Bijgewerkt 15 december 2023
New York City is known as the city that never sleeps, and for good reason: there's always something going on. The city is home to some of the most unique nightlife in the world, and the best bars in NYC range from local dives to high-end restaurants, to everything in between. But where are the smartest, savviest diners eating out? Welcome to our Tastemaker List. We’ve pulled data from thousands of restaurants to find the top spots among OpenTable's most expert, seasoned diners. You’ll find everything from neighborhood gems to rooftop views, classic hotel spots to white-tableclothed steakhouses—all vetted by the types of tastemakers who know the best spots around the city. Impress your friends and family and score a spot; we wish we could join you.

Italiaans
TriBeCa
This TriBeCa hotspot offers modern Italian cuisine and a matching modern Italian wine list. It's one of the pricier bars on this list, however, and getting a reservation is extremely difficult. However, if you're lucky enough to get in here, it's well worth the money spent.

Unlike many Italian restaurants that specialize in pan-Italian fare suited for the American palate, Masseria dei Vini near Columbus Circle boasts strictly Puglian fare and exclusive Italian wines suited for a more refined palate.

Gramercy Park
Located in the heart of the West Village, Boucherie prides itself on having patrons experience authentic French culture and cuisine. As a result, the bar features absinthe and various mixed drinks with absinthe as the main ingredient. If you're looking for one of the best bars in NYC for absinthe, you've come to the right place.

Heel mooi kader, je waant je in Parijs. Alleen de wijnkaart vind ik exuberant duur , te weten dat de wijn 3 x goedkoper te krijgen is in België voor t zelfde etiket.

Modern Amerikaans
Midtown
The Modern overlooks the Museum of Modern Art (which is where, perhaps, the venue got its name) and it takes the same artistic approach to its cuisine...and its beverages. As one of the finest Upper East Side bars, The Modern offers more than 3,000 wines specifically curated by an in-house sommelier, and in 2016, The Modern earned the Grand Award from Wine Spectator. On the drinks side, expect signature mixtures with snarky play-on-words (Frozen Assets, No Soup for You, and Mission Fig Possible are just a few of the many mixed drinks).

This is perhaps the only bar on this list that's based in New York City but prides itself on its California influences. Changing its menu with the seasons, Upland is located near Madison Square Park and boasts a robust wine and spirits list alongside its full bar.
