Raoul's Riyadh Reviews
Lots of good and bad.
Excellent crab beingets. Seafood risotto was bland and the shrimp overcooked. Service was very good but also very noisy and cramped. General thought is overpriced and trading on past glory.
We came here on a Sunday without reservation.
Took us ~30 minutes to be seated (we sat at the bar), but it was absolutely worth it. We tried the burger which I heard is one of the best and the steak, both really good. Staff were friendly and the ambience and the vibe was amazing. Will I come bac
Fabulous.

Like a mediocre steak covered in cream sauce, Raouls is an ok restaurant covered up with a heavy amount of style and sex appeal. With a burger you can only get if you have plan your day around attaining one, to a tarot card reader that appears on you

Ate here for brunch (although it felt more like lunch than brunch, for what it's worth). I had the burger, which I absolutely loved. I'd say one of my favorites I've had in the city, for sure. That "au poivre" touch to it was great (but if
Burger was totally worth the hype.
It is on the more pepper side. I booked a brunch reservation (since the Raoul's Burger Au Poivre is unlimited). The French fries are great. Would go back in a heartbeat

The restaurant was wondeful, but be careful of the tarot card readers, they'll shake you down for $50
This place is FABULOUS.
We were visiting and it was recommended by a friend. Martinis are perfection. And the steak and pom frites were amazing. It was a super crowded and popular spot. Clearly a well-loved institution in NYC and I can see why! We would absolutely recommend
Yes, that burger is excellent.
The sauce is delicious, the fries are crispy and fresh. This is a top 3 burger for me. Kind of weird going upstairs to the bathroom. If you're older, I can see people having issues.
This is what a bistro in New York City should be.
The place was packed but somehow cozy. Noisy yet somehow intimate. We had a world-class experience. The salad frisee was lovely, the steak au poivre was perfection, as were the fries, and the wine we chose from their wonderful wine list (I recommend

I cut into it before snapping the pic, but it was absolutely fantastic. A little heavy on the peppercorn, but it gave it a nice kick. The service and vibe were amazing as well. A small space but it hit all the right marks!
Snagged a last minute resy for Sunday brunch.
Burger hack: usually their legendary burger is limited at the bar only. On weekends there is no limits and folks comfortably walked in with no reservations table and bar at 11. Speaking of the burger, this was a tasty creation with au poivre sauce s
Fine dining experience matched by excellent service and quality
Stepping into Raoul's restaurant was a magnificent experience welcomed by server Mr Yousef Ragaban who set the ambience for an exquisite dining encounter. It's marvellous when a server knows the menu thoroughly, answers questions on cuisine preparati

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Raoul's Riyadh at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Raoul's Riyadh page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Raoul's Riyadh to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Raoul's Riyadh!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
