Chef Telepan transforms his local, sustainable ingredients into some of the best and most elegantly plated food in town. We love the creamy homemade burrata and the piping hot lobster Bolognese! Mmm.
Decorated like a Southeast Asian market this place has the quirk of one too - Here that means food far hotter, sauces more tart and even portions more generous.
Of the three Daniel Boulud restaurants around the corner, this is the best. Try the beautiful ratatouille with a poached egg on top and make sure to save room for dessert (seriously, do it).
Sit at the sidewalk seating, perfect for a summer evening, and sample the broad range of bruschetti and uber-fresh pasta. The linguine with clams here is hard to beat!
This relentlessly yellow hot dog joint hops 24 hours a day and is a symbol of Upper West Side cheap eats. Mustard is pretty much required; the only dilemma is choosing between the onions or the kraut.
An expanded version of the Hell’s Kitchen original, this place is a hell of a lot more comfortable and has a full liquor license. Nosh on gossamer-thin Israeli Druze pitas and succulent lamb kebabs.
Cured fish is the focus here and there’s no better place for a fish-centric brunch. Try the whitefish salad on a bagel or the scrambled eggs with sturgeon.
You won’t find more perfect Pho anywhere else in this hood. The broth is delicately scented with sweet spices and so good, you might end up forgetting about the actual noodles.
Pickles are the bedrock of this fun-loving café that looks like an old-fashioned Jewish deli. They’re servin’ up Southern fare with a Jewish flare! Don’t miss the XL biscuit sandwich and fried Oreos.
