I might not be hip enough to be qualified to write a review of Nyood because I am out of touch with their other restaurants, and classy joints in general. I am all for fancy places and spending a little coin on some quality food, but Nyood (terrible name) might be out of my league.
Located between The Social and Starbucks sums things up rather nicely. The decor and design of the restaurant is quite nice. The first time I went I was a little intimidated walking in with jeans and a t-shirt but the girl working the door was more than happy to have me and took my jacket with a smile. Maybe I didn't look like a million dollars but the staff didn't really seem to mind. Maybe they were happy to see something other than a suit for once.
I'm not well-versed in fine cuisine so I couldn't really make heads or tails of the menu. Luckily my friend was able to help me so I didn't have to embarrass myself by asking what certain items were. The food was in fact excellent and the service was also very good, but a little too pricey for me and I felt out-of-place amongst all the fancy and fabulous people.
With a little more preparation and money this might be a good spot to take a date or to just splurge on yourself. Though the location isn't the greatest spot for romantic dinner in my opinion. Queen and Dovercourt?
