Hourglass Tavern
Truth be told, you're not coming here for the food. The Mediterranean dishes are fine, but the real draw is the old-fashioned New York theater buzz at Hourglass. An old townhouse, the 1st floor is romantic (brick walls, lacy tablecloths), the 2nd floor a cool divey bar, and the top floor takes the restaurant overflow from below. Delicious wine list, fabulous staff and after 10pm a lot of Broadway hoofers drift over for a drink. Prix fixe meals are a bargain, served late.

Taboon
A white-domed oven grabs the eye as you enter this airy, stone-floored and brick-walled eatery, and if you watch it carefully, you'll see some crisp, sage-rubbed bread taken out and brought to your table as you're seated. The food is a fusion from both sides of the Mediterranean: shrimp in shredded pastry, haloumi salad, lamb kebabs, various grilled fish dishes and lots of variations on hummus. Live flamenco Monday nights.
