This is the infamous Minetta Tavern. I had been here back in mid 2010s, and it was pretty good. Before I met my partner, I used to come here once every few months to just scarf their Black Label burger. The price for this was just barely over $20. Now in recent times post-pandemic, it’s been a bit more difficult to walk in without reservations. We were able to sit at the bar on a Friday late-afternoon around 4:55 PM without reservations.

Amazing place. The baked alaska and veal tongue were really good. It’s also not too expensive.

Specializes in French style chicken. $100 for a whole chicken. Chicken was soft and juicy with that wild flavor. Pretty expensive for what it is, but it was good. Probably would be OK with Costco chicken over this.

This was pretty good. Definitely would come back here again when craving for duck rillettes and other charcuteries.

The croque monsieur was mediocre at best.

They are super stingy with the cheese, and it stinks the instant you walk in. But otherwise, it’s delicious. You are allotted 2 cheese shavings. One of the guests at my table did not want their second shaving, so I used their second shaving for a total of three shaving. It’s good but not too expensive.

This place is really good. Their steamed eggs are super fluffy, but pretty expensive. It’s crowded but easy to walk in as 1.

Came here for brunch. Got the duck hash, and it was pretty good. Service was slower than a snail crawling across the sidewalk.
