We love the happy hour here, since it features $5 specialty cocktails, $6 glasses of wine, AND $7 mac and cheese (enough for a meal!). Make sure to come early before the place fills up.
While we're big fans of the dinner menu here, we've been back for brunch and can't say better things about it. The French Toast may be the best we've ever had, and we loved the Smoked Salmon dish.
Consistently delicious - come for lunch (amazing chicken milanese) or for dinner, where you must get the heirloom tomato salad, followed by the gnocchi. Menu changes daily based on what's in season!
If you're watching your waistline, they have a great selection of "Simply Grilled" dishes. If you aren't counting calories, get the unbelievable Chilean Sea Bass and a side of lobster mashed potatoes.
Probably one of our all-time favorite date spots in the city - what better way to break the ice than ping pong and alcohol? Plus, Susan Sarandon owns this joint, which totally ups the coolness factor.
Plan in advance to come here with a big group so you can make a reservation - otherwise, you may be stuck with a very long wait to get up. Great selection of wine and beer!
Try Jean-Georges seasonal menu comprised of local organic ingredients and admire the unique ABC Home furnishings. Make sure to order the spring pea guacamole and chile-herbed black sea bass.
While everyone comes for the Hamburgers and Shakes – you shouldn’t overlook the Flat-Top Dogs! Our favorite is the Frisky Dog.
Great place to stop in during the work week for lunch, especially their soups! Our favorites are the Pumpkin Corn Bisque and the Tomato Bread Soup.
We have a soft spot for this chill (and still chic) joint. Their Jazzy Brunch is fun (try the English Grill) and the tuna over greens is a favorite.
Incredible and authentic Spanish Tapas! Enjoy Sangria and a meal of Cojonudoi, Datiles con Beicon, Salteado de Setas, Gambas al Ajillo and Patatas Bravas.
THE go-to place for all your sporting goods. Book at day trip to a local ski resort for $84, and they arrange your equipment rentals for an extra $30.
Dunk a delicious chocolate chip cookie into the pure, thick and smooth, liquefied chocolate.
Go right when they open to avoid the crowds and get the best selection. Otherwise, you’ll be forced to wait in line outside.
Old school New York power restaurant that still impresses. Come here for the delicious lunch and dinner tasting menus - which change by the season.
The most fresh and healthy salad spot around - salads anywhere else will never compare now that we've been here. The wraps can't be beat either!
From the folks behind Houston Hall, this more intimate beer garden in the beer cellar has great soft pretzels. This place hasn't gotten too hyped up yet, so check it out before the crowds form.
While dinner here is amazing, we also love to come here for brunch. For your not-so-typical breakfast sandwich, get the Fried Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwich with Bourbon and Vanilla. Thank us later.
The classy, romantic ambiance and perfectly plated life changing dishes makes getting a reservation a bit challenging. However, the famous truffle chicken for two is simply a must for NYC diners.
Get there early to take in the heavenly views of Manhattan while sipping on your favorite cocktail. Eventually, the masses will arrive and you’ll be fighting to keep your spot.
Come to the sub shop in the Ace Hotel for breakfast and try General Tso’s Soft Boiled Fried Egg Sandwich. If you want lunch, try General Tso’s Tofu Sub.
If you want a table to enjoy your deliciously and expertly made cocktails, make reservations ahead of time. We love the Beijing Peach and the Dark & Stormy.
One of the best sandwich shops in NYC – definitely treat yourself to a slow roasted pork sandwich and a beer while enjoying their outdoor space.
