Cafe Select

One of the few hole in the wall brunch spots in Soho that takes reservations . Less trendy but better food than Jack's Wife Freda. The poached eggs over polenta with panchetta are perfection!

Seafood tower is the bomb! $80 for a full lobster , a dozen each of oysters , clams & mussels , + 2 Bloody Mary oyster shooters , smoked salmon tartare , shrimp & tilapia ceviche & grilled octopus salad !!

Recipe for the perfect brunch . Step 1: come here with a friend or three. 2: order the rosti Norwegian and the croque monsieur , with a fried egg on top. 3: splitty split your way to Swiss heaven.

During the winter you have to make reservations in the back room behind the kitchen for a cheese fondue . Cozy room decorated with a lot of original pieces from Switzerland.

There is a cool private room in the back of you want to get away from the noise.

all time favorite. wonderful, alive, merry, and quaint. perfect for small groups of friends. order rocket salad , duck egg toast , half roasted organic chicken , spatzli with wild mushrooms , and rosti

The food, service, and ambiance are on point. Lights on the ceilings are adorable, the avocado toast was divine (bread ????????) and our waiter was really fun. Will definitely be back ASAP!

This is a favorite late night dinner spot for the fashionable downtown crowd. The menu is inspired by that of an après-ski chalet, with offerings such as Raclette and Fondue . Read more

The ceiling fairy lights create a dreamy atmosphere perfect for a cute brunch date. Clean eats and great company make for a delightful experience.

The linzer tort with fresh cream and almond sorbet . Yum.

The Bitches Say: A. An unpretentious SoHo café with a chic European feel. Don’t be afraid of unfamiliar ingredients; we recommend trying the Swiss dishes for the full experience. Read more

Stumbled upon this cafe and was luckily seated in the back room past the kitchen. Such a cute spot and the food was amazing. Order the Zurich Veal ! Definitely coming back to try the fondue and brunch !

I love avocado , I love toast , and Cafe Select puts them together beautifully. An unpretentious SoHo café with a chic European feels is sure to please. Read more

I normally come here brunch and get the lemon French toast but recently discovered the much chiller, cash-only speakeasy area in the back of the kitchen!

Try the veal schnitzel with a glass of white wine recommended by your waiter , or go there for brunch and enjoy perfectly poached eggs with their succulent rösti (fried potato patties).

Came in for something quick, grabbed a turkey avocado sandwich with the alpine herbal ice tea . Clean , simple but tasty - a job well done.

In winter you want to head to the back room, but the big secret is that you can get fondue at your table in the front room, go splitty on a burger (+cheese ), and have enough fondue left to share

I felt silly ordering "massaged kale "...but I stood corrected. Enjoyed an excelled brunch w long lost bff. Arrive early ish to snag your choice of seating.

Cute little restaurant covered in fairy lights . The turkey avocado sandwich is good, with free refills on drinks. Perfect work-lunchtime spot.

Select is Balthazar without the hype and wait. Awesome food and beautiful people. Yes you will notice cool people sitting outside but go through the kitchen for a not so 'secret' bar and be one of em

A trendy restaurant sprinkled with hipsters and models. Much better for lunch than dinner . Food is solid, nothing amazing. Duck egg on toast is good. So is buckwheat crepe with salmon and bratwurst .

The burger is pretty delicious. Get it medium rare w american cheese . And if they have the escargot special, get it! You can also order the fondue even if you're not on the back room.

Sweet little Swiss spot. A go-to for brunch . Muesli pancakes are awesome. Seriously, awesome. You must get the pancakes . I don't care about your diet restrictions. Get them. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

A cozy , pretty, local brunch spot . Ordered a seasonal menu , which was delicious. Willing to visit again in months

Breakfast is served until 5pm. ????????You would be a fool to not get some form of rösti .

Through the kitchen of this stylish Austrian eatery in Soho is a hidden room. Mimicking an Apres bar in the alps, fondue and raclette are served during the colder months. Read more

My go to spot for casual brunch or dinner . Love the Rosti Norwegian and Zurich Veal dishes. Don't miss the hidden bar located behind kitchen!

For brunch , the steak and eggs with hollandaise is really something special. Solid Bloody Mary too thx to huge Spanish olives .

Great lunch ! Really nice to sit outside when sunny, best neighborhood , and really good coffee ! ☕️

Great place for drinks with cool people nearby, the food here is average. The service is good, but in general isn’t my place to be

Get the Uovo Ticinese, simply incredible. Their coffee is also excellent, best I've had in NYC.

Start with a specialty cocktail at the bar then move to the backroom for an intimate taste of something different. Order a bottle of the Petite Arvine ($73) and then go straight for the Raclette . Read more

Amazing place for lunch . Great decor and atmosphere. Raclette , burrata , rosti , poached eggs , they have it all. ????

The truffle burger is amazing and flavorful!

Love the lit up atmosphere. Fondue was average, chicken schnitzel was really good.

Get the 'home made granola ' for breakfast , it's on the starters menu, but is the perfect size.

The duck egg toast and Zurich veal are very good! Summer bruschetta was hit or miss. Their banquettes/booths were nice and comfortable .

Lovely, busy vibe.Ricotta fritters are delicious and the burger too. They don't do fries though, burger comes with chips ... ???

Charming atmosphere with Christmas lights hung from the ceiling. The truffle risotto was too good to pass up and it did not disappoint.

Great spot for sidewalk drinks in the shade.

Rosti Norwegian, Different yet Delicious ????

Vongole is nice and the coffee for to go in the morning is great. Makes me feel like I am going to work in Paris.

For breakfast , go for the Rösti Norwegian. It's lox on top of a latke . It's like having Hanukkah all year round!

Service at breakfast is laughably bad. But dinner in winter can be cozy and hearty. And I agree with Veda on the Gruner.

Amazing cheese plate vibe and loved the pasta w clams

Great cosy Swiss themed restaurant/bar/lounge that I stumbled upon. Window seat is nice at night, book back room for a group fondue&raclette. No Amex! Only Visa/MC with $25min.

Excellent brunch spot . Highly recommend the bresaola and arugula salad

Great brunch ! The Croque Monsieur is delicious had it with the French toast and Bloody Marys all great

Ask to go to the back bar . Chill spot to grab excellent drinks in a beach bar ambiance.

Really cute spot with some nice brunch specials . The lobster bacon club was really tasty without being too filling.
