"This rustic, French-leaning restaurant is known (and rightfully so) for its ambience. The subterranean dining room feels cozy and protected, with low lights and a casual table setting fit more for the Left Bank than lower Manhattan. The owners support small farms and source locally when possible; try the marinated goat cheese, steak tartare, or the couscous. This is the perfect spot for an early brunch, drinks and dessert with girlfriends, or small plates after an afternoon of gallery hopping. There are only about 15 tables, so it would be a wise move to skip peak hours." - Carbone Smolan Agency
"Smile To Go has a few locations around the city, and they’re all perfect for when you want to pick up a small sandwich or a cookie with exactly four large chocolate chips on top. They also serve rotisserie chicken and vegetable sides like kale salad and roasted carrots, and the location at the Freehand Hotel has a couple of big tables where you can sit while you eat. So if you live or work in the area, this is a very easy kind-of-healthy option. It can get pricey, but the food is better than the majority of things you buy over a counter." - bryan kim, matt tervooren
