Restaurants Perfect For Raucous Party Atmosphere

our suggestions

  1. Marlow and Sons
    8.8

    Marlow & Sons

    81 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY

    A funky oyster bar that’s relatively small in size but big on personality. Also, the food is great. Mark this down as an Infatuation favorite.

  2. Fette Sau
    8.7

    Fette Sau

    354 Metropolitan Ave., Brooklyn, NY

    Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new favorite BBQ spot. Situated inside what used to be an old auto body shop, this gutted garage is raging every night of the week.

  3. Raou'ls
    8.4

    Raoul’s

    180 Prince St., SoHo, NY

    Raoul’s is the sh*t. That’s really the only proper way to put it. If you can’t have a good time here, you probably can’t have a good time anywhere. This boisterous French bistro has been a Soho institution since the 70’s.

  4. Spotted Pig
    7.9

    The Spotted Pig

    314 W. 11th St., West Village, NY

    Possibly New York’s most famous “gastro-pub”, The Spotted Pig is ideal for evenings where you’re looking to mix it up, throw a couple down, and see where the night takes you.

  5. Dinosaur_BBQ
    7.9

    Dinosaur Bar-B-Que

    700 W. 125th Street, Harlem, NY

    If you’ve spent any real time in Central New York, you probably have fond memories of Dinosaur BBQ. If not, just ask one of the 200 people you know who went to Syracuse – they’ll tell you all about it. Back in my Ithaca College days, we’d drive up to ‘Cuse for three reasons: the [...]

  6. Barrio Chino
    7.8

    Barrio Chino

    253 Broome St., Lower East Side, NY

    A little expensive and extremely cramped, but Barrio Chino is worth the wait.

  7. La Lucha
    7.8

    La Lucha

    147 Avenue A, East Village, NY

    A different kind of taco than East Village favorites like Mercadito Cantina and Mercadito, this is down and dirty, south of the border style with more flair, wrestling paraphernalia and toys. It’s kind of like eating Mexican street food at Kid Robot.

  8. Quality Meats
    7.8

    Quality Meats

    57 W. 58th Street, Midtown, NY

    Even though it’s in Midtown, this multi-level meat market serves up one of our favorite steaks in town, and it’s not what you might expect from a steakhouse in the area.

  9. Catch
    7.8

    Catch

    21 9th Ave, Meatpacking District, NY

    You already know that we stay away from Meatpacking restaurant-club hybrids. Our idea of a good time does not include rubbing elbows with D-list celebs at Spice Market. Nor does it involve poppin’ bottles at Provocateur. But somehow, we ended up at Catch the other night, the new three story fish-topia opened by the Abe [...]

  10. Los Feliz
    7.6

    Los Feliz

    109 Ludlow St., Lower East Side, NY

    La Esquina for the common folk, where the vibe and the drinks are the stars but with stellar food to boot. This cozy taqueria upstairs opens up into a raucous fiesta downstairs.
