“The steaks are serious, including a gorgeous picanha with a half-inch cap of snowy white fat that runs down into the flesh as it’s broiled. Too bad the sides, apart from a toss of spring-bright peas and yielding carrots, were mostly forgettable — those button mushrooms would never pass muster at Mr. Meyer’s Gramercy Tavern — and on one of my visits, the black bass en papillote, the lightest of the entrees, was glumly fishy.”

“The food is straightforward. Not innovative, but solid for traditional steaks etc.”

“Had the worst pasta dish of my life there. 40$ lobster pasta that was somehow over sauced but still dry and flavorless. Cake was also dry”

replying to u/Key-Progress4115: Sorry to hear about your troubles. I love the redux of the View. It's kind of tacky, but the food is good and I love it for the weirdness factor. The restaurant revolves so in 45 minutes you get a panorama of Midtown. I think its better at night (it feels like being in a spaceship.) Its geared towards tourists so I wouldn't worry about it being overly formal.
“Overall food was mixed, but I wouldn’t recommend it over other places. Not at all.”

replying to u/Educational-Bit-145: I don’t know how contemporary it is, but The View is a revolving restaurant on top of the Marriot Marquis hotel near Times Square. Great way to take in 360 views while you eat
“Food is mid, over priced, the view is not all that”

“The View on top of the Marriott Marquis (I know, stay with me) was recently reopened by Danny Meyer and is a great evening out! Food and service are fantastic as the room slowly rotates 360 degrees showing off the midtown skyline.”
