"This handsome, low-key restaurant descended from London’s famed River Cafe, and the menu reflects a mix of Italian and French cuisine — with some Brit sensibilities thrown in. A meal should begin with a plate of panisse (chickpea fritters shaped like french fries) decorated with brittle toasted sage leaves, before progressing to an entree such as pork chop with borlotti beans, Hudson Valley trout with English peas, or hanger steak chargrilled over thyme branches with wax beans, lentils, and basil aioli. The menu changes often and the wine list is one of Soho’s best." - Robert Sietsema, Melissa McCart
