In brief: The quirkiest of old-time neighborhood spots, there are no tourists who wander in accidentally. Everything is a couple dollars more than you'd want to spend, but the menu is diverse and we are always pleased upon exit.

Noho Star is an oddball, but it's longstanding presence in the neighborhood lends it an aura of genuine authenticity that we love. Plus it's always pleasantly packed, never too loud, and the menu is whatever you want it to be. A perfect place to catch up with colleagues.
