What: Friend's Belated 2wenty1st
How: Peter D. recommended
Result: No frills, meat grilled, moderate prices, cheese slices, small spaces, happy faces.
Featuring: Great portions, friendly service, nice ambiance. Smoky Mac and Cheese w/ Bacon. Grilled Pork Chop. Breaded Steak. Almonsd Encrusted Fish (of some sort). Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake. Homemade Oreo. All very delicious and satisfying.
Hidden Gem: Ask to go to the bathroom. You will be told to acrobatically slide through to the back of the kitchen where the lavatory resides. The cooks will announce your arrival with an echo of "Coming through!"s. Through this ordeal, you will have the prime vantage point of the kitchen staffs applying their craft to the soon-to-be devoured, delightful delectables.
Just Missed: The long lines. We planned to meet at 7pm. Somehow my internal native New Yorker GPS got all screwed up by the intersection of W.4th and W.10th Streets, so it was my friends who put our name in and waited on the wooden bench right outside for about 10 minutes. We were seated pretty promptly as soon as I arrived. However, the 10 minutes waited were miniscule compared to the 30-minutes plus for the hordes outside after our dinner commenced.
Needs: Better selection of beer. Wine is nice but beer is fierce! Good thing their food made up for the lack. More square footage.
Verdict: I will definitely come back here again.
----------
Happy Berfday Danielle K.! We shall do this again Tiffany K. (formerly known as Tiffany E.)!
This place would have been an awesome date spot when I was in a relationship, great home style food, portions perfect for sharing, warm atmosphere, very basic decor and close tables that put you cheeck to jowl with the other happy couples in there.
Unfortunately I was out with another date and because I realised I would never get to share Westville with my ex. S.O. I was pretty much ready to cry into my mac 'n' cheese.
Westville you made a girl cry.
After frequenting the East Village location for over a year now, I finally made the trek across 6th ave to visit the original Westville with my mother. At first I was taken aback by the sheer size of the place. In my mind Westville E. is a bit cramped so this place feels like a shoebox in comparison, logistics aside though, what was of most interest here for me was the food.
Now while the menu doesn't stray too far from its sister restaurant's fare, I did note that a couple of my favorite things were absent from the menu, namely the Rock Melon Shake. Menu differences aside, the food here was wonderful. All of our Marketplace offerings were tender and juicy and to be honest I'm not sure I've ever had better tasting brussel sprouts before.
Overall the trip to Westville was everything I had hoped for and more. While the seating here is cramped, it lends to the charm of the space. I'm not sure how often I'll come back here, as it is some distance away when compared to how close I am to the E. Village outpost but I will say that if you're in the area, it definitely makes for a nice place to stop and grab a bite.
I've had brunch here three times and dinner at Westville East half a dozen or so. Food here is deliciously fresh and an excellent value. The Grilled Lemon Herb Marinated Chicken with two sides from the market is enough for two (for $13) as are any of their salads.
Menu highlights include:
-Lime corn on the cob
-Chocolate milk shake - might be the best I've had in NY
-Veggies from the market
To avoid a long wait, go for brunch. I've never had to wait for more than 10 min. For Westville East, I recommended eating at the bar.
Ordered Westville again last night for delivery. It's become my go-to place when I'm feeling like a fatty and need to inject some healthy food into my tum asap!
The lemon herb grilled chicken is perfection. It comes with your choice of two sides for $12...AND there's plenty for last night's dinner and left overs for today's lunch - thank you! The boy always gets the grilled salmon over mixed greens, mint w/ lemon dill dressing...fresh and flavorful EVERY TIME.
Maybe next time I'll actually show my face in the establishment itself. Then I'll truly know if Westville deserves that fifth star.
This place is AMAZING! A health-nut foodie's dream come true.
We had a bunch of stuff, I ordered the lox omelette which came with toast and greens. So good! And my friend the granola with yogurt/fruit. We shared the veggie platter, which goes for 4 items for $13? It's vegetables grilled and seasoned to perfection. I have nothing but good things to say about this place!
