Cervo's - New York

Sometimes you just need to enjoy a meal without taking any photos. When you eat here, it's important to be present and savor the experience, as the chefs are incredibly dedicated to the dishes they create. The service is excellent; every member of the staff knows their stuff and can clearly explain everything on the menu, including wine pairings. For my personal taste, this might just be the best restaurant in the state. The flavors I experienced were clean, with a personal touch and fresh ingredients. I especially appreciated that the emphasis here isn't on excessive use of butter. Thank you all! It was a delightful experience both inside and out.

This place is fantastic! I was so immersed in the experience that I didn’t even take the time to snap any photos. They have an incredible wine selection—if you’re in the mood for something refreshing, definitely ask for PamPaneo wine; it’s perfect for those summer days. And the fries? Absolutely delightful! I could swear they must have truffles in them.

I had a great experience at this restaurant. The clams were delicious! However, the chair was a bit wet, though I’m not sure if that was my doing. I look forward to bringing my wife here, as she also appreciates a laid-back atmosphere.

The shrimp heads are a must-try. If you want a cocktail, get the Adonis. And if you order the manila clams, trust me you’ll want some sourdough to go with it.The shrimp heads. Despite never having stepped in Spain or Portugal, I grow nostalgic of this flavor. My coastal hometown is known for skin-on fried shrimp. Crustacean shells hold a different concentrated flavor from the flesh, like bisque extract, that is further intensified by the tomalley. Wonderful. You can’t get this elsewhere.The manila clams feel like a different take of Moules Mariniere. You need a side of bread to soak up the sauce and clam juice. Great, but I’ll stick with the mussels with chablis at my regular spot.The breaded skate feels light despite being deep-fried, not greasy at all. The acidic spring onion sauce and cilantro add a freshness. While the skate fillet is flavorful, it’s too soft without the cartilaginous texture I love.As for the drinks, flavor-wise I find them on the overdiluted side but the bartender coaxed out the aroma of the drinks. The Adonis is the must try. Cervo’s menu highlights the sherry and vermouth. Adonis contains both.I sound nitpicky but really the food is great. Cervo’s is a mainstay favorite at Dimes Square for good reason. I want to go back primarily for the shrimp heads and Adonis.

Absolutely delicious. Loved everything we ate- asparagus, clams, fried skate wing, that layer cake. 50/50 martini was exceptional. Vermouth list is ?
