156 Tenth Avenue, Chelsea. This place doesn’t get the Instagram attention that places like Balthazar and Sadelle’s get, which means you can actually get a table. The ricotta pancakes ($18) are light and fluffy with blueberry compote. The huevos rancheros ($19) are properly spicy. The Bloody Mary ($16) is one of the best in Chelsea, heavy on the horseradish. Brunch for two with drinks is about $70-80, which feels fair for the quality.
Cookshop has been dishing out inspired American brunch fare in Chelsea for two decades.
