"I love the romance and history of this iconic downtown dining room — first opened in 1937 and a former hangout for writers like Eugene O’Neill and e.e. cummings — and their $47 steak frites, served with maître d' butter or sauce Béarnaise, feels elevated by the room, checked floors, museum-like memorabilia, and the McNally era that began in 2008." - Melissa McCart
