- private event
Simply a stunning experience each time. From dining at the bar, to a private event, this is probably the best kept secret restaurant in NYC. Run, don’t walk, to the best wine list you’ve yet to fawn over. Food has yet to miss, and blow a kiss to the jumbo chartreuse bottles.

I was disappointed with the service we received during our recent visit to this restaurant. We were a group of six and requested to add a seventh person to our table, not only did they make it seem like a hassle but we were informed that sharing plates was not allowed, which seemed unnecessary and restrictive. Our waitress also left much to be desired in terms of hospitality - she appeared distant and even rolled her eyes when we politely asked if she could take a picture of our group at the table. While the food itself was enjoyable, the overall experience left much to be desired. We felt unwelcome and unappreciated as customers. As such, I will not be returning in the future. I understand that running a restaurant can be challenging, but it is important for staff members to make guests feel valued and respected throughout their dining experience. There are plenty of other establishments where I will find equal if not better quality of food where I can spend my money and receive better treatment in return.

There's something serendipitous about walking past a restaurant in New York that you haven't heard of and can barely notice from the street and it turning out to be a gem. I would eat in this place even if the food were terrible because the acoustics were so good! Okay, I'm lying, but this is a lovely restaurant and you can hear each other! The owner / manager, Jared was gracious and funny. The entire atmosphere of the restaurant is very chill. Even when it got busy there was still this calm and it was never crazy noisy. I was very intrigued by the sign over the bar that kept changing, like the ones you find in a train station. Very nice touch! The cocktails were elegant-looking and delicious. The names were fun and the flavors made you want to drink a pitcher of them. I resisted also getting the Tiki Or Not Tiki like rest of my group. Garnish was simple but striking -- a leaf of shiso in a glass with a large ice cube. They both loved it! I had the La Capilla which was a tricked out Paloma. The garnish was a sumac and salt edge around half the glass that I licked off happily. Chambers is like a neighborhood restaurant that you want to go to over and over. The food looked beautiful when it hit the table and each dish was well executed without being over handled. The bread -- sesame pizza bianca -- will make you cry. At first, I thought, "No butter?" Then, I tasted it and thought, "Damn, that's good!” We had four appetizers, four mains, all the veggies, and two desserts. Loved the beets with one of my favorite blue cheeses ever the Bailey Hazen blue from Jasper Hill farms and smoked panko. The escarole salad was gorgeous looking. Tender yellow escarole that looked a bit like tulip petals and popped with the carrot slices and the pickled orange peppers. Manila clams in a celery root curry with stinging nettles, who'd of thunk it? Very tasty! The mains were all solid. Great ingredients done well so they make you happy to eat them. The chicken was perfectly cooked, beautifully browned, topped with spinach on a puddle of sauce. The sauce on the sea bass was just really well done. Meyer lemon bernaise equals dreamy. The beef was tender and delish with spring alliums and mustardy potatoes One of our party was allergic to mushrooms so we had to eat more of the pork tenderloin. I love that it wasn't overcooked. Pink pork can be a little off-putting for some but it was really good. Be sure to have the veggie sides. I'm going to recreate the sweet potatoes at home tonight. Asparagus were all dente with an excellent anchovy mayo. The carrots were sticky with a tumble of toasted pistachios and fresh herbs. We had to Google the ice cream flavor, bordiga centum herbis = 100 herbs, served with the flourless chocolate cake because our Latin was rusty. It balanced really nicely with the bittersweet cake. We demolished the marscapone and phyllo Napoleon --crispy, creamy & yum!
- group wine dinner
The som — world class. She was awesome. Stellar bottle and was super receptive to us throwing a ton of different preferences at her for a group with varied tastes. She somehow managed to make magic out of our chaos. Mad respect. She is the only reason I haven’t completely blown up this review - everything else about this place was mean. The service was quite rude and condescending even though our bill was close to a grand (yes we still tipped 18%+ because we’re decent people). I’m not a review guy. I like food. And I like all food and don’t ever want to diss the chefs that make something subjectively tasty whether or not it was our fave thing in the world……my issue with this place was our service. Extremely rude. Condescending to almost everyone at the table. We felt it from The moment we came in. The food and wine were objectively tasty — I would have loved to return for a repeat. The service has us doing a double take wondering “what did we do wrong to deserve this treatment?” Anyways, hopefully you have a better experience. I will personally stick to our faves in Brooklyn like Vinegar Hill House, Four Horsemen, and Bouquet for top tier food and wine and even better service where we feel like family.
- group dinner, party of 5
Best restaurant I've been to in a long time. We had group of 5 and basically ordered every item on the menu. Every single dish, from the starters, mains and desserts, was excellent - super fresh, creative and flavorful. Service and vibe were also great, surprisingly quiet, with a nice list to top it off. Will be back!
