"When you get the urge to spend every dime in your posession on raw bar items, head to Principe in Soho. The bi-level spot pairs skylights, chandeliers, and velvet couches with inventive bites of pistachio-accented scallops and prawns with jalapeño sauce. Somewhere between Italian and American, the restaurant also serves a few different pastas and some great olive-crusted branzino. It’s pricey—with mains starting around $47—but you're going to have a memorable meal." - bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja
