Listings to Savor: Delectable Apartments near NYC's 2020 Michelin-Star Restaurants

It may sound funny to have a tire company be the defining source for restaurant recommendations, but hear us out: Starting in 1900, the Michelin guide started as a free resource for motorists, offering advice on cars and places to stay on long drives. But as time passed, it started to recommend restaurants and rate the excellence of the kitchens. The star system we know today was in place a short time later, and the guide was soon devoted completely to dining.
American restaurants have only been eligible to earn Michelin stars since 2005, but the rating quickly became the ultimate mark of prestige for restaurateurs and diners alike. The 2020 Michelin stars were just announced, and five New York restaurants achieved the highest rating of three stars, which is described as "exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey." However, for residents of the following apartments, the "special journey" is a distance of no greater than one mile.

Brooklyn Fare started out as a market to meet the needs of an increasingly residential Downtown Brooklyn neighborhood, seeking to combine gourmet offerings, approachable prices, and the atmosphere of an old-school grocer. A borough away, its Chef's Table is a communal dining experience set around a kitchen counter. The courses on the Japanese and French-inspired tasting menu, which is priced at $362.21 per person, change to reflect seasonal produce.

In the eight years since Daniel Humm and Will Guidara have run Eleven Madison Park, the restaurant has considerably evolved in terms of food, experience, and ambiance. Some constants, though, are its location at the base of a historic Art Deco building, its views of Madison Square Park, and its inspirations from local culture and ingredients. An 8-10 course tasting menu in the dining room costs $335 per person, but guests are welcome to visit the bar for an abbreviated tasting menu or lighter bites.

Named for an order of monks devoted to good wine and food, seafood restaurant Le Bernardin got its start in Paris in 1972. New York diners welcomed it with open arms in 1986: It earned a four-star review from The New York Times three months after its opening, and has never dropped a star over the course five reviews. Between the Bentel & Bentel redesign, fresh ingredients, and powerhouse culinary team, it is easy to see why. Tasting menus range from $170 per person for a vegetarian option to $373 per person for a chef's tasting menu with wine pairings.

Chef Masayoshi Takayama has come a long way from his family's fish market in Japan to a restaurant on the top dining floors of the Time Warner Center across from Central Park. The simple decor of the sushi counter and restaurant is intentionally sparse to act as a blank canvas for the masterfully prepared dishes made from seasonal ingredients. The dinner price is $595 per person, but as per the Japanese custom, tips are not expected or accepted for its exceptional hospitality.
