Creative fare frm Chef Brady of NYC's Bouley & David Burke kitchens. Only complaint: tight booths indoors. Be sure to request 4 tbl in advance or head out to posh Patio- w/ H2Ofalls & NE coastal fare
Seafood is fresh & ok vs. HEFTY bill. Yet, worth it for spectacular views of Rockefeller Ctr ice-skating rink in winter months. Get a seat near the window for great Christmas tree & people-watching.
Zen & upscale, this Midtown E Canto dim sum, seafood, & tearoom focuses on "wellness." Get chicken, veggie, Shrimp & baby greens dumplings, Steamed Greens & Kabocha, & Chrysanthemum & E Journey teas.
Japanese fusion speak-easy w/ minimalist living room decor, skylight, & low chairs that squeak on polished, concrete floor in former home of Warhol & Basquiat's.
Price point great 4 creative fare & portions. Star was Foie gras soba but w/ Svc & all else (uni croquette, veggie fondue, assorted sashimi rice "teacup," dbl smoked bacon, & burger), 9.2 fell short.
Fantastic, creative fare similar but a bit heartier than ABC Kitchen's: (Must-have) Crab Toast, Duck Breast, Chocolate Strawberry Brownie, & refreshing "To Pretty!" Reserve & be back in a heartbeat!
Resto is extremely well lit at lunch with its large windows on the corner of hudson and leroy. The lunch sets offer great value vs. the dinner menu. The sashimi set was expertly done and satisfying.
Dark mahogany. Red velvet curtains. Hell, red velvet everything. If youโve ever fantasized about diningย in a castle a la Beauty and the Beast, this upscale spot inside the NoMad Hotel wonโt disappoint ์์ธํ ๋ณด๊ธฐ
Most amazing spot for drinks and food. Beautiful, green setting with great music. Food was a little pricey but worth the cost; this might be the best cacio e pepe I've had in the city!
Late opening with the cocktails and some great music every Friday & Saturday
Refined, creative Japanese in a zen setting. 1 of my top NYC picks: homemade shiso plum sake+ amazing combo of fresh crustaceans: Uni, lobster, abalone, scallop! Divine esp for uni & raw fish lovers!
Best martinis and bar snacks on the UES, not to mention the Bemelman murals play nicely agains the dark space and great jazz trio.
Great jazz music. Come on a Sunday night- it's not as crowded. Also, be warned that they strictly enforce their dress code. No shorts ladies and gents!
Whatever your budget, find a way to make a date night here. Drinks are expensive, but worth it. Stay after 9p for great music that will make you think you stepped back in time. Dress for the occasion.
Exceptionally nice cocktails for an indulgent date night (plus jazz after 9:30). Heads up they charge $25 'cover' to view said jazz.
Skip Nougatine next door & spend the extra $6! 2-dish lunch PF w/ comp 3-taste amuse bouche & 6-pcs of homemade petit 4's: chocolates,macaron,fruit gelรฉe,& nut brittle. Uni & sea bass were my faves.;9
Wonderful live jazz musicians go all night. Pass on the sampler platter for North African-spiced grilled shrimp, sherry-tinted she-crab soup, and dreamy cheese grits. Jackets-required for men. ์์ธํ ๋ณด๊ธฐ
Everything is fabulous - healthy, delicious Asia-inspired lunch, brunch and high tea. Great wi-fi and cappuccino too
Shibui Spa houses a lantern-lit swimming pool and lounge area. It's roofed under a 250-year old wood and bamboo farmhouse that was reconstructed in the Greenwich by Japanese craftsmen. ์์ธํ ๋ณด๊ธฐ
It was really good, but not quite amazing. The seats at the plancha bar aren't actually the best in the house as they don't really cook much food there. Get a caviar, egg & uni spoon. It's worth it.
Caitlin is the beverage director and she is awesome! Highly recommend the live sea urchin, blowfish tails, sage leaves stuffed with chicken liver, and definitely hit up the lobster or rabbit paella.
