About this business
A recent addition to Chelsea's restaurant scene, this steakhouse was more than welcome in the neighborhood. With a raw bar, wine bar, Italian cuisine and alfresco seating, the crowds never go disappointed. If you can't afford to spend time at the restaurant, you can always pick up your order from the takeaway counter facing the street. They also offer rooms for private parties and the seating capacity is for 150 people.

good food! – enjoyed Il Bastardo immensely,while waitstaff seemed confused as to what they should be doing , our waiter appeared experienced. food was great: arugala salad was absolutely delicious; the veal was tender and breaded appropriately; the desert of cheesecake was perfectly creamy and sweet. waiter made good selection with brunello, though the cocktails could use help(mojito simply wasn't the best)... but when the $180 bill came for two people, i was more than happy to pay. great time, trendy but relaxed scene, espe... read more
Great Brunch!! – Ahhhh I'm loving this website, finally I opened an account after a long time reading other people's comments. I'm eager to rate as many restaurants I know, especially this one. I'm new to Chelsea and I've been to El Bastardo only for brunch (btw don't u love the name!? lol) The brunch was adorable, I sat outside with my boys and the service was very good. The best thing though was the unlimited drinks, I got so waistedddd maybe that's why I have such good memories of this place lol
Great place to go for a group dinner – I was desperate to find a place that would accommodate my birthday party. We called a bunch of places (think Stanton Social) only to be frustrated and pretty much laughed at. One of my friends suggested Il Bastardo, so I called up and was able to get a reservation for 12 people. Without knowing what to quite expect, we ended up having a terrific evening without feeling rushed - - we did not end up leaving until after midnight. The back room was great and very intimate. Definitely plan o... read more
My weekly outdoor hangout – My friends and I have been going to Il Bastardo at least once a week for the past 2 years. We particularly love to go during the summer when their outdoor area is open. We have always had great food and love, love, love their sangria. Since I never cook in my tiny kitchen, it is nice to have a place to go to where everyone knows me and I don't even need to look at the menu anymore.
Don't go!!! – My boyfriend and I dined there last night with much regret. The service was HORRIBLE!!! We waited for sometime for our waiter to even greet us at our table, not to mention never once checked on how we were doing throughout our meal. Our condiment plate seemed as if it had come off of someone else's table, and the shrimp on my dish was translucent as if it had not been cooked. I had asparagus in my dish, that half of it was over cooked, and half of it undercooked. The waiter also watched me pour my own wine, the... read more
Drink the Sangria if you'd like to replicate a brain aneurysm – I went there to meet a client for drinks. Had no food, and we each had 2 glasses of sangria. I awoke the next day with the worst headache of my life, which lasted until 7 pm the next evening. No amount of aspirin, Advil, Tylenol, water, caffeine or greasy food could make it go away. My client also left the restaurant sober, and had the same experience. DO NOT drink the sangria. It is a mixture of grain alcohol and pure sugar, and I could not open my eyes until 2... read more
What an interresting night – This place made me regret not staying in.... the Mexican staff knew little about either Italian food, wine, and even more so service..... very carefree attitude on the part of the staff... We got seated... waited quite a bit before someone took our order....I felt lucky to have gotten the correct food, and not to have gotte yelled at. The management needs a LOT of work....learning how to hire staff that knows what they're doing .... This restaurant won't last long...
They're under the mistaken impression that they are not a cheap "steakhouse lite" McItalian joint in a lame neighborhood – I was seeing a movie in Chelsea last saturday so I called ahead to see if I could get a table for two in an hour, at 8:15. I was told they weren't taking reservations, but to just come by because they'll have room. I get there at around 8:05, find the front room with at least four empty tables scattered about the floor, and I'm told it'll be a 45 minute wait. The empty tables are "all reserved" apparentl... read more
Same exact food but much better service next door at Sette – A little tip: It's a little known fact that Il Bastardo and Sette (which are directly next door to each other) LITERALLY share the same kitchen... So, go directly next door to Sette, instead of Il Bastardo if you care a ton about service. The menus are identical. The difference between the two? Service and atmosphere. Il Bastardo is larger and more modern looking, and the crowd tends to be a bit younger (people in their 20s). Sette on the other hand is a candle-lit... read more
