Come December, the West Village haunt kicks things up a notch with beautiful decorations. A bit tamed compared to some of the other spots mentioned on this list, it’s one of my favorite Christmas-decorated restaurants in New York City.

The food is solid and the drinks are great, I’m a big fan of the Garden Martini (vodka, st. germain, clarified cucumber and basil). As for food, the pasta dishes never disappoint.
