"Most excellent. Best café east of the Mississippi."

"Big eye tuna on eggplant tempura and strawberry cinnamon ribs, but the whole menu is the work of magicians."

"True destination for top notch smoked nova, lox, or sturgeon. Can't miss on any (hint: nova is less salty). While you're here, might as well grab some latkes."

"Rotating menu."

"Great addition to UWS from WestVil. Musts are pastrami egg rolls, salmon and eggplant bruschetta, pork belly and rice cakes. Hat-tip for the farm to table sourcing."

"Free up your drinking hand since you don't need to look at the menu. Cheeseburger (medium) cottage fries, and a Bloody Mary. This is the most repeatable burger in New York. A proud institution."
