This is one of my favorite places to go for winter food. Very dark and cozy and makes the first cold day of the fall/winter not seem so bad.
We are serving candlelight dinner tonight for the third night in a row. Thanks to our wood-fired brick oven!!!
If you don't get the apple/bacon/french toast/maple syrup eggs benedict, you will regret it.
Lovely Parisian bistro on a quaint corner of the West Village. Happy staff, great food. What's not to love?
Everyone should come here always and never leave. Service is OUTSTANDING and the mayor/owner/manager has the most charm. Bring your friends, drink beer.
Best fried chicken in the Alphabet City. I hear the porkchop is off the chain too.
Revel in sight as German, the mustachioed genius, makes you a piece of art in the form of a latte or any other espresso-based drink.
get the 'taste of maine' and have a taste of everything: shrimp roll, lobster roll, crab roll & empress claws. eat it slowly and let yourself float; otherwise you gonna drown in food
The 3 arepas to get: de pabellon (shreeded beef, sweet plantains, white cheese), la surena (chicken, chorizo, avocado), and la de pernil (roast pork shoulder, jalepenos, fried sweet plantains).
Whatever you order make sure it includes the challah toast- so good! Strong spanish coffee. Cash only.
can't get enough of the avocado panini on sourdough, w/ home fries on the side, and of course, a cup of mud.
Sopressata, fresh mozzarella and red onions with a glass of Malbec. Sugar, butter, lemon crepe for dessert with ice cream on the side. Perfect.
Favorite happy hour in NYC. $5 lychee martini before 10 every day?! Say what?
middle eastern eggs (poached) were splendid. every element I need in a great breakfast: great poach, good bread for yolk soaking, some yummy greens and a good spread option to combine the elements.
A beer garden with a great selection of brews. Bring your friends, get some pretzels and sausage, some beer, and enjoy!
Fooled by the name, many people wrongly believe this is a Cuban restaurant. Astute readers of the menu know that only Mexicans call a sandwich a "torta". Get the signature torta cubana and a cocktail.
Whatever you do, get the baked ricotta. Pizza is great. Mussels good too. We estimated $50k worth of whiskey on wall - whatchoo think?
Excellent, greasy, late-night food. Get a quesadilla de huitlacoche. It sounds and looks dirty, but I promise its delicious. Scarf it down before you ask Google what the hell you just ate.

Want to kill your productivity post lunch with a meat-induced coma? Go for their famous Smoked Meat sandwich with cured brisket, mustard, and rye. It's a worthwhile and cheaper rival to Katz's.
