Bill's Bar and Burger: Better than the Shack?

REVIEW

February 11, 2010


CUISINE: American (Traditional), Burgers
NEIGHBORHOOD: Chelsea, Meatpacking District, West Village

 

22 9th Ave. at 11th St.

(p) 212-414-3003

 

In a neighborhood filled with designer showrooms and fancy hotels, the popularity of Bill's Burger proves that everyone likes to dumb it down once in a while. The front room revolves around a generic bar; the back is filled with blue and white checkered-tablecloths and exposed brick. Heinz ketchup as well as both Gulden's and French's mustards adorn the tables. CONT'D

The Standard Grill

REVIEW

CUISINE: American (New), American (Traditional)

The Standard Grill, located on the first floor of Andre Balazs's Standard Hotel, has been praised for both its food and its scene. The main dining room — a grand space with high ceilings, large windows, and a floor tiled with pennies — is a sight. In terms of sheer size, the restaurant seems to have more in common with a chain like Fridays or Olive Garden than a coveted dining destination, but the high-quality food and impressive diners put any un-glamourous associations to rest.
