and I would recommend. My friend had a cheeseburger which was just okay and I wouldnt recommend it was a small pre made frozen bugwr - could of and should of been much better.

  • Review 7 (2023-08-21 - Rating: 5)

    My partner and I went here for dinner and we both got the Barbecue chicken flat bread and Rollies loaded burger for restaurant week! Recommendation - remove the pineapples from the flat bread!!! It adds a zesty flavor and not the kind we enjoy ✋I ordered the raspberry iced tea while he got the Pink lemonade. Both were SO YUMMY SHEEEEEESH.This was our first time here and the waiters were SO. NICE. Loved the service!

    Excellent food, great service!Thank you Francisco, excellent service.

  • Review 10 (2024-01-07 - Rating: 4)

    Restaurant located inside Macys (one below level). I went on Saturday, around 1.30pm, and I found a very small queue (just two couples waiting before us). I dont know if it is possible to make a reservation, but it would be a good idea to check. I went because it was a rainy day, and after shopping in Macys, it was the best place to stay and have lunch (in the meantime the rain stops a little). We got a place very quickly, but because we chose the bar, however, other people who wanted a table had to wait more (very strange because I saw several empty tables). As a tip, if you order a club sandwich, try one for two people, because the portion is quite big. Being in the bar, the attention was good and kind.

  • Review 16 (2024-10-21 - Rating: 5)

    This place exceeded our expectations of a restaurant inside a department store... At the lower level, no less... Amazing deal at $32 for an appetizer and an entree... Salmon, chicken, burger are the options... Fresh guac or onion soup are options for appetizers... Relaxing laid back atmosphere... Away from the hustle and bustle of the store... Friendly and efficient staff... Yummy food.

    Some of the best service I have ever had from a restaurant. The staff were very friendly and nice, and so naturally, the food and atmosphere came along with the good vibes. 10/10 would recommend :)

  • Review 22 (2024-09-16 - Rating: 5)

    A great place to grab a couple of beers whilst the ladies shopped. The barman, Hector, is a great guy and is a font of local knowledge. Hes definitely worth talking to if you are looking for ideas of where to eat and drink in NYC. The IPA was very drinkable.

  • Review 23 (2022-10-15 - Rating: 5)

    This place is amazing. The food and drinks are delicious and the service is always on point. If you go ask for Steven at the bar or Kim they are the best and always so attentive. Don’t forget to order the wings they are to die for. Ohh and the sliders…

  • Review 24 (2024-07-06 - Rating: 5)

    Hector was our Bartender ! Hector provided great service and that was a pleasant surprise! It’s so challenging to get superior service or someone who enjoys their job! The chicken wings were great thanks to the cook. It’s also challenging to find properly cooked and seasoned food!My friend and I were at Rowland Bar and grill for 4 hours while our wives enjoyed Macy’s department store. Oh by the way, it was the best way to wait for our wives as well as walk around New York! Great Afternoon!

  • Review 27 (2017-04-05 - Rating: 4)

    This place was great! Love the atmosphere, very intimate and clean. Staff was friendly, food was delicious, service was awesome. Prices are reasonable. Bonus - happy hour on weekends too! Did not get 5 stars because bathroom is in another location outside of restaurant. After walking in the Javitz center all day, then walking to Rowlands, I was not in the mood to walk any further to the restroom.

  • Review 28 (2018-12-28 - Rating: 4)

    Nice little bar in the Macys basement. Great place to take a break from the shopping or wait while others shop. Service is excellent.

    Great place to get a burger or salad. It can get a little crowded and loud at times, but that is to be expected in the lower level if the highest grossing department store in the USA.

    Did restaurant week menu. I would never think that a restaurant inside a Macys would be my cup of tea. But it was a breath of fresh air from the midtown Madness. James was my bartender server and was great! Attentive and had great suggestions. If you are shopping at Macys or just need an oasis in midtown come down to Rowlands

    Best chicken and waffles thatll make you want to lick the plate. Our waiter was great and offered great feedback and suggestions. He recommended the salmon dish and it was incredible as they didnt overcook it as requested and the rice was just a great. Their prices are more than fair for a great tasting fresh meal...especially when you can average $10+ for fast-food.. Cannot wait to return..almost wish they were in FL.

  • Review 80 (2018-04-05 - Rating: 4)

    What a surprise, this stylishly decorated restaurant in a department store. Not comparable to, for example, Flip in Bloomingdales (which looks more like a canteen)Super good coffee, tasty beer and friendly employees. The chicken wings have a decent smoky flavor (fine for me, too much for my wife)... a little less smoke powder next time.Take a break between shopping in this beautiful store, sit back and enjoy.
