Patrick's on the Hill

On Amsterdam Avenue, this Harlem spot serves classic island dishes with a side of live music. The oxtail earns raves—one diner called it a 10/10—while the mango mint non-alcoholic drink gets a refreshing nod. Weekend sessions bring jazz, R&B, and sometimes a DJ or poetry, with The EasyTones among the performers. The atmosphere suits a calm dinner or date night, though the brown chicken has been noted as dry. Still new, the place seems to be finding its rhythm.
