Man...the food is amazing! Queso fundido with green chorizo and tomato and corn salad are necessary. Sleeper item on the menu....chicken tacos! So simple but so good. Great date spot.
Snag one of the 4 seats on "the pass" overlooking the kitchen & watch the magic behind the incredible food.
Literally everything was amazing... but if I HAD to choose, my fav bites were the sweetbreads & mussels. But if Marshall is your server, then eat/drink whatever he tells you. He won't steer you wrong!
If you’re here during the day, order the Duck lunch, tender pink breast meat with a candy-crisp skin served with flaky scallion pancakes & white rice. It’s one of our #100best dishes & drinks of 2011. En savoir plus .
You can get one of our fav tasting menus here (five or seven courses) and this re-invented French spot is also one of the year’s best restaurants from Where to Eat 2011! En savoir plus .
It's hard to go wrong with a toothsome pasta filled with truffled mascarpone, in a silky rich butter sauce, but they do it best here. The cappelletti with a sprinkle of prosciutto is the way to go.
Stick with the pastas, especially the spaghetti w tomato and basil & the duck and foie gras ravioli. And don't forget to leave room for the banana bread w chocolate stout ice cream!
It's rare to get such high-quality food for a such an affordable price ($55 for 5-course tasting). Get the bread--it's basted in chicken fat! Go before they get a Michelin star & prices sky rocket!!
The nontraditional omakase (featuring Americanized novelties like spicy salmon, and is punctuated with ultracreamy peanut-butter ice cream) rivals even that of the staunchest of sushi classicists. En savoir plus .
Celebrity spot Upland is worth visiting for their California-inspired Italian dishes like estrella pasta with chicken liver, sherry and sage ($16) and their surprising, Asian-accented plates. En savoir plus .
Creative and surprisingly restrained Jewish-Japanese fusion fare from a chef couple in a sleepy corner of South Williamsburg. Don't miss the challah baked with sake kasu.
Get the fried chicken, biscuits, pork chop, shrimp and grits, & meatloaf- a shredded, $24 square of short rib disguised as brownie. Finish off with banana cream pie or mint chocolate cake. En savoir plus .
This Korean joomak delivers exactly what NYC's nocturnal gastronauts crave most: a new & exciting way to drink & eat at the same time. Order a fiery communal bowl of the late-night-only Korean ramen. En savoir plus .
Wasn't blown away by chicken. But the seafood tower is super creative. Tagliatelle w crab & egg w quinoa and asparagus are exceptional. Finish up w my all-time fave dessert: Milk & Honey.
The food is too "clean" & fussy to satisfy a true craving for Mexican food, but def fits within the ABC brand. Octopus is forgettable, but short rib tacos are solid, and spring pea guacamole is great.
Grub Street off-menu dish: Lavender Duck. "The lavender-roasted duck was one of the most famous dishes before the restaurant changed its menu format. You can still call ahead to request the dish."
Try the crispy, chewy sisig, featuring pork belly and lesser-loved pig parts, punched up with garlic, onion and citrus. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. En savoir plus .
Open to only 12 diners per night, this spot is extremely difficult to get into. Once you snag a reservation, you'll be rewarded with an incredible 20+ course tasting menu. The pastas are all divine.
The soup dumplings are obviously AMAZING, but don't miss out on the chicken scallion noodles, ma po tofu, cumin ribs, and garlic eggplant! The wine list is transcendent... let Miguel show you the way.
