Massara Flatiron
Newly added this week!
This sequel to Rezdôra from chef Stefano Secchi focuses on the cuisine and culture of Campania, where wood-fired cooking, fresh vegetables and seafood reign supreme. Get the pastas, of course, including the cold one (trust us), but also don’t overlook the pizzette, grilled vegetables, great cocktails, and so much more.
Kokos at Pearl Alley Seaport
Newly added this week!
Pearl Alley is dead, long live Kokos at Pearl Alley. It’s a tropical concept at The Seaport, serving up classics like Painkillers, rum punch, and jerk chicken sliders. Come ready to dance: There’s usually live music and a party. Pro tip? Try to score one of their cabanas if you come with a group.
Afuri Ramen + Dumpling Williamsburg
Newly added this week!
Afuri’s ramen is so loved in Japan for its specialty — yuzu shio ramen that’s light, bright, and so utterly comforting — and once you’ve had it, you’ll understand why. Be sure to round out your meal with some juicy gyoza and a softshell crab bun.
Susukino Ramen Financial District
Newly added this week!
Named after the Hokkaido nightlife district, Susukino is serving up plenty of spicy, brothy noodle bowls alongside imported Japanese sake and beers. On the menu with the classics you’ll also find dishes like pork belly tacos and glossy baked chicken wings, perfect for a quick bite before your night on the town.
Ras Plant Based West Village West Village
Newly added this week!
The Crown Heights vegan gem has expanded to the West Village, and we couldn’t be happier. They’re known for their Ethiopian-style dishes (all of which are, you guessed it, plant based) like seitan tibs, lentils, and mixed veggie sambusas. Order as much as you can and come with friends who are willing to share.
La Compagnie Wine Bar Flatiron Flatiron
Newly added this week!
Because if there’s one thing La Compagnie knows, it’s wine. This Flatiron wine bar comes on the heels of a decade of their SoHo location (plus, their Paris-based foremother) and is offering much of the same chic vibes. Think curated pours and an intricately designed space perfect for lingering.
Turtle Bay Tavern Midtown East
Newly added this week!
Come here for cozy, comforting fare like burgers, fries, salads, wings, and so much more. It’s the kind of spot you should consider adding to your weekly rotation, especially if you happen to be in the neighborhood.
Victoria Restaurant Harlem
Newly added this week!
This all-day restaurant is not your typical hotel restaurant in any way. At least not with chef Melvin Johnson’s Harlem-inspired menu: Think juicy fried chicken and biscuits, and a can’t-miss gumbo yaya. Bring yourself or bring a crew; either way, you can’t go wrong.
Serpentine West Village
Newly added this week!
It’s a sleek West Village cocktail destination with classic drinks alongside bespoke options. Do try the Wally, with arugula, cucumber, lemon, habanero, and mezcal, and order a few small bites while you’re at it, too. The fondue is becoming a particular favorite.
Sunday Dreamin East Village
Newly added this week!
There’s mac and cheese, steak tartare, and crispy calamari all on the menu at Sunday Dreamin. As the name suggests, it’s a great spot to catch brunch, where you can try their house coffee blend and soak up the 2nd Avenue scene.
Continent Brooklyn Williamsburg
What can’t Continent do? Blending African, Caribbean, and Asian-inspired dishes, this spot — which came to Williamsburg’s Hotel Indigo by way of a very beloved Atlanta location — is serving dishes like oxtail fried rice, Scotch bonnet fried chicken, and cocktails in a gorgeous setting.
Bedford Post Tavern Bedford
The same team behind El Quijote, Café Chelsea, and Sunday in Brooklyn are now manning the stoves at this historic inn where you can feast on classic tavern fare, from grilled chicken and onion tart to oysters and skirt steak. P.S. Whatever you do, don’t sleep on the desserts; chef Sam Mason, who founded OddFellows Ice Cream Co., is the executive chef.
For a list of more spots to check out upstate this summer, head here.
Cha Kee New York
If you’ve never had the fiery Chongqing chicken wings or the spicy kung pao pastrami from Mission Chinese Food, this is your chance. (And if you have, you know exactly what we mean.) Don’t sleep on the new Jacky’s Sprite noodles, either, or the classic cabbage salad. Danny Bowien’s trailblazing Chinese restaurant is back to its roots as a limited-time pop-up over in Chinatown and you’ve only got until July 31 to stop by. Don’t delay.
