The restaurant is lovely. Lots of eye candy. Beautifully and creatively decorated.
All the staff we met were very nice. We did have an issue with one of our tapas dishes. We very specifically requested NO PORK. Strictly pork-free. One of the servers came and looked at our dishes and seemed to be giving that a lot of attention. But we did encounter pork. A strip of bacon in one of the plates. And the Fanta ordered at the beginning of the meal wasn't received until the end of the meal. Not sure what happened there. Our overall experience was still nice. And I think I'd still return.

After seeing "Moulin Rouge", My husband and I were walking back towards New York Penn Station and decided we were hungry! The sound of salsa music pulled me in to Patron! I could not resist! It was an excellent choice. I remember commenting to my husband while we were there just how friendly the staff was. Super attentive! The atmosphere was very relaxing and colorful! We both ordered tostadas because we were looking for a lighter choice. Perfect! Their guacamole looked delicious, though, and I think I might want to get that next time. I enjoyed a white peach margarita and it was everything I hoped it would be!

March of 2023 was my first time visiting Tribeca Performing Arts Center. It was surprisingly open and comfortable. My husband and I really enjoyed the performance and the gathering spaces outside the theater were lovely as well. I also appreciated the convenience of getting to this location from the Oculus in downtown. I would look for future performances at this theater due to its convenience of location and comfort!

I have lived in this area since 2015, but only discovered this memorial accidentally on a recent visit for a show at Tribeca Performing Arts Center. My husband and I had arrived to the area early, so we decided to just walk around and explore. Both of us being of some Irish descent, we were very interested in taking this in! I actually think I would like to return and spend more time reading all there is to read on the walls! When we were there, it was the end of March. It was hard to tell if the vegetation on the hill leading to the top of the memorial was meant to look sort of poorly managed or if it was a transitional time of the year. I would be interested to go back when things are in full bloom and see if there has been any change there. It looked like a good space to have a lovely garden, but that was not the case at the time. Being that it is an Irish hunger memorial, I thought there was a possibility that appearance was intentional.

I LOVED this cute place to dine while walking about the older part of Frankfurt. My husband and I just stumbled upon it around lunchtime, and we were hoping for local cuisine, so this seemed like a decent choice. It was a beautiful day, so we THOUGHT we'd eat outside at one of their tables, but upon entering the restaurant, we were enchanted! I had to get a table in that place! And we didn't have to wait! I could hardly blink for fear of missing something cute hanging from the ceiling or on the wall. Rich woods, lots of signs with quotes written on them in German, artwork EVERYWHERE, painted glass... all were a feast for the eyes!
And what a menu! We both decided on the Sweineschitzel and a couple beers. It was all perfect! We sat at a large table against a wall so we could take in everything around us. The other diners seemed like locals, except for two couples who walked in after us. The host (maybe he owned the place) was cheerful and lovely. I hadn't noticed a sign that they only took cash! A minor inconvenience, as there were other ATMs nearby (note that many of these are actually located inside stores/restaurants and not out on the street).
We were so thrilled with our choice and I'd take others there on a future Frankfurt layover!
