"Is it a cliché to book a table at a restaurant with a postcard-worthy view of the Manhattan skyline for a special occasion? And speaking of booking tables, is it a pain in the ass to get a prime-time reservation at Laser Wolf? The answer is yes to both of those questions, but the grilled Israeli food at this spot at the top of the Hoxton Hotel in Williamsburg lives up to the hype. Get the lamb-and-beef koobideh, and be glad you can have dinner somewhere that doesn't just look out on a parking lot." - bryan kim, kenny yang
