The Bennett - Tribeca

Elevate your mood and make the most of your evening  by spending some quality time at The Bennett, a  bar and lounge that is bringing a large dose of glamour to the Tribeca nightlife scene.
 
The decor is visually appealing with aqua blue banquettes  and  a gold brocade design that runs the length of the ceiling.  Friendly folks gather after work at the light wood bar with a glossy black top. The color scheme throughout the bar draws you in, without, in any way, being loud or cheesy.
 
However, none of this would matter if the liquid refreshment wasn't top shelf. The Bennett serves some of the finest cocktails in the city, bar none.
 
Tasting is believing when you sip the Bergdorf Lunch, whose ingredients ( pisco, green apple juice, elderflower and an orange blossom spritz), come together  for a lasting impact.
Another boost your spirits concoction is the Dove Dispatch, which consists of tequila, campari, red bell pepper, grapefruit juice and a pinch of chili salt.
If you're on the run from the stress that's taken over your day then the getaway car is just what you need. Pineapple and lime juice, Tiki bitters and a dose of ancho chile are centered around a splash of Jamaican rum.
Bennet
Gourmet bar snacks that will fill you up without that stuffed, heavy feeling, include cauliflower croquettes with blue cheese, savory wagyu steak skewers and the dish that everyone craves, the griddled cheddar toastie. Your pullman loaf is covered in gooey melted cheddar along with apple slices, pecans and grainy mustard.
 
Brunch is quite a big deal at the Bennett and rightly so. Their chefs prepare  food that has some personality to it.

The always acclaimed ricotta beignets are made with super fine sugar and, get this, beer jam.
 
Another must-try are the French-influenced eggs cocotte with bacon, roasted tomatoes, as well as both goat and Gruyere cheese. Your dish is accompanied by home fries and a house salad. You will be good to go until dinner time.

Terroir - Tribeca

The buzz here has always been about the fantastic wine list as well as the delicious food created by executive chef Andrew Riccatelli. Now, however, that buzz throughout the neighborhood has gotten a lot louder ever since chef Andrew achieved a hard-fought
victory on the Food Network show Chopped !

Inspired by his grandmother's cooking ,back when he was growing up in New Jersey, Andrew takes a simple, basic dish and turns it into something extraordinary. The secret is in the locally sourced ingredients and his talent for seasoning.
A man of many talents, Andrew, when he is not cooking at Terroir, plays drums in an independent rock band by the name of Grail.
 
The decor here is rustic Italian, which means that everything has a colorful, sexy edge to it. Wine bottles are artfully displayed on the walls and there are ample communal tables to accommodate the after work crowd.
Terroir
If you are a fan of wine, keep an eye out for special events that you won't want to miss. Terroir recently hosted a wine tasting and seminar with Olivier Humbrecht.
 
As you might imagine, wine is the beverage of choice here. They have everything that you could desire, from Champagne and Riesling to reds and whites from France's Loire valley. You can order a glass or a bottle of some quality domestic wines, as well.
 
There's quite an interesting story behind the Italian winery that supplies Terroir with their delicious reds and whites.
Located in the Piedmont region of the land of Galileo and DaVinci, Produttori del Barbaresco was Italy's first wine co-operative. The Barbaresco label was founded in the Nineteenth century. Today, 19 growers are part of the team. The present winery is actually located across the street from the church where, generations ago, wine was made in the basement.
 
No matter what hours you call leisure time, there's a Happy Hour waiting for you at Terroir. Their "Bar Snack happy hour" goes from Monday through friday. You can snack early from 4 to 6 PM or, after a movie or concert, get your snacking on from 11 PM until closing time.
All bar snacks on the menu, such as deviled eggs, marinated olives or chicken liver toast, are two dollars off the regular price.
 
Chef Andrew's regular menu offerings  are a nice mix with something to please everyone from meat lovers to vegetarians. The beets with local burrata are on most regular customer's top five list of signature dishes here, as are the pork belly sliders. The shrimp tempura and short rib hash with sweet potatoes are also well worthy of your attention.
 
Chef's signature dish, though, the veal and ricotta meatball hero, draws heavily on Andrew's Italian heritage.
Leave room for one of the sweet endings on the menu, especially the delectable chocolate custard and the caramel apple bread pudding.
 
Andrew Riccatelli may not yet have achieved celebrity chef status, but he is well on his way to doing so.

Bar Cyrk  - Tribeca

Both out of town visitors and native New Yorkers alike are fond of saying that the city is "the greatest show on earth." People watching is almost akin to a spectator sport here.
 
Well, Bar Cyrk, in terms of food, drinks and decor, is proud to celebrate the 24/7 circus that is the city that never sleeps.
 
The  theatrical decor, which runs the gamut from slightly subdued to boisterously loud, is inspired by the circus and also by the old-time opulent movie palaces. Art deco fixtures, subway tiles, garish neon lights and an over the top chandelier are just a few of the items that will captivate you.
 
Each cocktail has a personality all of its' own. Come one, come all and see the show being held behind the bar!
 
The Wonder Wheel mixes grapefruit reduction with muddled cucumbers, seltzer and a shot of rum. The bartenders make the Bellini into something a great deal more than just a brunch cocktail. Their blend of lemon juice, peach and Prosecco is right on target.
BarCyrk
The Wild Cat most certainly lives up to its' name with ingredients such as Florence fennel, vodka and muddled strawberries. You'll also enjoy sipping the Harlequin. Apple cider and lime juice very nicely complement the vodka.
 
There is some serious cooking going on the kitchen of this entertaining and whimsical bar.
 
They turn out a surprisingly good pizza here. Their signature pie is the ringmaster, topped with aged and fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, olive oil, fresh basil and a dusting of Parmesan.
The Cyrcus Ball is a white pizza with a mixture of Shiitake and button mushrooms and truffle oil.
 
The non-pizza portion of the menu contains quite a few taste treats including the Tuscan bread and tomato soup. this is rustic, authentic comfort food. Many locals come here just for the organic chicken sliders on house baked pretzel bread. And one or two drinks of course. Your taste buds will do flips for the Acrobat, a dish that consists of ginger chicken dumplings with soy dipping sauce.
