One White Street is a neighborhood restaurant in Tribeca. Some of their ingredients I believe come from its upstate New York farm. Seasonal and carefully prepared.

Cabo Mexican Restaurant serves Mexican food with a slight American influence. The atmosphere is lively and relaxed. Music fills the space.

Josh's Hot Dogs is a local diner known for its Chicago-style hot dogs made with Vienna Beef. A familiar stop for families and students. Classic neighborhood energy.

Queen B Cafe is a neighborhood café known for eggs Benedict. A relaxed brunch spot. I also helped design bee-themed wall decals there.

Backyard Grill is run by the brother of the owner of Grill House. The menu offers many of the same casual favorites. Exposed brick walls give the space a warm, rustic feel.
