The Scene

This tiny boutique restaurant, one of the most expensive in New York, is an ideal venue for a marriage proposal. The eatery features a variety of small, simply appointed dining spaces, including a small patio in back. Service is excellent--maitre d' Joseph Scalice is among the best frontmen in the city, and on birthdays and other special occasions, he's likely to appear tableside, a bouquet of roses at the ready.

The Food

Explosively-flavored haute cuisine, crafted into sexy-looking, tasting-sized portions. Wayne Nish is the gustatory visionary at March--his hallmarks are sweeping flavor contrasts and a flair with Asian ingredients. Highlights include the free-range Quebecois veal (with shimeji mushrooms, tomato, asparagus, pine nuts and tarragon) and the sauteed striped bass, which features a shredded-phyllo crust, fregola, stewed garlic and escarole.

The Grand Tour

Try the $196, seven-course tasting menu, served with matching wines.
