We ate here as it was getting late and it was next to where we were staying and didn't really expect too much.

However, the staff were very helpful and the Irish stew was great.

We went on to have breakfast here and once again the food was excellent.

The setting is very quaint with stained glass on the wall contrasting the new staircase and wine rack that covered an entire wall.

Would happily eat here again and again.

Most beautiful Irish pub in the world - & great food!. Brendan's is gorgeous. It's in what used to be the lobby of a fabulous hotel of the early 20th Century. The ceilings must be at least 30 feet high and beautifully embellished. It's a pleasure to dine under this soaring ceiling. The food is superb and very reasonably priced. Let me repeat that for emphasis: Brendan's is significantly less expensive than you would expect for food of such high quality. Their steaks, salmon, fish & chips, and crab cakes are all absolutely wonderful. My one suggestion is: Order the "shoestring fries" not the regular fries. Also note that the "Atlantic Salmon" which is for some reason on the appetizers/salads menu, is actually a full serving size - and it's teriffic. You will not be disappointed by the plethora of draft beers available. My friend from Atlanta was bowled over to find Boddington's on draft (just one example). Next time you're near Macy's, cross Broadway and walk a few steps east on 35th St. to Brendan's.

Good, but not exceptional. This is definitely a good place for higher pub fair, if you don't think that's an oxymoron. Menu selections are varied enough, and some of the dishes are quite inventive. Their "juicy" burger really is juicy! A bit too fancy for a pub, and certainly more expensive than average, but a good business lunch choice nonetheless.

Amazingly space with good drinks, plus had a decent burger. Gorgeous old wood bar, muted stained glass in the restaurant. The pictures tell the story!

Nice bar, a lot of choices for beer and other drinks. Not at the end, but quite good the food was over expectation. We have a very tasteful burger. Coffee is good as well (not only american style). Services 4 not 5 but ok.

As you enter this fine establishment, you see only a beautiful bar. The patrons ate loud, and you wonder how the dining experience will be. But once you walk to the back, you find an oasis of calm amid soaring chandeliers, stained glass walls, and a massive fireplace. The wait staff is attentive and courteous, and the food (Irish-American) excellent. Recommend!

The place was nicely decorated and pretty big, good for when you want a reservation for a big group of people. It was my first time eating the shepherd's pie, the mashed potato was nice and creamy and the top of it was broiled to a delicious crusty form. I really enjoyed it. We also had the cobb salad. It was good overall and they were pretty generous with the avocado. The bacons were a bit overcooked, but didn't change the experience that much. The complementary bread was also good. A bit sweet though, which I like but maybe others don't.

Very beautiful place to eat. High decorative ceilings with large stained glass artwork. For this reason, it's always been one of my favorite NYC restaurants to eat at. Food was also very good. Had the fish & chips. Reasonably priced. The wait staff is also good.

Open for breakfast to people staying at The Gregory Hotel adjacent. Breakfasts were fresh and flavorful. The service was great. Although we didn't eat lunch or dinner here, breakfast was wonderful.
