Michelin Guide: "Located at the base of the handsome Park South hotel, Sweetbriar a buzzy spot, where well-dressed diners make for enjoyable people watching." Sweetbriar restaurant delivers New American cooking kissed by the flames of a wood-fired grill and a seasonally directed menu that has something for everyone. Love mushrooms? This is the place to partake, since they're sourced from all over the world. Case in point? A Seared maitake mushroom, dressed in a warm parmesan cream sauce with ricotta gnudi and Guanciale chips. Or, start things off light with a crudité of seasonal vegetables with a sweet basil mascarpone before tucking into a heartier house favorite of wood fired spinach dip composed of French gruyere and charred spinach served with wood fire grilled bread .

• French • TriBeCa

Yves Restaurant was inspired by Smith & Mills owners adoration of the small and highly personalized owner-operated neighborhood Café culture in Paris (Montmartre) and North Africa, Morocco. Yves occupies a two hundred year old former Seafarers Inn, across from the main downtown Hudson River entrance. The restaurant is washed in a minimalist design aesthetic in the heart of picturesque Tribeca. The photographic artwork is inspired by the marriage of fashion, design, community and people. The menu exudes clean and modern French fare sprinkled with a Moroccan influence. Although refined, the dishes are comforting, approachable and familiar. Our culinary team’s approach is simple sophistication balanced with a side of whimsy and fun.Yves has been labeled the best view to water and people watching in Tribeca. The 46 seat (interior seating) is made much larger feeling by the 80 plus outdoor seats (weather permitting) on the corner of N Moore st with the Hudson River in the backdrop.

    Sat in the high top at the bar area. As always, service was fantastic. Special mention to Cruz, the bartender who took care of us. He always has a great personality, and is helpful and professional.

    Really enjoyed dinner. The cocktail list was great and thankfully not overwhelming. The portions were huge actually. We ordered 2 apps and an entree for the 2 of us and we couldn't even finish everything. Everything was absolutely delicious though and I would absolutely come back. Great decor as well.

    The entire experience was fantastic. Beautiful ambience and easy to have a conversation with your partner or whoever you are there with since it is quiet. Food was immaculate and the espresso chocolate martini was spectacular. Highly recommend for a nice date night, top notch. Will come back again!

    Made rezzies last minute, my extended Sicilian family, party of six w/two young kids. They took care of us warmly. The food was excellent, something for everyone, service was very attentive. One of my guests asked for bread, then a spoon for her pasta, neither of which arrived, but hey we dealt with it just fine. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. Thank you Serafina.
