1 Wall St, 2nd Floor

Salon Vert is a bistro on the second floor of Printemps at 1 Wall St in FiDi, with a foliage-draped corner and carefully styled glassware and cutlery. The limited, vegetable-forward menu sits beside a raw bar, with spinach and cheese quiche as an anchor. Portions run small, so it suits drinks or light bites after shopping, daily from noon to 7 PM.
