Contento restaurant Contento Contento NYC They Don't honor reservations. Preferential treatment. New York New York
Have been dining here since they opened (they don't even remember us despite being open for a short time, whatever).We made a reservation quite in advance to celebrate Peru's independence day (this is a semi peruvian food restaurant near our home).
My wife arrived first, she was sitting at the bar, we thought we were waiting for an actual table (which, again we RESERVED, with anticipation). She was told they would not be giving us a table because there was a "larger party" coming in. They offered to "serve" us at the tiny bar or give us an outside table (in the scorching humid heat). We sat up and left. Never going back there.
The food is overpriced (but most NYC restaurants overpriced their food even more after the pandemic to make profit, it's almost impossible to go out in Manhattan now without breaking the bank). But the unfortunate thing with this restaurant is that they are so desperate to make it "trendy", prefering younger, noisier crowds who post inflated instagram photos and reviews, that they forget to cater to actual paying customers that would have been loyal if treated like human beings.
