Carolyn Miller
Great vibe, low lighting, vinyl records on the walls as well as vintage posters. The service was spot on and the food came out quickly. We loved the appetizers/ the ricotta platter was amazing and the kale salad was delicious. Our steaks were cooked perfectly. No complaints from anyone. We will be back.
Charlie O'Neill
We had an amazing experience with a group of 6. Kyle was top notch guiding us through the menu and pairing wines with steaks. The meal was excellent. Service incredible. Really caring about the guest experience. The vibe was expected to be cool at a place like this with the 3000 records and cool decor. The food, drink and dining definitely match it. I will be going back and recommending to others. Crispy sushi was popular dish but I would skip and focus on steaks and sides. Everything was tasty but especially loved that aspect of the meal. Bone marrow butter is big enough to split between two people. Thank you for an excellent experience

This restaurant was an awesome experience. You walk in and the first thing you notice is a wall of vinyl records. Cozy place. The food was a little overpriced but it was really good. Started with the short rib potstickers and then shared the 25 oz flat iron steak. The drinks were amazing and our server Christian was very friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend as a date night or go with a group of friends.

Dining at Vinyl is more than just a meal—it's an experience that blends elevated American cuisine with a love for music. From the moment you walk in, the warm ambiance is complemented by the classic albums playing in the background. What makes Vinyl truly special is its interactive approach: guests are invited to choose the music from their impressive vinyl collection, adding a personal touch to the evening. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every dish, from perfectly cooked steaks to the side offerings, was executed with care and sophistication (Our fave were the green beans and truffle Mac and cheese). It’s American food, but on a whole new level. Pair that with attentive service and an atmosphere that feels quintessentially New York, and you have a dining experience that’s nothing short of memorable. I finally understand the hype. Vinyl isn’t just a steakhouse; it’s a celebration of great food, music, and the vibrant culture of NYC. Whether you’re a foodie, a music lover, or simply looking for a unique spot, Vinyl hits all the right notes.

Immaculate vibes. Extraordinary beef meets counterculture cool. Every meal tells its own story at Vinyl, set to the perfect soundtrack. Suits and t shirts coexist here in perfect harmony. The wines are paired perfectly to your plate and preference. Steak was cooked to perfection. The service is top notch. Not stuffy. Not transactional, instead it was conversational and welcoming.

Went here for pur anniversary this year and had the best service from Brittany! She knew the menu inside and out and gave us stellar recommendations. Everything we had was delicious! We started with a wedge salad, had steaks, green beans and the truffle mac n cheese. Its a meal I wish I could eat twice! They even let us pick tune for our special day. They were kind enough to let us stay a little after closing to finish our drinks. This restaurant was such a vibe, would love to come again if we're ever in town!

Prepare to be WOWED! All-Star Food, All-Star Service, ALL-STAR EVERYTHING! "Listen up, folks! If you're looking for the absolute PERFECT dining experience, stop scrolling and book a table NOW! My wife and I, visiting from Atlanta, stumbled upon this gem based on its proximity to our hotel and the glowing reviews – and let me tell you, those reviews were spot-on! From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty. Charlie, our incredible Italian host, rolled out the red carpet with a level of warmth and hospitality that's practically unheard of! But the VIP treatment didn't stop there. We were then graced with a personal visit from Sebastian, the restaurant manager, who not only gave us a heartfelt welcome but also shared fascinating stories about the location's history and exciting news about their upcoming Italian-themed venture! And just when we thought it couldn't get any better, the owner, Kevin, himself came to our table! He took the time to genuinely connect with us, making us feel like valued guests and friends. This level of personal attention is simply unparalleled. Now, let's talk about the FOOD! Oh, the FOOD! Prepare for a culinary explosion! We indulged in the magnificent cowboy ribeye (tomahawk), and it was cooked to absolute perfection – melt-in-your-mouth delicious! The mashed potatoes and mac and cheese? Forget about it! Pure, unadulterated comfort food bliss! As someone who is notoriously critical, I can honestly say I have ZERO complaints. Every single bite was a masterpiece. The vibe? Electric! The food? Unforgettable! The service? Legendary! This place is a MUST-VISIT! We're already counting down the days until our next trip, because we're coming straight back here! Do yourself a favor and experience this culinary magic – you won't regret it!"

At first glance, you might assume a restaurant called Vinyl, featuring a floor-to-ceiling wall of vintage LPs, is just a gimmick. However, you'd be mistaken. From the moment you’re welcomed by the staff, the exceptional service is evident—something that seems to be lacking in many places today. This relaxed and stylish restaurant provides everything you desire in a dining experience. The menu is thoughtfully crafted with creative dishes that offer unique surprises, like the delicious bone marrow corn. The decor showcases genuine art, creating an inviting atmosphere. Even when busy, the noise level remains manageable, allowing for enjoyable conversation. It’s the perfect blend—sexy enough for a date night yet cozy enough to become your go-to neighborhood spot. I highly recommend it!
