Hudson Garden Grill at the New York Botanical Garden

In one of the most impressive locations of any restaurant in New York, this restaurant from the STARR group (Upland, Morimoto) is surrounded by the lush 40-acre Ross Conifer Arboretum at the Garden. The emphasis, unsurprisingly, is on farm-fresh recipes, with many ingredients coming from nearby Hudson Valley. Carbo load for your garden stroll with the monkey bread, which is served with honey butter and fleur du sel.
