Bunny — Restaurant in New York

One of the most uncomfortable restaurants I have ever had the displeasure to go to. I went out for dinner with my husband and two daughters 7 and 4.5. We chose Bunny because it looked cute and the reviews were good. But as soon as we sat down my daughters went to the bathroom and when they came out the bartender went in there and told us to clean the bathroom after my daughters. My husband went there with my oldest daughter and asked her to pick up the three pieces of toilet paper that were on the floor. I then thought how could the bartender know that the tp was from my daughters in the first place? Does he check the bathroom after every guest goes in there? Does he have a camera in there? He just assumed that they dropped the tp on the floor because they were kids. Therefore this makes me think that Bunny is not for you to bring your kids to even if the place is by no means packed. I felt watched the whole time and never felt so offended as a guest before. I did consider canceling my order but I didn’t want to waste food and since I’ve always wanted to try their little menu I decided to stay but he just left a horrible taste in our mouths. Bad enough for me to really care less for the food which wasn’t anything...

Bunny is a really nice little authentic Turkish bistro. The menu isn't overly complicated, with some very tasty options from dips, to salads, to a handful of larger entree plates.

The dining area isn't very large, so you will be quite cozy with some of the other patrons. This means it might get a little loud, but depending on the mood you're in, that's not necessarily a bad thing. The decor is very charming with unique ceramic lantern style hanging lights sporting Turkish folk designs. There's also a giant photo decal of a bunny on the back of the bathroom door.

The food is terrific, especially many of the small and shared plates. The cheesy cigars were incredible with savory, tart, dill infused goat cheese in phyllo wraps. And their plain pide bread is super soft and puffy and addictive, perfect for the labne dip. They also serve traditional Turkish Raki, which if you're a fan of herbaceous, anise flavored drinks like absinthe, is a must have.

I didn't even end up trying any of the entrees during my visit, since my partner and I ordered several small plates, so I'm really looking forward to returning and trying...

I came here for dinner last night with a friend. We were seated inside and ordered a bunch of plates to share: the currywurst, tomato salad, shishito peppers, and lamb kofte kebabs. Everything was very delicious! My favorite was the tomato salad and the crispy potatoes that are served with the currywurst. The tomatoes were so flavorful and savory; there’s nothing like perfectly ripe tomatoes in a well-seasoned vinaigrette! We also had a glass of the sparkling Riesling (which was great) and my friend had a Pilsner. We got the baklava for dessert, which was tasty. The restaurant is pretty small inside but they make really great use of the space. The atmosphere is very cozy and I think makes for a wonderful space to bring someone for an intimate conversation; think date night or a place to catch up with an old friend. You won’t need to shout over loud music or a million other people. Lol.

The only downside to this place is that you have to email them for reservations, which is a little annoying. But I suppose it’s how they keep the perfect balance of the...
