Amazing French pastries, breads and baked goods, great atmosphere and solid lunch/brunch options including this brisket burger w/ crispy fries. Prices aren't low but the experience lives up to them.
Comfy neighborhood cafe by morning, quick lunch spot by afternoon, scene-y hangout at night. Fresh, well-cooked food that's healthier (and tastier) than many surrounding options.
I want to tell you this place is HORRIBLE - just so I can keep it to myself! The bone marrow, wickedly sinful; the duck l'orange, dastardly delightful; the crepes Suzette, heaven. Stay away!
The gin-based cocktails come from the 30+ brands of gin stocked behind the bar. Tasty but uneven East and Southeast Asian bar bites round out the menu.
the chef is known to have brought over 'fried' pizza from Italy and serves it proudly here. More than worth the $38 for app, pizza and dessert per person.
Michelin-starred chef Daniel Boulud's downtown spot serves pork-belly-topped burgers and great sausages (try the blood and pig's head sausage) with an extensive beer list (24 on tap and 63 bottled). Read more.
Get your gang together for the family-style Sunday Nonya Dinners, a multicourse meal for $35 per person.
Apart from the great décor and pleasant service, the mixed drinks are the crowning achievement to this Bowery restaurant spot. Browse the extensive cocktail list and hit up the ‘DIY Bloody Mary Bar’.
Filled with true Mardi Gras character - beads cover the walls and a jukebox plays in the corner. There are limited choices but huge portions. You need to try the jalapeno cornbread and a bloody mary.
