food that tastes like it was made by the Emilia-Romagnan granny you never had. Homemade pastas, daily specials and a warm all-Italian waitstaff make this homey candlelit joint a must-try.
This charming, romantic Italian spot is great, and you won't regret choosing any one of the pasta dishes. Just remember it's cash only!
House wines are solid. Go for a carafe! You've had a long day.
It's very small. In the basement next to La Lanterna. They share a menu and have good food and a decent wine list. Good musicians. Inexpensive cover. Get there early for a good seat.
When anyone comes to visit you in NY, take then back to the 50s by coming here for jazz and a martini. Amazing.
Jazz in town 😊
The Village Voice voted this Best Downtown Place to Pee When You Really Have to Go in our Best Of New York Poll!
Need a place to chill after a bloody mary brunch? Check out the axis 4-piece sectional at crate&barrel.
Perfect place to pop into when you need a clean bathroom in a hurry (second floor, back left corner). Nice furniture, too, so try to take a second to browse a little. :-)
great spot for a drink/chat. low lights, cool vibe.
This is my go to study spot. Sunlight, nice bartenders, good coffee, and you can bring over Chinese from next door
Best bartenders in the city!
Great date spot. Dim lighting, relaxed atmosphere, fairly priced vino.
The $18 bottle of wine during happy hour makes this place a must. Unheard of prices in Manhattan. #deal #bethany ;)
LOVE the music here...the atmosphere is great! Low lights and good people! Small, but comfortable... Read more.
Amazing "Iced Cappuccino" :) And don't forget to ask the $2 shot with your beer (the whiskey is gooood).
Great live music on Saturday night!! Had a great time.
Live jazz and low lighting made for a great pizza-eating experience.
FANTASTIC coal oven pizza! One of the best pies I have had in the city! Read more.
One of the best (and most underrated) pizzas in NYC with the best ambiance of all of 'em.
Small underground (literally) candle lit bar with tons of specialty beers. Be sure to check out their bathroom!
Imported Belgian beer bottles. Not American Belgian-style beers, Belgian Belgian-style beers. Cash only, candlelight, cellar. That sums it up.
This $1 pizza holds its own with some of the more famous pizza joints in town. The fact they were open & serving us by candlelight during Sandy makes them that much better than anything else around.
The $1 pizza is actually really good! Really good crust.. Unusual for $1 pizza places
Maybe I'm not the best at math, but $1/slice and $10 for an 8-slice pie is slightly suspicious... Next time I'll ask for 8 slices in a box and see what happens...
The smoked pork belly is TO DIE FOR! Service is superb and the atmosphere is lovely for a night out with friends or a romantic, candle lit evening.
Beside the obvious meaty delights, get a whiskey and the mushroom side. Great compliments to the smokey meats!
Though it’s not quite the same as it was when F. Scott Fitzgerald hung out here (along with contemporaries like Ernest Hemingway), you can soak in the old-timey ambience—assuming you can get a table. Read more.
Really good vibes for dinner. Loud music, dim lighting, tasty cocktails, cool food selection. Watermelon salad really refreshing, good fish tacos
pricey, yet delish cocktails. try the bubbla champagne cocktail; sweet & refreshing!
Try the toasted coconut cake, an exceptionally moist, fat-crumbed white cake. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more.
Lovely for after-work quick dates. Sit in the park during warm months and enjoy the waterfall. Brick oven pizza/restaurant right down the block and Rare restaurant too.
Home to a free summer music festival since 1953, where music “usually heard in the sanctity (some might say imprisonment) of small concert halls” mixes with the elements, as described in 1987. Read more.
Girls happened here. Marnie, Shoshanna, and Ray discussed Jessa's flakiness and Shosh ran into a "vintage" rollerblading classmate.
Definitely try the seared calamari salad - smokey grill marks on the squid and mushrooms pair beautifully with the salad and feta.
the happy hour and a half, with $1 oysters and $7 cocktails, is one of my favorite in new york. (try the oyster shooters!)
Free pudding at the end of your meal!
Great at all hours of the day. Breakfast burrito, cobb salad, afternoon Magic Hat - all excellent!
Students at NYU (a 2011 Most Innovative Company) are drawn to this close-to-campus cafe, known for free Wi-Fi and good eats. Order a cup of the house blend and a chicken pesto sandwich.
Hipsters who actually provide good customer service. I'm impressed.
I had the ceviche, spinach empenadas, sweet plantains and tres leches cake. All were prepared perfectly and flavor just right.

Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
