As much as editors may try, one cannot survive on Luna bars and champagne alone. So, it's fitting that the spacious new Atlantic Grill outpost opened its doors across from Lincoln Center—just in time for fashion-loving foodies hoping to pack in some protein and healthy bites before a night of binge-partying. The restaurant, now serving dinner, is helmed by Christopher Lim (formerly of BLT Steak) and features clean, New England-style seafood with a fresh sushi twist. The heirloom tomato salad with watermelon and ricotta ($12) was the exact pick-me-up we needed after sipping bubbly and riding Wang's merry-go-round, and the refreshing arctic char with pureed daikon ($27) may give us the betas we need to survive 'til Friday. For sushi lovers, the Golden Roll, a crispy treat rolled up with lobster and banana paper ($12), was amazing—jot it down to the fact that Sushi Gari's head chef took over the Grill. And for sweets, the chocolate praline crunch bar ($12), paired with a bubbly prosecco, gave us just the burst we needed to trot back to Lincoln Center, buck-up and look sharp (and full!).
