2nd Ave Deli
162 E. 33rd St., Murray Hill, NYMy Grandma was not happy when the clock struck midnight and the original 2nd Ave Deli unceremoniously turned into a Chase bank. She’d been a regular on 2nd Ave and 10th street since her NYU days in the 1940′s, and felt tradition deserved more respect than that. She wasn’t the only one channeling nostalgic rage; [...]

Terroir Tribeca
24 Harrison St., Tribeca, NYWe’re not usually crazy about wine bars. There are a few on this site that we can get behind, but generally we stay away. Why? Well first of all, there aren’t many that serve good food, and it’s rare that we’re heading out to drink without some serious eating on the agenda as well. Second, [...]

Earl’s Beer & Cheese
1259 Park Ave, East Harlem, NYEarl’s probably holds the record for smallest restaurant ever reviewed by Immaculate Infatuation. It’s literally the size of a college dorm room and actually has a similar vibe. Remember how much fun boozing in the dorms used to be? I miss listening to Feeder “High” and sitting on the floor playing caps. Damn were we [...]

Saltie
378 Metropolitan Ave., Brooklyn, NYGetting my hands on one of Saltie’s delicious sandwiches was no easy task. It took three failed attempts before I finally took my first bite. Attempt #1: 7:30pm on a Wednesday. I figured the place would be packed – instead it was boarded up. Saltie closes at 6pm daily. That’s pretty annoying, but OK, fine. [...]

Rye
247 S. 1st St., Brooklyn, NYThis old timey New York restaurant thing is starting to get played out, but the food at Rye is pretty great. Go for the meatloaf sandwich.

Van Horn Sandwich Shop
231 Court St., Cobble Hill, NYIt’s a good thing we don’t live in this part of Brooklyn. Right now we are both barely winning our own personal battles of the bulge, but not by much. Having all these awesome restaurants within easy reach would all but guarantee one of us a stint on the Biggest Loser a few years from [...]

Num Pang
21 E. 12th St., Greenwich Village, NYWe are on top of the latest trends here at Immaculate Infatuation. That’s why I am writing about a Banh Mi sandwich shop in 2011. It’s also why I am sitting at my computer wearing my favorite Von Dutch hat. Oh and I just heard this band on Pandora called “management” or something? Pretty sure [...]

Via Quadronno
25 E. 73rd St., Upper East Side, NYWe often get asked about where to eat before a show at Central Park’s Summerstage, and for the most part, Via Quadronno is not the place. Most of you know better than to spend fifteen bucks on a sandwich. Also, the service here sucks, and it’s usually packed to the gills with a mix of [...]

Porchetta
110 E. 7th St., East Village, NYThe hype on Porchetta is unlike anything we’ve ever seen. In our humble opinion, that sandwich is absurdly overrated.
