In case you need a break from all of the shopping and galleries, here are Whitewaller‘s favorite places to grab a bite to eat on Madison Avenue.
Sant Ambroeus Upper East Side
Sant Ambroeus on Madison Avenue, like its sister locations, is a hot spot for meetings. Recognized as a “place to see and be seen,” the Milanese restaurant offers traditional Italian dishes, as well as coffee and dessert for those looking for a pick-me-up or something sweet.
Whitewaller recommends: Trying the avocado toast or green lasagna.
E.A.T. Upper East Side
Loved for its overstuffed sandwiches on thin bread, jelly doughnuts, meticulous salads, and caviar omelets, E.A.T. is a unique favorite in the New York restaurant scene for Eli Zabar’s original ideas and attention to detail.

Casa Lever Gardens Upper East Side
Casa Lever Gardens is a welcome oasis in the heart of New York City’s midtown. This seasonal lounge and restaurant is one of the rare outdoor dining options in the neighborhood and a destination for nearby offices as well as uptown locals stopping in for evening drinks and light bites. While the bar at Casa Lever Gardens attracts a lively after work crowd, the lounge style seating is also perfect for a fun summer dinner with friends or a casual date night spot.
