Olmsted

Top choice in New York City


Chef-owner Greg Baxtrom, alumnus of a string of hot kitchens, cooks such outstanding, seasonally inspired food that even Manhattanites cross the river to eat here. Much of the menu comes from the restaurant's backyard garden – which doubles as a lovely spot for cocktails or dessert. Whether pork belly with dandelion, carrot crepe, or scallops with chanterelles, sensational flavors are almost guaranteed.

Reservations recommended; Mondays are for walk-ins only.
