Anyone who’s been around me over the last few months knows all too well about Alice. The restaurant that is. Ever since I discovered the West Village Italian spot last spring, I’ve been hooked and can’t stop going back or talking about how much I love it so. If you’ve never heard about Alice, let me fill you in: Alice is, hands-down, one of the coo...
Centrally located in The Gallery at Westbury Plaza, a visit to Spuntino Wine Bar & Italian Tapas means there is no need to travel into the city for world class wine and dining. When discussing wine with international sommeliers, they will say wine should be the gravy with one’s meal washing over the food in your mouth, enhancing the food’s flavors....
Benito One is the definition of a New York City old-school Italian restaurant. You’ll often find owner James Bari seated outside this small eight-table restaurant which dates back to 1968.

It’s always a good idea to have a backup plan. For sure if you’re dining without a reservation, but even if you’ve booked a table, an international superstar’s party could suddenly occupy half the space or a more typical visitor’s companion could arrive so inordinately late that it has a butterfly effect on the rest of the evening’s shift and even...

The new eatery at 22 Edgemont Road offers indoor and porch dining while continuing Amore’s tradition of Bronx-style brick oven pizza – and its menus also includes salads, pasta, wraps and paninis, and gelato.
