It’s not only the best place to catch the ‘vegetables are the new meat’ trend, it’s one of our favorite restaurants of the year. Featured in Where to Eat 2011! Read more.
happy hour from 5-7, $1.50 oysters...get there early if you're going on a friday. it gets crowded fast.
If you're in the mood for something sweet, then rice pudding is the way to go. So many heavenly flavors to choose from. Personal favorites are the original & the rum raisin. Oh, and for a dollar more
sister cart to the one at Prince/Wooster, smaller lines and the same unbelievably good carne asada burritos
Get the fish tacos- segments of breaded & fried mahi mahi are in a griddled, slightly crisp tortilla, w. shredded green cabbage and chopped onion, & finished off w. a slick of pico de gallo and crema.
One of our favorite sandwiches of the year is the slow-cooked lamb sandwich here, made with roasted peppers, cumin-scented yogurt, and a rosemary bun. Featured in Where to Eat 2011! Read more.
This is one of our favorite places for Sunday Dim Sum – the food is always hot and delicious, we love the pork buns and radish cake. Ignore the inevitable language barrier.
If any of Chinatown's best dim sum joints are undiscovered, this one is, though long weekend waits suggest otherwise. Chinatown pros and pro chefs alike consider it best-of-breed. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Manhattan. The special appetizer with shrimp grilled on sugarcane is a meal in itself, and a great price. Very nice staff!
get the basil, fresh moz and roasted pepper scramble. enjoy wi-fi and work-friendliness (plenty of electrical outlets).
While this place is perpetually packed it's definitely something you have to check out at least once in your life. Get the avocado toast, the couscous and get your people watching on!
