"Many of the restaurants listed here are what we’d call indie hits – little places that, even with smaller budgets, are putting out Oscar-worthy food. That’s not The Clocktower. The Clocktower is the year’s blockbuster hit, except it doesn’t suck. The vaguely British restaurant on the second floor of The Edition Hotel overlooking Madison Square Park goes big on the production value, big on the service, and big on the food. It’s not the underdog of the bunch, but we all like a big explosion now and again." - hillary reinsberg
