Manhattan
C as in Charlie (Greenwich Village)
Cuisine: FusionChef Eric JaeHo Choi's spot flies under the radar, but with this wildly creative, cultural collision cooking, it deserves to be top of mind.

Lord's (Greenwich Village)

The vibe is straight out of London at this meat-centric restaurant with a nose to tail ethos from Chef Ed Szymanski and Patricia Howard. Come on a cold day for hearty English classics with a touch of creativity (think curried lamb scotch egg).
Shmoné (Greenwich Village)
Cuisine: IsraeliThis small space punches way above its weight with dazzling neo-Levantine cuisine. Many kitchens boast about using fresh ingredients, however Shmoné takes that philosophy to another level, recreating the entire menu daily.
Claud (East Village)
Cuisine: EuropeanOwned by Chase Sinzer, who pours the wine, and Chef Joshua Pinsky, who mans the stoves, Claud is a sleek and stylish place a few steps below street level. A shared plates style informs the menu, and the cooking is ingredient-focused and values substance over style.
Coco Shack (Soho)

Joji (Midtown East)
Cuisine: JapaneseJōji has big expectations (and commensurate pricing) but this omakase spot where tradition reigns never feels stuffy and rises to the challenge. From the selection of fish (largely sourced from the Toyosu Market) to the variety of dishes, a meal here hits all the right notes.
Koloman (Gramercy)
Cuisine: ContemporaryThe Ace Hotel's latest dining outlet, Koloman, has a timeless appeal. It's old world-meets-new on the menu, where Chef Markus Glocker and his team take French and Viennese classics and render them with modern sophistication.
Brooklyn

Westchester
Augustine’s Salumeria (Mamaroneck)
Cuisine: ContemporaryChef and co-owner Marc Taxiera takes full advantage of the proximity to Westchester's top farmers and fish at Augustine's Salumeria, a full-fledged restaurant with a part-time counter proffering charcuterie and cheese. There's plenty on this Italian-leaning locavore menu but the kitchen also offers a handful of nightly specials.
La Cremaillere (Bedford)
Cuisine: FrenchSet within a 1750s farmhouse in the heart of well-heeled Bedford, La Crémaillère is supremely charming. Chef Thomas Frank's kitchen has a clear reverence for ingredients and brings delicious balance to the fore with imagination and razor-sharp execution.
Town House (New Rochelle)
Cuisine: ContemporaryNew Rochelle has upped the game with an enlivened dining scene and Town House is leading the charge. Chef Chris dos Reis delivers on the promise of American brasserie food with starters such as charred squid over a sunchoke-squid-ink puree.
