Pier 701 Restaurant Bar

Five stars for the view. Four stars for the food. Four stars for the service. Two stars for the ridiculous policies around credit card fees, time limits, forced gratuities, and a limit on how much you can split a check. One star for the forced valet parking. The view is really stunning and the food was very good. I had oysters, a wedge salad, and the skirt steak. They ran out of the short rib. All was very tasty and well-cooked, except for the oysters and lettuce, which were appropriately raw. I had to ask for horseradish for the oysters and was promptly accommodated. It's a great night out with a great atmosphere if you can stomach the other downers. Parking is valet only and ridiculously s...

This place has so much potential given the beautiful views. But we encountered a couple of issues during our dining visit. The service here is slow but once we had our drinks it was fine. We ordered wings and they weren't that good. Once we got the wings we were swarmed by 4-6 bees. They kept on coming. We couldn't even eat anymore because there was too many of them. Not only the bees but the lantern flies made it an unenjoyable dining experience. Not sure if we'd come back but it's a good place to just grab drinks and enjoy the view. Manager was nice enough to take the wings off given that we couldn't even eat them due to the bees. So we appreciated that.

We cane here for fathers day lunch made reservations. They take your cc for reservations just in case you cancel- they will charge you. We tried to add a 7th person on our reservation after it was made and they said no but when we got there they had a seat available which wasn't right because our 7th party didn't come since they told us we couldn't be accommodated. All of that aside, we had a great experience and server. The food was amazing and we tried literally half the menu since you get a set 3 course meal for special occasions, which is a great idea! The view we had outside was breathtaking and it was such a perfect day!

We've been here a few other times and really enjoyed it so decided to come back for lunch on Saturday afternoon. The ambiance is great being right along the Hudson River and views of the Mario Cuomo bridge. We got seated right away . Our waiters must of been new. My husband ordered the angus burger with Swiss cheese medium well It came out well and the bun was too thick. I ordered the lobster sliders with sweet potatoe fries and got regular fries but then he bought out what I ordered. The sliders were good and was a fair price. It's a great spot and will go back. Check it out

Lovely place with valet, gorgeous views, good food and in a great location. Service was just meh but all else as perfect! The views good and drinks were enjoyed by all. Definitely a nice place to celebrate a family or friends gathering, enjoy a romantic date night or just relax and enjoy the views. Can also sit at the bar and enjoy the lovely scenery. Valet parking is a plus!
