You can't really pin down what this food is, because they incorporate many cuisines: szechuan, cantonese, hunan and shanghai.The food is beautifully done, and that's just the regular menu. Take a look at the specialty menu, because it's no joke. One of the dishes (Beggar's Chicken) actually requires 24 hours notice, something to order when you're really trying to impress someone.

I have attended many functions in New York and the ones I am most impressed with are catered by Great Performances. I couldn't imagine hiring anyone else regardless of the event.

The food, ambience, service, and prices here are all amazing. I have
used them as a caterer on a few occasions, and each time is better than
the last. The food is unbelievable and they are so easy to work with,
and so reasonably priced. Not only does it taste amazing, it looks
amazing as well! A must try for lunch or catering.
Pros: professional staff, good service,

Wonderful! Perfect! Cozy and incredible food, lovely and.. did I say perfect yet? This place and Daniel are my two favorite restaurants in the city so far. While Daniel is more romantic and date-like.. Bouley is somehow more comfy, and the kind of place you can meet your bf/gf's parents at for the first time (wink!), without feeling overly constrained. Everything I had here was delicious, and because it was my bf's birthday, they brought out an entire table's full of cake and random goodies at the end. Very expensive, but also wonderful! (Random: There are free apples in the lobby for you to take at the end.. I guess if you pick enough of them you can sell them and try to make back some of the money you spent at dinner!).

Thank goodness Second Avenue re-opened on 33rd Street. Besides the addictive pastrami, the chicken-in-a-pot is like grandma's. Jewish penicillin, the best matzoh ball...yummy. and they deliver.

Very, very good smoked salmon linguine! The service is somewhat slow, and noone in the place is actually Italian (we found it out after trying to speak Italian to the servers and the owner - well, turns out they are all from Chile!), but the ambiance is home-like, the food excellent, and the crowd relaxed and loud - which is what I like about low-key Italian restaurants :) We didn't drink much at all (none to one glass per person), but by the end of the dinner we were acting like we did - which is a sign of a good place to meet up :) The subway stop is 2 blocks from this place around the corner - a real plus on a chilly day in early spring :)

Bagels are more expensive but are hearty.
You know a bagel is good when toasting it does it no justice.
Order it fresh, NOT toasted and enjoy the texture of one of the few LEGIT bagel places, left in the city.
If you're feeling aggressive order an everything bagel with a cold cut or any salad.
Pros: Bagels and Spreads
Cons: Price

Vegetarians steer clear... this churrascaria style restaurant is for the carnivore types only. For those who don't understand what churrascaria (a South American barbecue) style is; I'll explain. You don't get a menu, you don't choose a meal. You just bring an appetite and the meat loving side of you and sit down with your plate and a color-coded "coaster." One side is green and the other is red. When you're ready to eat, make sure it's green side up. Shortly thereafter, a fairly steady stream of servers come by with a 2 foot spit that's skewering all types of meat, be it beef, pork, turkey, and so on prepared in all sorts of ways. Your veggies needs are met though; served family style and always refillable. When you or your plate get too full, just flip the coaster to red and you won't be bothered by these wonderful purveyors of meats. Feel free to "go green" when you see something interesting. You will also see them comy by wheeling a conference table to your place setting with things that can't be carried via their swords such as shrimp, lobster, and salmon.
The environment/experience is worth it all on its own, but Churrascaria Plataforma combines a fantastic decor and the food itself is EXCELLENT. It's moderately priced, given the experience and quality - figure $60-$70 per person to include the meal, a round of drinks and a low-mid range bottle of wine.
A must for all Manhattanites.
