About this business
Open for the warm months, Rare View delivers on it's name. Located on the 16th floor of the beautiful Shelburne Hotel, Rare View offers excellent NYC skyline views from atop its Murray Hill location. One feels up close to some of the behemoths that bewilder from street level. It's all quite intimate. The only problem here is the prices soar in the clouds too. Beers can run over just a few dollars. Also lines can form to enter and the elevator is slow. Definitely worth a visit, but stick around for only a drink or so and then... read more

Disappointed – Service was awful! If it had been crowded it would have been understandable but we had to flag down a waiter just to get a glass of water. The waitress was rude when asked where our food was and then to top it off we were overcharged! If the menu lists a price - that is the price - not some other number. The most confusing thing - the manager refused to come speak with us when we asked the waitress to have him come over. I spoke with him on the way out and he seemed to be suprised that I thought that was stran... read more
This restaurant couldn't be any worse – Went to lunch with a colleague and was seated promptly. After that it took over an hour for our lunch and the restaurant was not crowded. Mine burger was underdone and my colleauge's overdone. When the bill came it said that one of the things we ordered was $12, the menu listed it as $9. The restaurant apparently changed the price but did update the the menu. We tried to get the manager who flatly refused to come to our table and discuss the problem with us. We ended up having to follo... read more
Overrated and Full of Posers – I want to bet that all the good reviews were written by the owner. Seriously, I've been here 2 times - for lunch and for happy hour on the roof. Lunch: we were all excited for "the best burger ever" and we all walked away saying that they were "just ok" and extremely slow (it was almost a 2 hour lunch). Needless to say we never went back. Roof: very nice space (although I know 5 other rooftop bars just as good), but the crowd was a bunch of posers and the owner was a tool. Give a geeky guy a po... read more
Rare Rules – Man, I was really impressed with Rare and Rare View. FYI, Rare has the best burger I have had in a long time (blows corner bistro away) and the scene in this place was awesome. Hot chicks EVERYWHERE and great service too! I was also impressed with how friendly the owners of this place were which is a "rare" find in this city! This place is no doubt going to be my new spot to chill, Rare and the roof (Rare View) are the bomb!
Extraordinary – I cannot say enough about how fantastic Rare is! The food is phenomenal, the service is outstanding & the atmosphere cannot be beat. It is very difficult to find a restaurant with a cool vibe, absolutely no pretension and superb food. The crowd was a great mix of people too. I was very impressed with Rare and loved their roof deck, Rare View (amazing views of the city!) I absolutely recommend this place.
Brilliant – I'm shocked at the negative reviews of this place. They are completely erroneous. I have to say this is absolutely the best burger I have had in NY or anywhere else. The food was amazing, the service terrific and the fries were the BEST! My friends and I have been to Rare on many occastions and each time is better than the last!
Excellent!! – Superb is the only word to describe my experience at Rare. Delicious food, exemplary service and incredible ambiance. Before dinner we had drinks at Rare View on the roof which has an amazing view of the city and is the quintessential place to share cocktails with friends! Rare and Rare View are absolutely great additions to the Murray Hill neighborhood!
Fabulous! – Hands down, Rare has the best burgers in town. Not only was the food incredible but the service was great too. The french fry sampler was amazing! Clearly the owners of this establishment know what they are doing bc the place was packed and buzzing. It's refreshing to find a restaurant with a cool vibe, delicious food and friendly service. I will definitely be back.
Out of this world – Truly the best burgers in the city! I have never seen such an amazing variety of burgers. I was with a group of friends and we each tried a different burger. The kobe burger and the crab burger were so unique and delicious. I will definitely be back to try all the rest! It is refreshing to find a place where the service is both curteous and friendly. Without doubt an enjoyable experience that I look forward to repeating!
