our suggestions

  1. L'Artusi
    9.0

    L’Artusi

    228 W 10th St., West Village, NY 10014

    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.

  2. Fedora

    Fedora

    239 W. 4th St., West Village, NY 10014

    Just so you know, this restaurant is named for it’s previous owner and proprietor, a woman by the name of Fedora Dorado who ran the original establishment for over 50 years before Gabe Stulman took over and revamped it in November. So don’t go thinking it’s an invitation for you to bust out that ridiculous [...]

  3. Empellon Cocina

    Empellon Cocina

    105 1st Ave., East Village, NY 10003

    We are pretty tough on Mexican food in this city. Only two restaurants have a rating of over 8.0 on Immaculate Infatuation, one being La Esquina, which is probably more about the experience than it is the food. To us, putting a couple of fancy tacos on a menu and charging twenty bucks doesn’t make [...]

  4. Barbuto
    8.5

    Barbuto

    775 Washington St., West Village, NY 10014

    A trendy spot, but for a more sedate group…not the hair gel and high heels crowd that you find a few blocks north in the meatpacking district. Simple food, top quality ingredients, a good wine and beer list – all the makings of an Immaculate Infatuation mainstay.

  5. Prima

    Prima

    58 E. 1st St, East Village, NY 10003

    We’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 [...]

  6. Nopa
    8.5

    Nopa

    560 Divisadero St., San Francisco, CA 94117

    If someone held a gun to my head and insisted I vacate NYC immediately, San Francisco would be the destination. It’s the only other city in America I could realistically see myself living pre-retirement, and I know many New Yorkers share the sentiment. There’s a lot to love about SF. In a way, it’s a [...]

  7. Yerba Buena Perry
    8.3

    Yerba Buena Perry

    One Perry St., West Village, NY 10014

    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.

  8. Locanda Verde
    8.3

    Locanda Verde

    377 Greenwich St., Tribeca, NY 10013

    An Infatuation favorite, Locanda Verde is a very good restaurant, and it is so because the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

  9. Salinas, NYC
    8.3

    Salinas

    136 9th Ave., Chelsea, NY 10011

    Chelsea is a challenging neighborhood when it comes to eating. We’re usually only here before an event at Madison Square Garden or because a large group of females we know felt like eating tapas – and this is where large groups of females go to eat tapas. Why on earth are there so many Spanish [...]

  10. Acme
    8.3

    Acme

    9 Great Jones St., NoHo, NY 10012

    From a marketing standpoint, what Acme has been able to accomplish in the few short months since it has re-opened is nothing short of incredible. Some of the more “seasoned” of you might remember Acme from its previous life as a divey, down and dirty Cajun eatery and music venue. Back in the day, Acme [...]
