Where To Eat When You’re Sick Of Being Told To Order 2-3 Small Plates Each - New York - The Infatuation

"The Smile has been around since 2009, and you might sometimes forget that it exists, but it’s great for a lot of different scenarios. Bring your parents. Or stop by when you need a place to grab food with a few coworkers, and you don’t want anyone to say, “Should we just split a bunch of things?” The food in this attractive Nolita basement is Mediterranean, the dishes aren’t insanely expensive, and everyone at your table will wind up eating their own plate of salmon, chicken, or pasta." - Bryan Kim
