This NYC Restaurant Was Named The Most Festive In The US

NEW YORK CITY — The holiday season in New York City is in full effect and one restaurant in Manhattan is considered the best when it comes to getting in the holiday spirit.

Time Out ranked the most festive restaurants in the country, and chose German eatery Rolf's in Gramercy for its No. 1 spot.

"The tiny German eatery in Gramercy somehow packs in more holiday spirit per square foot than most city blocks do. The ceiling is hidden behind dense clusters of ornaments. Glass baubles dangle like low-hanging fruit. Figurines peek out from garlands that wrap every inch of the room. Lights flicker everywhere you look: you feel like you're dining inside a Christmas tree," the outlet said.

The festive decorations include over 200,000 lights and take three months to put together, according to the restaurant.

When stepping into Rolf's, New Yorkers can expect a menu that includes schnitzel, sausages, potato pancakes and filet marinated herring, among others.

Rolf's isn't the only restaurant in the city to make the list. Taking the number two spot is Tavern on the Green, which transforms into a winter wonderland of twinkling lights and festive decor.