So much to love about Westville!
- Blended mint lemonade
- Brussels sprouts
- Broccoli
- Beets and goat cheese
- Egg cream
- Pork chop
Westville's one of the few places where ordering the vegetable plate will actually yield amazingness (the pork chop is also a nice complement to the veggies, just sayin'...)
Oh and the delightfully snarky curly haired waiter? A complete doll that made my Pride weekend complete. Always take his veg suggestions - the folks next to us didn't and they had serious food envy when my plate arrived.
Enough time has passed since I had been an employee at Westville (East & Original) that I feel I can give an unbiased review.
Once you get a table, Westville is hands down, one of THE best date places in the city. The surrounding neighborhood makes this SMALL/COZY spot a great detour on a night out.
The food/price/freshness trifecta occurs with virtually every order. You will be treated to a large plate of FRESH food (w/ a LONG list of daily specials). You'll spend about $20 for a drink, entree, and dessert.
Some of my favorites: Any of the Burgers (they come on a Portuguese Muffin. You haven't had one?? TRY IT), The salads are quite hearty, and the house dressing is out of this world. I'd also highly recommend any of the veggies available on the daily "Market Plate".
Yes, you might have to wait a few minutes for a table, but make some friends outside. . . It is more than worth the wait.
Came here for a late Sunday brunch with one of my best friends a few weekends ago, and payed the price of having to wait with a bunch of other brunchers for at least 45 minutes to get seated...but it was totally worth it.
This place is TINY but as a plus our food came out right away since there's a limited number of customers at a time. Both of us had brunch specials (amazing) involving eggs, and split the fruit with yogurt. We gazed longingly at the market fresh veggies but were too full for another bite...but everything I've had here before has been fabulous.
T loves there MAC & CHEESE, so when T took me to the East Village one, I was REALLY disappointed!
T agreed that it wasn't as good as their West Village location, so when T said we're going to Westville in West Village - I wasn't too excited.
There was a wait to get inside this place - this place is so much smaller than there EV location. I was surprised they have a restroom inside this joint but not surprisingly, you have to walk into their kitchen to get to.
I just shared with whatever T ordered - it was all really good - MAC & CHEESE with Bacon, Crabcakes and Chicken Tenders!
I love their spicy buffalo dip since it's actually spicy!
I must rave about their FROZEN MINT LEMONADE - YUMS and soooooooooooooooooo refreshing!
I definitely would come back here but perhaps not order so many heavy items.
This is one of the few places in Manhattan that actually does justice to fresh market vegetables, letting them shine in all their natural beauty. Oh and they also have meat for those that want it.
Usually I'm all meat all the time, but at Westville, you have to bask in the glory of the $13 4-veggie plate! Yummy yummy kale!
On top of all this food fabulousness, the prices are right especially for the vegetables, service is good, and they take credit cards in the west village. What more could you ask for?
I have a feeling I'm going to have to eat here a lot more often. After reading and re-reading reviews, bookmarking, mapping it out and reminding my friends that we need to go here ... I finally convinced someone to go with me to Westville. The heavy humidity and heat of late afternoon made for a slightly stifling atmosphere in this tiny neighborhood joint but we were seated right away (Monday, around 7pm) near the window.
The menu is overwhelming...so much goodness and so many ways to consume it. I wanted to try the $13 four sides option but couldn't really commit to choosing 4 within the limited selection (I can't have three types of mashed potatoes for dinner, right?). So I went with my first instinct: the greek salad over grilled bread with melted herb goat cheese, olives, cucumbers, red onions, feta cheese. Sounds tasty, right? Well, it was pretty effing ferociously incredible. Unfortunately, we also decided to start with the smoked mac 'n cheese with bacon appetizer which is also the $#%$^#ing amazing kind of wonderful so after I scarfed down 2/3 of that my huge salad wouldn't fit in my belly. I tried, and failed. But I actually chose to take it home because it wasn't fair to either of us to part ways like that.
