"We recently visited The Musket Room and had an unforgettable experience. We tried the Chef’s Tasting – Artist Series (Fall 2025) Vegan Menu, and every course was outstanding. The flavors were beautifully balanced, the presentation was stunning, and the creativity behind each dish truly shined. From the truffle tartlet to the parsnip course, each plate was thoughtful, unique, and absolutely delicious. The only element we didn’t love was the sourdough, which we found a bit too hard to bite—but everything else more than made up for it. The service was warm, attentive, and made the evening even more special. We truly appreciated how accommodating the team was and how seamless the entire experience felt. Highly recommend The Musket Room to anyone looking for an elevated, plant-based dining experience. We can’t wait to return!"

"The Musket Room is not to be missed! My partner and I came for a birthday-engagement celebration and it was truly a divine experience. We opted for the Omnivore tasting menu, which changes regularly. However, no matter what day you go, the menu is unparalleled. Highlights from tonight included the most impeccably cooked venison. I also want to spotlight the team who served us. Vanessa and Charles are the best in the biz. Their timing was perfect, their service unmatched. They also went out of their ways to ensure the experience was unforgettable. We’re already planning our next visit. The ambience is also welcoming, elegant, and provides the perfect amount of space. I highly recommend the Musket Room for your next special occasion. Thank you to Vanessa, Charles, and the rest of the Musket Room team for a wonderful birthday dinner.

"Service was exceptional, with attentive and knowledgeable staff. The atmosphere was really enjoyable, warm and inviting. The food... I mean what can I even say. From start to finish a delightful meal. We got the tasting menu (omnivore) and wine pairing and I can't recommend the experience enough. Such a great meal, and even some delicious chocolate bonbon at the end which was unexpected!"

"Really wanted to love this place since it’s been on my go to list for a few years. All in, we spent $235 (NO BOOZE) and left hungry. I know this is a tasting menu establishment, but if you go à la carte, please don’t charge $28 for a tasting menu (tiny) portion appetizer. Give a larger portion or lower the price. And give a side veg if we order a fish for two $100. Our server, who performed and sounded like Andrew Zimmern, was the best part of the visit."

"My husband took me to Musket Room for our anniversary, and the whole evening felt like slipping into a secret world. The restaurant sits on my favorite street ,peaceful, a little romantic, the kind of block that makes you walk slower. Musket Room itself is so discreet from the outside you could mistake it for someone’s private studio. I love that. It already feels like you’re being let in. Inside, the space unfolds into two calm dining rooms that look straight out of Scandinavia: warm woods, soft lighting, chairs carved with the kind of intention you feel before you notice. We had a corner table, quietly tucked away, basically the “VIP of intimacy.” You can see outside through the little windows which are very cozy and special. And along the wall, bottles of wine arranged almost like sculptures, a simple but thoughtful installation. The music is also very good, the service is fantastic, they have almost every different waiter for each dish, makes us feel very special. And then I learned the menu was inspired by a local artist. Suddenly everything made sense — the colors, the shapes, the way every plate had the confidence of a small canvas. No wonder the dishes looked like little artworks. They weren’t just cooked; they were curated. The cocktails are also very delicious, cherry on the top! Now let’s talk about the main characters! House-made Sourdough & Anchovy Butter A warm sculpture of a loaf, spiked like a mountain range. The anchovy butter melted like salted silk. Honestly, museum-worthy carbohydrates. Æbleskiver with Truffle A tiny golden sphere wearing a delicate truffle “painting.” One bite, but it gave big fairytale energy. Razor Clam with Potato, Leek & Sourdough Presented in a soft white bowl like a minimalist artwork. Subtle, clean, almost Japanese in spirit like tasting the memory of the ocean. Beets with Huckleberry, Caviar & Amaranth This one looked like a neon-purple mosaic. Vivid, textured, playful. Pure art plate. Jamón Ibérico with Mussels, Potato & Saffron Layers of color and texture. The saffron yellow against the pale ham felt like a gentle watercolor. Potato Gnocchi with Chanterelles, Pistachio & Sorrel Woodland tones. Greens, golds, browns. Eating this felt like being inside a forest painting. Scallop with Squash, Lime & Tamarind The scallop was bronzed like it had been seared under gallery lights. The squash added this glowing orange brushstroke. A beautiful contrast of colors. Lamb Shoulder with Black Garlic, Maitake & Cabbage Rich, dark, dramatic. The charred cabbage petals looked like a charcoal sketch. By the end, the whole experience felt like a quiet European escape disguised as dinner: Scandinavian design, French warmth, Japanese precision, New York creativity. And all wrapped inside a menu shaped by a local artist, which explains why each dish came out like a tiny edible artwork. A perfect anniversary , intimate, low-key, beautifully designed, and curated just for us, you can feel you had a little getaway to Europe somewhere but yet without leaving Nolita! My husband impressed me once again! 💖💖💖"
