We love, love, love cozying up with our most clever friends on the brown banquettes of this dreamy, 70s-inspired chophouse, where charming chef Suzanne Tracht puts her spin on pork shank, pot roast, Kansas City steak, and pork chops. Pretty much anything that passes your lips during your meal will knock your fishnets off, from the strong, reverential cocktails to the locally made mozzarella dishes that inspire the menu each Monday night. Tracht’s a la carte side dishes are the stuff of legend (particularly the fries), and she’s all about scavenging for the freshest flavors of the moment, so you never know what could be amping up the offerings. For a fresh start to your Sunday (if you can get out of bed before 2 p.m.), weasel your way into the brunch, which will pep up your palate, no matter how much booze you downed the night before.
