The Ned NoMad

"You get dinner at The Nomad for two main reasons: the staff and the chicken. The servers are attentive enough to make this place feel like a fine-dining spot, but they’re also friendly enough to make it work for birthdays or double dates. As for the chicken, it’s whole-roasted and has black truffle and foie gras stuffed under the skin. It’s $98, which is fairly absurd for chicken, but it’s phenomenal, and you can somewhat offset the price if you bring your own wine. Corkage: $35 per bottle, and once you reach five bottles, there’s an added $250 sommelier fee. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"The grand plateau at this plush American restaurant from Daniel Humm and Will Guidara might sound like a classic raw bar presentation, but don’t expect the standard breadth of seafood served raw and on various tiers. Instead, a couple of creative crudo, ceviche, or tartare creations arrive on ice, which might feature scallop, hamachi, oyster, or sea urchin." - Alexandra Ilyashov

"A series of low-lit, gorgeously appointed rooms off a glass-ceilinged atrium, the NoMad Hotel’s signature restaurant is suited for hours and hours of lingering. The star of the menu is the $94 roast chicken for two, a decadent affair laced with foie gras, black truffle, and chanterelles." - Paul Schrodt

"A short walk from the Empire State Building and flanked by landmark buildings, the location of The Ned positions it perfectly in relation to downtown Manhattan and Midtown’s business district. The NoMad neighborhood itself, which has seen tremendous transformation while also retaining its wholesale commerce underpinnings, is also worth discovering. Located in the Johnston building, a limestone-fronted 1908 Beaux-Arts landmark, it draws its character from the architecture of the building it's housed in. Once inside, spaces reveal themselves one after another like nesting Matryoshka dolls, and are served with a heap of Art Deco glam, including jewel-toned upholstery, marble floors, and mahogany wood—and plenty of moody corners to slink into." - John Wogan, Nicole Schnitzler, CNT Editors, Sandra Ramani

"Ned NoMad is a 167-room hotel in NYC that includes dining establishments open to the public, such as Cecconi’s, a modern Italian restaurant, and Little Ned, a Prohibition-era cocktail bar. The club section is part of the Ned’s Club brand, catering to an elite membership." - Tierney Plumb
