Best Restaurant Dishes Eater NY Editors Ate This Week, November 17, 2025 | Eater NY

"In this economy, happy hour deals aren’t what they used to be. And look, I fully get why oysters are now at least $2 each, but also, I lament the loss of the dollar oyster and the actually affordable cocktail. The dream of cheap happy hour remains alive at Cozy Royale, though, where you can still order a burger (with fries!) and a martini for $10 each. (Another $5 gets you a beer and a shot.) What is this, 2019? Recently, I finally stopped by to try it for myself. The burger tastes like McDonald’s but better, and, having put down two martinis, I left a little misty-eyed, remembering more budget-friendly days. A deal this good obviously isn’t a secret, so to ensure that you can take advantage of it, make a reservation or show up right at opening." - Bettina Makalintal
