Jacky C. • June 27, 2013Tasty Moroccan food for $5. Can't beat that, especially in the UWS.

Marie L. • September 12, 2020An UWS classic. Parisian-inspired bistro that consistently delivers. Always busy with diners of all ages. The tuna burger is what dreams are made of. Love their gelato too.

AFAR Media • July 20, 2015Falling on the low end of the wildly expensive burgers of Manhattan at $26, the draw at the Leopard is made both of the delicious burger and the wonderful experience.

Eater • September 13, 2017Boulud Sud is a rare Southern European spot to remember that the Mediterranean extends to North Africa and the Levant, serves great harira (Moroccan lentil soup) and chicken tagine.

Lisa P. • September 12, 2011best wine bar on UWS.. period.

BuzzFeed • August 19, 2016The Smith is an NYC mini-chain, but this is its best location by far. It’s huge, with tons of outdoor seating and a great view of Lincoln Center.

The Corcoran Group • February 10, 2015The best part about this new outpost...they take reservations! It goes without saying that the chicken parm & meatball parm are must-orders, but don't pass on the warm mozzarella or brussels sprouts.

Barbara B. • May 18, 2019Avocado tartine was delicious

Daniel B. • July 30, 2014Jean-Georges is one of my favorite places in the city. For first timers I recommend the Jean-Georges’ tasting menu, filled with classics including the incredible Egg Caviar.

Way B. • August 19, 2016Prix fixe dinner, spicy tuna, sautéed hake, and Jean Georges warm chocolate cake are my favorites. A very nice bar where you can relax for a drink, and the decor will certainly impress your guests.
