βI chose this place to celebrate my Bday with a friend & the young girl host at the door was so rude & not friendly at all- Why have a miserable young girl as a host? The host is the 1st face of your establishment that is supposed to make your guests feel comfortable - The restaurant was almost empty with PLENTY of Empty tables & she tried to cram us right next to another couple, where the tables were extremely too close, we looked around like can we sit at any of the other 30 tables available?? and asked to sit 1 table away from the couple so she had an attitude about that We ordered Lomo Saltado and "It just Looks pretty good in the pictures" BUT it was Not Good at all honestly, This was not an authentic Peruvian dish that We've had many times in the past! 1. The portion was super small 2. The beef was huge chunks of unflavored chewy meat 3. Served with a tiny bit of unflavored bland Soggy rice 4. Drenched in Tomato Sauce 5.No condiments on the table 6.They never came around to serve more water so we only had 1 small glass of water. Not a good choice of dish for us! Maybe stick to Burgers & wings here/ Bar food... I came here 2x in the past & all was fine, food was delish- Not anymore. The location is the best thing about it with the city view & maybe their other dishes are much better for sure.β

βI reserved it for the Valentine's Day and I love the vibe of this place. Amazing food with amazing view. Music is bit loud but I enjoyed my time at this restaurant. We tried their nachos, fries and for main course we tried their famous margaritas pizza and all three iteam were deliciousβ

βI've been a fan of The Highwood ever since they opened, and their newly refreshed outdoor dining space is even more stunning than before. With sweeping NYC skyline views, lush greenery, and a vibrant seasonal menu, it's the perfect spot for golden hour hangs, rooftop-style vibes (without the NYC chaos), and capturing effortlessly beautiful moments. Shoutout to ANGEL for the amazing service!! The happy hour menu is worth checking out, it's a great place to watch a game or match, and the food and cocktails never disappoint. The service is consistently warm and attentive, making each visit memorable. Some of my favorites from the menu: * Truffle Burrata & Grilled Peaches - Maplebrook farm burrata, grilled peaches, elderflower vinaigrette, sesame seeds, red radishes, basil oil, grilled sourdough bread * Highwood Ceviche - Catch of the day, red onions, habanero, sweet potato, corn, cancha, rocoto-tiger milk * Ocean Sushi Roll - Spicy tuna, avocado, cucumber, scallions, torched salmon, eel sauce, spicy mayo * Lomo Saltado - Wok stir-fried beef tenderloin, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, red vinegar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, native potatoes, chaufa rice * Delmonico - USDA prime Delmonico steak, garlic-herb compound butter, pommes aligot, crispy young beans, barolo sauce * Rigatoni Alla Vodka with Burrata - Spicy creamy pink sauce, rigatoni pasta, 24-month aged Parmigiano Reggiano, garlic bread crumbs, basil * Brussel 'n Cream - Blanched brussels, applewood smoked bacon, garlic, onions, nutmeg, chives The Highwood continues to deliver the perfect balance of elevated dining and laid-back comfort. Highly recommend for both a casual night out and a special occasion.β
