Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've been raving about this book, so I thought I ought to write my first Amazon review. I'm sure dining alone is a hit or miss experience anywhere.But a bad experience is especially a drag in NYC, where you can waste big dollars (as well as rare free time), being treated badly. I use Zagat's frequently, and have wished they'd include a 'good for solo' category. I've found nothing in any other restaurant guide I've seen, either. So I was thrilled when I found this title at a bookstore, and I wasn't disappointed when I looked inside. It's well written (not annoying like some of these first person deals can be), and the reviews are really helpful---they cover the general stuff like food and service, as well as assessing the 'solo diner comfort level', with enough specifics so you can make your own final judgment. I've found that it works very well as a generic guide too, for non-solo dining: you have the food, ambience info., but also can figure that if a place is comfortable and welcoming to a solo diner, it would be a place anyone would enjoy. Now I'm just waiting for the Bar for One guide!

At last . . . welcome dining help for the lone travelerAnyone who has ever traveled alone has faced two options: ordering wildly overpriced room service, or braving unknown streets to dine alone. If one elects the latter, he or she could be greeted with rude looks, poor, indifferent service, too much noise, too little light, and disappointing food.Finally here is a book to rescue the lone diner and put the business traveler or newcomer to New York at ease when making a dining decision. In Table for One: New York, Author Michael Kaminer rates the restaurants in terms of friendliness, service, lighting, food, wines by the glass, and comfort--all from the perspective of the single diner. He also discusses what to expect in terms of price, food preparations, and clientele.
