The Best Restaurants In The West Village - New York - The Infatuation
"The Dhamaka team is behind Semma, which serves South Indian regional specialties typically made in rural home settings. With colorful designs on its white brick walls, and a woven bamboo ceiling, it's a pleasant place for some of the best food in the city. That is, if you can manage to get a table. Once you do, order the gunpowder dosa and a lobster tail in a turmeric-scented coconut milk sauce. We'd also recommend calling ahead to reserve the whole Dungeness crab. Only a handful are available each night. Reservations are released online two weeks in advance. There aren't any tables saved for walk-ins, but there are 12 seats at the bar, so you can always try your luck there." - bryan kim, will hartman, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
