"Excellent Place for food...oh, and I like living there too! :)"

I bought my co-op in 2007 after living in many, many neighborhoods in this city. The nicest thing about Gramercy is it’s proximity to Union Square and the subways. Also, it is relatively quiet, especially compared to the East Village where I lived for a while. The bars are also nice, you rarely hear the noises late at night, though they are always a fun to hang out in. I recommend Big Daddy’s for fun dinning (same sort of food as Lyric Dinner, but better portions and a more camptastic atmosphere) and Wildwood BBQ for some really interesting brunch options (they have a Southside Eggs Benedict which uses pulled pork instead of Canadian bacon and cornbread instead of an English muffin…sooooo good)

The only downside is the addition of the NYU dorm up at 23rd and 3rd…..but luckily the youngins seem to flea the area after dark for the more exciting late night neighborhoods.
