Ate here late on a Sunday with friends. Good drinks and quality food. Pizza and lamb meatball appetizer were both very good. Reasonably priced. Not too loud or crowded late in the evening. Cozy atmosphere.
We stopped in for dinner after a long day at a trade show. The restaurant was quite full but we still managed to get a small table for 2. Things were a little tight, but we appreciated not having to wait. The first thing we noticed was that it was quite loud. Nothing wrong with that though, as it was quite busy and lots of people in the bar area. Just not ideal for us after a long day. Don't expect it to be relaxing. The staff were all very friendly. Our order was taken quickly. Food came in a reasonable amount of time and was hot. Our meals were excellent. Perhaps some of the best food we've had in New York! Very enjoyable! We didn't get much attention after the food was delivered. The waiter was very busy but we could have used a coffee refill, but he never came by to check. By the time he was back, we were ready to leave. The food here is excellent. If you are prepared for the busy, loud environment, you should will certainly enjoy this spot. I would definitely go back.
One of my favorite restaurants. I remember going to the restaurant years ago when it was still new. Now the space gets more cozy and beautiful. There is an indoor garden with a tree in it. I esp. like how quiet the indoor garden gets in the evening (when people move to the bar section, which is in another connected space). It’s so rare to find a place in a busy area with a quiet seating option.
The food is with good display and taste.
A weekly indulgence as locals in the area. I absolutely love the smokin' Wicked Witch cocktail. PS You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Try the duck turnovers and your mind will be blown. 🦆🤯 Thanks Bea for always delivering a classic, NYC, prohibition style experience.
OMG...where do I start? This is a fabulous place with delicious food and terrific service. I cannot describe this without many adjectives. My bartender was the best! She did an amazing job. The chicken was absolutely superb! I loved my experience here!
Real fun West Side NYC eatery to enjoy a meal. Throughout the meal, classic old movies from the golden age of Hollywood were shown on various walls. There were also photos of legendary actors and actresses hanging in the booths. Oh, and the food is superb. I started with the tomato soup which was creamy, smooth, and simply divine. It was served with 3 large pieces of fried bread which enhanced the experience. I also had the 7 oz filet mignon steak which was just the right size. It was served with fries and this incredible vegetable medley which was unique and flavorful. Our server was perfect. He was friendly, accommodating, yet not overbearing. He also assisted the other staff in clearing and setting tables. Overall, a very impressive restaurant, with very reasonable prices.
2nd visit the BEA and just as good as the first time. Will be on my list every time I get to New York. Perfect spot for a pre-show meal. Great food, service and atmosphere. Love the decor throughout the restaurant and the atrium area is awesome. Thanks for a great dinner.
They have decent food and pretty reasonably priced local beer selection especially for a bar/restaurant in Manhattan. Happy that my friend took me to this place.
What a wonderful experience after our off-Broadway show! At the recommendation of the playwright, we took the 3 minute walk down 43rd to Bea and enjoyed the array of cuisine. The drinks were delicious, the food good and hot, and the service prompt. I highly recommend and would definitely dine here again!
My mom and I had a good experience at Bea when we were in NYC for the holidays. Things were so swamped so we got there for an early dinner around 5 and got a table with relative ease. The waitress was very nice and helpful. She helped me pick a wine for with my Gnocchi and it was perfect. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars for food is because my dish was little bland. The tomato sauce did seem pretty fresh which I liked but left just a little to be desired in terms of seasoning. My mom got the burger and seemed to enjoy that. It looked juicy and flavorful, but I tried the fries and were mediocre. It's a little dark, which gave what I thought was a nice atmosphere, but if you don't like that just know that going in. Overall I would recommend for a quick bite and a good drink.
Perfect spot for Sunday brunch. We sat in the sun room and we loved it! We got the parfait, Brussels sprouts, and the Benedict. So happy with the whole experience. Can’t wait to come back!
Came here for my birthday. The ambiance is amazing! The service was great, the food was outstanding and the drinks were pretty and strong! I highly recommend Bea and will definitely be returning! Thank you for the giant birthday sundae!
