Great Union Sqaure Restaurant! – I try to stay as far away from Union Square as possible, BUT I will make that acception to dine at First Crush. The service is AMAZING! My boyfriend and I dined there for our anniversary, and the waitress brought us champagne! It was a wonderful start to a fabuolus meal. The cherry glazed duck was delicious, and make sure to try the ceasar salad! The desserts were okay, but I would go with the cheeseplate instead.

excellent service, good food – I just dined here this Thursday for a company dinner, and I have to say I was quite impressed. Being a local, I rarely venture to Union Square to dine. However, the service staff was quite impressive for how busy they were; we sat downstairs in a full room, yet we were taken care of as though we were the only ones there. I will highly recommend this restaurant to all of my clients for the wine and service (some of the dishes need a little work, though).

Great small plates and service – First time and what a treat. Always looking for something in the Union Square area and now I have found it. We only had small plates for our party of three but they were all GREAT! The artichoke, short ribs, prawns, spring rolls, oysters and salads were very tasty and had a great presentation. The only drawback is that the tables are a little close together, but you're in the city and have to expect that.

Great downstairs dining room – The upstairs and downstairs have distinctly different ambience. The upstairs is far more casual, and almost a bit rundown. The dowstairs is very elegant, with wonderful lighting and decor. The wine list is great, without being snooty, and dinner was very good and reasonably priced. This is a nice date place- we went with another couple and had a wonderful evening. The service was attentive but not overbearing.

Romantic spot for date – Love the ambiance. Great to take a date. The time I came here was when there was the Dine about Town menu. I got the crab cake which came this this mustard sauce and leeks which was pretty good, for entree, I had the pan roasted chicken, cooked perfectly and was not dry at all and came with a crispy potato cake, also very good! Lastly for dessert, I had the smore's pie, good but not great. The service was friendly

Slow service but the food was delicious – Good food. I highly recommend the macadamia nut crusted halibut. The wine flights are a good value and a great way to try a few different wines.

It has it all: good food, ambiance, great wines – Quite an excellent place. The food was really quite good, especially the cheese plate, the duck and the lamb chops. The wine list is extensive and the tasting flights were really fun to try out a bunch of different wines. It has a nice ambiance, but don't expect it to be too quiet. Lots of people having lots of fun was the atmosphere. I had great service--the waitress knew some good wines to suggest and the staff kept our water glasses fun, bread was plentiful, and the waitre... read more

What a night!!!! – I chose this restaurant as a romantic night for me and my first crush. In town for only the weekend, I had to make the right moves.....and I did. The restaurant it self might have been a bit on the noisy side, but the dim lighting allowed us a feeling of privacy. Amazing wine, great food and a very helpful staff made it a night to remember.
