New York City Restaurants

[Anonymous]

What are your favorite restaurants in NYC? Can you recommend one that a couple could go to for a nice dinner--dressed nicely, but still dressed in jeans? Not super expensive obviously, but a good meal you may not be able to get in DC?

Thanks!

All of the Momofuku ones are great and casual dress is fine.

I like Fig and Olive

Jean Georges, at Columbus Circle. Get the prix fix lunch or dinner. Jeans and a blazer work fine. Many will be dressed better than you, some way worse.

Don Antonio pizza in Midtown is really good. But my favorite place is Pure Thai Cookhouse. It's not dressy but so, so good.

and Milk Bar - the desert takeout spot that is part of the same family.

Fig and Olive is good, but it is a chain; check out Beauty & Essex

I've always loved Otto. Also like Supper, Frank's, and Little Frankie's--all by the same owner in the East Village. Also, not to be confused with the others is Frankie's 457 on the Lower East Side.
