"Trying to get into Charlie Was A Sinner on a Saturday night is as difficult as hearing the person next to you during Made In America. That's because a) it’s one of the most popular vegan spots in the city, b) the interior looks trendy enough to film one of those group hang scenes in the Sex In The City reboot and c) the cocktails are great. The small dining room has a long bar, velvety booths, and is dimly lit by a wine bottle chandelier. The drinks are made with fresh fruit juice and organic liquor–try one of the cocktails with barrel-aged or sundew tea gin. And small plates, like zucchini sliders with an Old Bay remoulade and caramelized eggplant bao buns, are tasty enough that you’ll think the hassle to get in was worth it. " - candis mclean
