The Scene – The name references 18th-century private homes that also served food and the traditional, highly personalized spirit is central to this Five Points offshoot. Big gleaming windows frame its modern-farmhouse interior, consisting of wood-slatted ceilings, sturdy white-topped tables, and stone floors. The communal vibe draws table-hopping London Terracers and destination gourmands. – – The Food – Certified humane meats and fertilizer-free veggies encourage clean, farm-fresh flavors; a grill, rotisserie and wood-fired oven ensure homespun execution; and smart…
extremely welcoming

I think you can tell a lot about a restaurant by how they treat single diners. Cookshop is unfailingly cordial and welcoming--even encouraging me to linger when it's clear that my table will soon be needed by an actual couple. The service is gracious and low-key. No attitude here. And the food is terrific. Fish is always a good choice, and the wild nettle risotto is the best risotto I've had anywhere in the city. Although I hadn't planned on dessert last night, it was such a lovely evening to sit outdoors, and it is peach season after all, so the warm peach cobbler sounded like a wonderful idea with some green tea. "The table is yours for as long as you'd like," said my server. When it got too dark to read anymore of my New Yorker, it was time to go. I was there 1 3/4 hours and had a perfect meal. It wasn't the first time, and it certainly won't be the last.
- Pros: everything
- Cons: none
nice location, sub par food
by dcinnyc
the place is lovely at night - esp if you get a seat on the terrace. but the food last night lacked any subtlety - greasy does not begin to describe it. green beans and spinach drenched in not-too-good oil, and soggy polenta sticks. some bizarre acidy taste to the dips... drinks are delightful and so is the service tho. and great location by the highline. but if you want a decent meal... go elsewhere
- Pros: location and service
- Cons: the food at dinner
Absolute worst. Go to Olive Garden for better food/service.
