What People Are Saying About Pier 2110

Featured Review

In Short – The fruit of the ocean takes center stage in the decor and on the menu at this dynamic Harlem establishment. Sea-themed metallic tiles lines the ceilings and walls, highlighting the room's centerpiece: a curved sushi bar. Shellfish and fresh fish--including the restaurant's signature baked trout, made with crab and cornbread stuffing--dominate fancy dinner plates. Those seeking a more casual meal dine at the bar or eat in the lounge by the fire.

Editor's Tips

What to Drink:
The restaurant's candlelit lounge area buzzes during happy hour from 5pm to 7pm on weeknights. Sip on a $6 glass of house wine, an $8 martini or a $4 draft beer.
When to Go:
Starting at 7pm, Thursday is ladies night--featuring live music and two-for-one drinks.
The Extras:
Tuesdays also feature live blues and jazz bands.
Brunch:
Sunday brunch (including an appetizer, entree, cocktail and coffee) is a decadent steal at $25.
ambiance
100.0% positive
  1. Wonderful ambiance, atmosphere and staff
  2. My first time here, celebrating my mother's birthday and I felt underdressed, the decor is beautiful and so welcoming.
  3. My friend and I attended the soft opening last Thursday, the moment we walked into this establishment we were blown away by the decor, it gives you a very comfortable, yet exotic feeling.
  4. The decor is Miami chic, which is fine if that's your speed, but the overly loud and obnoxious music in the lounge area nearly keeps you from enjoying a decent dinner in the restaurant portion.

At last... they got it right!!!CANT WAIT TO GO BACK

by devonwhite at Citysearch

i've dined at pier2110 3 times to date...and quite honestly, i didnt know what to think of it...My first time there, the restaurant itself looked great, while the service and food were at most, above average...also, the prices were a bit too high for my taste..i was somewhat satisfied...my second visit was a bit more enjoyable...the staff seemed more organized and the food tasted great...but still, the prices were too high...

i recently dined again @pier 2110..and i can finally say that...I LOVED IT..the service was remarkable...the staff showed professionalism and courtesy while still working tirelessly and diligently..the menu was new along with the Head Chef..francios doku?from Spagos or something...i heard he was world renown or something..i believe it...THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS...and best of all..the prices were affordable this time..CANT WAIT TO GO BACK!!! =D

$15 for a martini?

by wowkfj at Citysearch

Went last night to give it a try. Nice restaurant for Harlem, about average for all of Manhattan. Don't look for the 'signature dish' described in the editor's review. It was no where to be found. The same for the sushi. The sushi bar was closed - at 7p.m. on a Saturday night. If this is your claim to fame - where was it? The food was average at best. I had the special- mussels in a spicy red sauce. My date had the shrimp alfreado. They were certainly not the jumbo shrimps named on the menu. Medium at best. But the kicker was $15 for a green apple martini. Are you kidding me? We had 4 drinks that added $60- to the tab. Not worth the trip. I can get this anywhere.

  • Pros: nice place for uptown
  • Cons: overpriced drinks, average short menu, average food

very Average. nothing special

by icandyxtc at Citysearch

Sooo... The first time my boyfriend and i walked in there you would have thought we walked in there half-naked the way the hostess looked us up and down. It was right before dinner, and she informed us it would be a hour wait. so we decided to leave.

On another night, we went shopping (Mony's was having a 50% off EVERYTHING sale) So we worked up a appitite. When we walked in it was a diffrent person seating people, and he was really nice. Its a beautiful place, and the bathroom is like something out of a magazine!

Our waitress was nice, she was attentive, but not knowledgable. After looking over the menu and working up a appitie for sushi we were informed the sushi guy was off until the weekend! we put in our order for our entrees and she came back to the table not once, but TWICE to inform me they ran out of what i orderd! i settled for the red snapper with mashed potatoes (which were poorly seasoned). but i have to admit they were the BEST collard greens ive had in a very long time, better then most of the soul food restaurants in the area, and very close to home.

we finished off our meal with the fruit sorbet which was OK, but nothing special. I would recommend this place if your hungry and in the area...but be prepared to pay. its not cheap.

o and they say theyre open late but after 11pm the only part open is the bar and they only serve hourdorves.

  • Pros: Location...not many sit down seafood places uptown
  • Cons: Service and selection

Not bad but needs work!!

by nycgal2heart at Citysearch

Ok..so i tried this place on Saturday for my best freinds birthday who was in town for the weekend from Georgia.When we walked in the place we were impressed by the decor.But then it was all downhill from there.The waiter was not very knowledgeable of the menu's items.I ask if the Ceaser salad came with anchovies and was told yes.I asked for extra!, when my salad finally arrived it was dry!No dressing,no cheese, and no anchovies!My best freinds Calmari was cold,and her Crab cakes were okay.The spicy tuna was way to spicy to even enjoy and the spider roll was ruined with some special sauce!All in all not a bad place to eat.But they do have some kinks to work out!

  • Pros: Location,you can get Sushi in Harlem!
  • Cons: Pricey.service

Don't Even Think About It!!

by adpatrick at Citysearch

This restaurant should be embarrassed to be open. I'm surprised there were any good reviews after the opening. The decor is Miami chic, which is fine if that's your speed, but the overly loud and obnoxious music in the lounge area nearly keeps you from enjoying a decent dinner in the restaurant portion. The service is horrendous, past the coat check girl, as the thoroughly unattentive waiters don't know whats on the menu, they're uneducated as to what they do and don't have in stock on the wine list, and they don't know the difference between a pinot grigio and a chardonnay and ... ( the list goes on ) they also aren't savvy enough to even recite the year and the vintage. After a $200 meal that was served cold, wrong several times, and improperly cooked, I would encourage anyone with even moderate tastebuds to run. There are far finer establishments in Harlem and other parts of the city that will welcome your open wallet with more than a laundry list of excuses and forgotten utensils, not to mention the MANDATORY 18% gratuity for service ill delivered. I love Terrence Howard's picture on the door, but it was probably taken before they served him hell's platter.

  • Pros: If you like the Miami club scene, you may like the decor.
  • Cons: Cold, Greasy and Tasteless Food, Service, Attentive and Educated Waiters, a non-existant wine list
