You can order a burger at either one of these eateries, to be sure. One of them is much better known for prodigious cuts of beef, however; the other is well-regarded for its elbows-on-table eclectic fare (though I'd lean toward the mutton stew). Can you name these restaurants? (The answers are included in the comments.)

It's a well-known gathering place for communal dining (and drinking), but if you're up and about early enough to catch sight of the pretzel on the security gate, you probably didn't get your brain cells into a twist the night before. Can you name this restaurant? (The answer is included in the comments.)
The water looks fine, but you can't jump in; this restaurant closed its doors last year and drifted over to Long Island City (under a different moniker). Can you name it? (The answer is included in the comments.)
I've long wanted to try this Upper West Side destination, but on the recent afternoon when I snapped this photo, it wasn't yet open for the day. Can you name it? (The answer is included in the comments.)
