New York, NY

Best Greek in New York.

Harry currently ranks 10 greek spots in New York, scoring 80–87 on the Harry Score. 2 carry critic or guide backing. Prices run $ to $$.

Greek food sets a deceptively simple exam: good oil, real lemon, vegetables in season and fish that saw the grill and nothing else. Simplicity punishes laziness — with four ingredients on the plate, the fourth-rate one introduces itself immediately. Harry scores the restraint as much as the cooking.
