nantini rauch: Profiteroles, fish & chips, steak tar tare, great people watching for drinks al fresco
Chris W: Steak au Poivre huge & delicious. Hanger steak smaller, cheaper but equally delicious. Both perfectly cooked. Cash/AMEX only.
Jon Steinback: Named after Jacques Cartier, who, in 1534, tried to sail west to Asia and instead got lost in the inland waters of Newfoundland. He claimed Canada for the king of France, thinking it was Asia.

Jeffrey: Vodka slice or Soho square - Prince St has the right doughy consistency, and step-up options like a vodka slice and square slices topped with spicy sopressata and fresh mozz.
J Crowley: No joke - the Vodka Sauce slice is one of the best I've ever had. Grab a side of Prosciutto balls (with ricotta) and a window seat. People watch and stuff your face like a Creepy McFatso!
jake furst: everything you could want in a New York slice: thin and crunchy crust, sweet and tangy sauce, fresh mozz and the whole thing's so damn hot that it burns the roof of your mouth. YES.

Michael Seymour Blake: Mushroom panini very good. Pesto pasta excellent. Also, try the homemade basil lemonade.
Noah Weiss: One of my favorite hearty salads in Soho is the roast vegetable salad with roast pumpkin, peppers, goat cheese, pine nuts, and arugula.

Adam Hill: Love the corn, huevos con chorizo, and French toast...but the chilaquiles verdes con pollo are best
Concert Ticket Agency: Great place to grab the best Mexican corn on a stick! Before or after a show at nearby Webster Hall or Irving Plaza
Larry Mak: "The internet is really really great" "For corn!" "I’ve got a fast connection so i don’t have to wait" "For corn!" "There's always some new site," "For corn!" "I browse all day and night" "For corn!"

Serena Wu: Fried oysters wrapped in shiso, razor clams ceviche, duck breast & leg. By far the most memorial meal I've had in NYC!
Bravo: Everything here is fabulous, from cocktails to kangaroo (seriously!). -Gail Simmons, Top Chef.
Dens: Pretty great cocktails here. My advice: start with a "bourbon old fashioned" (not on menu, ask for it) and then switch over to their custom version, "The Re-Fashioned".
Rollin Lee: Cute little shop in Soho. You will love this place if you like sweets. My favorite is the Brooklyn.
J Crowley: Get a slice of the Black and White cake To Go. Bring it home as a surprise treat for your wife. It will totally erase all the shit you're in trouble for. Yeah, it's that good.
VH1: As seen on Love & Hip Hop -- What went down: Erica tells Yandy of her shady ways, but Yandy still wants Erica to go get her man. http://on.vh1.com/17Fda6B

Zee Tasdemir: This place is amazing. The waiters are very nice as well. I got the pan roasted duck breast. Soooo good.
