One of my favorite restaurants moves uptown
Couldnt disagree with the previous review more. They brought everything I love about the original smith to the new Midtown location. Service was great, Food was excellent, and I love the big open space!

I prefer the downtown location, but this is a welcome addition to the nieghborhood
My wife and I have been to The Smith's downtown location a solid 15 times (At this point, we've both had birthday dinners there). The midtown version is very similar, though not the same vibe. It feels a bit more afterwork/happy hour, and a lot less East Village. The food, as always, is excellent, and we have pretty much enjoyed everything on the menu. I think they have the best NY Strip in the city for the money. A word to the wise for fans of the village location's bacon cheeseburger- it is not the same. They've changed the burger; it's definitely way smaller. This location is really, really loud by the bar; so if you are trying to have dinner conversation, get a table in the rear. As with its sister location, you will never be taken on time for your reservation, so just accept the extra 10-15 minute wait. I guess the difference between the locations is more the crowd than the restaurant itself. We will still continue to go come here, as it’s right around the corner from our apartment.

Brand new with a lot to learn...
My friend and I went for dinner the 3rd night they were open for business. The waiter could not have been lovelier. My mussel dish was very spicy (not in the description) and MANY were unopened. They did not charge me for the entree. The drinks (cocktails) appeared not to have any liquor in them and arrived VERY slowly. (The bar's fault...not the waiter's, or so I was told.) My friend's Ahi Tuna Salad looked and tasted as if it came out of a bag. Perhaps that is why there was a ton of dressing on it? When the Bus Boy delivered the salad, his thumb was in it. Would that affect the flavor or your mood or perhaps both?The Bus Boy(s ) came over time and again to remove plates that were not ready to be removed. The physical plant is attractive; white tile and wood. If you are looking for quiet and cozy, this not the place for you. I can imagine the bar 5 deep with lots of 20 and 30 somethings having the time of their life. I would limit my alcohol intake to wine and beer or watch the bartender as he mixes your drink...I always thought cocktail implied liquor was present....