The price is right and the food is good. This is one of those places where I can see myself bringing friends when I need an easy no brainer lunch or dinner since it packs a mean punch with dishes ranging from vegetarian healthy to downright grease monkey paradise. It's not good for a large group, but perfect for a two person feast! Beer/wine only and they take credit cards!
Just before I left New York, I met up with some friends for a late lunch. We were looking for something light, so Westville was suggested. Its a nice little hole in the wall, with maybe 7 tables overall. My friend was actually hesitant to suggest it, saying there's usually a wait to get in, but there was no wait.
I wasn't that far removed from a late breakfast, so I just had a bagel with cream cheese. Not much to say there, but it was good. I tried some of my friends veggies, and they were great. I really liked the asparagus, which I think had parmesan grated over it. The brussels sprouts in honey dijon were very good too (yes mom, I like brussels sprouts). The scramble another friend got looked and smelled fantastic. I like the concept of combining various dishes, to be able to mix and match to your taste at the moment.
Our server was attentive and polite, but even without a line I did feel some pressure to turn the table over. They also have boylan's sodas, which are among my favorite soft drinks. Westville is a welcome addition to my list of places I need to get back to on future visits to New York.
This place is a mecca. A plethora of veggie dishes for even non-veggie enthusiasts, the best quality hot dogs (yup, hot dogs) and several kinds of pie on the menu.
The place is small but the wait wasn't very long, even on a Saturday night. They even served us drinks while we were waiting. We scanned the menu before but was given an additional menu with the daily specials.
The market sides are all the veggie dishes. The selection changes almost daily. There's usually 15 or more to choose from, ranging from cactus salad and brussel sprouts to soy glazed green beans to kale. While I definitely like some sort of protein with my dinner, this place makes me look forward to the veggies.
The hot dogs are all natural and very good, too.
It had a very cozy atmosphere and the staff was very friendly.
After finishing up with work at 1, my coworkers and I only wanted two things: beer and food, preferably in that order. We were really craving something big, sort of heavy, and comforting. In other words: American!
I'm glad we went to Westville for lunch. It's a great little New York restaurant where you feel completely at ease. When I say little though, it's pretty small with limited seating. Our wait at lunch was short though, and there were 4 of us. We just signed our name on the clipboard and were seated within probably 10 minutes.
The best part was that we never felt rushed. The staff was really friendly. I expected them to be giving us death eyes to finish up as quickly as possible, considering how small the restaurant is and how many people were waiting for a table. But nope!
We immediately order a round of Summer Ale for $4. Yes, please. Then we each set out to find the perfect dish. ONE PROBLEM: IT ALL LOOKS GOOD. The fat kid in me usually spies something right away and goes with his gut's first reaction. But, seriously, I must have looked at the menu for anywhere from 7-10 minutes. Do I match things up from the Market? Should I go with an appetizer and something else small? Sometimes I'm surprised I can even get through a day of decision-making when I feel intense pressure over lunch.
I ended up choosing a grilled chicken sandwich that was part of the daily special. It came with fries and was exactly what I wanted: filling, delicious, and padded my stomach with true comfort. My friend got the infamous Mac & Cheese (yes, please!) and a side salad. Another friend got the hamburger with fries, and another chose the steak sandwich with fries. We were four very happy campers. And you will be too.
Love this place. Always came here for lunch and dinner but recently discovered their brunch----AMAZING! They always have different brunch specials and I have yet to be disappointed----artichoke and parmesan frittata? yes please.
They are also rocking a great iced coffee as of late.
Good food at good prices, perfect middle ground between divey and fancy. All the ingredients seem very fresh and well prepared. The place is pretty small and can get really busy but you won't really be disappointed. I waited too long to write this review to bore you with bite-2-bite details (I do remember the scallops tasted great) but I'll be sure to go back and write sooner...
