We had a 6 PM reservation and were told we were 18 minutes early and would have to wait outside for a table. We were then told we could sit at the bar, no free drinks were offered. After several discussions, at 6:25 PM they finally "found a solution" to the problem of people taking longer than they expected by... More

My husband and I visited DTM on a trip to NY early this year. We were staying on West 44th and DTM is just a couple of blocks up. We looked up piano bars on Google maps and came up with DTM which we knew nothing about. We had dinner first and didn't arrive until after 10pm at which time... More

I had stumbled across Don't Tell Mama back in 1985 or so. I was in NYC for a weekend with a friend and we somehow met up with the owner or manager of this place. He was quite the character, to put it mildly. Needless to say we had a real blast. I had nearly forgotten about the place until... More
