Restaurant Review LinksListed below are links to reviews of The Spotted Pig from around the web.
"A perfect eight quarter-size gnudi made from sheep milk ricotta along with some insane magic that must be drugs or something of similar nature. cause I COULD NOT STOP EATING THIS and could nearly not stop from moaning...."
"The best seats in the house are the stools by the window; you eat off the windowsill. The lower level is for a pint of Spotted Pig lager or ale (specially concocted by Brooklyn Brewery�s Garrett Oliver)...."
"Part cozy English pub, part laid-back neighborhood hangout, part gatronome's lure, The Spotted Pig showcases the impeccable food of Londoner April Bloomfield (Mario Batali and partners consulted). Pair the tang of roasted radishes with meltingly delicious..."
"I believe this was the first time I'd ever had chicken liver. One time I had beef liver sashimi at this Japanese Isekaka (drinking place) and it was the most disgusting thing I think I had ever eaten...."
" I believe this was the first time I'd ever had chicken liver. One time I had beef liver sashimi at this Japanese Isekaka (drinking place) and it was the most disgusting thing I think I had ever eaten...."
"Duck Hearts with pea puree was another plate. Rich pea puree that would have been great just slathered on bread with roasted duck hearts that had a similar flavor to chicken gizzards or liver. ..."
"The food is fantastic and I love that it is down the street. Can't say I love the lines but the food is just so damn good. ..."
"The hippest dish among New York City chef dudes at the moment is probably still the pig's ear at the West Village gastropub Spotted Pig, a huge, veiny appendage, carefully deep-fried to a deep bronze, presented naked and sputtering and unadorned on a plat..."
"The burgers here are great so we were happy to wait for a table even though only the limited brunch menu was available. We knew we wanted to try their dessert special, but were happy to leave since our waiter kept us waiting far too long...."
"The Blackberry bearer’s version of a dive, the Spotted Pig offers much of what you'd expect from your run-of-the-mill gastro-pub: a full bar, a meaty menu, dark-wood decor, sweaty bodies pressed up against one another with nowhere to escape, and an..."
"This was my second visit to the Spotted Pig (earlier report here). For a place that’s a gussied-up pub, the service is impressive. The server was well schooled about the unusual, one-time-only menu...."
"Service was impressive for a place that was so busy. The server had a lot of tables to cover, but she never lost track of me. The entrée took about 45 minutes to come out, but she comped a glass of wine and a serving of olives & almonds as partial recompe..."
"The service puts many two-star restaurants to shame, from the friendly hostess that found a bar stool for me when it appeared there were none, to another hostess that offered without prompting to transfer the bar tab to my table...."
"With some help from close friend and consigliere Mario Batali, a chef recommended by Jamie Oliver, and a cadre of high-profile music-business investors, A&R executive Ken Friedman opened The Spotted Pig in the 50-seat West Village premises formerly oc..."
"It’s no surprise that one of my favorite chefs, Mario Batali, helped open The Spotted Pig in the West Village. One look at the menu and a wanna-be foodie like me would immediately appreciate the tongue and the kidney, two items that are almost alway..."
"Ed, Alaina, Adam, Raphael and I (aka the Serious Eats family of awesome people) were getting our first look at the Berkshire pork rillette while eating a congratulatory, "Hooray, you didn't eff up the redesign! It was the first time all five of us ate out..."
""The Spotted Pig is the epicenter of alternative dining in New York, a ridiculously cramped gastro-pub in the West Village where you suffer physically and usually eat well...."
"Everything about The Spotted Pig was comforting and surprising at the same time. Our server was helpful and engaging, adding to the overall neighborly vibe. And the food was tasty and inventive, which gave me a second wind in wanting to explore food again..."
more from Think about split pea for a second. People don't eat that soup for the peas. The green whatevers are nice, but really just a conduit to the smoked ham hocky base. This soup captures that flavor but oomphs it up to turbo drive—and there's no peas in the wa]

"Chunks of slow-roasted pork sandwiched between two crusty-on-the-outside-tender-on-the-inside bread with a liberal slathering of good, strong mustard and sliced dill pickles. Wowza!..."
"Explore our site to find travel information and unbiased reviews on New York City tourism, hotels, attractions, maps and much more...."
"A proper New York day should end with a proper cocktail (or three) at the Waldorf's Peacock Alley. Choose three of their 20 martinis for $24 during their "Debriefing Hour" (that’s a high-class happy hour)...."
"Hype and celebrity glitz aside, the Spotted Pig is a very fine bistro, offering a combo of Tuscan food, pub grub, and invented dishes from chef April Bloomfield. Best of all is gnudi—featherweight pasta-less ricotta ravioli in a sauce of butter and sage..."
"The burger comes on an excellent, semi-soft bun that has a great char to it that gives it some crunch. The meat is top-quality too, a good 7 oz. or so and was cooked perfectly rare...."