I would not recommend trying to use the bathroom in the restaurant, since getting there means walking through the galley kitchen, which is an experience similar to many Japanese obstacle-oriented game shows.
Great neighborhood-y spot, and the first restaurant to survive in this space in a long time. Menu stand-outs include the turkey burger, and the the Niman Ranch "fearless franks" are also solid.
The hipster employees will always low-ball you on how long until your meal is ready if you're picking up, so do yourself a favor and add 10 minutes. No reservations, so the crowd outside can get kind of large, and they do not usually let you drink beer/wine on the sidewalk, probably because they're so close to the police station.
In a city where there are so many restaurant options to explore, there are very few places that I have gone back to more than once. I have been to Westville 5 times and that is saying a lot!!
Every time I go, I get different variations from their Veggie Market plate. Many options of fresh veggies cooked in amazingly tasty ways. Other friends have ordered other things off the menu and have not been disappointed.
The only downside is that the West Village restaurant is so small that you can wait a really long time to get seated. However, the one in East Village is just the same and with more room - just less of a romantic ambiance.
If you are going on a date, go to the one in West Village. You are practically eating with the people next to you, but it's cute and charming. If you have more than 3 people, go to the East Village.
The best turkey burger in the world. I am pretty sure the secret ingredient is crack.
Enjoy!
Yep, I was satisfied with this place. Really small, went early on a Wednesday evening and walked right in...but I can see this place getting crowded quickly.
The "specials" menu was almost as large (or larger) than the actual menu. Many "market" items, which looked yummy - but I didn't try any yet.
Had the mac & cheese as an appetizer - used those large spiral noodles so it holds the cheese well. Cheese was a little watery for my taste, but I guess I'm used to my mom's homemade mac & cheese. Also tried the newport steak sandwich - steak was slightly chewy, but horseradish mayo was awesome. I usually don't like sweat potato fries, but they had great fries!
$7 glasses of wine and $5 beers. This is a great West Village-y place to take out of towners when they come visit you and want to go to a unique NYC eatery.
Overall prices were just right. Less expensive compared to other places in the area. And who doesn't love W10th street!?
4.5*s! Oooh YES!....Minus 0.5*s because of the tinyness of the place and I had to wait in the rain :0
I happened to finish a pretty intense workout in Hell's Kitchen and decided to walk down to the West VIllage to cool off and then grab some simple yet fulfilling grub!
Westville is my ''go to" place in the West Village and Westville East is on the East Village. I can guarantee myself a fresh, hearty, home-cooked meal usually involving a whole load of colorful vegetables!
There were always many "Market" veggies to choose from and you could choose 4 to come in a plate! My favorite thing was the pork chop...but then there was the swine flu....and I wasn't feeling meat that day...must've been the voice of my mother in the back of my head! @_^
The "Markets" came out on a plate looking like a color palettte and I felt AMAZING eating all those DELICIOUS veggies...each was prepped differently so the tastebuds could go on a wonderful culinary adventure!
I was sitting next to these girls who ordered the 4 "markets", which already had sweet potato fries in it...it was so good they finished it and had to get another full order of just the fries... I saw them devour the entire thing within minutes! L@@KED YUMMY!
.....Must come back for those next time!
This place was so tiny so be prepared to wait @ LEAST a 1/2 hour for a table for 2 @ any given day...but it's worth it.. TRUST ME!
I think Westvilla is the best find I've ever made through Yelp. I counted 9 two tops. If you want to be seated in a group over three during peak dinner hours I'd suggest you break up or you'll be waiting. We went on a Wednesday at just before 7 p.m., and put our names under another two top and waited about 15 minutes.
I saw a couple eating family style. Meaning they got a fish dish and four seasonal veggie sides (which is 4 for $13) and split all of it. The seasonal menu both on the entree side, and especially on the veggie side is substantial. For a place like this there is no reason to order off the regular menu.
I mention this below, but this place is really tiny, and the kitchen is tinier, but man, what a place.
