Restaurants
Arabelle
The elegant Upper East Side restaurant is best for meat and fish lovers, with entrees like roasted halibut, braised short ribs and a 16oz pepper crusted prime rib eye. Arabelle also has a daily afternoon tea with a food menu complete with scones, quaint tea sandwiches and mini pastries. B (daily), L & D (Tu-Sa), Brunch (Su). $$$
Ariana Afghan Kebab
Savory, meat-filled kebabs and eggplant, pumpkin and potato curries served with basmati rice and salad keep diners coming back. L & D (daily). $$
Armani/Ristorante
Offerings at this fashion-conscious restaurant include oven-baked wild sea bass and risotto with aged parmigiana. L (M-F), D (M-Sa), Brunch (Sa & Su). $$
Arno Ristorante
In a plush and open dining room, guests can indulge in pesto gnocchi, seafood risotto, chicken breast with artichoke and veal sautéed with prosciutto, spinach and sage. L (M-F), D (M-Sa).
aRoqa
Eclectic flavors form inventive plates meant for sharing (sunchokes chaat: sweet potato, pomegranate emulsion, bean sprouts, cucumber raita), on a menu that also features chef's table specialties (kataifi mushrooms: wild mushrooms, saffron croquettes, goat-cheese relish). L & D (daily).
Arriba Arriba!
Customers enjoy traditional spicy fare—fajitas, burritos, enchiladas, chimichangas and more—and daily happy hour specials. L (M-F), D (nightly), Brunch (Sa & Su). $$
Arrogant Swine
Don't take the venue name as an insult—rather, take it as forshadowing for all the pork you're about to eat. The 3,000-square-foot beer hall is unlike anything in Bushwick, where whole hogs are pit-smoked in Carolina fashion. There are 20 beers on draft and 40 bottled help you wash down the meat (priced by the half-pound). D (T-Sa), Brunch (Sa & Su). $$
