Seb Bench: Ask for a table out back - u go thru the kitchen! Then order oysters and pepper steak plus good wines - unbeatable!
Off The Menu: Bar Burger: Brisket burger wrapped in peppercorns, pan seared on the grill, served medium rare and topped with St.Andre cheese as well as watercress, pickles & red onion blended in a house dressing. Read more.
Sol: Of course, the burger. Great bite smothered in the peppercorn sauce. It’s a good burger, in a quirky spot, but not destination-worthy.

Village Voice: Spicy Village tells it like it is with their Spicy Big Tray Chicken: an enormous platter of chicken with mouth numbing Sichuan peppercorns (share it if you want to spare some taste buds).
Anissa: BYOB! Also, be warned: the big tray of chicken will leave your mouth numb from the peppercorns! But it's worth it!
Jeffrey: Why you go: the da pan ji, or “spicy big tray chicken,” a manhole-size skillet loaded with chunks of bone-on bird in a sea of oily red sauce spiked with chiles, star anise, and Sichuan peppercorns.

Mike Dudas: The pepper steak is yum yum good. A touch of cream, a tad bit spicy and matched with lightly salted fries. Yum.
Marinna Dudas: Very romantic date spot. Try the broccoli mousse, steak (peppercorn cream) and saffron shrimp linguine. Yummmm.
Cheapeats Inc: The best crepes I've ever eaten. Close your eyes & you're in Paris.

Gab2y: The chicken in a creamy peppercorn sauce is amazing! I highly recommend.
Chad Horner: Chicken Kali Mirch: a creamy, spicy peppercorn sauce. Also the naan is a great deal; you get way too much
Lindsey Kim: Best neighborhood spot for Indian food in the city! Get the chicken tikka masala, cabbage, daal, cauliflower and potatoes, chicken tandoori, and extra orders of their buttery naan.

Wheeler: The Organic Sirloin Streak with Mixed Greens and Peppercorn Sauce is to die for...absolutely to die for!
Elizabeth Otaola: One of my go to places for a good healthy meal on the UES. On the other side, if you are not looking for healthy, this place has plenty of good options too. Recommend
Gossip Girl: A favorite of Upper East Side society, this café is where Avery Carlyle began her ascent to reign as Queen Bee of Constance Billard. (The Carlyles: Love the One You’re With) Read more.

Jonathan L: This place is incredible. The chef's tasting menu is so well-conceived and a fantastic feature of flavors. There's a brand new cocktail with mango, vinegar, and pink peppercorn that is killer.
Claudia Filth: It’s expensive, but worth it. Grab the theater menu. Those beet + peanut balls are a must. So is their signature dessert. Cocktails are way too expensive, but delicious.
Rewan Parti: This place is Michelin star worthy! Beautiful presentation and delicious food. Go for chefs tasting, order the pathar beef kebab, duck chettinad, sweet pick rib, dal ghost and butter chicken naan.