Zooba Nolita
Our favorite Egyptian restaurant in Soho is back and better than ever, with a lengthy menu of comforting Egyptian street fare and homestyle dishes like braised lamb shank and Alexandrian Singari branzino. P.S. They’ve also got a great wine and beer list, too.
Palma Verde New York
When you need a bit of an escape, head to this penthouse cafe where it always feels like the tropics. It goes without saying, but you won’t want to sleep on the drinks.
Gem Wine x Spring Tribeca
If you love Gem Wine, you’ll love this summertime pop-up. In place of the ultra cozy vibes you’ll find at Gem Wine on Forsyth, you’ll be elevated — literally — to new heights on the lush rooftop of Spring Studios in Tribeca. Expect all your favorite low-intervention wines and plenty of seafood and yakitori, too.
Note: Reservations are available for June 18 and beyond.
Veerays Midtown East
The trio behind the East Village’s Veeray da Dhaba — Hemant Mathur, Sonny Solomon, and Binder Saini — are behind this elegant spot that pays tribute to the Roaring Twenties with Indian fare you’ve likely never experienced before. That means a sea bass coconut curry, duck vindaloo, and lamb chops with pear chutney.
Note: Veerays opens next week.
Sushi Saikou Bowery
Head here for an intimate sushi omakase experience in NoHo where you’ll be delighted with 17 courses of exceptional sushi, and do know that kosher and gluten-free options are available, too.
Note: Reservations are available for June 12 and beyond.
Forgione Tribeca
Because this eponymous first restaurant from acclaimed chef Marc Forgione (Peasant, Trattoria One Fifth) always fires on all engines. It’s hard to find other restaurants in the city that consistently match the creativity and deliciousness coming out of the kitchen at this beloved Tribeca spot, now located in a new space not far from its original location.
P.S. Read all about the new Forgione here.
SAGA – The Lounge and Terraces Financial District
If you’re looking to splurge on an exceptional meal with an equally exceptional view, look no further. This outdoor extension of James Kent’s esteemed Saga serves a seasonal pre-fixe menu for $150 per person on the terrace, and offers an intimate lounge experience with drinks and snacks — all with 63rd floor views that are hard to beat.
Nari Midtown
Contemporary Korean cuisine meets culinary tradition at this sleek Midtown spot where you can, and should, stop by for a midday meal that consists of a hearty lunch set with banchan, soup, salad, and your choice or everything from grilled eel and braised seabass to marinated short ribs and spicy pork.
Sushi Masu Upper West Side
Come here for handcrafted Edomae-style sushi, served both a la carte and omakase, from chef Eric Chen. They’ve got two different omakase experiences to choose from, but also a variety of sushi sets and classic hand rolls and nigiri that’ll always keep you more than satisfied.
Sag Harbor Tavern Sag Harbor Waterfront
If you love Brooklyn’s Red Hook Tavern, chances are you’ll love this place from the same chef, Bill Durney. But also, if you happen to love classic American standards in a lovely, warm, cozy setting, with a killer wine list and some truly great cocktails, you’ll also love this place. Bring the crew or bring a date, or simply bring yourself. Dining here is always a good idea. P.S. You’ll definitely want the burger, too.

Bourbon Steak New York New York
It’s the first Big Apple venture of the storied West Coast restaurateur and chef, Michael Mina. Expect showstoppers like luxurious cuts of steak, salt-baked sea bream, and a foie gras trolley, all with a front row seat to Central Park. Pro tip? Don’t skip on the expertly curated wine list.
Cafe Mado Crown Heights
This all-day, French-inflected café from the all-star vets behind Oxalis and Place des Fêtes is truly all-purpose in every sense of the word, whether you’re looking for a quick, delicious bite or some place casual to simply linger.
P.S. Find out everything you need to know about Café Mado here.
Omakase Room by Shin Midtown West
Come here for 14 courses of expertly prepared sushi omakase, served and made by the chef Shin Yamaoka. He was once a collaborator of David Bouley’s and a student of sushi master Tadao Mikami, so you should know you’re in good hands.
About Last Night Brooklyn
It’s a clubstaurant, Brooklyn style. Think Caribbean-inspired bites, cocktails, and a party that goes way past dinner time. Dress ready to impress and ready to dance.
