"We’ve ended up at Bar Goto multiple times while waiting for tables elsewhere on the Lower East Side. And every time we do that, we remember that this Japanese cocktail bar has great cocktails, and satisfyingly sticky miso chicken wings. The next time you need a drink before going elsewhere, come here, order a Bar Goto martini with pickled green tomato, those chicken wings, and okonomiyaki. And then maybe just skip out on your original dinner plan." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
