"Balthazar isn’t the type of place you go to for any old Tuesday afternoon lunch, unless you’re a late night talk show host or something. It’s where you want to spend a few hours in a sceney atmosphere and have multiple courses preceded by a glass of Bordeaux. You’ll sit among shoppers, Gen Z kids wearing camo bucket hats, and tourists from everywhere. It’s an undeniably weird (and entertaining) mix for a French brasserie that opened in 1997. Start with some in-the-shell escargots, move on to the steak frites (or anything with frites), then get another glass of wine for dessert." - Kenny Yang, Bryan Kim, Carina Finn Koeppicus, Willa Moore, Sonal Shah
