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!
Despite shaky service (slow drink order, wrong food brought out), everything was delicious and the atmosphere was terrific. Great sazerac to drink. Wonderful bread. Good pasta dish (fleur de soleil).

Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Have a pint of Guinness and a shot of Paddy's at this church-like watering hole. Also, check out the oyster special on Tuesdays. Read more.

Great food, well made cocktails, friendly staff, and a relaxed vibe make this NoHo hotspot a go-to. While it can get packed on the weekend, beat the crowds and stop by on a Weds or Thurs night. —Joey
A standout cocktail is the Great Jones, a blend of Famous Grouse Scotch, Fee's Black Walnut Bitters and maple syrup served neat. Read more.
