"Most evenings, Note thrums with a pleasing bustle as people drop in for an after-work Negroni and snack at the bar, or something more substantial from the bistro-style menu served in the wedge-shaped dining room. With its short but succinct menu, it includes plenty of crowd-pleasing classics with a twist such as fried potato bread with caramelized onion and anchovy and the must-order beef rib with béarniase for two, followed by a chocolate and coffee cremeux with buckwheat ice cream. The carefully put-together wine list features a cherry-picked roster of natural and low-intervention wines and grower Champagnes from small producers, as well as beers and a tight line-up of 12 classic cocktails, including two non-alcoholic options. Despite being pretty much in the center of the city, it still manages to retain a casual neighborhood feel. It’s also one of the few standout restaurants that opens for dinner on Mondays—worth noting if you are in town for a long weekend." - Aoife O'Riordain