Great Asia-inspired healthy, fresh food, good vegan too. Great weekend brunch and afternoon high-tea
The King Cole Bar is great for business meetings - elegant, quiet, and historic. In 1934, the Bloody Mary was created here. The St. Regis is part of Starwood Hotels & Resorts, a FORTUNE 500 company.
If you just dined at Asiate, they'll seat you faster! Phenomenal views of the city - ask for the big (best) table in the SE corner of the lounge (seats 8) - the NE most corner has the best seat for 2.
Make a reservation in advance, don't mistakenly sit at the bar, their cocktails are hit or miss, the views are known to be the best in the city. Go for brunch, tea time, or late night drinks.
Get here before 5 pm and you might get a seat by the windows overlooking columbus circle and central park.
One of the most wonderful dining and culinary experiences I've had in Manhattan. I recommend everything, but particularly the tuna tartar & the lobster dumplings. The staff is lovely.
Pricey & slow svc but ambiance is worth it! My fave retreat to grab cocktails, lounge & play pool during Spring or Summer afternoons. โค๏ธ Philippe Starck-designed garden, library & glowing floors.
Go upstairs to the Japanese restaurant and go left through the unmarked door. Quiet, intimate, and great drinks. Loved the Smoke in Your Face whiskey cocktail - it's exactly what it sounds like.
There isn't a bad seat in the house, but if you're feeling fancy, ask for a table in the back room. If there isn't one available, sit at the bar to watch the talented team do their magic.
Super difficult to get in tonight. Ask to be seated in the bar room vs the library. Good cocktails and very good bar food- the cheese toast, the scotch egg and the ricotta is amazing.
A gorgeous speakeasy above an English Pub that serves $20 cocktails to remind you that you're still in NYC.
Check in with the hostess & try not to be a dick if there's a waitlist. Worth the wait, the cocktails are yummy and the back patio is perfect for a hot summer night. You have to order at the bar.
Sexy wallpaper, awesome booths, delicious drinks. My tip is to leave your name early, get dinner and drinks around the area, and then be ready for Raines at a minute's notice when they call!
Well mixed cocktails on and off the menu. Good music and chilled vibes for a spot on a main street. No food served any more.
Great small tapas - a little on the pricey side but must haves: Rock shrimp, croquettas de jamon, and any selection of their jamon Serrano. Great underground spot with high quality cocktails
DAILY Hh:)!! 5-7PM: $8 cocktails. $6 wine, $4 beer. $5 rolls, cocas, dumplings, churros. 1 of the best pan-latin fares & :) hrs in midtown!
The breezy spot boasts some great views. Tap wines produced by their in-house winery are served alongside a curated list of the venue's favorite global wineries. They're also serving beer and spirits. ์์ธํ ๋ณด๊ธฐ
The boutique, eco-friendly 1 Hotels debuted last year in Brooklyn and South Beach, but it's the Central Park location that's perfectly located for Fashion Week goers. ์์ธํ ๋ณด๊ธฐ
Hands down best fine-dining in area! Loved Halibut ceviche, Ricotta Gnocchi alla Bolognese, Fried Oysters w/ Foie Gras Aioli & homemade chocolate w/ sea salt + caramel.
Celebrated my big 4-0 @ this old Hollywood haunt w/ my best LA friends. Come for the drinks, grounds & sunset views but not for the pricey food.
Pricey but an al fresco AYCE buffet HK fave of mine: zen atmosphere, poolside dining next to HK Harbor, & high-quality grilled meats, seafood & salad bar, & dessert station.
My fave here: BBQ baby back ribs- meat so tender, juicy & flavorful they fall off the bone! Also, love that it comes w/ finely chopped & not-too-mayoey coleslaw & thin, straw fries. ;9
Underground speakeasy below the Rag Trader, and the true gem among the two. Live piano music and a long and very elaborate menu of delicious cocktails make it a great option, especially for this area.
New! (Approximately 2months old) great ambience and even better cocktails. Also has a piano bar downstairs but make sure to have reservations for it.
Newly opened (July 2019), this hidden, swanky gem in Cโtown-TriBeCa serves up decent craft cocktails + a M-F 4-7pm HH w/ 1/2-priced beer, wines & wells.
