"Housed in a low-ceilinged, brick-walled space that had been a neighborhood bar for almost 60 years before becoming Burke’s in 2022, this restaurant—run by chef Lynda Molina and her husband Diego Fonseca after they left the New York scene—feels steeped in conviviality and serves comfort-fusion dishes such as a giant crispy chicken sandwich with red cabbage slaw and fennel fronds on a brioche bun and a peach salad with goat cheese and prosciutto." - Valerie Stivers
