While New York City’s dining landscape seems increasingly covered with food and drink businesses crafted to cater to social media, Raoul’s is a real-deal downtown destination that’s been open since 1975. The French restaurant’s bar and dining room are a veritable collage of antique-fixtures and copious nude paintings all awash in romantic light. Menu items include escargots, crab beignets, seafood, chicken and steak preparations.
