Anything you order will be amazing, and the service is really great, no long waiting for the food. Only bad thing is that the indoor space is small so sometimes there is a wait for a table.
Pros: amazing food, nice atmosphere
Cons: small indoor seeting area

This is my go-to place. Meeting friends, after-dinner coffee, need to catch up on some work, Sunday brunch. Best coffee around. Always consistent. Good food: sandwiches, salads, yogurt, bagels, pastries. I highly recommend.
Pros: Excellent cup of coffee
Cons: Hard to get a seat sometimes

Great place to plan special occasions. Planned a wedding anniversary and service was prompt, the food was great and it was something different to do with close friends and family. I'll recommend all who want to eat family style and do it at an affordable price are in for a treat.
Pros: Something different for a change

What a fantastic evening we had at Kashkaval last week. We were a party of 6 and every dish we ordered to the table was absolutely delicious!
2 of us ordered different fondus, one "kashkaval" and the other the "classic". Both were lovely and the portions are extremely generous.
It's unusual that all 6 of us enjoyed a specific restaurant without reservations.
Go and have a great night out.
Pros: Delicious salads, dips, and ambiance
Cons: Can get a little noisy

What a place! Sipping my mojito and savoring the authentic moroccan dishes while being lulled by the soft flutter of the white drapes on the ceiling, it was easy to forget I just got out of a cab that smelled like my grandmothers feet. This place will take you far from the clamor just outside. Beautifully detailed white mousharabiya wookwork lines all the walls. Gentle fans encorage the sheer curtains dance in the perfecty muted lighting. The staff was very polite and unobtrusive. The manager personaly served us a round of the sweet mint drinks we had been enjoying and ensured our satifaction at every opportunity. The perfectly selected subtle music and the fainty projected silent apparition of the original 1942 movie waving above our heads even furthered the overall aesthetic. Get out of NY but still stay in Soho. I certainly will agan and I think Bogart would too.
Pros: Ambience
Cons: Staff was too attractive (How is that bad?)

When I was visiting NYC yesterday, the salesperson in La Cafetiere (a home decor store in the next block south -- also well worth visiting) suggested that my sister and I check out Three Tarts after we left. I found Three Tarts to be a very pretty little shop and decided to buy a couple of mini bread puddings (just $0.75 each) and two Crunchy Almond Meringue cookies ($0.60 each). When I actually bit into these items later in the day, I was blown away by how fantastic they tasted, as well as the utter perfection of each item's crunchy-chewiness. Wow!
Pros: Excellent products, reasonable prices, lovely presentation, fine customer service
Cons: Wish shop were a little roomier

My husband & I wanted to try something new, so we stopped in A.O.C. Bedford, a place we'd always noticed but never tried. We sat at the bar, since we weren't hungry for a whole dinner, and we ended up staying 3.5 hours! The host/owner was lovely! He was so welcoming, inviting, he made our (delicious!) crepes bar-side, he explained the considerable cheese selection in detail, and he was very generous with the wine. Everything we ate (and it turned into many courses) was delicious, and we agreed that 1. WE MUST GO BACK w/ Friends, and 2. I would write my first review on line ever in Citysearch because our experience was so special.
Pros: Warn, inviting, romantic, excellent food, cozy
Cons: Small restaurant

This is a place that reminds me of my trip to Japan. The food is not sushi, but it is authentic Japanese bar food with some entrees if that's what you're after. There are specials that come and go, some, I wish, were permanently on the menu. This is the one place where I will order chicken wings. I like the small dishes like shisito and edemame. The broiled salted mackerel is another favorite of mine. The food smells like Japan to me and that's what I really like about this place. The staff are very helpful and friendly.
Pros: great small bar to just sit and drink and eat
Cons: only one bathroom
