"After a long move, we showed up seeing art work from our hometown. A great hotel restaurant and bar with great food and drinks. I would highly recommend when you are in soho. Make sure to get the spinach, shrimp and goat cheese salad."

"I love the Crosby Hotel. I love everything about it- the decor, the rooms, the people, the food and bar.It's got a super cool vibe. I've had private parties here in the downstairs. Stayed in the Meadow room which was divine overlooking a garden and the outside terrace. It is a place that never fails to satisfy. This is my happy place. Also love the London Firmdale hotels - Knightsbridge, Covent Gardens ...."

"Don't order the mini tea! It does not come with tea and the tea sandwiches are underwhelming sad slices of wonderbread.Not worth the price. My cocktail was very tasty though even if overpriced ($25.)"

"Food was very competently put together and tasty with the brussel sprouts side a highlight. Good selection of wines by the glass. Service was attentive and friendly although a little spoilt by an over zealous maitre dit who slammed the bill on the table the moment the last mouthful was eaten."

"I was very disappointed in the Crosby Bar. Our server was less not attentive at all. It took forever for her to take our drink order initially and then she never asked if we wanted another round we had to flag her down and then our meal came and it was halfway through dinner before our second round came. The food was just ok especially for the price- it was 450.00 for 6 people, and only 3 were drinking so 6 glasses of wine. They also pre included the tip which makes me think that is why the service was so poor. I would not recommend it at all except for the fact that the ambiance was nice and it is easy to get a table( probably because its not that good!)"

"I always wanted to try the restaurant/bar at the Crosby hotel... Finally went for dinner on Wednesday night. It started out great, staff was very considerate and friendly, even let us stay at the bar for dinner, however this ended up being the major issue. The bartender kept getting our food orders wrong...small plates..wrong. main course..wrong. (our orders were simple, directly from the menu) Running out of time I had to request that they wrap my meal to go. The staff of course was very apologetic and I simply said "no worries" ..Got home later that night only to find out that what was in the bag was the salmon toast - not the salmon salad as I had ordered. Overall this was a huge disappointment..I'd like to have another chance."

"While the food, service and ambiance was good this place is WAY over priced for what you get. I am more than happy to spend a pretty penny on a meal if its unique, interesting or gives at least a decent portion size. On top of this, the cocktails are $16.50...absurd for a place that isn't even a "cocktail bar.""
