Favorites probably too expensive and too much effort to get a table.
Really good.
Benjamin Steakhouse(41st) has always been consistently serving great steaks and fun atmosphere; and is an off shoot of Peter Luger. Sparks and the usual cast. Hard to go wrong.
il Buco 47 Bond Quaint and authentic.
Bubby's Hudson St. (Tribeca)
Balthazar 80 Spring St. Reputation speaks for itself.
Really really good.
Avra Estiatorio E 48th St. A known but well kept secret. Must go!

Sparks Steakhouse is trash though. Sparks and Meat Market are both subpar steakhouses in the city. Keens and Benjamin are great, Luger is pretty good but maybe a little bit hype.
I see it here all he time, Bubby's... Look it is pretty good but unless you are in the area for breakfast I 100% don't get they hype. Nice ambience, solid breakfast, but most people in the city visiting aren't staying in Tribeca or West Village... and it is pretty damn expensive for eggs and pancakes.
Anyone mentioning Sparks as a recommended isn't balling too hard in New York.JCA1 said:ATM9000 said:

In his defense, he did hold back his best recommendations because we can't afford them.

Balthazar is a legit recommendation.

My wife is a pancake snob and it is her favorite place outside of Monument Cafe in Georgetown. We've been to both the Tribeca and Highline locations multiple times and it's always been excellent.

Yakitori Totto - put your name in at the door and wait in the bar across the street for a text that your table is ready.
Yakitori Torishin - Michelin started. Use Resy app to book the omikase at chefs counter. Pricey but awesome food and experience.
