Barney Greengrass
4.4$$$· ExpensiveAn iconic Upper West Side institution famous for exceptional smoked fish
Operating since 1908, Barney Greengrass is a historic Upper West Side appetizing store and deli fondly known as 'The Sturgeon King.' Visitors come to experience its retro, old-school NYC vibe alongside classic platters of Nova Scotia salmon, sturgeon, fresh bagels, and eggs. It remains an essential destination for traditional New York breakfast and brunch.
Expert notes
- The most famous items from the menu are sturgeon scrambled eggs, bagel with lox, potato latkes, and cheese blintzes. Expect a long line on weekends since the restaurant is famous. There is also a grocery store under the same roof; people can buy chopped liver and other stuff to take home.
