The meal that ate the weekend.... As a local, this place's fantastic location has made it an option even after one or two slightly overpriced, underwhelming food experiences.

Our most recent, and final, experience however left me laid up all weekend on the couch, running between the living room and bathroom.

Their latest health code violations (70!) says it all. Maybe a better restaurant could open in the space...

Miserable Experience. Did not enjoy lunch at all. Ordered the Salmon BLT, which sounded delicious but was just ok. Atmosphere made the experience miserable. Between the dozen pigeons surrounding the table, the loud, obnoxious girls besides us, and the screaming child behind us, it made for an unenjoyable meal. When we asked the hostess to move, she refused to let us switch tables because they were "busy" (there were 3 clearly open tables in that section of the restaurant alone). Will not dine here again.

Great Dining Experience. I stopped by for dinner here after River2River and was just taken away by this place. The service and the food were great, and pretty affordable such a beautiful space for the World Financial Center. I can't wait to come back!

Perfect spot in Nice Weather. This place has a great outdoor cafe along with nice indoor seating and bar. Especially nice on days with good weather, when you can fully appreciate the view of the river. I love bringing people here, and have enjoyed every meal at this place. Definately worth checking out.

Good Location and That's About It. Southwest gets by on its location. It's got the best views of any eatery in World Financial Center and it takes advantage of its captive audience of workers. They stay in business because it's the most convenient place to go after work. The food is only ok, but nothing exceptional. The wait staff seems a litte overwhelmed and getting refills can be tedious. They get a little surly at times, too. The worst part is that the inside smells like a dirty college bar. There's a stale beer smell like someone spilled booze on a rubber floor and never cleaned it up. It always stinks in there.

Great Veggie Burger!. The perfect veggie burger in between arepas. The arepa adds such a great flavor. Not your average veggie burger!

every dish was perfect. Just took my mom there this past weekend for her SW. It was recommended by a friend of mine. They have a nice location. We had two starters , the calamari and pork tacos. The calamari were definitely the best I've had. Very tender and fresh on the inside, and tasty on the outside. We tried two different main dishes, the pumpkin ravioli and skirt steak. They were all very good. All dishes had great presentation. To finish up we had a pumpkin cheese cake for desert.

The service was very good and the staff very friendly. We didn't have to wait too long for our dishes. Throughout the meal they kept the table clean by cleaning up after each course. The setting was quiet and dim, great for a family gathering or romantic dinner.

What a view!!. This place has the most amazing view in NYC!! During work hours I go to the retail area and pick up a salad and snack, always fresh with great customer service. After work, I go for the bar and the view. It's the perfect spot to chill out after work.

AMAZING MARGARITAS!. I went there last week for the 1/2 Price Drink Promo. It was amazing. All I had to do what sign up for their mailing list and show the promotion to the bartender. They have the best margaritas... and for 1/2 price, they are even better. The staff there is great, all of the hostesses are so friendly and willing to above and beyond. I am very excited that they decided to keep their promo through the rest of the month. I plan on going back!

Delicious with a Beautiful View. The food is so great here. The prices are amazing. The service is unbeatable. The view from the restaurant is absolutely stunning, especially at night with all of the boats and lights. Delivery is quick and convenient.
