Upper West Side
The "Sturgeon King" has been slicing lox since 1908 in a dining room that feels lifted from another century: worn Formica, hand-painted murals, and waiters who've been refining their schtick for decades. Come for silky sturgeon scrambled with eggs and onions, stay for the time-travel charm and unlimited coffee refills.
