Perry St.

You may have heard of architect Richard Meier’s West Village glass apartment towers, renowned for their famous residents, sleek design, and views of the Hudson. Now you can eat in one, at celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Perry Street restaurant. With a white and glass interior that mirrors the façade of the building, the atmosphere sets expectations for pared-down, modern cuisine, and the menu delivers. From Asian fusion seafood to French-inspired veal chops to simple, flavor-packed cheeseburgers, there’s a wide, interesting range. And you may eat next to a star.
