I went to WD to celebrate my cousin’s birthday. It’s been a while since I ate at any foodie place, just because it’s expensive and I was sort of tired from the scene thing. I had expectations but I’m not...

I know that WD-50 has had many mixed reviews, but now that it has had some time to settle in I was wondering how those who have gone there think it is doing. Anything recommended??? Thanks.

it to do that, yes. I am not not a slave to the media and believe me have not desire to like what is trendy or what I think Im supposed to. I do think WD 50 is a very good, significant new restaurant.

I’m with you Pierre, WD-50 is style over substance and I would never go back. Too much money, too little food. Too much pretense, too little taste. It seems to have become one of the most contentious places discussed on...

We went to WD-50 last week and had a fantastic meal. The food was delicious. We ordered the tasting menu and were impressed by the twelve different courses. In addition to being visually striking, each dish boasted its own...

Had dinner last night at WD-50... We started with artichoke soup with mussels, chorizo and tangerine oil. It comes with a quail egg perched atop of a strip of crispy chorizo. You stir in the quail egg and crumble in the chorizo to...

WD-50 pastry chef Alex Stupak’s take on dessert is a deconstructed, adventurous spin on shortbread.

I think that Corton is the clear choice. wd~50 leans far more heavily into “molecular gastronomy” territory (I think that term is a misnomer, but whatever) than Corton does, but both of them could be considered more...

oops. without curse words this time. i wrote the below note to eater a few months ago but they didn’t publi. i want to post it here in hopes that at least one person will be saved from this tragedy of a restaurant. wd-50 fans...

breakfast) 5) WD~50 (please see some of my other posts for reviews of the other restaurants with pictures) We were only there for 5 days, so that was about all we could fit in given the tight timeline. If I had to rank the meals, I...

I’m coming to NY in a few weeks, and have been reviewing all of the great feedback on this site. Regarding WD-50, I like innovative food as much as the next guy, but a lot of the reviews I’ve seen of this restaurant,...

If you’re insatiable I’d be prepared to get a slice or something after leaving WD50. When 5 of us went a year ago we had the tasting menu and all left hungry, and that included the very slim and petite among us. An...

For WD 50: You have to have to have to get the Hanger Steak Tartare. And then they have this funky avocado/chocolate ice cream dessert. Definitely recommend getting the tasting menu, fun tails, and then the tasting menu for...

If you had one night in NYC, which would you choose... Hearth, Craft, WD-50 or Prune? Other suggestions are welcome. Not looking for stiff or fancy. Just great food in a fun atmosphere.

Four of us went there the other night, were truly disappointed by what we were served, both in substance and size. Presentation is lovely but that’s about it. We spent $175 per couple and went elsewhere for added desserts...
