Best Restaurants in New York City | Eater NY

"The resurrected Cafe Boulud from Daniel Boulud opened this Upper East Side fine-dining location in 2023, maintaining its menu sectioned out into categories such as la saison (rotating seasonal items), la tradition (French dishes), le potager (vegetables), and le voyage (dishes from a different country). Chef Romain Paumier moved here to run the kitchen from Restaurant Daniel, making plates like tarte carotte vadouvan, black sea bass wrapped in crispy potatoes and dressed in red wine sauce; and roasted duck breast with rice polenta. Katalina Diaz, also previously at Daniel, whips up desserts like the mille-feuille. A la carte and tasting menus are both available. There are indoor dine-in services. Best for: Fancy dining occasions." - Emma Orlow
