Food Scene

One of our favorite restaurants in the neighborhood and best steak houses in the country. There is always a 2 hour wait for dinner so go for brunch or count on hang time at the bar next door.

Detroit-style pizza. It's personal pies (though it's quite big for one person) and a sit down restaurant. It is SO DELICIOUS! I went there 2x in one week when it first opened.

I never ever get sick of riding this ferry. The views of the city are amazing! It's also a really fun way to get into lower Manhattan. There's an entrance to the ferry on South 8th street. It's maybe a 10 minute walk from the apt.
