    A few friends and I went here last night. It was nice. Host was very welcoming and cracked a few jokes even. The rose lemonade was wonderful. The server was kind of rude but she was helpful so I guess. We tipped her nicely and went on about our day. Our total for 8 people was $413.51 so it wasn’t the WORST. I had the cheese burger and it was delectable. And there were wonderful fries on the side. Over all the place was pretty good. A downside may be the small unisex bathroom that they have though and the lights are a little TOO dark. There’s also no real space to take a nice photo of yourself. But overall it was nice and we all had a good time :)

    Alright food, nothing to write home about. I began my meal with a warm cup of Earl Grey tea with cream, followed by the Scrambled Eggs dish ($15.00) that comes with roasted pepper potato hash, challah toast and mixed greens. I added two patties of Italian sausage (+$6.00). Nothing special, really. Even though it was beautifully presented, the dish lacked any flavor and I never got a chance to ask for any hot sauce because our waiter didn't check on us (it was busy, and they were probably short staffed). I asked for jam to spread on my toast but it never came. My total came out to $28.85 before the tip, incredibly cheap by New York standards. My friend ordered the Skillet Baked Eggs (Italian sausage, crispy prosciutto, tomato, pepper, potato hash, $22.00). Pretty cool. The eggs come raw and literally cook on the super hot skillet while you mix it and eat it. She liked it quite a bit.

    Visited after a Broadway show. Service was great and loved the atmosphere. The food was very good but the portions were a bit small compared to cost. But hey, welcome to NYC I suppose. I was most impressed by the Bond Old Fashioned. Chocolate bitters sounded hit or miss, but it was definitely a hit!

    The food is delicious and the atmosphere is amazing. What makes it even better is the service provided by the waiters. If you are looking for great Italian food this is the place to go. The homemade pasta was wonderful and cooked to perfection. And the chicken was so tender I couldn't stop eating it. We got the 12 inch mozzarella stick which was so delicious and didn't have the heaviness of most fried foods. Definitely a great place to try!

    It started off well with our waiter, however when they asked whether we wanted bottled water or tap. We chose tap and their attitude changed for the worst. Our waiter was extremely rude and condescending. Apparently this restaurant cannot split checks, they are unable to put an alcoholic beverage in a taller glass. It's also impossible for them to take strawberries off of the cheesecake. The waitress snatched our appetizer plates from our table since we didn't order any. I had the hamburger ($28) and they couldn't even cook it correctly, ordered it medium and was rare. Food was flavorless. Had a lil squirt of sauce and day old ketchup. Do not go to this restaurant unless you have money to waste and prefer rude service.

    This place is a staple when visiting town square! I’ve been here twice and plan on making a stop again next time I visit NYC. It’s within walking distance of Times Square and the ambience is everything! From delicious food&drinks to great staff. It is worth visiting when in New York.

    We just stopped in for a drink and were very surprised with this place. The service was great and very friendly, and the atmosphere was unique. After we left, everyone mentioned how they loved the atmosphere.

    This required eatery in the restored Edison Hotel is a Broadway staple and landmark. The Fireman Hospitality Group has some of the best eateries in Midtown, and Shelly has exquisite tastes. Or is it his wife? Don't know. Regardless, you will not leave disappointed. The staff are the best in midtown. This is an ideal place for theatre dining.

    Would have been perfect of they served bread! Many luminaries dine here and there name plaques grace the wall! Great staff and menu! Have to rub the butt for good luck! Awesome desserts!

    Service was swift, all team members were pleasant...even when the waiter was taking a while to assist, the maitre'd stepped in and served us. The pasta and sauce were delicious but the chicken lacked flavoring and texture- it tasted like chicken out of the can. The salad was referred to my sister and I by guests who were leaving and I was pleased I listened! My sister had octopus and she thoroughly enjoyed it! One major setback is 1 restroom, I know space is limited in NYC but a restroom is essential with a place as busy as this. The good thing is, they are efficient and quick with service.

    Delicious food and prompt service even for large parties. The burrata salad was scrumptious. The dessert cake slices were generous too, unfortunately taste was too sweet and I was too full by dessert to really finish! Good impressions overall.

    I would definitely not come back here. The food was bad. The Caesar salad didn't have any dressing on it and then when we mentioned it the waiter commented how they can give us MORE sauce. Excuse me there was no sauce on it, own up to your mistake. The $27 carbonara is a scam, 4 small chunks of meat and not a good egg/cheese/pasta water ratio. I asked the waiter again for some red pepper flakes and they never brought them. The mozzarella stick was okay but again way overpriced for what it was.

    Thankfully they were able to seat us as walk ins for an early dinner. The atmosphere is great, and they tended to the customers quickly. The server was so kind and made multiple recommendations. I got the prosciutto and arugula pizza and my friend got the chicken cutlet (not pictured) which was probably the size of my head. A bit on the pricey side but what else do you expect so close to Times Square.

    From the start, my spicy margarita was delicious! I was then so impressed with the garlic bread. Followed by that was my black truffle ravioli which is one of the best meals I've ever had. The sauce was so light but so full of flavor! I loved every bit of it!

