Now in a more portable edition, the fourth annually revised edition of The New York Times Guide to Restaurants in New York City features reviews of more than 1,000 dining establishments by the respected Times restaurant reviewers William Grimes and Eric Asimov.

* New arrivals to the vastly changed restaurant scene
* The latest ratings under The Times's star rating system
* Reports on what's trendy and what's truly innovative and excellent
* Thoroughly cross-referenced with lists of establishments by neighborhood, price and cuisine
* Listings at every price level to provide the widest possible choice where to go and what to eat

Unlike other restaurant guides, every review highlights the best dishes to order, describes the restaurant's ambience, and includes the complete price range for each course on the menu.
