"The bar at this downtown spot offers the best seat in the house. These coveted stools provide the perfect perch to dine on classics like medium-rare New York strip steak doused in chimichurri with a mound of mash potatoes, or a crisp wedge salad topped with blue cheese and a thicket of thinly sliced onion rings. Amaro’s also hosts a rotating menu of draft cocktails like the Season of the Witch, a rum punch spiked with Meletti, ginger liqueur, mulled apple cider, and both chai and bergamot tea. Meals should end with creme brulee or fluffy ricotta doughnuts." - Rachel Pinsky
