Info]
If you are disgruntled with the number of people at Balthazar, check out Keith McNally's other hot spot, Morandi. His Italian restaurant on the West side will offer you a bit more breathing space and less hassle. If you've never had a full on Italian breakfast, this is a great place to visit.
