The Scene
Owner Andrew Silverman (City Crab, Steak Frites) has developed a reputation for theme- and decor-driven restaurants that manage to exceed expectations for food and service. An avid collector of Americana, Silverman designed the Chat 'n' Chew space in a way that recalls a slightly bumpkinish country diner.
The Food
The menu continues the down-home theme, with solid versions of cream of sweet potato soup, chicken pot pie and macaroni and cheese. Those who crave a year-round tryptophan fix will find much to love in the Thanksgiving on a Roll--a turkey sandwich loaded with stuffing and cranberry sauce. To drink, splurge on a $5.75 milkshake, or opt for the bottomless cups of soda avidly and infinitely refilled by cheery waitresses.

The Food is decent but the Waitresses rush you out the Restaurant. My Friend and I ordered one appetizer and two entrees. We weren't even halfway done with the appetizer when our entrees arrived. Before we were even done with our entrees, the Busboy had come over at least three times to take our plates. Waitress was unfriendly and had a scowl on her face the entire time (like she'd rather be getting a root canal). From sitting down and ordering to paying the check was a total of 35 minutes. Completely ridiculous!!! Quite an unpleasant dining experience!! I will not be returning any time soon.

Delicious food,fabulous music and a casual,friendly atmosphere made for a terrific birthday dinner at Chat'N"Chew .My friend,boyfriend and I started the night with a round of margaritas and two appetizers:the onion ribbons and macaroni and cheese.The onion ribbons were addictive and the mac and cheese was just as tasty as my friend Carolyn described.For dinner I enjoyed the bit with sweet potato fries while my boyfriend ordered the TV dinner,which was presented in a ceramic TV tray-very kitchy and kute.I couldn't stop picking at the green bean casserole on his plate .And although we were stuffed,we had to peruse the dessert menu,having heard their cakes and pies were not to be missed.After much deliberation,we all decided to share a slice of Vesuvious and a slice of apple crumb pie-a la mode of course.I don't know which I enjoyed more-the savory dinner or rich ,sweet desserts.However,what is perhaps equally important to me is prompt and friendly service.Our server tended to all our requests with haste and good humor,which has been consistent each sunsequent time i have visited.Satisfied w/such a marvelous experience has me pointing everyone i know in the direction of Chat'n Chew.

I love this place! The food is delicious and perfect for the chilly weather, the ambience is character filled and charming and the servers are great! They are friendly, fun, and entertaining. The prices are excellent, especially for the portions and how delicious the food is. I have tried and loved uncle red's addicition, the delicious mac and cheese, the holy cow burger and the veggoe chili (my favorite). By far one of the best finds for cheap eats and friendly service in NYC. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to feel like they're at a home away from home!
