Pearl Oyster Bar New York

Cozy up to the bar for double-cured-bacon-infused clam chowder, lobster rolls, and every other seafood specialty you’re craving. New England, here we come.

Ramen Setagaya New York

Think you’ve had real ramen? The way-popular Tokyo export serves noodles thick and thin in an amazing fishy-but-not-too-fishy shio broth. Great for solo dining (sit at the bar and watch the kitchen).

Flatbush Farm New York

Barnyard-chic cuisine: food straight from the farm sourced from local purveyors. Enjoy grass-fed beef and cast-iron half chicken in the lofty dining room; move to Bar(n), the adjoining watering hole.

Double Crown New York

Feel kinda weird about celebrating British colonialism (though it does make for a good design element). Dine on Far Eastern plates among carved marble light fixtures and teak furniture. After-dinner drinks should be had at the adjacent bar, Madam Geneva.
