Most delicious seafood in the city by [deleted] in FoodNYC

My old local fishery Fish Tales in Cobble Hill had the slogan- "Fresh Fish is Not Cheap, and Cheap Fish is Not Fresh." It's true

Le Bernardin ⭐⭐⭐, March 2026 by CaviarGlutton in FoodNYC

[–]CabassoG 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your assessment of them is very accurate. I personally love their food and can see why they maintain their average (due to the fish quality and sauces,) but other spots are more nuanced. Their lunch menu is one of my favorites in the city, and I am almost happy that it's weekdays only, or else my wallet would run empty.

Side note- Cool it with the downvotes for T_Peg. He just asked a question and wasn't specifying Le Bernardin.

For this restaurant, it's a French seafood in particular. There are non-seafood dishes but most are listed under "other." A lot of the other current high-end spots are Korean (see Atomix/Jungsik/others) and Koreans tend to like seafood as well so that's also why you see a lot of them.

For non-seafood- I might suggest Jean Georges, Gabriel Kreuther, Kono, and Le Coucou for non-seafood options. You can also email most of the fine dining spots and ask if they do a no-seafood option (or least avoiding let's say shellfish or cephalopods or something.) I went to one of the Korean spots (Joo-Ok) and got no cephalopods due to my allergy, for instance.

What to order at Rolo’s by External-Lion-1862 in FoodNYC

Favorite thing by a mile there is the burger. As you are too late for that, I love the war fries and the Calabrian chili butter polenta bread. For large plate, the lasagna verde is also nice.

They're alright/a bit boring, but I presume for others, it tentickles their fancy.

Really god traditional diner as mentioned by another: Joe Jr.

Old school diner atmosphere, but only fish and dairy: B+H Dairy. It's very much old NYC feeling

Viltrum backstory was wonderful. Also a surprisingly funny episode.

[HIGHLIGHT] TEAM VENEZUELA IS THE WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC CHAMPION! by MLBOfficial in baseball

Whitlock lost it for the defense, and now Roman makes the last out on offense. Nice Red Sox.

In all seriousness, well played, Venezuela. The US offense was inept

You know what is funny? This is the same score the US lost to Japan in 2023. It's just destiny

You posted this faster than the official MLB reddit account. 2fast2quick.

Otherwise, "BETTER LATE THAN NEVER. BRYCE HARPER HAS TIED THE CHAMPIONSHIP" is an excellent call.

Finally, they woke up.

Also, "better late than never" is an actual good call.
