NY Restaurants!
If the other two are booked, try this one, Trattoria Dell Arte. It's incredible Northern Italian quisine. Fanatstic fish, great wine list, and a cool antipasta bar. I love this restaurant! What I love is that you could walk right by it and miss it if you're not looking for it. The atmosphere is bustling and great for people watching. I have to reconsider my 'all time favorite' and say that this would be the place. Let me know how you like any of these places if you go.
