Anyone have a good recommendation for Sunday Brunch in NYC for the special occasion of my Mom's birthday? I planned on Cafe des Artistes, but it's booked...yikes, it's for this Sunday....double yikes
Remember Cafe des Artistes in St Barths, and those big cheese wheels they would bring out and put under the warming lamp? Never had the nerve to order that, but the burgers were crazy delicious....I digress

Isn't this great? Ask a question, and get some answers...thanks!
Being one of six kids, I'm afraid I have been beaten to the Sibling Rivalry Rainbow Room. The Park East Grill Brunch looks good.... Blue River Cafe in Union Square? Josh, I can't find it...Is it possible you mean Union Square Cafe? or the River Cafe in Brooklyn? Both exceptional reminders...I might just move up to the Child #1 spot with one of those...

I meant Blue Water Grill. Sorry I garbled the name. One of my favorites, too. It's in a former bank building.

We have always liked the Bryant Park Grill, especially the setting. Tim

Thanks for all the suggestions, and Josh, Blue Water Grill was perfect....Mom was very happy, especially when we were shuffled by the waiting hungry diners thronging the entry way because I had a reservation generated by your suggestion...the food and ambiance were excellent.......it was an especially glorious day in the city today :)

So glad you liked it, ashtangi. Sunday brunch was the first meal I had there with the family of what was to be my future son-in-law. That seems to have worked out OK so I guess the karma is good.

Best place for Sunday Brunch is either Sarabeths which is on 59 and Central Park South or if you want a bit fancier, The Pierre Hotel on 61st and 5th.
Personally, Sarabeths is the best in NYC (I live in the city and go quite often)

Ashley, ignore him, he's from Philly. Thank you for the recommendation, the menu looks wonderful! Another great spot for brunch in NYC is Marseille. I believe the web-site is www.marseillenyc.com.
And if any of you are blessed with a trip to Philadelphia, you'll love Creperie Beau Monde. www.creperie-beaumonde.com
