Whether acquired cold from a panel truck at a rural corner, or hot from a village macelleria, porchetta is Italy's favorite sandwich meat. Though duplicating this fennel-stuffed roast with the copper crackling skin in this country is patently impossible, 'Inoteca has made a noble stab at it.... More>> |

Chef Jason Neroni’s latest adventure is a staid Village bistro with wonderful views of Sixth Avenue and interesting art on the walls (plus a newly opened sidewalk seating area). Despite the eclectic menu, his interest in pork and Spanish food prevails. Baked feta is the best bar snack; striped... More>> |

This small spot is dedicated to the Mumbai street foods based on pao, or pav (pronounced pow), a soft, junky white roll, usually buttered, that's served with many delicious, spicy things.

Bare brick, lots of mirrors, an aura of intimacy, and a well stocked bar: This West Village bistro has the decorative elements in place. The spaghetti, featuring cauliflower, prosciutto, and feta cheese, is a surprise favorite. The hamburger is also good ; moist and pink and nicely charred. The... More>> |

Itzakayas have lately taken the city by storm. These Japanese pubs have added creative dishes to the national canon, and thus expanded our idea of what Japanese food can be. Ariyoshi’s menu is a multiplex document that could take a half-hour to study, but includes every Japanese dish you’ve ever... More>> |

Greenwich Village |

This is one of the original New York coal oven pizza joints; it was opened in 1957 and is still run by the same family. It’s crowded, loud and there’s live jazz (practically in your lap) every night. The pizza crust sports a nice char from the hot oven, and is thickish, salty and pleasantly... More>> |

This vestige of the theater district once known as the Jewish Broadway is also one of the few kosher dairy restaurants remaining in town.

Though the prices are 50 percent higher than surrounding Indian restaurants, the surcharge is well worth it. Among the usual curries, and tentative attempts to evoke regional cooking, is dumphakt, a magnificent round pie filled with nut-fragrant chicken chunks. The tandoori-fired lamb chops also... More>> |

Sit in the rear room, with its mellow yellow walls, skylight, and well spaced tables. The bistro menu features selections from the Mediterranean rimtry mussels Provençale, an appetizer of 20 mussels in a sunny tomato broth that could well serve as a main course. Vegetable couscous,... More>> |

East Village |

The green premises with antique bar and banquettes suggest a bistro, but Belcourt is slightly more. It offers such speculative bistro fare as oil-poached octopus with cardamom-pickled vegetables in an appetizer portion, and an entrée trio of roasted pork belly, sausage, and cheeks. Skip... More>> |

The windows of the subterranean Bennie's face a cityscape mural, as if you needed something to look at besides the excellent Thai fare––multiple rad yums and noodle dishes with flavors sharper and prices lower than you expect.

If you are tired of the same old tapas, head to Boqueria, which is one of the best tapas bars in town. You could go no further than the cheese-and-sausage bar in the window and be perfectly content with a plate of smoky idiazabal cheese, with little heaps and smears of flavorful condiments... More>> |

This new noodle-and-dumpling spot doesn’t dabble in Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles, which comes as something of a relief. You can now get hand-pulled noodles anywhere in Chinatown, but where can you get wok ho fun? This incredibly cheap soup features irregular homemade rice noodles, scads of sliced... More>> |

This is a margarita mill with a difference; via reverent attention on the part of chef David Schuttenberg to the regional cuisines of Mexico.

The newest dumpling shack is also a shade better than most, and their chive-and-pork dumplings (four for around $1) are magnificent: crisp on the bottom and soft on top, dripping with flavorful juices. Other standard classics are rendered with similar aplomb, including sweet-and-sour soup with a... More>> |

Curry-ya takes the most plebian of Japanese dishes and elevates it by gentle tweaking.

Daniel Boulud's most populist restaurant yet is dedicated to homemade sausages and beer. And what sausages!

The room looks a Pinkberry crossed with a submarine.
