Lox Cafe 36 Battery Place, Manhattan, New York 10280

"Beautiful place with a very cozy atmosphere and a nice view. Food and service is great too."

"We were looking for a kosher restaurant that would be quiet enough for us to talk comfortably with each other. We sat down around 11:00 a.m. without a wait on the outdoor patio. There was a nice view of the Hudson river and the Statue of Liberty. Just below the patio was a lovely rock garden where we could walk in the shade. I had a nice challah French toast and my family had various lox bagels. We were happy sharing our breakfasts and had animated conversation without difficulty. Afterwards I briefly viewed some of the museum photos and wall quotes."

"Really great house made lox in a few different varieties. The menu has a bit of an Eastern European feel to it, but with a little New York flair. Chef David Teyf is very present in the kitchen and out around the tables. Not cheap, but high quality food with fresh ingredients, well made. We went for an early brunch before visiting the Museum of Jewish Heritage (although you can eat without buying a ticket to the museum)"

"First of all, the museum is magnificent. It is a must visit. An experience that will stay with you. As for Lox, as good and authentic as it could be. I had the Minsk Matzo Babka and the Original Bagel and Lox. Both tasted so good; and absolutely real. The staff was nice, the chef was there. The view is great and the seats are well-spaced. Highly recommended!"

"Delicious Jewish food tucked away on the 2nd floor of the Museum of Jewish Heritage Hot take - best lox in the city! Bagel and lox is loaded with delicious fish and cream cheese. My only complaint would have been for more onions. But I love onions. Deviled eggs are good too The rainbow cake was decent. There’s better ones around. Service was good but a little confusing. It’s supposed to be table service but there is no host to seat you. We ended up ordering at the counter but the food was served to our table ... You don’t have to pay the museum admission to eat here Great views while you eat too!"
