About this business
Casa Lever, located in the iconic Lever building in Midtown, is probably known as much for its address as its menu; it's a great spot for celeb watching. Sophisticated and tasteful, it sports an ultramodern feel which can be attributed to its almost minimalistic décor that in fact features several large, colorful Andy Warhol works of several modern-day celebrities. The restaurant is also equipped with a large bar area and offers a menu of innovative Italian fare as well as a raw bar. Notable items on Casa Lever's menu... read more

Over-priced, under-tastey – This allegedly hip new restaurant gets an A- in service, and a C- in food quality. Sadly, the bread and garlic spread was the best part of the meal. The filet mignon was tepid, tasteless, and came with over-boiled vegetables swimming in a pool of meat juice and vegetable sweat. The sirloin was chewy at best, and the chef apparently added gristle at no extra charge! For this type of over-infused American fare, try a less expensive, less hyped locale further downtown.
Decor doesn't lend itself to comfort – Considering how cold it's been in NYC this Winter, Lever House is not set up to deal with the cold. Freezing cold air was pumped into the dining room through the "tunnel" entrance causing most of the diners to get their coats from coat check. For god's sake - block that thing up so i can enjoy my average tasing dinner -- BTW: Killer Bar -- i'd go there for drinks (coat on) anytime.
Awful First Impression – Yes, the building is historically important and the space is interesting. The food is okay but, not tops in the city. Noww that we've been fair on those points. Could the hostesses be more rude? There something to be learned from courteous service. The out of work actresses should adjust their attitude soon or they'll be booking tables on the phone for quite some time. The phone experience left me with a bitter taste. Enough of one that I put the time into writing this.
great room, average food – Having dined in the Lever House, I know where all the money went--to the decor. Our service was exceptional, our food slightly above average.
Lever House Rules – When a place is this beautiful, this hot, and this hip - I am usually skeptical. I am now a true believer. I was impressed: really nice, knowledgable staff, food that is well presented, thoughfully composed and delicious, and an interesting wine list. Lever House has it all. And no, evidentally you don't have to be a celebrity to be well treated.
Future Recommendation – Was taken here recently for my birthday and although the place isnt quite romantic, its very cool and chic. Makes you feel like youre bound to see or be seen. The decor is minimal and modern - looks straight out of the future. The food was overall good but the apps blew away the entrees (carpaccio and duck recommended for apps - lamb for entree) - dessert was no joke either! Plate presentation was clean and well designed. Staff was friendly and knowledgable. We were even sat 15 mins earlier than our r... read more
FOUR (4) STARS! – Terrific Food, Service & Marc Newson Decor. Hands down, the Best New Restaurant in 2003.
finally – a great, hip, good food place in midtown that will impress out of towners. very nice bartenders and hostess and good service, not too loud, alot of suits but very stylish - grown-up jetsons decor, a futuristic airport lounge feeling - loved it.
Outstanding – As jaded NY diners, we are happy to express our delight at Lever House. Everything was superb, even after my menu caught on fire. A genuine midtown destination.