It takes a lot for me to give out 5 stars and I would give this six. I just wish that we had a Westvilla in Vancouver - I love everything about it. The only thing I was disappointed in was my ordering - which I'll share more on below.
The Good:
- Simple but varied regular menu.
- Great seasonal menu.
- Small, but quaint with not overly friendly, but very efficient service - and I'll always take the latter if given a choice.
- The turkey burger was SUPER. Huge, juicy patty in a great Portuguese "muffin," with some terrific sweet potato fries.
- The corn appy - I could've just had corn. I'm a corndie and their corn is a must.
- Instead of fries I went for a seasonal veggie side - snowpeas with garlic and sesame seeds which was tasty.
- The mint chocolate chip milkshake was very good.
The Not Good:
- This was my fault. I ordered a steak sandwich. I really should have gone off their seasonal menu and gone for the soft shell crab sandwich - my bad.
- Snowpeas should have had the ends cut off. But I'm splitting hairs. This place is a "go place."
I'll be coming back. Everytime I hit NYC I will make a point of making it out to Westvilla. Not only is it great food, but our total bill came to $40 for two entrees both with special sides (an extra two bucks each), an appy, and a milkshake - which makes it a great value as well.
i ate here 5 times a week easy when i lived in new york. the staff is pretty much family. i heart westville. and i miss it. i hope you guys are all still doing well and i will visit you soon to bring the cali lovin your way!
my faves (if this is possible):
grilled cheese
mac n cheese
teriyaki salmon
scrambles
KALE/pesto mash/cherry tomatoes/green beans
tomato soup (when they have it)
i've had each of the above upwards of 30 times. so just trust me.
I agree with Stacy L.-- I could eat here every day because they seem to have everything-- you name it, comfort food (mac and cheese, burgers), healthy eats (tasty veggies, tofu), basic staples (sandwiches and salads), brunch, plus, amazing dessert!
I came here early with my friend visiting from out of town who thank God, insisted that we eat here. For three of us, we ordered two sets of $12/$13 dishes (total of 8 items). Our favs were the beets, the amazing sweet potato fries, kale and asparagus. The tofu was also yummers. But, can I say what a pleasant surprise the dessert items were? The chocolate souffle topped with mint chocolate chip ice cream and the apple pie (not too tart, not too sweet) a la mode were perfect endings to a pretty balanced, semi-healthy meal.
Are you hungry now? Trust me, the wait is worth it. Oh, one thing to note is the interesting, tiny bathroom set up. Well, you gotta go there to experience it....
yay went back today! Got to try their mac and cheese with bacon....it was prettttttttttttttty darn good. Not overly cheesy and i liked the smokey flavor.
P.S. They use smoked gouda cheese ;)
I also really like how they do sauteed veggies.....for once, I don't have to go into a chinese restaurant to find some cooked veggies!
This place is AMAAAAZING!
The staff were friendly and funny.
The food is all about fresh ingredients.…

Grand slam of home cooked comfort food that is sadly being weeded out in the average American home.
Places like Westville make me SOOO happy to be in New York, you simply cannot find a place like this anywhere else. We were already full from our Brooklyn dessert excursion, but just HAD to have the mac'n'cheese (with bacon, of course), the crab cakes and salad and four different kinds of veggies plus lemonade.
Where do I start? The mac--so delicious, not at all rich or heavy, but instead was light and smokey as promised, the bacon adding perfect flavor. The crab cakes were light and fluffy with tasty sauce. The veggies--exactly how I like to cook them, and perfect. The lemonade, awesome.
The extra added bonus was that the playlist was PHENOM. I literally loved every song on it.
DEFINITELY worth a visit and definitely worth the line. I LOVE this place.
YO. I wish I like knew about food so i could properly describe what I had here. But just know that the food is unreal, the space is really good... even though it's so small somehow you find yourself listening to like ten other conversations. The wait can be a bit long (half hour on a Wednesday night) but it's totally worth it. The bro that acted as the host and waiter last night ruled. Really fierce attitude on the street and then super nice once we were inside. This is the only part of town I get lost in... was nice to actually do something besides try to skate myself out of the West Village. Highly recommended.
