Happy Monkey by Jean-Georges Greenwich Reviews
Food was pretty good and ambience was very nice.
The service was noticeably slow and inconsistent, but other than that it was a pretty try solid restaurant overall.
Great restaurant around the area if you want innovative
Great restaurant around the area if you want innovative Mexican food in Greenwich. Very nice ambiance with booth and table seats, with a chill, cool atmosphere. The food is excellent for the price, and I would definitely recommend the fish tacos, or

We were shopping on the Avenue, had this bookmarked so we went in. It was a Monday afternoon and neither one of us felt like a drink..... a very rare occasion. Our server was on point. She went over the menu with us. We ordered the trio of salsa w

Been here three times and think it's a great addition to the restaurant scene in Greenwich. Delicious food, good service and ambience though for some it may be a little on the loud side, but not terribly so. Really nice bar as well.
We are basing this on drinks alone.
We sat at the bar. It was a happening and busy Friday night. We loved the vibe. Service was good, but we felt the FOH was coasting on the restaurant's namesake and reputation. Which, ironically enough, is why we went. The drinks were delicious, and o

I was so excited to try Happy monkey, but it did not live up to all the fanfare. It was actually disappointing. Food was oily and over cooked. The menu seems to be everywhere, with nothing that stood out. Disappointing, but will try again in the futu

This very cool upscale eatery on Greenwich Ave (towards the bottom of the Avenue) has an interesting green style ambiance that is noticeable and striking. The velvet booths and wood tables work well with the Latin fusion themed wall art. I'm a fan.
Sorry but one of my least favorites in town.
Opened with a splash and the name seems to bring them back but not on my dance card. Twice was enough. Limited and uninteresting menu. Should I try again, maybe as I could have hit a rough patch, but there are so many reliably great alternatives with
Ginger Margarita was excellent.
Fried calamari was very well made. The tacos were a disappointment. I found the taste too salty. Overall I would return because the service, drinks and ambiance were great.

imagine being seated at 7 and told that they need your table by 8. Feels like being back in the Army, except now I paid 200$ for the rudeness of an over hyped establishment. The worse part is that after telling the manager, he didnt even offer an apo

What a beautiful restaurant on Greenwich Ave! So far I think this restaurant has the best vibe out of the ones I've visited so far on the Avenue. They have a great menu and really professional servers. Favorites included the Cuban and the croquette a

Had heard about this place and was so happy to finally check it out! We made a reservation for brunch. We got seated right away in a very comfortable booth. To start we had the tortillas with the three salsas. For my entree I had the eggs Benedict.
Happy Monkey tries REALLY hard to be a modern fine dining
Happy Monkey tries REALLY hard to be a modern fine dining establishment along the likes of what you'd find in New York/LA/Chicago. Unfortunately they fail to come anywhere close to that level of service & food quality. But, if you've never left t
Unique fusion restaurant on Greenwich Ave.
Loved the cocktail menu and found it to be very creative. The Concord grape margarita was tasty and a flavor I've never seen on menus before. The smaller plates were more seafood forward so I didn't try a ton, but the manchego bites were pretty good

Sizzling shrimp was overrated, but the lobster was wonderful. Good service, drinks were fine.

Sleek, sexy & Tropical channeling Indochine not what you'd expect in Greenwich. Jean George has created a great dining destination in Connecticut where local bounty abounds. Ate: Corn focaccia Grilled mitakes in a Chile vinaigrette Flounder tac

Excellent!! Sweet potatoes and fish tacos were amazing!! Drinks were fabulous and vibe was super fun. Service was also very very impressive.
The only thing that bothered me was that our waiter
The only thing that bothered me was that our waiter suggested a tequila but probably should have mentioned that it would cost $40/drink. It seems that this is something that should be disclosed, even if it is listed on the menu. Food delicious but th
Great experience, we've been here twice so far.
Had various tacos, salads, the beef tenderloin (OUTSTANDING), and the churros. Have to say, literally everything we've eaten here has been fresh and delicious and expertly prepared. We went at 6:30 to beat the rush as this joint is very popular. The

Awesome place to go if you're looking for a unique experience, tequila selection is top notch , and drinks are high quality. As for the food Jean George standard great balance and great flavor. One word hidden gem.
Absolutely amazing.
Start to finish. Tuesday live music 6:00 - 9:00 was a perfect addition. Foods we ordered off the charts amazing. Can't wait to go back

Our Greenwich friends invited us during our visit up north to Happy Monkey and the expectations ran high. We arrived on time for our reservation and we're promptly seated at a table in the middle of the very noisy restaurant. Being hearing impaired I
This is a nice and fancy place in the Greenwich area.
We were here visiting the Apple Store for some service and stopped by at this place for a drink while I wait my turn at the store. I ordered a beer, guacamole with chips and a sangria for my wife. The staff were very friendly and helped us understand
Service was great, starters were very good.
The Arroz Con Pollo was amazing. On the contrary, I ordered 2 bbq pork tacos and 1 fish taco, but I received 2 fish and 1 bbq pork taco. Not what I ordered. Also, the tortillas in the tacos, were cold, soggy, and flimsy. I would suggest toasting th

Meh.It's a modern place, with attentive personal, decent presentation, expensive and very very mediocre foodI just could not stomach almost diners quality of food.Our party of four had four appetizers and four main ones, none were worth to remember
I met a friend for dinner here this week.
The food was mediocre - not nearly as impressive as other Jean Georges restaurants I have visited in the past. I am willing to spend the money if the food is fabulous, but $30 for two small lobster tacos that didn't wow me was disappointing!

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Happy Monkey by Jean-Georges Greenwich at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Happy Monkey by Jean-Georges Greenwich page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Happy Monkey by Jean-Georges Greenwich to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Happy Monkey by Jean-Georges Greenwich!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
