Kate Furman: Grab a counter seat and hang with Mike, he will treat you well. Try the stuffed cabbage and tomato soup.
Yisroel Solomon: Great breakfast spot! Authentic and tasty. I had the omelet with onions and lox and it was incredible. Big portions at a low cost!
Serious Eats: Eastern European vegetarian lunch counter. Go for breakfast hash browns, egg and cheese sandwiches on challah, and plenty of Old World charm.

Molly T: Get the tomato soup and share a grilled cheese on a cold Winter day. Delicious.
Ben Mackey: A solid option for brunch in East Village. Both the French Toast and Bagel and Lox are great. Comes with Mud drip coffee or tap beer.
Darcey Howard: Go all the way to the back, the very back to find an enclosed garden that feels great in winter or summer. And order the rosemary chicken sandwich. Yes they have more than good coffee here.

Kelli Long-Jatta: Tomato soup and grilled cheese were perfect on a cold night
Anna MO: Best bacon in town, great bakery, tasty food. Shrimp n' grits simply delicious. Comfortable and clean feel. Top 5 for brunch in the city.
Serious Eats: Your table picks from a small selection of tasting menus that everyone participates in. The series of small, creative bites aren't perfect, but succeed more than they stumble. Good for groups.

Deepak Shrivastava: Great vibe with a east side vibe. Great meats and fish - staff super friendly. Solid dinner option if you're in the area.
Dens: If the Cote De Boeuf (ribeye... with bone marrow bernaise sauce served in a bone!) is on the menu get it get it get it cause it's the most delicious thing ever! (good for 3-way split too)
Cover: Make your own Bloody Mary. Enough said. It's tough to choose a favorite, but you can't go wrong with "The Burger." Pay with Cover and skip waiting for the check.
Ranu Rajkarnikar: I love their huevos rancheros for brunch. Good special with coffee and 1 brunch drink. Also, the burger!
Songza Music: On Monday nights, The Sidewalk Cafe hosts NYC's most prestigious Open Mic Night where folks like Jeff Buckley and Beck got their start.
Jennifer Levine: Go to their next wizard rock concert or any concert where someone who you've never heard if is playing. Make sure to go during happy hour.
