A very low-key and unassuming atmosphere with some perfect ramen. Try the Spicy Miso and the Gyozas…which are all prepared in front of you.
Get the arugula and goat cheese pierogies. They are the best. And the blintzes are legit. Just like my grandmother used to make.
Best sit-down pizza in the East Village (and probably Manhattan). An ambitious eater can down a whole pie, so get a couple different ones for your table.
Lives up to all the hype! Tacos were great go with pals so you can share the tacos. Watermelon Margs were great.
great lunch specials & happy hour after 9:30 with half price drinks & meat, get the harami and garlic noodles! not part of happy hour but worth it = lady m green tea mille crepe cake 🍵🍰
First Bloody Mary in the city that I can actually enjoy (and I love bloodys). The green tea soba noodle dish was the unexpectent hit. Loved the Arctic char ceviche and black sesame creme brûlée also!
Enter through the rustic pawn shop and suddenly reveal a whole secret lounge. Tapas dishes and exquisite cocktails, this is a great place to start the night. Free champagne in the bathroom? Yes!
