    9.0

    L’Artusi

    228 W 10th St., West Village, NY

    L’Artusi can officially go on our list of favorite restaurants in this town. A few things stand out as qualifications for such an honor – outstanding and consistent food, great service, good music, and some ancillary entertainment that comes in the form of great people watching.

  3. Allswell
    9.0

    Allswell

    124 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, NY

    Sometimes when we head for Brooklyn to check out a restaurant that the locals are all fired up about, we end up disappointed. You quarantined Brooklynites can have a tendency to over-hype your beloved neighborhood staples – staples that sometimes wouldn’t cut it when put up against the big boys in the West Village or [...]

  4. Flour + Water

    Flour + Water

    2401 Harrison St., San Francisco, CA

    If you recently downloaded our new iPhone app, you should probably fire that baby up. Even though it’s 3,000 miles away, Flour + Water needs to immediately be added to the top of your Hit List. I recently detoured into San Francisco on my way up to a weekend of wine drunk in Napa just [...]

  7. freemans
    8.8

    Freemans

    End of Freeman Alley, Lower East Side, NY

    It’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 [...]

  8. Maialino
    8.7

    Maialino

    2 Lexington Ave., Gramercy, NY

    About a year and a half ago, we wrote up a less than glowing review of Danny Meyer’s then brand new Roman trattoria, Maialino. We had high expectations due to Meyer’s flawless record, but flaws were found, and verdict was levied accordingly. Steinthal actually compared the place to every great band’s worst album. Ouch. But [...]

  9. Momofuku Noodle Bar
    8.6

    Momofuku Noodle Bar

    171 1st Ave., East Village, NY

    Not the cheapest bowl of noodles in New York, and maybe not even the best, but Momofuku Noodle Bar is an indisputable Infatuation favorite. Come for all the other amazing things this place has to offer, like fried chicken, pork buns, and a soft serve machine.

  10. Scarpetta
    8.6

    Scarpetta

    355 W. 14th St., Chelsea, NY

    A fantastic and trendy Italian spot, so far untainted by the Meatpacking District sprawl.
