Make a special occasion even more special. Do a tasting menu, the chef will also send out special bites in between, plan to spend a leisurely night, and lots of $, but totally worth it.
If you are looking for the best, truly creative pasta dishes, head here to indulge. Service is friendly, and constant, esp at the bar.
If you find yourself in this area, there is no better choice. Fantastic bistro food and vibe.
Go at off hours to get a table, late weekend afternoons, lunch, early dinner. Food is beyond fresh, with flavor to spare. Do have the seasonal toasts. Great choice for vegetarians.
Excellent, fresh, small bites. The space is huge, so good for a large crowd. Great wine list.
One of my favorite eat-at-the-bar spots. You will meet other foodies and enjoy excellent glasses of wine and fine, rustic Italian dishes.
This place is off the beaten path. Good choice if you are at the Javits + can walk the 12 blocks. The restaurant's forager sources amazing foods. All wine and beer organic.
Hearty dishes with ample portions accompany the extensive wine list. Cozy and personal, friendly, welcoming service. Magnum Mondays feature special glasses of wine for $25 a glass, worth every sip.
What I enjoyed were the non-steak items. Tuna Tartare, best I ever had, also Lobster Cobb Salad. Brioche rolls and liver pate come along with your order. Creative cocktails too.
Great brunch. Amazing, authentic Italian dishes. Cold seafood salad is done right. Olives stuffed with veal picatta is to die for. Good for a crowd.
Consistently fabulous. Eat at the bar. Menu repeats itself seasonally, so you can have the same great heirloom salad as you did the year before. Pastas come in half orders, great for light dining.
Meat cravings will be totally satisfied here. Lively crowd. Great beer and wine selection. Masculine portions and style.
Decadent, tasty dishes. Fish with seasonal purees. Great raw dishes and lovely townhouse atmosphere. A sanctuary from busy meatpacking vibe. Backyard perfect late Sunday summer nights.
Beautiful space, with airy design. Cool cocktails (the huntress) and friendly bartenders. Fantastic original choices on the menu: artsy salads, clams with foam, goat, shrimp/saffron. All good!
Restaurant menu/decor changes with season, as does the place's name. Reason to go 4 times a year! Delicious baked goods, cocktails.
Upscale Indian food representing all regions of India. Lighter than usual. Naan and other breads truly amazing. Fantastic choice for vegetarians, good for crowds and special occasions.
Very unique Scandinavian dishes. Raw section: try the foie gras/lobster combo. Steak and side of creamy mashed potatoes. Egg dish. Cool, laid back room with lots of spots to eat at the bar.
I just adore this place, decor-wise and food-wise. Prefer the bar room over the dining room. The mushroom soup is healthy and delicious.
Service with a smile. Everything we ordered was superb: the duck special, cornish hen, OCTOPUS grilled to perfection, and interesting wine list. Art show rotates for different ambiance.
