Best Cozy Restaurants in Washington Heights

This is a neighborhood gem. Great food and decor.

This is our go-to place for Thanksgiving! And we love it the rest of the year. Welcoming, attentive service, fabulous food, very low noise level—great for conversation! An all-around wonderful restaurant!!

Lefkes is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and cared for. Their warm hospitality and attention to detail truly made our dining experience exceptional. Each course was perfectly timed, and they were always nearby, ensuring our glasses were full and that we had everything we needed. The team's knowledge of the menu and their recommendations were spot on, adding to the overall enjoyment. Lefkes has set a high standard for service—I can’t recommend it enough!

We were half an hour late since the traffic driving in from CT was terrible but they were really nice about it even though the restaurant was packed. We were going to to a program across the street and they rushed our dinner for us. Best brsnzino I’ve ever eaten.

Scrumptious tapas! I recommend the Gambas Al Ajillo and the Surf and Turf!
