Very popular and hip brunch spot. Located in SoHo so it's a good choice to start off your day before shopping or walking around in that area. Be prepared to wait 1 hour or more for a table, since there's no reservation there, but it's worth the wait! Can be pricey though.

Upscale sushi restaurant in West Village area. Reservations are definitely needed and it is expensive ($150 per person to start), but the sushi is extremely fresh and tastes amazing. Their drink menus are dazzling as well. A seat at the sushi bar is very hard to come by but worth it if you can get it far enough in advance.

Drinks & Nightlife

AWESOME cocktails, friendly bartenders, intimate, speakeasy-type atmosphere. Space is very limited so be ready to walk around for a little bit while an empty table opens up. A bit pricey

Ferry terminal 7min walk from the apartment. Ferry takes you to downtown or midtown Manhattan in a blink, and the views of Manhattan from the boat is stunning on a good day. This is a more scenic and convenient option than the PATH trains, but tickets are more expensive ($6-9 per person per one way trip).