I had lemon-marinated chicken with asparagus with some kind of beastly cheese and sauteed cherry tomatoes, CLUTCH. To start I had their macaroni and cheese which is grilled somehow, as well as corn on the cob with lime and that same cheese... I pretty much mixed it all together. It was awesome. Heard there's one in my neighborhood, probably won't check it out.
The first few times I walked by this place, I assumed it was a chicken and rib joint, and nothing for a vegetarian in search of home cooking. I was soooooo wrong.
The market plates of fresh veggie sides are unbelieveably tasty. Fresh greens, simple preparations, and generous portions make me happy. Mac and cheese, as recommended by pretty much everyone and their mother, asparagus with feta, sweet and sour collards, kale, cherry tomatoes, cauliflower dijonnaise, and green beans with almonds all landed on our tiny table quickly. It's a crowded little space, but my friends and I polished off the food and cleared that table fast.
A side note: one of my friends wanted to order a separate meal to go, and a complicated bill split. I mean like high calculus bill splitting, and she was tired, so she wasn't making it any easier for the waiter. This guy handled it really well, got our take out plate to us as soon as we finished the meal, and laid that split bill down like a dealer in Vegas. I give him 5 stars just for that complicated mess.
I love you Westville, and not just in the friendly, let's hang out way.
I come here for brunch with friends and the occasional dinner. The food is consistently excellent. And the price is really reasonable. The specials menu is always a win.
I usually order the egg white scramble with spinach and mushrooms for brunch. The portions are really good and they offer a portuguese muffin as a bread option. Very delicious!
Good coffee.
For dinner I've tried: hot dog, steak sandwich, hamburger, fish (from specials menu). They also make a really great grilled corn side dish - the kind with lime juice and contija cheese. This is a must-try.
Everything I've had was great.
This place is tiny which means it is cozy and friendly. Although it is not a good spot for kids. You also have to be ok with a wait because there's not many tables. But it's worth it.
I finally made it to Westville, after hearing from one of my best friends who goes weekly how great it is. Was really fabulous - I have to agree with everyone else that the 4 vegetable plate for $13 is a great bargain.. all the vegetables are fresh and seasoned perfectly. Make sure to get there on the earlier side-- they do sell out of the best veggies. Loved the brussel sprouts, bok choy, sweet potato fries (yes they count)..
the natural hotdog was so good, i got 2!! Would go back in a heartbeat.
Yum. Ate here 1 week ago and I'm still dreaming of the veggie platter. We got beets, asparagus, bok choy and kale. Then we ordered two of the pricer special entrees and bottle of wine. The tab was under $100! The food was fresh, flavorful and not greasy. I could eat here 5 times a week!
Tiny place in the west village, Came early on a Saturday night and waited about 30 mins for a table for 4. I don't like vegetables but these looked good enough to try, and they were!
I was impressed how quickly the tables moved - i never felt rushed by my waitress but people were still in and out quickly
I went with a group of four on Saturday around 2pm, and we were ALL very satisfied with our brunch meals. I had the lamb sausage and eggs special with a Portugese muffin - very delicious.
My only complaint is that it's small on the inside. Paired with the fact that Westville is very popular, it usually means there will be a wait to get seated so you have to factor that in while your stomach is grumbling and you are standing outside! However, the quality of food and service definitely outweighs any waiting time!
I love this wonderful, neighborhood place. It's tiny and yes, it's crowded so you just have to go early or late to avoid the wait that can get ridiculous. I think this place captures the philosophy of "simple is the best".
I usually get the plate of 4 market vegetables because I'm an indecisive person when it comes to ordering and the option to try multiple things always catches my attention. The market vegetables are prepared in a minimalist fashion, but the wonderful, natural flavors of the vegetables are brought into the spotlight.
Delicious.