    I’m blown away by the amount of good reviews for this place. We went to celebrate our anniversary and were so disappointed. Traveled an hour and a half and chose this restaurant not only because it was in the theatre district but because we saw some IG/ Tik Tok posts that looked promising. Boy were we wrong! The service was horrible. Our waiter couldn’t care less about us and definitely didn’t hide the fact that he was uninterested. His tone seemed to change after we said we didn’t want to purchase bottled water. I had to ask him twice for lemons when there were only two other tables seated at the time. The calamari appetizer came to the table and immediately we were greeted with an unpleasant aroma. It smelled extremely fishy. Both of our entrees were served barely lukewarm. Literally a meatball that was cold on the inside on top of lasagna that had a bechamel sauce that had tasted as if it had gone bad. Possibly the worst anniversary dinner we’ve ever had. It was a Tuesday at 4:30 so idk if it was because of that or what. Either way, I do not recommend!

    Everything was great here, the food was good, the cocktails were delicious. It was warm, booths were cozy and service was attentive. It was Monday so slower than usual. Would definitely recommend.

    This place was conveniently located near our hotel, we stopped in for a mid day snack before our travels. We settled on the giant meatball and 12 inch mozzarella stck. I can't recall the cut of meat that the meatball was made from but it was flavorful and moist, the marinara sauce was also bursting with freshness and robust flavor! Next time in NYC I will definitely be dining here!

    Loved this place. Went in for lunch on a weekday so it wasn't overly crowded. Peter took good care of me. I had the short rib meatballs and the pepperoni pizza with hot honey. Both were delicious; the pizza was special!

  • 5/5 Matt S. 5 months ago on Google • 103 reviews
    This is a great pre- and post-theater spot just off Broadway, directly across from the Richard Rodgers theater. There really aren’t many places open after a show (that aren’t chains or fast-food), and they stay open until 11pm. We had the pepperoni pizza and their famous chocolate mousse. The pizza was big enough for two people to share easily, and filled us both up. It’s a cracker-thin crust that lets the toppings really shine. The mousse was delicious, but nothing radically different than you could get other places. Great service, and no wait at 10pm on a weekday.

    This is a great place to come to when doing a play and/or if you want decent Italian food with no surprises, that will hit the spot. Bond 45 is located in the Edison hotel, very close to Times Square. For drinks, had the Bond Spritz and the Bond Cup (?). Forgot name of the second drink. Both drinks were on the sweet side. Our waiter was attentive, and quick without being annoying. For food we had the lasagna, two meatballs and a mozzarella stick. All meals were good and yummy. Only thing I found odd was that we weren't served bread prior to our meals. Other than that, meals and service were great. Seems like they always take in walk-in customers, as it's a pretty large place

    Had a wonderful time grabbing dinner here before seeing New York New York on broadway. The food was awesome, and the desserts were amazing! The NY cheesecake is so big, yet so so delicious. The cannolis were great! Edit: our server was wonderful as well! Such a nice gentleman.

  • 4/5 Angie R. 2 years ago on Google
    Burrata ravioli 5 stars, pizza 4 stars, pesto 2 stars. Expensive and all dishes not equally good. The choc mousse was exquisite and sharable between 3 people.

    So what brought us here? Their "Bar Open All Day" sign did! We were a bit early for the Tina Turner musical next door at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater, my spouse spotted the sign and said "That's where we're going", LOL! ATMOSPHERE: It totally reminded me of the restaurant inside of Harrod's department store in London with its similar design cues and furnishings. We sat at the bustling bar that turned seats quickly. A portion of the bar featured a buffet of what looked like really good charcuterie. BEVERAGE: Bond Cup - $18.00 Got vodka? I'll take it! I thought I was back home in Hawaii with all of the floral decorations that adorned the drink, which was a purple orchid and slivered slice of dried pineapple that was reminiscent of a sunset or sunrise. I'm not a fan of pineapple but enjoyed the blend of tropical fruits. Peach Froze - $18.00 My spouse's and niece-in-law's selection. The spoonful I had of this red, icy daiquiri-like prosecco drink was really delish, and made me wish I had ordered this instead. Highly recommended. SERVICE: The bartenders were so personable and professional! What a great start prior to our Broadway show next door. Thanks, guys! OVERALL: I try to stay as far away from Times Square as possible but the convenience and great service of Bond 45 was a great choice! Pricey drinks but you gotta have fun and be carefree when on vacation.

    Wonderful Italian restaurant in the Theater District. Menu was extensive and it had something for each of our family members. We loved the thin crust Margarita Pizza and the Fettuccine with the Shrimp. Also the cheesecake was probably the best we ever had. better than Juniors!

  • 5/5 Theresa H. 8 months ago on Google
    We had a wonderful anniversary dinner here before our Broadway show. We had the Porterhouse for two and it was one of the best steaks we ever had. Luis, our server, was phenomenal.

  • 4/5 Darren C. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious Italian fare with veal and seafood options. The spacious two stories are great for a theater night out. I had a delicious roasted branzino with garlic spinach and started with some vegetable antipasti including cacio e pepe brussel sprouts and roasted carrots. They have a good cocktail menu, and the staff can get a little overly zealous pushing them. Expect Midtown prices, but I was happy with the food and service.

  • 3/5 Jason K. 2 years ago on Google
    Service pre theater was uneven. The server and captain recognized it and were apologetic and pleasant but still…at these prices. Chicken pepperoni parmigiana looked impressive but lacked seasoning. Lack of free bread at Italian restaurant doesn’t compute so we ordered the $8 garlic loaf that was skimpy with the garlic.

  • 4/5 Kisha J. 2 years ago on Google
    They do not serve bread! The garlic loaf is a must! So good! My companions weren’t really pleased but they also ordered something that wasn’t on the menu…Chicken Alfredo, so if you’re looking for that…keep looking! It was prepared for them BUT they both said it was bland & tasteless. I had the Spaghetti Carbonara and it was ok. The Spicy Margarita was fire! 🔥
