| Attn: Destiny and nomembername Restaurant Kelley & Ping ($) 127 Greene St New York, NY 10012-5401 Cross Street: Between Houston Street and Spring Street Phone: (212) 228-1212 Recommended: Food, Ambience, Service, Value Prompt seating - yes Make reservations - mixed Romantic - yes Good for kids - yes Good for groups - yes Citysearch Editorial Review By Raven Snook Editorial Rating: Recommended Pan-Asian dishes draw a stylish crowd at this multi-faceted Soho spot. The Scene This Pan-Asian Soho spot is as popular as ever, attracting swank crowds of shoppers, tourists and neighborhood office workers decked out in designer duds. The minimalist, airy room is a triple-threat: teashop, noodle bar and Asian grocery all in one, with exposed brick walls, casual plastic cups and a visible kitchen. The Food Dishes hail from China, Vietnam, Korea and Thailand, and the combos, which include spring rolls, chicken satay, dumplings and duck pancakes, allow you to sample a bit of each country's cuisine. While there are a number of vegetarian plates featuring tofu, the tangy Bul Go Gui with sesame, ginger and jasmine rice is a beef lover's paradise. Pad Thai and a variety of noodle soups round out the menu, and arrive in heaping portions. Editorial content is independent of paid advertisers.

The quaint atmosphere and the uncommonly friendly floor staff, make lunch a great experience aside from the food, which is the reason to come to Kelley and Ping in the first place. Soup, salad or an asian wrap, all of the food is just great. One of my favorites is the scallion pancakes, not really a big scallion taste, but a sort of pita bread fried and served with a dipping sauce; very nice. I feel like I can eat here everyday, if only I can be in the area. Anyway, Kelley and Ping is the best bet for a great lunch anywhere in SoHo. Pros: Great food, nice staff, great environ

i been here too......VERY good Celeste 502 Amsterdam Ave New York, NY 10024-3943 Cross Street: Between 84th Street and 85th Street Phone: (212) 874-4559 Recommended: Food, Ambience, Value Prompt seating - yes Make reservations - yes Romantic - no Good for kids - no Good for groups - no <~~~~ yea i nkow bout this but i think they are wrong...everyones just gotta get there at the same time Editorial Rating: Recommended A casual trattoria serving authentic Southern Italian cuisine. The Scene This lively trattoria takes a cue from its charismatic owner--a Roman named Carmine so dedicated to his newest venture (he also owns Tiadora on the east side) that he's been known to smuggle raw milk cheeses back from Italy in his luggage. In this tiny space, Carmine bustles about, glad-handing and challenging you to find a better neighborhood restaurant at similar prices. You'd be hard-pressed to. The Food Pizzas are Neapolitan-style--thin, made with San Marzano tomatoes in a 700-degree wood-burning oven, and loaded with Mediterranean goodies. The ricotta di bufala--a rectangle of fried buffalo ricotta cheese--would be better piping hot, but tasty pastas--a simple vermicelli alle vongole among them--compensate. Non-Italian items like salmon, pancakes and French toast are available at brunch. Editorial content is independent of paid advertisers.

Restaurant Information Cuisines Italian Pizza Special Features Local Favorites Catering Notable Beer List Open 7 Days Family Style Romantic Dining Hidden Find Hours Mon-Sun 5pm-11pm Sat-Sun 12pm-3pm Payment Cash Directions 1, 2; B, C at 86th St Price Information* $ ($20 and under) * Restaurant prices are based on the average cost of a three-course dinner, excluding wine, tax and tips. Insider Tips Know Before You Go The restaurant takes no reservations: During peak times (7pm to 9pm), expect a twenty-minute wait. Tables aren't seated until the entire party is present; so if you see a big crowd outside, you might get in sooner than expected. For weekend brunch, reservations are taken for parties of 12 and up. Member Reviews -- Sorted by Most Helpful Showing 1 of 16 User Rating: Highly Recommended Favoloso Posted by jazzguy on 07/19/2004 This place is an exception to the Upper West norm of bland. The food was absolutely wonderful! Superb! Try the chicken livers in balsamic & sage reduction (awesome), and the roast salmon. I'm hard pressed to think of any place with better Italian food in NYC.
