Eleven Madison Park
11 Madison Ave., Gramercy, NYFancy though it may be, Eleven Madison Park is surprisingly lively, and the room wide open and airy – definitely not typical of a place serving this kind of food. But make no mistake, this is fine dining at its most serious.

Gramercy Tavern
42 E. 20th St, Flatiron, NYThe experience of a once-in-a-lifetime show and an epic meal can be equally enjoyable. Both can be an incredible party; one in Jordan’s and a T-Shirt, the other tucked in with black shoes on. Although they induce different emotions, both can be incredibly satisfying. In the same week, I hit one of Jay-Z’s Yankee Stadium [...]

A Voce
41 Madison Ave., Gramercy, NYA Voce is definitely Italian fine dining, it will definitely hit you hard in the wallet, and it’s definitely full of suits from the New York Life building next door, but no matter – the food coming out of this kitchen is amazing.

Shake Shack
Madison Square Park, Flatiron, NYI once saw a man at Shake Shack, dressed in a suit and setting a formal table. On the small metal table he placed a white tablecloth, fine silverware, a candle, and some flowers. For a moment, I was overcome with joy at the beautiful event that was about to unfold before me…this man was about to propose to a burger.

2 Lexington Ave., Gramercy, NYAbout 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 [...]

BLT Prime
111 E 22nd St., Gramercy, NYThis is not your grandfather’s steakhouse. The crowd is buzzing with return customers, most of them young, lower Manhattan types wearing jeans and button downs who prefer BLT Prime’s modern take on the steakhouse to the more traditional spots uptown.

Pure Food And Wine
54 Irving Place, Gramercy, NYYou obviously know by now that we’re not vegetarians. At times, this site feels like little more than a lengthy discussion about skirt steak and pork parts. Why then, are we giving so much love to a restaurant serving only raw food? Because while we may not be vegetarians, we are devoted hedonists, and Pure Food and Wine is all about pleasure.

Casa Mono
52 Irving Place, Gramercy, NYMario Batali’s Spanish tapas haven. This is one of those rare places that, if you sample a lot of things, enjoy a bottle of wine or three, and listen to what your waiter suggests, you will have a complete and satisfying dining experience.

Lamazou
370 3rd Ave., Murray Hill, NYWhen news broke last week that Lamazou’s owners Aziz and Nancy (Lamazou) had leased space to open a restaurant, we thought two things: hell yes, and we are stupid. How on earth had we gone so long without posting this review? Years ago when I lived in the neighborhood, I wandered into this nondescript cheese [...]
