Il Bastardo

Ain’t no party like a brunch party! Throw down every Saturday and Sunday at Il Bastardo’s champagne brunch. This Chelsea venue brings in live DJs to get the dance floor jumping, so it feels more like a club than a restaurant. Brunch is an exclusively prix-fixe affair, though guests can choose from three packages—regular, VIP and ultimate VIP—that each come with a different amount of booze ($75, $150 and $200, respectively). Each guest gets one entree: The menu includes classics like avocado toast with fries and chocolate swirl pancakes in addition to more inventive options like a waffle iron omelette with ham, peppers and cheddar cheese. If that’s not fancy enough for you, shell out some additional cash for premium entrees like gnocchi carbonara ($10 extra), steak and eggs ($15 extra) or surf and turf with avocado toast, poached eggs, smoke salmon and caviar ($25 extra).
