"This German restaurant in Gramercy is decked out with colorful lights, wreaths, ornaments, and dolls year-round. By the time they add a fresh dusting of cheer in December, it's basically St. Nick’s 7th circle of hell. You’re not necessarily here for the food or the drink—both are mediocre and expensive—but if you like holiday cheer, it should be on your New York bucket list. Given that it's jam-packed with out-of-towners during the festive season though, you should consider just saving Rolf's for Christmas in July." - Willa Moore, Will Hartman, Sonal Shah, Molly Fitzpatrick, Bryan Kim
