Noteworthy FiDi Restaurants

• ADRIENNE’S PIZZA BAR

Located among the cobbelstones on Stone Street, Addrienne’s houses some of the best pizza in New York. I also recommend the melanzana parmigana. But the service leaves something to be desired. 54 Stone St. btwn Coenties Alley and William

• ANDREW’S COFFEE SHOP

Decent place for cheap food. I’ve had breakfast here a few times and it wasn’t bad. However, with new places sprouting all over FiDi, they need to improve on their menu. 116 John St. at Pearl St.

• CAFE SAGE

Not big on Thai food personally, but I have heard some very good things about this place. 108 John St.

• Financier

Cute little stores. Good food for moderate prices. Definitely the place to go for pastries and crepes. Service is ok. My friend raves about their Le Financier sandwich which is made of grilled chicken, marinated artichokes, roasted tomato and fresh goat cheese and is hot pressed. 62 Stone St/35 Cedar St./3-4 World Financial Center

• GOLD ST.

The first 24/7 diner in FiDi comes to us from the same owners as Financier, Ulysses and Adrienne’s. With a menu full of appetizers, burgers, sandwiches, full-course meals, breakfast food, sushi, salads and desserts there is always something new to try. The egg omelets are cooked well as are the appetizers (southern fried chicken wings, kobe beef sliders, calamari, disco fries – all yummy). The only negatives I have about this place is the food is a little overpriced for the amount given and the delivery men never seem to have change. 2 Gold St

• PEARL STREET DINER

The other diner in FiDi, although not 24/7. I don’t know if I would ever dine-in at this place – it does look a little sketchy from the outside – but the food isn’t bad. I highly recommend their chicken souvlaki and fries and their breakfast food. 212 Pearl St at Fletcher St

• STELLA MARIS

Front St. is theplace to be these days. And Stella Maris is one of the best. While I’ve only had desserts there – which are divine and come from the Stella Maris Cafe – they supposedly can do no wrong at this restaurant. Welcoming staff, good food, what’s better? 213 Front St.

• SUSHI A LA KAWA

If the only thing you ate was sushi, you would never starve in FiDi. Home to at least 5 sushi restaurants, FiDi is sushi heaven. And the place I go to is Suhi a la Kawa. Granted, I’ve never stepped foot in the place, but their delivery is solid. They have some pretty good deals and their sushi is always fresh. I recommend the spicy tuna roll, philadelphia roll, tamago (egg) and inari (bean curd). 18 Maiden Lane

• ZEN PALATE

It was definitely a sad day when Zen Palate closed its Union Square location recently. But thankfully, Zen Palate is alive and well in FiDi. If your a vegetarian – and even if your not – this is the place to get some grub. Good food, decent prices – lunch specials. If your usually a carnivore don’t be afraid to experiement. Try some scallion pancakes, sweet and sour sensation or taste of malay – spicy – oh, and don’t let its names scare you, but the desserts are really, really good. 104 John St
