    First time visiting a Bubba Gump and it was brilliant. Went to the New York Times Square one on Christmas day and although it was very busy the staff were great, really happy and friendly, they apologised for the food taking a while but given how busy it was we expected to wait. When the food did arrive it was nice and hot and tasted amazing. Just a shame that there aren't any in the UK where we live so it will be a while before we can go again.

    Nice bar/restaurant for brunch. We were looking for a quiet place for brunch Christmas week and stumbled upon this establishment. The greeter/waiter, Cameron, was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and the drinks were great too! Definitely recommend it and will be back soon!

    We had a wonderful experience at Carla. Staff was amazing and food was absolutely delicious. We got the queso and chips for an appetizer and the fish and chips for our entree. Both were very pleasant dishes! We will be back when we are back in NYC.
