It’s the sibling to Odo, the two-Michelin-star restaurant from chef Hiroki Odo. In the East Village, he’s serving up a totally gluten-free, izakaya-inspired, kaiseki-style menu with a particular focus on rice.
Note: Reservations are available for Feb. 2 and beyond.
The revered uptown temple to Italian cured meats has made its way downtown, and we couldn’t be happier. In addition to the vast selection of salumi, there’s also pasta, sandwiches, and plenty of wine. Mangia!
It’s the sibling to Park Slope’s Noodle Lane, serving up hand-pulled noodles in fresh, daily made bone broths that are seriously worthy of your attention. Don’t skip the charcoal-grilled skewers, either.
After dark, Bar Manje takes over the Good Enough to Eat space with a menu of Caribbean and Southern dishes like ackee and saltfish spring rolls, shrimp and grits, and oxtail lasagna from a practiced chef who climbed the industry ladder all the way up from dishwasher.
Just $98 for all you can eat (and drink!?) sushi and Japanese beer? We’ve been there for days already. If you want something a little less, ahem, indulgent, go for the 15-course tasting at their omakase counter.
As you can guess from the name, when you’re here you should focus on the meats. Think pâté, glazed sirloin skewers, lamb chops, and for dessert, knafeh.
Head here for an all-day menu of housemade bread, sandwiches, and an extensive raw bar. They also place a special focus on their coffee, so make sure to grab a cup when you visit.
In the former Soda Club space and from the same team, including former Cadence chef Haley Duren, Long Count boasts a similarly plant-based and elegant sensibility. This is a wine bar that celebrates a good vintage: All wines poured here are at least ten years old, and the menu. And the food is as cozy as they come: Think lacto-fermented fries, chimichurri and gochugaru sweet potato, and hazelnut cake.
Widely considered our fair city’s premier spot to grab Detroit-style (read: square, deep dish, cheesy) pizza, Ace’s is slowly becoming a mini-empire. The vibes are retro and excellent. Oh, and don’t sleep on the wings.
From the brilliant minds behind Sunset Park’s acclaimed Hainan Chicken House, Kelang serves up mainly Malaysian specialties, sprinkled with all the Caribbean and Italian influences you’d expect from a Brooklyn family. Think rendang made with oxtails, curry chicken pot pie, and paratha with red lentil daal and straciatella.
It’s a sprawling, elegant Thai restaurant with a menu to match. Think scallop crudo with tom kha sorbet, roasted duck pineapple curry, and golden taro crisps, plus cocktails accented with pandan and mango foam.
Conservas and cocktails never hurt anybody, especially when they’re done as well as they are at Seirēn. Go with tuna belly in pesto, cockles, and smoked whitefish to start, and then move into pan con tomate and shrimp empanadas.
One of the most beloved food trucks in our city has found a permanent home in Queens and we couldn’t be happier. Makina specializes in Ethiopian and Eritrean cuisine, so expect plenty of sambusas, beef tibs, and perfectly spongy injera.
It’s the evening sister to Café Maud, offering a luxe candlelit experience pulled right from another era. Order the spicy tuna crispy rice, a bowl of fries, and some fried Oreos for dessert. Make sure to bat your eyelashes at the handsome stranger across the bar, too.
So named for the sunny Sydney beach, Bondi Sushi’s empire has become beloved among New Yorkers for their freshly made rolls, nigiri, and impeccable presentation. Don’t sleep on omakase for dinner, either.
Lobster and leek pizza, whipped feta with saffron, and jicama green apple crab cakes? We’re there. Skewr delivers a long menu of American and Levantine dishes in their bright, greenery-filled space in Kips Bay.
It’s rare to find a spot so fully devoted to brunch, but Caviar Cafe serves the typically weekend bound meal every day of the week. Expect soft scrambled eggs on brioche, a bowl of picture-perfect pelmeni dolloped with caviar, and specialty coffees.
Head here for à la carte or Edomae-style sushi omakase, served in an intimate, wood-lined Little Neck space. You’ve got two choices for sets — both of which include appetizers, nigiri, rolls, soup, and dessert.
The team behind two of the city’s most acclaimed Indian restaurants, Junoon and Jazba, is back again with Room 207, a speakeasy-style cocktail bar in the East Village. Don’t skip their reimagined Bee’s Knees cocktail (made with local NYC honey — in fact, you choose the borough) or the parker house rolls and rotating dips of the week.
Named both for the flower and the French term for “lion’s teeth” (take a peek at their logo), Dandelion serves up exemplary craft cocktails and bites in their gilded, intimate space in the West Village. Good to know: It’s from two of the same folks behind Zero Bond and the iconic White Horse Tavern.
