  14. Philip Marie is a spectacular restaurant
    My family, friends and I have been coming to Philip Marie for years and it is one of our favorites. The food is unique and delicious and we have grown quite a fondness for the staff. Recently they had a Mardi Gras party (our 2nd time attending) and it was fantastic. They had an amazing band (the gotham playboys from bruce springsteens old band) and everyone was enjoying the food and having a blas...

  15. Food was not very good but at least the service sucked
    Tonight I had the misfortune of going to Philip Marie. This was my first and last visit to this horribly crowded dump on the corner of Hudson & 11th ST. We had reservation for 9:30 PM and when we called no one informed us that there was a special Mardi Gras celebration going on and that there was a pre-fixed menu. We had purchased a special discount coupon from restaurants(dot)com and when we sat...

  16. Great place for any meal
    I have been to Philip Marie for their brunch and dinner a couple times and always enjoyed. They recently changed most of their menu and to my surprise I easily replaced my favorite meals there (though they did keep most my favorite appetizers). I had an salmon & chive burger that was delicious and my boyfriend had a cream of tomato soup and open steak sandwich. We were both very pleased. Ou...

    Stopped in not knowing what to expect and was pleasantly surprised. We were seated quickly and ordered wine as it seemed to be what most people were doing. Though we don't know a whole lot about wine we knew we wanted a white zin and the waitress suggested a great one for us. The menu is very interesting and varied which is a huge plus for me because I normally get stuck ordering the same old mea...

    Yesterday me and my husband went there because of citysearch reviews and thier menu online. When we got there, we found out that they changed the entire menu and made the prices higher. Inspite of this, we ordered mussels and salmon entree. The mussels were okay, nothing special. But the salmon turned out to be horrible, we cook it at home much better even though we are not cooks. So what are the...

  19. Dreadful
    May be the worst food I've ever had in NYC (tied with nearby Tartine). I don?t know where the rave reviews come from; perhaps there are two Philip Maries in the area and I just happened to have gone to the wrong one. Food was bland, poorly prepared and over-priced. My Mediterranean sea bass had a muddy freshwater fish taste (my guess it was tilapia). The fish was uncooked in the middle and was...

    Just came home from a great meal. We were a group of eight coming together from all over the world and we were all impressed with the preparation and beautiful presentation of the food here. The service was also friendly and attentive. Can't remember when I last had such an all-around good experience.

  21. Saturday Brunch
    It may be a little crowded on Saturday's, but it's brunch in NYC, so you can't really ask for a quiet atmosphere. Other than the noise it was a great brunch. The food was amazing, and good portion sizes too. The service was great, our waitress was very nice, and checked up on us the perfect amount of times. And I never had to ask for more water or mimosa's, it was just always their. I'll make it ...

  22. Awesome Food!
    I came here for dinner with my boyfriend on a Sunday and it was their Sunday night barbeque special. My boyfriend got the catfish with mac&cheese and greens and I tried some, it was delicious. I didn't do the BBQ deal, but I did get the Mediterranean Sea Bass which was, honestly, the best meal I've had all year. Will definitely be coming back, and would like to try their brunch.

  23. Romantic Restaurant, Great for Dates
    Philip Marie is a wonderful restaurant in the West Village. The food is amazing and the chefs specialties are fantastic! The service was pretty good. Great place for a Romantic evening. I know I got my money's worth and I felt like i was treated more than fair. I will definitely be back here. They also do Brunch which I think we will check out next time.

  24. Perfect for couples
    I went here with my boyfriend to enjoy a nice meal before walking around manhattan all night. The food was great, I had the artichoke stuffed chicken, and he had the special of the day: flatiron steak. Both dishes were great, and then we shared the pumpkin fritters..even more delicious. It is now are favorite place to go out for dinner whenever we are in manhattan

    I recently went to Philip Marie and found out their special of the day was a four course wine tasting.

    I've been going to Philip Marie about six times a year for seven years, though I don't live in the neighborhood.. I love it--inside, outdoors, any time of day or year, for lunch, brundh, dinner. The menu is interesting, wine list is super, the service is always pleasant, and I love to take out of towners there for a "real New York bistro" experience.

