Tuesday evenings at Mona’s, when the city’s best saxophonists and trumpeters drop in for late-night jazz jams with the Mona’s Hot Four, the bar’s house band. Things get going around 11 p.m. and don’t stop until after 3 a.m. If you’re just an observer, you’ll feel like you’ve been permitted entrance to a members-only club. (Also noteworthy: If Tuesday crowds bother you — and they are wall-to-wall — try stopping in on Mondays, when there’s a comparably relaxed bluegrass jam.).

This place just took home Best New Cocktail Bar honors at the 2016 Bar Awards in Time Out NY , when it triumphed over a daunting pool of far more seasoned competition this year. Few New York bars have emerged as strongly as this two-year-old Lower East Side cocktail den; even fewer have bypassed the typical growing pains and charged straight to greatness. That’s thanks not only to Goto’s well-honed skills and artful attention to detail but also to the solidification of the bar’s truly singular, hyperpersonal near-selfless level of hospitality. Goto created a joint that’s, deservedly, the new big man on campus.

For years, the bar team at The Wayland has been serving inventive cocktails in an unassuming Avenue C space. Here, happy hour runs Monday to Friday from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m., where options go well beyond cheap beer and wine. Cocktails like a Cucumber Collins with vodka, cucumber, lemon juice, club soda, and simple syrup and versions of a Sazerac and Margarita are available for $7.

Located inside the Pier A Harbor House complex, channels Prohibition-era Cuba, a time when Americans flocked to the island nation for the liquid pick-me-up that U.S. law was denying them. A statue of Cuban lit hero José Martí stands proudly at the rum-flowing bar, where the stools are modeled after those in Ernest Hemingway–frequented joints in balmy Havana, and the expansive menu is loaded with more than 50 cocktails pulling from the 1920s through ’50s. And unsurprisingly, those cocktails are excelente.

If Clockwork’s happy hour special seems too good to be true, you’ve got a little good old fashioned neighborhood competition to thank. Located right around the corner, 169 has been in operation since 1916. And its 11:30am-7:30pm HH is among the best in the city. $3 will get you an “Old Man Can/Bottle” of beer (PBR, Carling Black Label, Schaefer, Genesee Cream, High Life/Miller Lite) and any well shot. Subtly New Orleanian environs (window shutters look like they’re fresh off a Creole cottage; beads are strung here and there; there’s crawfish on the menu) evoke genuine good times.

There has emerged a terrific new upscale burger — a superb synthesis of high and low, a fancy-pants burger with a bar-burger soul. The real style is the cheeseburger the chef griddles to crusty perfection : seven ounces of 30-day-dry-aged custom-blended beef, smothered with caramelized onions and raclette, dressed with tomato aioli, and gently shoved into a well-tailored brioche bun. It’s the only burger we know that owes as much to the Pat LaFrieda meat-aging locker as it does to a trick Capon stole from In-N-Out — that is, swiping the patty with cheap mustard before searing it on the plancha.

The rub on this brisket (served Tuesday nights) is mostly salt and pepper, the staff will tell you, with a small amount of secret seasonings thrown in as well. That results in a flavor, particularly strong in the fatty bits, that demands attention. Cumin? Coriander? No matter: It’s good, especially the fatty brisket (you have the choice to make a mistake and order lean). Ask for an extra portion of the juicy, bright barbecue sauce served on the side.

The restaurant serves slightly Anglicized versions of ramen, curry, teppanyaki, and donburi. Most dishes are priced in the $13 to $18 range. The restaurant has an ambitious 200 seats, and apparently the chain's cult following is as big in NY as elsewhere
Le Turtle where a talented young chef named Greg Proechel serves up slabs of smooth, faintly boozy chicken-liver mousse with great chunks of warm country bread; sturdy helpings of soft, gently braised oxtail dusted with horseradish and bread crumbs; and what is quite possibly the finest example of roast chicken for two in this chicken-crazed town, which he and his cooks brine in a mix of sugar and salt, roast to a kind of Peking-duck crispness, and hoist to the table on a large, gently smoking nest of burnt hay.

