La Grenouille

In the 90s, La Grenouille was the place to see and be seen in NYC. Now, it’s a fascinating relic that doubles as low-key time travel. The dining room is wild and wonderful, with exuberant floral displays and entirely too many mirrors in the bathrooms. It’s worth noting that it’s the kind of place where jackets are required, so dress accordingly. Stick to French classics and you’ll have a good meal here. The grand marnier souffle is one of our all-time favorite desserts.
