Once upon a time Florent was the only thing on the street or anywhere in the vicinity, and it was this awesome hidden gem to take people to after a night of serious clubbing. Now the street is packed with restaurants and is a scene and a half. The loss of the hidden nature of Florent makes it suffer some, but the food (try green apples and brie if you need something light) is still good, and the restaurant remains everyone and anyone friendly.

You can never say you've explored the meat packing district unless you've been to Florent. They have been around for years way before everyone flocked the neighborhood. If you find yourself hungry on a late night do yourself a favor and visit. They are open 24 hours daily. The steak frites and their salads are well prepared and tasty. They also have a good brunch and prix fixe menu. Unpretentious friendly staff.. I loved the vibe. What else can I say? It's a Meat Packing District landmark. I hope things haven't changed must since I last visited.

A diner by day and late night, fancy French restaurant by evening, this place has more personality than any other restaurant in the area. The food is a little pricey, but not too bad. Great omelets and fries during diner hours, great steaks and crabcakes during dinner hours. The only diner you go to that'll ask if you've got a reservation when you bring in a party of 5 on a Friday night. :) And you can't go wrong with the fact that it's open 24 hours!

This place is the best thing the meatpacking district has going for it. This place never pretends to be anything it's not, and as a result everything comes out spot on. One of the best NIcoise salads--because it is fresh and straightforward. Don't forget to read the special's board--you'll find more than anything invovling a blue plate up there.
