We walked around in Soho looking for a place to have a drink after our meal and went to Boom Restaurant, where occasionally one of the worlds best guitarists was playing for just a very small audience. Believe it or not: The famous Al di Meola himself (!!!) entertained about 30 people in this small cosy litle restaurant where we... More

Atmosphere is great. Live music (Jazz) was great. Dinner started off really nicely - appetizers were great. Main course arrived and they were just very mediocre. Food quality wasn't up to par. Steaks were not cooked as ordered. More

This is just an overall solid restaurant. We went in the spring during lunch service and there were only a handful of people there but the service was attentive and the food was immaculate. This time we hit dinner service right in the middle of a Friday night rush, and even without reservations, they accommodated us. To be sure, NYC... More

Boom Restauant is in Soho. It is cozy, the food is delicious and well-priced, and the service is 100%. Even the wine is great and well-chosen by the bartender. It was like being in Italy in a small town for lunch. You can be comfortable dining with a friend, having a business meeting or just by yourself. The staff is... More

We ate at Boom the first night we arrived in NY from the UK. First visit, we wouldn't go back. The restaurant seemed OK in the dark, but the service was patchy despite the fact the place was less than half full. We were told there would be live music but by 10.00 am when we were drooping (3am uk... More

The food was terrific, and I've gone a bunch of times.. the only issue was the last time, when there was a soccer game on the television at the bar with the volume all the way up, and the whole bar screaming at the tv! :( More

We stopped here late night after seeing an Off-Broadway show. We were seating right away even though it was extremely crowded. It reminded me of a European restaurant where you sat right next to someone else. We don't really mind that so it was fine. The music and dancing was great and the atmosphere was awesome! The food was great!... More

Boom is located off-West Broadway and is hence surrounded by plenty of other bars and restaurants. Food is good, what makes this place worth goring to is the location, the people, the feeling, the design. Especially during summer, doors open up towards the street and it is a great place to hang out and do some people watching. More
