Restaurants: Tavern on Jane, Tartine

Tavern on Jane

Tartine

This past weekend I spent a lovely day in the West Village with friends and found two spots that I loved: Tavern on Jane and Tartine. Unassuming from the outside (and inside, really), we stopped into Tavern on Jane for "a drink" and ended up staying for 4 hours! Given, there was a football game on, but it was relaxing and fun- vintage posters on exposed brick- not too trendy, not too grungy.

We got hungry and thought that Tartine would be a good next stop. It was my first experience at a BYOB restaurant. We picked up our Stag's Leap from a wine shop around the corner, sipped and sat outside waiting for our table (which wasn't actually that cold), and had a lovely meal!
