What People Are Saying About Eat Gourmet Foods

In Short
It's a bakery, takeout place and cafe all in one. Prices and quality are upscale, thanks to dishes prepared using the ingredients stocked at Eli Zabar's gourmet food empire (Eli's Bread, Eli's Vinegar Factory, etc.--although descended from the West Side founders of Zabar's, he isn't affiliated with that store.) A checkered floor, black tables and mirrors decorate the small dining room, which attracts Upper East Side residents and tourists for sandwiches, salads and the "tower of bagel," as well as for the dinner menu's steak, grilled stuffed salmon and chicken paillard.

One reviewer said that you are better off on the market side than the restaurant side. It's just as expensive. My girlfriend ordered chicken salad, bread salad and a loaf of bread and it came to $77. Our mouthed dropped when she told us how much it was - we just left. What's in the food, the body of Christ?

My friends and I decided to give E.A.T. a shot cos it was close to the MET Museum where we were going and really regretted going there. The decor was kinda cool, but the food was so ridiculously priced. Expensive food is ok if it's good, but their food was definitely mediocre at best. We walked past a diner on our way there, and we were left wondering why we didn't just go to the diner as we were walking out of E.A.T.

E A T Gourmet foods is a fantastic place to pick up some sandwichs or other prepared foods. The prices are high, but the food is really good. The bread is the most fantastic and famous part of the Eli Zabar family. You won't be disappointed. I've been told that their tuna salad sandwich is the best in the world. How can you not run over right now and try it?
