"This tiny, speakeasy-style steakhouse hidden in a West Village townhouse is decked out with brown leather banquettes and bottles of top-shelf liquor awash in sexy low lighting. From Chicago’s Hogsalt restaurant group, the prime rib is a thing of bleeding beauty, and at $69 for the trimmer Chicago cut, pricey enough to make even the most generous accounting department tremble. More sensible is the $20 double-decker cheeseburger, minimally adorned with pickles, onions, and American cheese. Reservations before 11 p.m. are hard to snag, but those finance concierges have pull." - Paul Schrodt
