Freemans
End of Freeman Alley, Lower East Side, NYIt’s painful going back and reading a lot of the reviews I wrote two and a half years ago, especially this one. Freemans was not only the first review ever written for this website, but my first stab at a restaurant review period. There was nothing Immaculate about my writing skills back then. Although its [...]

Pok Pok Wing
137 Rivington St, Lower East Side, NYBy now, you’ve probably heard us drone on and on about the lack of good wings in this great restaurant city.

Sorella
95 Allen St., Lower East Side, NYA sleek, modern wine bar with excellent food and great taste in music. The downside? It get’s crowded, the layout is strange and it’s pricey. Nonetheless, Sorella is worth a visit.

Blue Ribbon Sushi Izakaya
187 Orchard St., Lower East Side, NYOur admiration for Blue Ribbon is well documented. Despite a fast and furious expansion plan that could have easily doomed the brand, it seems that each new opening from this group brings a positive new angle to the growing empire. They seem to really understand that the most important factor is the food, which is [...]
