Another Mario Batali restaurant, Lupa is a nice casual place with classic Italian dishes and a nice atmosphere. Try one of their pastas, we recommend the Ricotta Gnocchi.
For $26, their signature Black Label Burger better be amazing…and it is. Topped with caramelized onions, it tastes as amazing as it looks. Get it and your stomach will never be happier.
Lobster roll and old bay fries - must haves. Sit by the bar window for some good people watching.
An elegant hole in the wall serving up fresh meals. Only downside is it can lighten your wallet a bit. If you indulge, go for This Morning's Farm Egg.
A block from Washington Square Park, Mario Batali's upscale Italian restaurant is superb. We recommend the pasta tasting menu and the beef cheek ravioli!
The star of the no-frills menu here is the sizable cheeseburger ($12): Made with well-seasoned, griddled patties, the hefty sandwich oozes melted American cheese from beneath a toasted potato bun. Read more.
Graze on dishes like creamy mac ’n’ greens ($14)—a blend of collards, Gouda, New York cheddar & Comté—or rib-sticking dirty rice and shrimp ($11). Close with the shareable spiced chocolate cake ($10). Read more.
Try the Bash Style burger, Chef Josh Capon’s NYC Food & Wine Festival award-winning creation—garnished with caramelized-onion-and-bacon jam, American cheese and shaved pickles. Read more.
Try the Pat La Frieda Black Label burger, known for its 70/30 meat-to-fat ratio -- pleasingly symmetrical to your own 30% muscle, 70% big boned. Read more.
Mario Batali's osteria maybe be his best effort in New York; it's certainly his most relaxed and consistent. The cacio e pepe is world class. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Some of the best food in NYC is coming out of this kitchen. If you want to propose, celebrate, or seal the deal, go here. -Jacqueline Lombard, Top Chef
In a dining world overrun with offal, Québécois heft, and pasta, it's nice to have a meal where a roasted carrot can blow you away. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
