"The only bar/restaurant on this list to be a semi-finalist for a James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant, The Cavalier is the British-inspired tavern attached to the Hotel Zetta (which also has a small and less exciting lobby bar next door). Sure, there’s a full food menu, but if you’re looking for a drink and a bite, the bartenders here do a top-notch job with English classics like the Vesper and the Pimm’s Cup, and the bar food is great too. Don’t miss the deviled eggs and the burger, but if you’re looking for something more intimate, don’t overlook sister bar Marianne’s. Just be aware that it’s only open Friday and Saturday nights and reservations are recommended." - Dianne de Guzman
