    Food was very good, service was great, and I was able to make a short notice reservation late on a Saturday night. And of course, we had something chocolate! The only issue is that we could feel the cold air every time the door opened - but then again this is NYC in November! Maybe they could put some type of barrier around the door to help control or redirect the draft. Overall, we had a great time!

    Dolly Varden was the PERFECT cocktail spot for a birthday get-together I had before a show:) The staff was so nice and attentive to my larger party of 14, and the vibe of the place and decor made it feel like a Christmas cabin getaway. Every drink we had was amazing and the food was wonderful as well! Will surely be back!

    If I tell how fabulous the food is, it will just make it harder for me to get in next time. So why would I tell anyone that they make the best baked clams in the city? Or the veal chop smothered in peppers is to die for the fact I have been coming here for over thirty years and the quality hasn’t changed shouldn’t influence anyone to go to Montes so do me a favor and go somewhere else
