American Restaurant · Chelsea · 102 tips and reviews
David Morar: Food is great, service excellent. The pancakes are fluffy and perfect, the ricotta definitely overpowers the orange, and that's a great thing. Open kitchen, a bit pricey, but par for the area.
The New Yorker: “It makes a strong case for eating locally, supported by the devilled Foragers Farm eggs, the deliciousness of which depends not on paprika or truffle oil or bacon bits but on the eggs themselves.” Read more.
Serious Eats: Specialty market and sit-down restaurant that also sells food on the go. Offerings are uneven, but with some good finds, like the rotisserie chicken salad and house-made pastries.

John Perez: Duck carnitas were Deee-Licous! Guac and chips were good, had a bit of a kick to it. Speaking of kick......Wicked Awesome cocktail was so good. Started subtle and ended with a bit of a punch.
Maya Frommer: I think there is a trash-sorting facility across the street, it's a natural alarm clock (you're out of luck of you want to sleep past 6AM though). Yawning...
@JaumePrimero: The perfect place for dinner and drinks for summer. La Piscine is fantastic; love the interior design of the hotel as well!

Avik Batra: Coat check is free. Like it should be in life
