The Spotted Pig
The Spotted Pig has hosted big names like Beyoncé, Liv Tyler, Bill Clinton (we know you did it Bill), and Kanye West who was spotted there with Taylor Swift earlier this year and wined and dined Kim Kardashian for Valentines Day at this West Village restaurant. But the real stars of this now 11-year-old eatery are the British and Italian inspired menu items at this high-brow gastro pup. The Spotted Pig has two floors, both of which have a bar to ensure you will be fed and liquored up whenever necessary. Nosh on bar snacks like Devils on Horseback ($9) or get right to it with oysters and mignonette ($18 for 6, $36 for 12), sheep’s milk ricotta gnudi with basil pesto ($18), or wild striped bass accompanied by summer squash, anchovy and basil ($32). Plus, you can never go wrong with their infamous burger.
