  • Broadway EastDescription: Broadway East has established a comfortable and cozy atmosphere for patrons to enjoy its cuisine created with wholesome ingredients. High ceilings, space between tables, a vertical garden and beautiful mahogany walnut fixtures and a recycled redwood dining room all catch the eye in their own regard. But don't let the beauty of the space distract you from the food! Committed to local produce inspired by the seasons from top local farms, our executive chef cooks from the heart with a blend of these ingredients, bold flavors and refined presentation. Broadway East attempts to please all your senses with a killer soundtrack. If you are more in the mood for a late night scene, try B.East.

  • Little GiantDescription: Nestled in a turn-of-the-century tenement house on Manhattan's Lower East Side, Little Giant has become a local favorite for 'belly-filling goodness' for dinner & brunch since opening in 2004. Chef Julie Taras Wallach's ingredient-focused menus feature refined comfort food; upscale riffs on homespun standards.

  • Salt Bar - NEW
    • Cuisine: American
    • Neighborhood: Lower East Side
    • Price: $30 and under
  • Salt Bar - NEWDescription: Salt Bar, an offshoot of Salt in Soho, has endeared itself to the LES's youthful denizens with its cozy atmosphere and playfully eclectic American cuisine. Inside, the rustic tavern aesthetic prevails: large windows, dark wood banquettes, exposed beams, raw brick walls, and a communal table suitable for a medieval feast. Subtle lighting and candles in translucent orange holders cast a flattering glow while antique storage tins and a wine rack provide understated accents. At center is the well-lit, L-shaped bar that does double duty as a handsome libation station and a galley-sized kitchen. Although the menu changes frequently, starters like dates in bacon and baked brie in puff pastry pair well with a glass of wine or a cocktail. Home-cured pickles prove fresh and tangy while the lightly sweet coconut-peanut sauce that's served with tiger shrimp satay demands double dipping.
