Just Excellent
Kutsher's is one of the most innovative and inviting restaurants in New York. They completely reinvent Jewish classics while keeping the tradition of the food. This isn't your grandmother's Kutsher's, but it's definitely an homage. I recommend the crisipy artichokes, salmon and knish, matzo brei and friday night chicken.

Save your $20 and go to a corner deli
Just ordered the KT pastrami. The first bad sign was the Dr. Browns soda was not in a can but in a plastic cup. By the time I got back to the office it was watery. The KT pastrami was just unappetizing - dry stringy.Fries are ok but not worth the trip.

Very satisfied
Glad made the trip downtown to check out this new/old food restaurant. Heard mixed reviews but companion and I were very pleased especially with the relaxed atmosphere and goodies like their Artichokes alla Judea and the potato pancakes/latkes. Roumanian Steak was like "butta". Knish odd tasting and the signature sundae dessert no big whoop, but we still give it a "2 thumbs up" for the whole experience.

Decent food
The food was good, not amazing but good. Recommended are crispy artichoke salad, meatballs. The meat dishes (lamb and shortribs) were better than salmon. Didn't think the salmon was flavorful, nor was it rare as I had requested. Maybe not that fresh. The falafel crust wasn't crusty, kind of soggy and didnt taste like falafel. Lastly, apple crumble and babka bread pudding were the best desserts. My husband & I go out all the time to top restaurants in NYC, this was a large group for my brother's birthday. We ordered 2 bottles of wine and had 8 people. The waitstaff, in general, were surprisingly blasé . After our desserts arrived, I tried to explain to our waiter that we had meant to only order one rainbow cookie Sunday (I specifically had asked for a recommendation for a replacement). Instead of being gracious and apologizing, he started to argue with me. Wow! My 12 year old commented, that was so weird, he should have just said he was sorry. He charged us for both on the bill which was over $500. I doubt the real Kutshers treated its customers like that.

No Good
We started with the artichokes which were good and the potato pancakes which were tasteless. Seriously, how could caviar not have any taste but theirs did. I then had the reuben which was so highly touted. It's not worth the calories, cholesterol or ordering as it is nothing more than greasy bread. The other dishes weren't much better and not worth my time to discuss. Lastly, the service was a rude waiter who thought he was just a little to cool. Do us all a favor and shut it down and start again.

Nostalgia
Fabulous pastrami sandwich! Lots of nostalgia. The food was better than it had to be. The place is beautiful--clean and modern but comfy. Definitely worth a try.How much you like it depends on your Jewish background and memory.
