Olmsted Reviews from The Last Year
Such an incredible experience, everything was wonderful.
Each dish was so unique and delicious, especially the scallop crudo, and sitting at the chefs counter you get a behind the scenes view that's to die for. The staff (especially our server Kayleigh!) was all lovely, the meal beautiful, and we hope to be back soon!
Had a lovely time at Olmsted! All of the dishes were
Had a lovely time at Olmsted! All of the dishes were delicious - especially the scallop crudo! Kayleigh helped us and provided wonderful service. Definitely a must try if you're in Brooklyn!
In a world where excessive tipping culture is holding us
In a world where excessive tipping culture is holding us all hostage and making us furious, I was happy to leave 30% for my server. Just eat that they tell you to. They know what they're talking about. I'm still dreaming of their magical bread, foamy gnocchi, and stiff cherry cocktails.

Nice place, with ok service and pretentious food that sounds interesting but doesn't actually taste good.
Olmsted had been on my list since I first read about it in
Olmsted had been on my list since I first read about it in Condé Nast Traveler so I was excited for my first venture into Brooklyn as I usually spend time in Manhattan. I was well on my way until I got on the wrong train and realized to my dismay that I was going to be 45 minutes late! I tried calling the restaurant but was directed to email them which further stressed me out because I assumed I would have to make alternate plans. As soon as I entered, I apologized profusely to Michaela and she calmed me down immediately be explaining that even seasoned New Yorkers sometimes get on the wrong train. She did everything she could and secured me a seat at the bar. I was so grateful! As soon as I sat down, Mark, the bartender laughed and joked with me about my experience and soon after I was greeted by my waiter Greg, who was fantastic and by the end of the night, I was just in awe of the hospitality of the entire staff. The ambiance was warm and inviting and the curated playlist with artists ranging from Amy Winehouse to Corrine Bailey Rae and Outkast, created an invigorating and lively atmosphere. For drinks, I started with The Fennel which was really good, but the showstopper was Greg's creation which will soon be featured, "The Cucumber". It was fire and aesthetically pleasing! I like that you have an option for either the a la carte menu or the tasting menu and I chose the tasting menu and added on the pumpkin kouign-amann. The dishes were all delicious except I was not too crazy about the rutabaga tagliatelle. Olmsted is truly a neighborhood gem and not to be overlooked.
dinner on a Saturday night: food was mediocre.
the water server was great and otherwise the service was terrible; confused (bringing wrong dishes) and incredibly slow -- waiting 20 minutes for cocktails alone. Tables are squeezed so tight as to be claustrophobic. will not return
Ambiance was nice, cool plants and chill lighting but the
Ambiance was nice, cool plants and chill lighting but the food - super tiny and not good. Restaurant notes that they can accommodate allergies - I wrote my allergy (gluten) in the resy reservation and emailed them since they don't pick up the phone to confirm. No response. I arrived for my reservation and they offered me a menu with crossed out items and handwritten substitutions. I ordered the gf "cranberry" bread - no cranberries were in this bread and it was as hard as a rock. Ordered the broccolini tempura - it was 3 tiny pieces in unsalted starch with not much flavor. Ordered the potato gnocchi - it was a joke - it was cubed potatoes in a white soup... no effort whatsoever to make gnocchi. And the portions overall were tiny. We ordered most of the menu. Left hungry! The only part that was good was the dessert the froyo with the whipped honey. Would not come back for this "accommodated" meal.
This place is really really nice but something always feels
This place is really really nice but something always feels not quite up to the hype. That being said, the food is innovative and the menu changes every 3 months. The aesthetic and vibe is cool earthy modern. Wouldn't go out of my way, but would go again if someone wanted to!
Amazing place.
Just go! Hard to get a table but worth the persistance to get one. The vegetarian options are amazing.
We had a reservation for 4 at 8:30pm on a Saturday evening.
Despite our prompt arrival time, we waited an hour to finally be seated. When we did get to our table, our server was never explicitly introduced to us. The person we thought was on our table (they'd taken our drink orders on the patio) was not, and it took another 15 minutes for us to get water from the person who was our server. The experience just declined from there. They asked if we'd like still or sparkling water. I requested tap, as often restaurants in the area offer "still" and will bring bottled. The server's condescending response about still being the same as tap was irritating. The pacing for everything was just off - time it took for us to place orders for appetizers, for additional drinks, for dinner. I spoke to the manager about how long it was taking for us to get appetizers, and he assured us "the magic starts now." But it did not. We had a couple more incidents where we felt condescended to by our server, and ultimately we didn't leave until nearly 11:30pm. At the end there was no acknowledgement about our wait, the lack of improvement of service, or anything. The food was tasty. We enjoyed the scallop crudo immensely as well as the crab and kale rangoon. The duck liver bahn mi didn't stand out to us. The grilled pork entree was very good, if not particularly filling. The cheeseburger and duck fat fries as also a highlight. Despite the quality of the food, it's unlikely we'll return to Olmsted. Being kept waiting despite our reservation, the lack of concern by management, and the experience with our server just didn't inspire warm feelings.
Worthwhile Splurge
Casual vibe but serious food. Tasting menu starts in the garden and moves to your table. $150. Hard to believe how food with such flavor comes out of the microscopic open kitchen. We enjoyed every dish, but not for picky eaters, as no menu choice.
Relaxed fine dining, great food, exceptional service
I booked this for my birthday on a visit from the UK. Cosy environment, nice food (the thyme infused desert was the highlight), but what made it for us was the amazing service - so friendly and accommodating. Our main server was Nicole, who was an absolute delight, the sort of effortless service when you feel so relaxed and welcomed. There was a bit of a delay between two of the courses (and I mean a very short delay) and without question, Nicole apologised and brought us a large glass of her favourite wine and also gave us a dessert wine - which I don't normally like, but was so delicious! We left feeling very satisfied and smiles on our face, especially after a day of torrential rain, would definitely recommend. Thank you Nicole and the team at Olmstead! Cheers, Dan and Jack

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Appointment
I was waiting on the transfer for name but it hasn’t happened yet and my reservation is tonight , will it be an issue that is hasn’t changed into my name yet
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Just got scammed!
Thats unfortunate but you can always get your money back if they cancel the reservation.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
