Gramercy Tavern
Chef Michael Anthony’s daily-changing menu evolves with the seasons and what’s fresh at the Union Square greenmarket, where he sources ingredients. Dinner in Gramercy Tavern’s main dining room is a splurge with tasting menus at $120, but you can eat many of the same dishes for lunch at a cost of only $58 for five courses. Or sit in the more informal tavern and order a la carte—get the daily soup and sandwich combo or the off-menu burger.
