Pig 'n ' Whistle - New York

Great food, nice venue next to times square! The crab cake for starters was lovely followed by the signature burger. Very delicious

Great food and excellent service. Loved the pub atmosphere and convenient location to theaters

There are a few Pig n Whistles in the area. I sat at the bar at the one near Penn Station and enjoyed the bar food and drinks immensely. This time, we tried this one due to its proximity to a concert we were going to. Large, multilevel bar/restaurant that are common in the forties midtown. A selling point are the highboy tables near an open balcony overlooking the street on the second floor, but we opted for a regular table behind those. Food was OK, but nothing special. While generally satisfied, a lot of little things detracted from my experience. My friend ordered a Guinness, but got an Octoberfest. We ordered 12 oysters but got only ten and the shucking left quite a bit of shell in them. I was spitting shell from every one I ate. The missing oysters were deducted from the bill (can't complain too much at only $1.00 each) and a wrong beer wasn't worth complaining about to us. The almond encrusted cod on special was fine, but small and a bit dry. I wished I'd ordered the fish and chips with lots of tartar sauce and malt vinegar. Notable pluses: The beer was fresh, tables/chairs were comfortable and bathrooms were singles and clean. I'd come back on those points alone but eat something less exotic.

An absolutely awesome time. WOWZA actually!!! I put in a request to have a very dear, close friend and I greeted a certain way both arriving and leaving. Those few, simple spoken words by the staff took her by complete surprise... and meant so much that she was beaming. To top it off during dinner, a song very close to her heart just happened to play on the radio. Let's just say the whole experience was truly beautiful and magical, like her.

Atmosphere was cozy, warm and inviting.. food was excellent but service could have been more attentive
