Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near New York

Sarah G. • November 12, 2021We had the Thai disco fries, laab, lobster omelette, crab fried rice, pad Thai, massaman , khao soi, and garlic greens. Everything was great but Khao soi was the favorite, and don’t skip the greens!

Anish P. • October 25, 2023Jerusalem Bagel + Labneh combo is amazing!

Mariada T. • July 28, 2016Almond açai bowl, so good, best in the area

Karin R. • May 9, 2023The vibe is perfect, the 7-Up cans are welcome and the take on the traditional NY slice is solid. Nice. New!

Nia G. • December 1, 2019I almost always stop here when in this area. Super quick and absolutely delicious, house-made pasta. Great portion sizes. I keep getting the pipette ragu because it’s soo good.

Manuel M. • October 14, 2017Absolutely best tea place in the city. Ask for food parings for tea and stay there for a while. Owners and staff are so kind and great to chat with.

Long C. • June 25, 2019Easily the best udon place in the city, and a little larger than its sibling in East Village. Come hungry and get the Niku, the amount of food is a lot larger than you might think.

Liza F. • October 6, 2018Everything we had here was great. Highlights were the full snapper - herbaceous and sweet, and the fiery fried chicken wings. Spicy mango cocktail on the side = magic.

Noah W. • July 2, 2023Faves: hams and zeppoli, fennel & grapefruit, clam toast, tortellini, pasta in pink clam sauce, duck, and “affogato” decomposed dessert. Perfect martini was perfect. Good vibes, almost over the top.

Mike F. • January 21, 2017One of the best bakeries in NYC. The must have is the delicious brownie. The dark chocolate explosion cookies are excellent, & although the chocolate chip cookie is not the best ever it is very good.

Liz K. • June 26, 2020From the atmosphere to the service to the drinks to the soups to the Japanese egg salad sandwich (that’s right!), we loved every second we spent in here. Get the beet cocktail with balsamic!

Lizzy K. • October 7, 2019New Orleans latte is amazing, and they now serve matcha and hojicha lattes too (for tea drinkers like myself)!

Plamena Г. • February 8, 2020Super cute speakeasy! The cocktails are really good and the atmosphere is great. We got the turmeric and tamarind cocktails and they were both delicious! 😋

Christopher S. • December 4, 2018That was a revelation. Long lines, but quick, inexpensive, authentic tacos! Yum. Great for a quick bite before theater. Just have some mints!

Joe C. • February 6, 2023The double chocolate cookies are the best!

Ben K. • May 6, 2017Au Cheval team has made it to NYC and brought their amazing burger with them. Try the shrimp scampi, burger, prime rib, creamed spinach. Then fast for a week after.
