"Drinking rose on a beautiful sailboat usually requires you to befriend a guy wearing croakies at a bar in Nantucket. Grand Banks, though, is docked in Tribeca. As a result, getting a seat here on weekends usually requires you to skip lunch and stand alone on a pier on the Hudson. But if you can get out of work a bit early on a Friday afternoon, you might just be able to enjoy the views, oysters, and rose at Grand Banks without a wait." - matt tervooren