    Well girlfriend, it was another Thursday and we chose Philip Marie as our place for drinks and starters. This was a good choice. Firstly, the barkeep was friendly and invited us in, making us feel perfectly at home. We came before it became crowded and so we had him to ourselves, however, he was still very attentive even as the restaurant filled up. Clearly a popular place. And we could see ...

    Last week my boyfriend took me to Phillip Marie for our one year anniversary. We dined in their private wine room in the lower level of the restaurant.

    I've been to Phillip Marie for dinner, for lunch, for brunch, and for a large party special occasion.

Sure it's not super-fine dining, but this is one of my favorite restaurants in NYC nonetheless. If I lived in the neigh...

  38. Stay away from the couples private room
    My husband and I opted for the couples private room dinner (wine room) for our anniversary and it was such a waste of money. The place was so cramped and hot and suffocating. People kept coming down to the bathroom, which was right next to our room, and standing in the doorway peeking in. It was not romantic, but instead irritating and annoying. The food was ok, nothing spectacular. It's a nice...

    I made reservation at Philip Marie on a Wednesday night, jazz night and it was just perfect. The four of us took an appetizer which was very good. We had some bread and olive oil while we were waiting. Then I had the shrimps and the others had the steak and everything was very good. The music was nice, not too loud, just perfect. I would recommand this restaurant to anyone.

  44. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!
    I ordered a salad that was supposed you have lots of yummy ingredients in it, but it was all lettuce and the salad dressing was an unusual shade of pink. The bus boy poured water in my soda, and I was never given a new one. For 2 soups and 2 salads (all lettuce) it was over $50. Don't waste your time in the tourist restaurant. SO NOT WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!

    My husband and I ate in the private wine cellar (for 2 people). The 5 course dinner was fantastic, the wines served with each course were perfectly paired with the food and the service was top notch. They even had a great selection of music playing through an i-pod stereo & you can even bring your own i-pod. All in all a truly wonderful and memorable dining experience I will not soon forget!

    As much as I don't want to devulge my brunch pick, I've picked up plenty of cues from Citysearch so have decided to share. The cocktail brunch is a great bargin at 16.99.

    Last night I went on a date at Philip Marie. Can I say it was fantastic. The food was possibly the best that we have ever ate. We started with an amazing warm mozzarella salad(to die for). We then shared the Lobster spring roll (the freshest that I have ever had). For our entrees we had a most tender wild boar and the most melt in your mouth lamb shank. The server that we had was so professional....

  78. Been eating there for a decade
    I'm an old man for crying out loud and have lived and eaten in over a hundred countries in this world and all over this country. Let me tell you that there isn't a place on this earth where I have experienced, in my not-so-humble opinion, consistently superb food and excellent service. John Greco is a genius (I should know). One afternoon Mel Brooks was at the next table and telling Jo...

    Just when we thought there was nothing better, Philip Marie outdid itself. We love the Tuesday Clambake and weekend brunchs. We brought friends to brag about our find, only to be wowed again.

    This place is a fantastic little gem for all to enjoy. The hosts/owners are very friendly and they instill that quality in their servers.

    We stopped here on the way to another restaurant because they had 2 for 1 drinks and thought we'd try it out. The bartender could not have been nicer (or cuter) and gave us 2 coupons for a free bottle of wine for next time.

    My boyfriend come here a lot in the summer when we can sit outside. For lunch we often split the BLT (the best BLT I have ever had) and a fruit plate. For dinner we love the muscles, the scallops and the wild boar. The service is hit-or-miss and sometimes just bizarre, but the food is always excellent. I am pleased to have this restaurant in our neighborhood.

    This was my second visit and I could not get back here fast enough!! It is a NY MUST while the neighbor has sky rocketed in prices & attitude and the over abundance of 'so so' food, Philip Marie has shined with its excellence if Food Service and Ambiance unlike anything else in the Village. The old world style and professionalism makes this a definate NY GEM!

  99. So BAD it was almost funny...
    We've lived in New York for 10 years and haven't had a brunch experience as bad as this one. The coffee came cold, our waitress was in her sweats (eating a pear no less!), the staff spent most of the time eating breakfast at a separate table and neglecting customers, and the food was just god awful. Anything interesting on the menu? Sorry, they were out of it. Never again.

Three of us had the red snapper, while the fourth had a sweet chicken dish (all on the menu I believe, not specials). All of...
