Dirty French
What: Dirty French is the newest outpost of Mario Carbone, Rich Torrisi, and Jeff Zalaznick's growing restaurant empire. The trio offers their first foray into French cuisine at the hip Ludlow Hotel, and matches its energy with a vibrant and decadent atmosphere reminiscent of the bustling restaurants of the '80s. The food is equally rich, and when combined with the see-and-be-seen aura, Dirty French is a winner.