This place is great. Can't find many places who offer so many veggies as an option, but with a place like Westville - it's possible. The 4 sides for $13 is M-O-N-E-Y. The portions are huge, and they are great. I ordered cauliflower, sweet potato fries, butternut squash, and garlic potato hash. I will say that the cauliflower and sweet potato fries were the best of the four. I expected way too much hype from the mashed potatoes and didn't see the hype from it. I did enjoy my $5 black bean chorizo soup though. Too bad they don't offer the appetizers during brunch, otherwise I would have ordered the turkey chili.
Yes, the place is tiny. I would go early to avoid a long wait. I came at 12:20pm on a Saturday and waited about 15 minutes. Coming 15 minutes early helped save me from the madness of people who showed up at 12:30 and had to wait even longer.
What makes this place great is that it caters to health conscious people who don't want an overload on cholesterol. What's even greater is the ridiculous cheap-for-nyc prices. If they like you, they just might not charge for your coffee or OJ, atleast they didn't charge us. :) That was awfully nice of them. My tab of lots of food plus beverages for two only came out to $27. Sweet.
A fresh, healthy delicious meal that left me wanting more. I'm not a vegetarian at all, but I could definitely spend DAYS just eating vegetables at Westville. My friend and I shared the sweet potato fries, garlic mashed potatoes, asparagus sprinkled with parmesan and mushroom with leeks. The sweet potato fries were especially good, a slightly thicker cut, lightly fried and very sweet and potato-y inside; a bigger portion would have been very much appreciated. We also had almond-crusted trout with a lemon dill dressing served over a delicious salad and sliced avocadoes, which was nicely done.
As for the space, it is small, but welcoming. We didn't have a wait because we got there at about 6:30, but from our table we could see the line of hungry diners huddling on the outside waiting for their turn.
Overall, there were many other items on the menu that I would have loved to try, and I def hope to go back.
I get hyped up when I read hype on Yelp. I'm telling you to get HYPED over this place. I love NYC for creating a place like this, a small eatery that serves great food at a decent price.
I'm going to my first Yelp event and I want to get some good chow in me before the show.
I read on Yelp this place kicks major bootie so I'm there!
Small cozy place, the waitress looks friendly. I see the specials and I choose a fish burrito.
Folks, this burrito was PACKED with fish. How can they turn a profit? Big Scallops, Cod and Salmon with avacodo slices and a funky spicy dressing. The burrito also had a panini grill taste that gave it two mutha funkin snaps high!
They had a killer dessert menu but I had to pass, another time!
NYBULLY
I ordered Westville last night for dinner by recommendation of some friends. Per all of the reviews, Westville far exceeded my expectations!
I ordered the arugula salad and vegetarian soup for delivery... the portions were really big (enough for two) and the total cost was very affordable ($13). Additionally, the delivery only took about 15 minutes.
Delicious! Definitely a go-to for quick, delicious food in the hood :)
Don't bring a girl here to break up with her.
Westville is a great little restaurant, hidden on a side street whose one major flaw happens to be that it's small, meaning that the cold air will envelop you each time the door opens.
And don't bring a girl here to break up with her.
I had the poached salmon on a baguette, and it was delicious. The pesto sauce they used (they call it lemon dill, it tasted like pesto to me) was fantastic and even tasted great on the side salad that came with it (you can also get fries instead). Sure, I added mustard for a tangy taste, but I add mustard to everything.
Also? Don't bring a girl here to break up with her.
My companion had the crab burger (I don't see it on the menu online, but I swear she had it) and she loved it, fries and all. The smoky mac n' cheese is also enjoyable, on the level of a Fred's.
Swear to all that's holy, don't bring a girl here to break up with her.
The main downside I mentioned earlier? How small the restaurant is? Yeah, about that. When you're trying to have a really intimate, difficult conversation, it's entirely likely that the people bored by their inane existence will spend all their time listening to you as you attempt to delicately extricate yourself from this relationship.
And they won't be coy about it, either.
