Agern - New York

Beautiful, complementary foam water. unique menu not for everyone. they served us the wrong escape, but they did not offer to take it off from the bill.

The restaurant is a shadow of itself since the opening. foods are not so good and inventive. I had a duck for 44 and got 2 small discs escaped! weinliste is good and interesting. service was great. the restaurant was empty on Friday at 18.30

Agern has a nice dining room nice and surprisingly quiet, since it literally steps from one of the busiest corridors in the grand central station. the brot, the appetizers and the desserts were great when a little elborate. (the waiter has to explain what is all, both before and after arriving at the table. the escaped were a slight disappointment; good, but too hard to try to be imaginative and innovativ. the restaurant is incredibly comfortable for those who drive over subway north and perfect for a mid week celebration. frankly, if there were a bit cheaper, we would go there more often.

A unique place. Excellent and unusual food, perfect service, quiet. The only negative is the price of wine by the glass, which is much too high. But there is good beer at normal prices.

Our small office went to Agern for a staff birthday. All of the food was delicious. For first course, the treviso was great, as was the black bass and the beets. For the main, the arctic char, pork shoulder, and roasted chicken were all hits. We only got 2 desserts chocolate and blood orange but love them both. The plates are small, so a 3 course meal is not filling at all. But the flavors are so complex, it's a very satisfying meal. Also, try the non alcoholic cocktails! The spring tonic, made with ginger beer, was my fave. Others enjoyed the shrubs.
