HB Burger
127 W 43rd St., Midtown, NYWith our ingrained feeling of revulsion towards anything Heartland related, you can imagine how shocked we were to find that this burger joint from the restaurant chain is home to a real quality burger.

Jimmy’s No. 43
43 E 7th St., East Village, NYJimmy’s is all about craft beers, both domestic and imported, and it’s apparently a well kept secret that they also serve amazing food. The interesting part is that there is much more to Jimmy’s than just that.

J.G. Melon
1291 Third Avenue, Upper East Side, NYThere was a time when this was the only restaurant anywhere near the Upper East side that we would make a trip for. J.G. Melon’s is one of the better burgers in New York City, and it had it’s 30th anniversary long before Shake Shack and Five Guys started opening up locations around town like [...]

Rusty Knot
425 West St., West Village, NYNot a place for normal dinner time. This is a place for drinking, and a dirty one at that. It just so happens that they serve amazing bar food that will save your life at 1:00am.

Clover Club
210 Smith St., Brooklyn, NYThe East Village isn’t the only place to get an artisan cocktail these days. Brooklyn is rich in classy cocktail hybrids as well.

Spitzer’s Corner
101 Rivington St., Lower East Side, NYOnce you get past the rigorous ID checking policy and the ridiculously wide bench seats that require a gymnastics routine to get in and out of…you are in for a treat. Spitzer’s is home to some of the best bar food in the city.

Social Eatz
232 E. 53rd St., Midtown East, NYAngelo Sosa is kind of a weird guy, so it should come as no surprise that Social Eatz, the new restaurant from the Top Chef (and Friday Fives alumn), is kind of strange as well. The name, the excessive use of a cartoon logo as table centerpiece – it all brings a bit of an [...]

Jones Wood Foundry
401 E 76th Street, Upper East Side, NYWalking into a bar on the Upper East Side (slash Canada) that serves craft beers instead of Miller Lite and plays Blur’s “Coffee & TV” instead of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” is quite refreshing. The UES isn’t exactly the West Village, so when a cool looking gastropub opens in this hood with an intriguing menu, [...]

Blind Tiger
281 Bleecker St., Greenwich Village, NYWe are spoiled in this city…especially when it comes to food, booze, and the general pursuit of things that make us feel good. In a place where pretty much anything you can think of is no further than a cab ride away, it’s easy to become jaded and complain about the few things you can’t [...]

Old Town Bar
45 E. 18th St., Gramercy, NYOver a century of Big Apple history lies within these walls, saturated into their prohibition-era marble bar and stained all over their vintage urinals and toilets. Old Town’s no frills formula has been working for generations. It’s all about the company you keep and beer you drink.
