  1. Yerba Buena Perry
    8.7

    Yerba Buena Perry

    One Perry St., West Village, NY

    A combination of everything that’s right about Latin American food, Yerba Buena Perry’s menu reads like an Infatuation wet dream. Pork belly arepas, chorizo, fish tacos, ceviches, short ribs and dry aged steaks. This is one of our favorite spots in town.

  2. Cienfuegos
    8.0

    Cienfuegos

    95 Avenue A, East Village, NY

    At this point, it might appear to some that we get paid off in booze by the dudes behind the East Village matrix of Death & Co, Mayahuel and Cienfuegos. Although that would be pretty awesome, we don’t. We just appreciate a job well done and have hopped all up on this bandwagon. Cienfuegos is [...]

  3. Esperanto
    7.2

    Esperanto

    145 Ave. C, East Village, NY

    A local Infatuation mainstay, Esperanto’s got that little something special that keeps it in heavy rotation despite average food.

  4. Desnuda
    7.0

    Desnuda

    122 E. 7th St., East Village, NY

    Looking for a unique spot to impress on a First/Early In The Game date? If she likes wine and raw fish, Desnuda is your jam. This dark, South American inspired wine and ceviche bar has just eighteen seats, all at the bar.

  5. Super Linda
    6.9

    Super Linda

    109 W. Broadway, Tribeca, NY

    A question that we ask ourselves often – how soon is too soon to review a new restaurant? Well, when it’s one of these new eat-in night club hot spots, we feel it’s fair to judge right away. Super LIN-da may have only been open for a couple weeks, but we’re weighing in early on [...]

  6. Nuela
    5.9

    Nuela

    43 W. 24th St., Chelsea, NY

    It was obvious, even before dining at Nuela, that this wasn’t going to be an Infatuation go-to. These massive, ultra-stylized restaurants aren’t typically our thing, which is precisely why we don’t have a Perfect For “People Who Like Buddakan” tab on the site. Regardless, we read some recent reviews and decided to see for ourselves [...]

  7. Citrus Bar & Grill
    5.0

    Citrus Bar & Grill

    320 Amsterdam Ave, Upper West Side, NY

    Huge, loud and cheesy, Citrus is the perfect representation of everything that’s wrong with restaurants in this area.
