There are a number of different unique dining experiences that you can find when traveling in New York City. NYC has become known for its eclectic array of eateries and themed restaurants that have helped to put the city on the map as being one of the foremost culinary travel locations across the globe. One of the most unique places to dine across the city is the Jekyll and Hide Club. The restaurant is located in Manhattan and is themed after the 1886 Victorian Gothic novel of “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” written by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson. It is a great location to enjoy a unique experience with the family and friends and is a perfect place to take kids (and your camera) to create a lasting memory of your stay in New York City.
The restaurant is quite spooky inside and out and employs very ornately detailed decorations. The establishment is run like a dinner-theater in which the actors are your waiters and waitresses. Not only do they interact with you, they serve your food too! The entire wonderful atmosphere adds to the feel of the experience, and it is easy to forget that you are in Manhattan, and not in the evil lair of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde! Characters such as Ezra Von Gloome, Mr. Wrott, Mr. Goole, Butler Hives, and Theorora Brayne will help to make this one of the most unique dining experiences you have ever had the pleasure to enjoy. The restaurant is decked out in decorations and animatronic props and special effects that make the experience feel just that much more genuine. You can stop by to enjoy a dinner with your family, or throw a party or event (but be sure to plan well in advance as they venue books up quite often due to its popularity).
The food is to die for, and you can find nearly anything to suit your cravings. Fish, Beef as well as pork are served in wonderfully presented dishes and are quite moderately priced when you take into the account the depth of the experience that you are partaking in. One of our favorite dishes is the Char-crusted 12 oz Ribeye steak, which is served with wasabi mashed potatoes, stir fried veggies and bourbon butter. Even writing about it makes us hungry!
