St. Jardim - Review - West Village - New York - The Infatuation
"Starting at 7:30am most days, the dollhouse-sized St. Jardim functions as a cafe, serving lattes, toast, and breakfast sandwiches to a West Village crowd that seems to have few daytime obligations. At 5pm, it transitions to a restaurant and bar, although the mood stays mellow, with pairs catching up over cheese and skin contact wine. You can get a full dinner here, with options that range from cavatelli to wagyu hanger steak, but you can also just drink for an hour or two. The place is as casual as a living room, with magazines to browse and a library of low-intervention wines on the walls, and, though it does get crowded, there are usually a few open seats. If it's warm out, grab a sidewalk table, and enjoy some of the best people-watching in NYC." - Bryan Kim
