Overall: A laid back restaurant where you can have a night out that feels as relaxing as staying in. The perfect place to take your game night to more interesting heights.

Summer is officially over, but don’t fret, the fun doesn’t have to end. Bring good times indoors with our friends at Clinton Hall. Since their official launch in 2013, we’ve visited several of their locations and we’ve never had a bad time. The family-friendly bar and restaurant are known for its playful atmosphere, extensive beer list and delicious menu of comfort food favorites. Clinton Hall’s main purpose is to get people together. To further their mission each establishment has communal tables, shareable snacks and a collection of popular board and card games. If you stop by the 36th Street location you may even get the chance to try your luck at Drag Bingo!

Location: 214 East 49th Street, New York, NY 10017

Cuisine: Northeastern Italian

Best Dish: Veal Milanese. A breaded veal chop pounded to a quarter inch thinness served on the bone topped with arugula. Served with lemon to add acidity and marry flavors of the fresh greens and tender veal chop.

Cost: $$$

Overall: A new restaurant with old world charm. Barolo East has opened just six months ago but has already become a neighborhood favorite. The welcoming outdoor patio makes for a wonderful al fresco dining experience. The brick and wood indoor décor makes for a calming dining environment.
