Diego Zambrano: Porchetta or Short Rib Sandwiches. The grocery is also fantastic. Their focaccia baguette is one of my favorite breads in NYC. Lardo, cheeses, coppa, whipped lard... Everything is delicious!
Josh Beckerman: From the best Porchetta sandwich in the world, the best short rib sandwich in the world, to perfect pastas and salads, this place is truly Magical! I come for lunch often. Meet me! - foodiemagician
Isabel Zapata: The short rib sandwich might be the best meaty sandwich I've had in the city. Vainilla gelato was excellent too.

Paul Chamberlain: Try the Short Rib Sandwich! The beers are pretty awesome too -- so are the bartenders!
Matt Leva: Best beer menu in the city. Today I'm drinking Other Half, Grimm, and Hill Farmstead to name a few....
Time Out New York: Twenty taps dispense craft brews (Barrier, Empire) at this 50-seat beer bar, which is decorated with a white-pine-topped tables, exposed brick and lamps made from growlers. Read more.

Halalfoodcritic: All beef is from creekstone farms. Try the short rib sandwich and housemade burger with tater tots
Paige C: Delicious cocktails and a great menu! Don't miss their tater tots (which are really like balled potato latkes) and their chicken fingers! Good place to meet friends and hang out at night!
MJP: Amazing beer and bourbon selection and even better bartenders. Don't be shy, ask for recommendations and you won't be disappointed. Easily my favorite spot on the upper east side.
Ben Mackey: The short rib sandwich is possibly the best food in the world. Peppery short rib beef, perfect sourdough bun and a tomato fennel relish to relish forever.
Ben Mackey: Hands down the best Aussie cafe in the city. Yes, better than Ruby’s, Finders Lane, Bluestone Lane and Banter.
Hyun Jeong Lee: Avo toast with poached egg is great but little pricey for the food

Peter Yang: Din rules! The chicken biscuit and short rib sandwich are insane.
Stephanie M: I got the beef spare rib sandwich instead of the fried chicken - and it was quite delicious! Meat was very tender.
Wendy Sung: Get the classic chicken biscuit sandwich. Juicy chicken filet nestled between two warm, perfectly baked biscuits and dressed in gravy and slaw. You can literally taste the love
JJ Pang: I recommend sitting in the lounge area, it has a very relaxing feel with feelgood music. The place has calm dim lighting. A great place talk.
Buford Barnes: Established 1920s(?). Antique fixtures(?). Was brothel, speakeasy and gambling parlor across from old police headquarters. The system was so corrupt a tunnel connected the two buildings.
Seoung: This is where they filmed Sex and the city. It called Scout in the show.

Noah Weiss: Dim sum is unreal. Ideal meal is crab and pork soup dumplings, Katz pastrami egg roll, BBQ pork belly, and pan fried spicy pork buns. You'll pay twice the price of Chinatown and it'll be worth it.
Time Out New York: Try the rib eye. The luscious beef gets an overnight bath in soy and an expert sear to tease out its umami richness. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more.
katie 🍔: this place is whiter than the Hamptons.