Built from scratch in an old storefront space among the cafés and old laundromats along Vanderbilt Avenue. Many of the tropes of the familiar High Brooklyn experience are on display in the dining room and carefully tended garden (yes, there’s a chicken coop in the backyard and a decorative “living wall” indoors, made of potted ferns), but what separates this highly stylized, reasonably priced post-gourmet establishment from other homegrown, seasonally attuned joints crowding the dining landscape these days is the level of skill, detail, and imagina

Even among New York’s murderers’ row of noodle masters, Shigetoshi “Jack” Nakamura stands out. He is considered a ramen god in Japan, where he started his career nearly 20 years ago; develops recipes for the influential Afuri chain; and is revered here by the likes of Dave Chang and Ivan Orkin. His name may be less known outside of hard-core ramen circles, but everyone should know his torigara shoyu, a classic bowl of chicken-and-seafood broth seasoned with Japanese soy sauce. It’s the most compelling bowl in town right now, with a delicacy and balance that fattier, more robust ramen options simply can’t match. The noodles are firm

The cozy restaurant is sparsely decorated, with a curved wooden bar and a brick oven visible . The menu starts strong: the Brussels sprouts, fried and frizzled, are tossed in Worcestershire sauce with diced green apples, chili, and black sesame seeds, and the pig ears, served over winter greens, are crispy and savory. There are 13 pizzas, the Classic, a straightforward combo of pureed New Jersey tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, is simple and delicious; the über-meaty RM3!, with pepperoni, sausage, and prosciutto, is particularly hearty. The white pies are also worth sampling: The Q is a must-order and if you’ve got room, there's also a killer burger and a few dessert options

THIS PLACE IS WINNING ALL ACCOLADES AT THE MOMENT The restaurant puts an added emphasis on breakfast, a meal that’s often overlooked by restaurants in New York. It opens at 8:30 a.m. daily, serving dishes like guacamole-goat-cheese molletes (a sort of Mexican bruschetta typically made with black beans), coconut yogurt with blueberries, and the Mexican sweet breads called conchas and orejas. There’s also an arctic-char tostada that nods to NYC’s Jewish-appetizing tradition with capers, scallions, serrano chili, and farmer cheese.

Everyone loves everything at the new Manhattan offshoot of the much-loved Brooklyn pizza mini-empire. (Except, perhaps, the wait for a table — though good planners can make reservations.) The vibe is casual, the pizzas are as good as you’d expect, and the burger is on almost every table.

The glowing Noho café from the man behind perpetually crowded downtown spots the Dutch and Locanda Verde—is like the current answer to that bustling Sex and the City–era favorite, Balthazar, with booths as buttery as béarnaise and an A-list clientele that includes Anna Wintour and Gwyneth Paltrow. Lush bistro eats are the go-to—think beef tartare with Tabasco aioli and soft-scrambled eggs with chèvre and truffle vinaigrette—punctuated by pâtissier Jennifer Yee’s acclaimed breads and viennoiseries.

No matter the weather, you will always find a Lululemon-clad crowd clamoring for a table outside the Australian café. The resident twenty-somethings are so desperate to eat at the Greenwich Ave locale, that you’ll regularly spot them chowing down al fresco in 40-degree weather under complimentary blankets. Maybe it’s the OG avocado toast with feta and sunflower sprouts? Maybe it’s the warming flat whites or the cooling ice-cream-topped iced lattes? Or maybe it's those friendly Melbournian attitudes radiating from the staff in the beachy dining room?

Inventive riffs on morning fare draw both locals and comfort-seeking travelers—unfortunately even Guy Fieri and the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives crew—to Donnie D’Alessio’s homey Astoria standby. Post up on the turquoise swivel stools or settle into the family-style communal tables to nosh on a whopping 11 jazzed-up varieties of poached-eggs Benedict, from a King Creole with fried tilapia and shrimp to a South by Southwest plate with a corn tamale and pulled pork.

Since launching in late 2008 on Carroll Gardens’ busy Court Street and elbowing its way to the front of the pack, Doug Crowell and Ryan Angulo’s comfort foodery has become an essential. For brunch, sample the short rib hash along with several killer variations on the Bloody Mary, one garnished with antipasti from nearby Caputo’s. If you try to beat the rush, you’ll still have to compete for ear space with the young families and kids of the neighborhood, but the din is worth it MY FAV PLACE IN THE WHOLE CITY
