Sister Jane

This younger East Village sister to the West Village’s long-running Tavern on Jane has the same low-key vibe and recipe for hot wings. A pressed-tin ceiling, mahogany bar, comfy barstools, high tables and a banquette flush with pillows make it the consummate neighborhood hangout. The straightforward menu includes fried chicken and a monster burger stacked with beer-battered onion rings—just the sort of ballast required when partaking in the extensive drinking options.