If you’ve been a fan of Ha’s Đặc Biệt from their pop-up days to their Ha’s Snack Bar days, Bistrot Ha is your logical next move. The menu blends the sensibilities of all their previous projects, plus some new bistro-style dishes like steak frites. Don’t mind if we do.
Perched above its underground cocktail lounge sister, Cafe Mulberry is an all-day spot with a no-laptops policy and some serious French sensibility. Order the radishes and butter, the croque madame, and a flat white. Merci!
If you can, book a seat at the communal table here, which is shoes-off and an experience in itself. There’s plenty to choose from — think coffee omakase, tea sets in the listening room, craft sool, and bites like perilla jeon and abalone jang bap.
Gin lovers, rejoice — almost every cocktail at Chin Up Bar is made with some varietal of your favorite spirit. Expect to find prickly pear gin from CDMX, Roku Japanese gin, and yuzu Australian gin, to name a few.
It’s a platonic ideal of a wine bar from the outstanding team behind Penny and Claud. There are just 12 seats here, so expect to wait (or stand) as you sip on one of their 88 bottles that cost less than $88. The food menu is lean and mean, too — and the griddled shrimp toast sandwich is a must order.
Walk-ins only. Read more about Stars here.
Our never-been-better era of Indian restaurants continues with Kashi, a Downtown Brooklyn spot with a menu of regional delicacies like chicken dum biryani and achari gobi. Whatever you do, don’t skip the drinks list. We’re partial to the Paan Old Fashioned, with black cherry and bourbon.
It’s the sister to the Nolita spot by the same name, serving up silky hummus, robust shawarma, filling shakshuka, and much more. So, what are you waiting for?
You know the drill. Ilios is an all-day Greek spot serving up classics like saganaki, dolma, and fried anchovies in a sun-filled, wood-accented space that’s sure to charm.
Tea-liquor vending machine? Drunken chicken soup? Sweet potato creme brûlée? This sleek and creative bar and lounge located inside the ever-growing Hue House, serves up a mainly Taiwanese menu in a space inspired by Asian pop music. In other words, it’s fun. A lot of it.
Folk brings excellent cocktails and small Indian-adjacent bites from the same team behind the beloved Lore. Don’t sleep on the Mumbai pot pie with chicken tikka or the milk bread steak sandwich, plus any of the three (!) Negronis on draft.
Cove is the California-influenced masterpiece from chef Flynn McGarry (Gem, Gem Wine) that feels like a dream. Whether you opt for the full eight-course tasting menu or the abbreviated four-course menu, or decide to go à la carte, you won’t be disappointed; the menu is perpetually seasonal and vegetable forward, showcasing produce that McGarry grows himself at a nearby farm in Long Island, and served alongside a wine list that tops 400 bottles.
P.S. Reservations are now open for January. The four-course menu ($125/person) will be available beginning the week of Jan. 5, as will lunch service on Thursdays and Fridays.
Designed to be the sibling to the now-closed Citroen, The Sparrow serves up some of Citroen’s old favorites, as well as having a new focus on raw bar specialties and French classics. The 1920’s-inspired Art Deco design is an added bonus, too.
A stone’s throw across the park from their sibling restaurant of the same name, Spiga serves up Roman classics in an elegant white-tableclothed space. Expect amatriciana, cacio e pepe, and veal Milanese, plus an ice-cold martini or two for that after-work power dinner.
This beloved Brooklyn Flea staple has a permanent home in Fort Greene where the dosas (obviously) should be your focus here, but the egg curry and mutton ghee roast are not to be skipped, either.
It’s a Los Angeles favorite that’s made its way to the East Coast, bringing their signature hi-fi listening experience, custom-built sound system, and plentiful pours of natural wines. The listening bars are all right, indeed.
’Tis the season for a pop-up. Take a break from all the shopping you’re doing at the Macy’s UrbanSpace winter market, which now includes a bar from local brewers, Stout. It’s open-air (but heated), so dress accordingly.
It’s the second location of a Times Square kosher institution that’s been open since 1986. On Ocean Avenue, they’re serving up the same burgers, deli-counter favorites, and shawarma they’ve become known for.
Head here before (or after) watching the Liberty dominate at nearby Barclays Center. Enjoy a fireside personal pizza, burger, or our personal favorite, pickle tempura, plus a classic cocktail.
The Tiger Lily Kitchen team resurfaces at this Chinatown spot that boasts a menu of Asian-influenced dishes, like green garden vermicelli, grilled prawns, and pork belly skewers. Oh, and did you know? The menu is mostly gluten free, too.
