The food is always very fresh. Keep in mind they only accept cash and Amex for payment. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/785114/Pio-Pio-Restaurant
They were very accommodating as our party grew at the last minute and they found a way to squeeze us in to an already packed dining room. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/6791/Mercadito-Cantina
The Hogwarts of beer. The food is excellent bar fare and the staff is extremely attentive... Magical really. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/5256/Perfect-Pint
The portions are huge so this is a great place for fat people and group dining alike. Unfortunately for me I fall into the first category. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/5331/Tonys-DiNapoli
Amazing service coupled with great food make Macao Trading a great place for a special group dinner. Be warned, the portions are small. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/218637/Macao-Trading-Co
The Good: The food is amazing, even the salad was one of the best I've ever had. The Bad: Really, really expensive. The Verdict: Worth every penny. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/652878/Pampano
Japanese take on Korean BBQ - the meat is high quality, everything is fresh. There's a good atmosphere & the booths are cozy and have a private feel. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/6629/Gyu-Kaku
It's a neat spot if you're into wine bars. The bartenders aren't very attentive, nor friendly, but it's a great physical space. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/7000/Jones-Wood-Foundry
A very intimate romantic restaurant. It's the perfect place to eat on a nice spring evening, make sure to sit out in the backyard. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/5077/Caffe-Buon-Gusto
Get the Guacamole. Can be loud and a little pricey, but a fun night out with friends if you don't mind spending a little more than normal. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/5335/Dos-Caminos-Park
Nice outdoor bar, good happy hour for after work. Sit next to the water and see beautiful views of northern nj. Food is average at best. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/6531/Boat-Basin-Cafe
Sexy and fun. While quite expensive Le Souk is worth a visit. The food is quite good, but you're paying for the ambiance. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/1000000/Le-Souk-Harem
I proposed to Jeanette here. Bar Luna is a very intimate restaurant that is perfect for a special romantic date. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/6639/Bar-Luna
If you have the patience to wait around for a drink and table you'll be happy you did. The festive ambiance makes the high price tag worth it. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/265928/Sofrito
Probably my favorite restaurant in the city. Great food, creative drinks, and an amazing dining room make this a place must visit. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/4823/Calle-Ocho
Been there several times, very good Mexican food. Maya has great ambiance for a romantic dinner. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/4533/Maya
Very good thai in UES. As always with thai food my favorite is chicken pad thai. Thankfully they don't go overboard on the thai sauce. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/6673/Luscious-Thai
One of the best slices on the upper east side! http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/580138/John-and-Tonys-Trattoria-Caffe
The big golden statue and the lively atmosphere make this a fun place to visit. Haven't been recently but it's time to go back. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/6113/Tao
