Gene's

Italian restaurant · Greenwich Village

@infatuation

"The Greenwich Village institution has a whole dining room where you can drink to-the-brim glasses of red wine and eat veal parm amongst people wearing their finest fur coats on a Tuesday. But if there's a bar seat open when you arrive, you're going to need to snag it, because despite being cramped, it's the most charming perch for a dirty martini and six-to-an-order baked clams. Gene's has been open since 1919, and it's become the favorite restaurant of many New Yorkers—including Sarah Jessica Parker, who may in fact be one of its youngest fans." - willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah, neha talreja
