First Impressions: Juice Press
The healthy chain's sixteenth location is the first with a salad bar. You may be surprised to learn that you don't need to like "rawmesan dressing" to have a satisfying meal. / 4 comments
First Impressions: Daruma-Ya
The transformation of the "Tokyo-Italian" Greenwich Grill into Daruma-Ya, an izakaya and soba restaurant, is complete. So what's it like? / 2 comments
First Impressions: Urban Outfitters
I liked the new Urban Outfitters on Broadway even though it made me feel old! / 4 comments

You don't have to be on an expense account—or in the mood for steak—to enjoy the revamped restaurant. / 1 comment
First Impressions: Bouley Botanical

First Impressions: Telepan Local
Bill Telepan's new neighborhood restaurant has a casual, après-ski vibe and a fun menu of small plates, heavy on the vegetables. / 2 comments
First Impressions: China Blue
Having done my best to erase my actual first impressions of China Blue, the new Shanghainese restaurant in the Capsouto Frères space, I headed back for dinner this past Saturday night. / 15 comments
First Impressions: The Lotus Room at Tamarind Tribeca

First Impressions: Bisutoro
For his second try with the Tribeca Canvas space, Masaharu Morimoto called in help from folks behind Macao Trading Co. and Los Americanos. Is the second time the charm?
First Impressions: Tablao
The new Spanish restaurant Tablao is among the most designed establishments in the area—from the wall of mirrors to the colored LEDs to the trompe l'oeil bedazzled lizard wallpaper. / 9 comments
First Impressions: Barbalu
Half of the team behind the Seaport favorite Barbarini Alimentari are back, having opened Barbalu in the same space.
First Impressions: Simit + Smith
The new Turkish chain specializes in a bagel-like bread called the simit. Yes, you can get cream cheese. / 3 comments
