four different kinds of ovens. the Pizza in Pala, which's a special way of twice-baking it so that the crust comes up with that perfect combination of crispy and chewy. The Napoletana's great too,

If you are a fan of Emily or Emmy Squared (or delicious pizza) then this spot is the best of both worlds! Delicious and creative pizza and food in great West Village space. Loved the Emily square pie
A top 5 NYC burger. Standouts: The Texan with with crispy onion and bacon, and the Greg Norman with wagyu beef. Huge tasty milkshakes. Great draft beers, too.
The chicken parmigiana is very good. The portions are huge and you need to bear this in mind when ordering. The calamari starter was very good too.

THE Arthur Ave staple. Best stuffed artichokes. Great pastas. Everything you'd want out of a homey Italian eatery.

Voted one of the top Mexican restaurants in America by Thrillist May 19. They reco the crispy chix skin & beet chorizo

I felt like I stepped into a Parisian bakery! The almond chocolate cake was really good.
Really impressed with this place. Excellent atmosphere and music (classic rock)! Burger was crazy good and pizza probably the best detroit style Ive had in the city

Wow, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken parm, tiramisu. Amazing, but pricey. Go early because they don’t take reservations.
Uniquely tasty sourdough crust. Must try the affumicata pizza with smoked mozzarella, squash, and pancetta.
Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake! Cheesecake!

The great unification of Italy and Japan. Wonderful drinks, try some fried pizza and fritto misto.
Great and fast service, unlimited cocktails for brunch and delicious food, jerk chicken rotti and coconut pancake are amazing
Everything I have had has been good, but the Margarita is insanely delicious. Sicilian slices are unique and varied.
So thankful for the return of Pastis! The food is great and it’s an iconic atmosphere. Loud and expensive but we know all that already
Unique pizza, mostly to-go. It's baked twice so it's fluffy and crispy! The slice with burrata-prosciutto-figs was AMAZING. The cacio e pepe was delicious (although I did miss the tomato sauce...).
Fantastic beer bar with lots of treasures on tap as well as their can and cellar lists.

Great bottle shop in front and fun bar with 12 thoughtfully chosen taps in back. The owner John is the man. My neighborhood spot to go or to stay.
They serve Sey coffee, Balthazar pastries, and house baked cookies. Need I say more?
Favorite coffee shop in Manhattan for an americano. All profits go to charity. Love the outdoor green space.
The rum-infused cold brew is great! The staff is great! Once they saw that I was going to transfer my coffee into a travel mug so they just filled that instead - even though it’s a good 4oz larger!
New York has no shortage of speakeasies, but Apothéke is among the best. Kale in Comparison was among the top 5 cocktails I've tried in my life.
They open at 8 AM and will serve you. And during the late afternoon, when you go back to retrieve all the lost items you left on the floor, the lighting is excellent.
Outdoor setup has chairs and barrels on the sidewalk. They have $3 flight pours and some good IPAs
Every beer here is great. Cover your eyes, point at a beer on the menu and enjoy your delicious fermented beverage!
The beer is great. The overwhelming amount of Gen-Z-ers overwhelming the bar because they're on TikTok is not great. PRO TIP: Get some fries!
Best spot for a beer on the upper east side. Cask ales & tons of draught selections!
Gotta be the best beer bar on the east side between 14th St. and, like, Connecticut.
