Union Square Cafe
Danny Meyer... need I say more? Union Square Cafe is an experience like non other. From the decor of cherrywood, forest-green wainscoting and a colorful collection of paintings to the incredible food! USC serves mouth- watering staples like ricotta gnocchi and tuna burgers. As well as new dishes that fit effortlessly with the oldies: Pastas like candele tubes sweetened with carrot and spiced with Fresno chilies and pappardelle ribbons slick with a rich sugo of duck and chanterelle.
Need a place to unwind? Not only is there a mahogany main bar downstairs but a cocktail lounge upstairs, where diners can enjoy drinks like a bitter almond Negroni and apricot spritz.
