Dorlan's Tavern & Oyster Bar

Dorlan's, located in the historic South Street Seaport in New York City, is a fantastic spot that perfectly balances a classic pub atmosphere with high-quality food and drinks. I recently went there and was thoroughly impressed, especially by their take on comfort food classics. My friends and I were craving something hearty, and we were not disappointed. We ordered a big chicken sandwich and a juicy burger to share, and both were outstanding. The chicken sandwich was a true showstopper—perfectly fried to a golden crisp while remaining incredibly moist and tender on the inside. It was a generous size and had a fantastic, flavorful crunch with every bite. The burger was equally impressive. It was cooked to a perfect medium, with a patty so juicy and rich that it practically melted in your

I’ve been here a few times with the family, and the food has been excellent during previous visits, which is why we chose to return recently. Most of the dishes were great, but unfortunately, the hamburger sliders were severely undercooked. One of the servers (not the one attending to us) took the sliders back with the intention of correcting the raw patties, only to return with them still undercooked. It appeared they put our half-chewed sliders back into the oven or a plate to try to cook them, but they were still raw. We had to tell the server that we did not want the raw ground beef patties. Our actual server was friendly and took the sliders off our bill. We will be returning, but likely will not be trying the sliders again.

I came with low expectations on a Sun eve, and walked away impressed. Solid 4.2 here. They started me off on the flavored house popcorn, within the first 2 minutes, which set the pace for my speedy (roadrunner) experience. The mango avocado salad appeared in like 60 seconds after ordered, was mostly arugula with a smattering of mango and tomatoes - Dorlans must have felt the recent tariff hit on the avos so really hard to track down, or maybe just didn't have time - good healthy taste overall. The fish n chips was very good, good beer batter and fresh fish. Now if I could only replace those skinny fries with British fat fries... Overall, recommended. I'll be back to sample more of that menu.

By far, the BEST watermelon margarita I have tasted has been at this spot! Delicious!!🍉🍹👌🏼 Their buffalo chicken wrap and fries were very good too. The service was excellent. Recommend to try.

We went here after walking around the pier for dinner. Ordered the calamari, fish and chips and al pastor tacos. Also got a spicy margarita and a beer. We sat outside since I had my puppy with me. The server was nice to bring out a separate container of water for my puppy to drink. The tavern wasn’t busy at all so was surprised that it took some time for us to get our food. Other than that, food was good and was a nice night to eat outside.
