Easy chicken based menu with a tasty vegan chicken option I love. Great for lunch or happy hour / early dinner. In summer there’s a great front patio to sit in. Run by the owners of FUMO.

One of my favorite, lovely and fancy feeling tho unpretentious rooftop spots. Kid friendly and great for an afternoon break if you’re downtown and want an escape from the City noise.
It’s not a beer garden to me at all — just a cool rooftop cafe w good eats and reasonable by the bottle service.

Great French bistro / brunch spot. Highly recommend it go early and enjoy it. Harlem’s loveliest little secret under the train tracks at La Marqueta.

Wonderful spot right by the apartment for a lazy morning coffee and really great breakfast plates. Common Good is my fave go to on the run tho for a longer visit Lucille’s has bigger plates and larger space.
They also stay open for dinner and have live music check online for schedule.

Open late night and I think it’s now back to 24hrs on weekend — a very NYC grown up “cool kids” scene and you never know who you’ll see there. I go for the appetizers and a glass of wine. Great cocktails too. The Mushroom Toast is delicious!

A beautiful intimate music venue a few short blocks from Columbus Circle — always top performers great for an evening out / date. There’s usually a ticketed price and $25pp spend at tables. Worth it tho for a classic jazzy night is Broadway singers performing there.
