The 38 Essential Restaurants in New York City

"Balthazar, restaurateur Keith McNally’s French brasserie, opened in 1997 and changed the tide in what had been an industrial, art-filled downtown Manhattan. Today, the menu still includes mainstays like raw bar seafood towers, French onion soup, steak frites, and profiteroles. It remains relevant as ever, thanks to McNally’s running Instagram commentary, and his insistence on treating solo diners as VIPs with a glass of Champagne. The people-watching is like few places in New York." - Eater Staff
