What Guests Are Saying: Kyma Hudson Yards Reviews

Overall Google Review Summary: 4.5 (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) Based on 626 reviews

i) Ifren Arce: 1.5/5 (⭐️⭐️) (04-10-2025)

Our lunch experience was extremely disappointing. The meatballs were served cold (though they did replace them), and the staff handled our food rudely—dropping plates carelessly and tossing silverware haphazardly. One server even grabbed my water glass from the top, leaving an unpleasant taste.

The worst part was the steak: I ordered medium-well, but it arrived extra well-done—so dry that no amount of mayo or Tabasco could save it. I didn’t complain because I was hungry, but management should really train their staff better. “Lady M” provided terrible service with a bad attitude and zero hospitality.

Thanks again, Lady M, for the unprofessional experience.

Dine-in · Lunch

This place was amazing! The menu offers fresh seafood, perfectly grilled meats, and vibrant vegetable dishes. The sea bass was flaky and delicate, while the octopus appetizer had a delicious char and tender texture. For vegetarians, the grilled cauliflower was a standout—rich in flavor and beautifully presented.

Service was solid but occasionally slow. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, though the pacing could have been better, especially given the higher prices.

Overall, Kyma is perfect for a special occasion or a memorable night out.
