Bib Gourmand by Michelin: Best New York City restaurants for $40 or less

There is a rumor that life in New York City is really expensive especially when it comes to gastronomy. Michelin proves the contrary by revealing the "Bib Gourmand" list of the best New York restaurants associating high gastronomy with reasonable prices. Tested and approved by Michelin inspectors, 19 new restaurants just made their way into the list of 126 restaurants from the Michelin Guide New York City 2015.


The Bib Gourmand is a highly desired honor awarded to restaurants that are offering high-quality food, two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for $40 or less. If some of them already have been part of the list for a while, some new restaurants are making their appearance into it for the first time.

Bar Primi



Already awarded by the prestigious New York Times, Bar Primi is an Italian restaurant offering delicious traditional food such as ricotta ravioli, San Daniele prosciutto with mozzarella di bufala, fresh vegetables and antipasti as well as homemade tiramisu and ice creams.

Pearl & Ash



In a private atmosphere, discover a refine gastronomy where the plate dressage is the first step to a delicious dinner. Octopus with sunflower seed, poached  egg with walnut are part of a very healthy and gourmet menu.

Baker & Co.



Really modern, this restaurant also offering some wine and beer tasting as well as American brunch will seduce you. For the lunch, we would go for fried squid, mozzarella and arugula focaccia or an homemade pizza while there will be some gargantuan dinner with trufles fries and veal ragu. On the dessert side, they are all homemade and vary between the hazelnut/chocolate cake and the rhubarb pannacotta for the most daring.

Mayfield



The traditional American restaurant! Located in trendy Brooklyn district, this place named after legendary singer Curtis Mayfield offers a rustic setting and gastronomy. Here, the meat is the queen and we are tasting it with both eyes closed: pork saltimbocca, honey dressing, caramelized onions... the high-quality grill in all its glory!

Below, you will find the full list of Bib Gourmand restaurants with their locations and also the mention of if they are new or not.
