Marea
240 Central Park S, Columbus Circle, NYMarea definitely needs some good Infatuation press…they haven’t gotten much love lately. Makes you wonder if people around these parts have even heard of it. I mean, it’s only been awarded Best New Restaurant in America by the James Beard Foundation. While we haven’t yet logged enough hours on the road to make that kind [...]

Son Of A Gun
8370 W. 3rd St, Los Angeles, CAInfatuation west coast may still be a ways away, but it’s time Son Of A Gun joined it’s older brother, Animal, as the only two LA restaurants with proper Immaculate reviews. We’ve been doing a lot of LA eating lately, and while there are definitely some good spots, many big buzz restaurants like A Frame [...]

Maison Premiere
298 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NYEither we’ve aged into silver haired, 30-something hipsters overnight or Williamsburg is just more on our wavelength lately than Manhattan. As you’re well aware, we love drinking almost as much as eating and right now, there’s no better place to find our two beloved pastimes working together in sweet harmony than The Burg. Marlow & [...]

Upstate Beer & Oyster Bar
95 1st Ave., East Village, NYYou might be wondering how it’s possible to grade a world renowned restaurant like wd~50 on the same scale as we would a tiny oyster and beer bar in the East Village. It’s quite simple, actually. Regardless of the level of sophistication or style of cuisine at any given establishment, it all comes down to [...]

Prima
58 E. 1st St, East Village, NYWe’ve always been fans of The Summit Bar, however we never reviewed it because the food menu is tiny and the door/bouncer/crowd scenario most nights is unbearable. Thankfully, the kings of cocktail decided it was time to add something a little more gastronomic to their resume. We love a pleasant surprise and that’s exactly what [...]

Mary’s Fish Camp
64 Charles St., West Village, NYMary’s is the rare authentic feeling fish house around these parts, and as far as we’re concerned, is one of the best seafood jams in Manhattan.

The John Dory Oyster Bar
1196 Broadway, Flatiron, NYFor the average restaurateur, the first incarnation of The John Dory would have been quite the accomplishment – tons of press coverage, a steady flow of customers…who cares if the reviews were mixed? But that wasn’t exactly what Ken Friedman and April Bloomfield had in mind. These two aren’t just after success; the name of [...]

Socarrat Paella Bar
259 W 19th St., Chelsea, NYNo bigger than a subway car, Socarrat packs the majority of their patrons on bar stools around a communal table. The idea here is that they do paella the way it’s done in Spain, as one big family. In such a small space, keeping the drool inside your mouth while you wait for your food is no easy task.

Luke’s Lobster
93 E. 7th St., East Village, NYPear, Ed, Mary, meet Luke. He’s come to town to show you what’s up. Luke and his lobsters have arrived in New York City, and anyone in town with a lobster roll on the menu is officially on notice.

Pearl Oyster Bar
18 Cornelia St., Greenwich Village, NYLobster rolls are a hot button topic in this town. Bring up the subject of whose is best in a large group and you’re likely to stir up either a passionate discourse or a knife fight, depending on what kind of crowd you run with. We’re healing up nicely, thanks. We certainly have an opinion [...]
