Our Hot Spots
Morning
Ubani Bistro
Ubani Bistro is a cozy Greenwich Village spot on Bleecker Street where French technique meets Georgian soul — think buttery escargot alongside Adjaruli khachapuri, anchored by an exceptional selection of Georgian wines that most New Yorkers have never tried.
Devoción Coffee
Devoción is a Colombian-born, Brooklyn-roasted specialty coffee experience built on a farm-to-cup model that gets beans from origin to roast in roughly ten days, producing some of the freshest coffee in New York.
Brunch
Robert
Robert is a modern American restaurant perched atop the Museum of Arts and Design at Columbus Circle, where floor-to-ceiling views of Central Park, rotating art installations, and a menu by Chef Armando Cortes make it one of the more visually stunning dining rooms in Midtown.
Bar Room at Beekman
The Bar Room at The Beekman is Tom Colicchio's all-day dining room tucked beneath a breathtaking nine-story Victorian atrium in Lower Manhattan, where jewel-toned furnishings, handcrafted cocktails, and a weekend jazz brunch make it one of the most atmospheric rooms in the city.
Dante
Dante West Village is a cocktail-first Italian bar and restaurant on Hudson Street where world-class Negronis and the all day Bloody Mary's draw a local West Village crowd into one of the most effortlessly stylish rooms in the city.
Lunch
L’Industrie Pizza
L'Industrie is a Williamsburg slice shop where Tuscan-born chef Massimo Laveglia's three-day fermented dough, Italian-imported toppings, and signature burrata slice have made it one of the most talked-about pizzerias in New York — lines and all.
Bad Roman
Bad Roman is Quality Branded's maximalist Italian restaurant on the third floor of Columbus Circle, where a neon-lit, animal-statue-filled dining room, views of Central Park, and a playful menu of unexpected pastas and viral dishes make it as much an experience as a meal.
Layla
Layla is a laid-back cocktail bar and neighborhood hangout on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg where aperitivo-style drinks, Euro-inspired small plates, a big backyard patio, and a reliably good funk and R&B soundtrack make it one of the best reasons to linger in the area.
Katz’s Delicatessen
Pastrami on rye since 1888. Send a salami to your boy in the army.
Dinner
Gallaghers
Gallaghers is a New York institution born as a speakeasy in 1927 and converted into Broadway's first steakhouse after Prohibition — nearly a century later, its iconic street-facing meat locker, wood-paneled dining room, and dry-aged beef on West 52nd Street remain exactly what a New York steakhouse should be.
BKK New York
BKK New York transports Midtown Manhattan to the streets of Bangkok, serving bold, authentic Thai street food in a space that matches the energy of the city it was named after.
One If By Land, Two If By Sea
One if by Land, Two if by Sea is a West Village institution established in 1973 — housed in Aaron Burr's former carriage house on Barrow Street — where candlelit dining rooms, a fireplace, and a refined American tasting menu have made it the most reliably romantic restaurant in New York City.
Nightcap
Bar Pendry
Bar Pendry is a sophisticated hotel cocktail bar inside Pendry Manhattan West that trades on a classic, timeless aesthetic — handcrafted drinks, curated wines, and striking interiors designed to make you stay longer than you planned.
Chez Zou
Chez Zou is a lush cocktail lounge in Hudson Yards, where inventive drinks, late-night bites, and a sprawling summer terrace make it one of the more compelling reasons to linger in Midtown West.
Late Night
The Up & Up
The Up & Up is a basement-level speakeasy-style cocktail bar on MacDougal Street in Greenwich Village — occupying the space where the Gaslight Cafe once hosted Bob Dylan — where an inventive, seasonally rotating drink menu and a dark, intimate room make it one of the more quietly essential bars in the neighborhood.
124 Old Rabbit Club
Old Rabbit Club is a dimly lit, punk-tinged speakeasy-style bar on MacDougal Street where rare brews, gritty decor, and a rock-and-roll soundtrack make it the unpolished, unapologetic counterpart to everything else on the block.
Ayah
Ayah is a transportive Moroccan dining experience in SoHo where handcrafted interiors imported from Morocco, slow-cooked tajines and tableside presentations, and an inventive cocktail program come together to make dinner feel more like an event than a meal.
