On a restaurant-lined strip across from Lincoln Center, this always-buzzing bistro serves high-end comfort food with seasonal accents: grilled shrimp with quinoa tabbouleh, burgers with raclette and green peppercorn sauce, and short rib ragù are a few recent selections. There's also a raw bar and myriad drink selections. On warm days, there's open-air seating in front.
