"For When You Wanted Bavette’s Gilt Bar debuted the same year as the iPad, and since your first iPad has been gathering dust for a long time, it’s understandable if you’ve similarly forgotten what a great restaurant this is. When Bavette’s is booked (which is always), Gilt Bar is a fantastic substitute. It’s right next door, has the same speakeasy feel, and is owned by the same people—so you’ll even find a lot of the same dishes on the menu (like the tenderloin tartare). The best part is that it’s much easier to get into, and there’s a good chance you can get a table even if you just walk in." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
