What to order: Lobster Noodles · Escargot Rendang · Corn FritterReally wonderful service- think this is what made the experience. Server was able to go into detail about options and recommendations. Really love the service. Went with a couple of flavorful drinks but the star of the show was the food. Enjoyed crudo, escargot, meat skewers, corn frittata, ribs, and fried rice as well as Ube ice cream with a couple of friends. Tasting option is a lot for one person but able to take leftovers which was nice. Next time would probs just order individually but nic

What to order: Pasta Giusto · Rigatoni Amatriciana · Bucatini Carbonara · Fiori di Zucca di Cacio e PepeVerdict: Must Try! Had our pre-broadway show lunch here and it was awesome! Loved the appetizers we had - the eggplant parmigiana and the fried shrimp and squid. The pastas we had were excellent. Especially loved the carbonara! The server was prompt and attentive even when the room started filling in. We even got complimentary canolis and a bogo offer for when we come back. Will definitely be back when we visit the city again!

RokuNana is a wonderful sushi spot that makes for an excellent date night, with a cozy atmosphere and staff who are a delight to talk to. We ordered the unfiltered sake, a Kirin beer, the sunburned special roll and the omakase sushi deluxe. Almost everything was excellent, with the sushi consistently fresh and well prepared. The one item that did not quite land was the toro, but it was a small miss in an otherwise outstanding meal. Between the food, the warm service and the intimate setting, t

Long-running restaurant offering traditional Chinese fare plus Latin American dishes.
What to order: Bistec Palomilla Fried Rice Plantains · Lomo Saltado · General TSO ChickenBest place. I’ve been going there since I was a child and they have never failed me. I don’t live in nyc anymore but I always make it a point to make sure to eat there. Nothing compares. Most of the clientele has been going there for decades and are loyal customers. The ambience isn’t the best and the restaurant is a little run down but it doesn’t take away from how delicious the food is. The service isn’t like a 5 star restaurant but they will get you what you need. They don’t bother you unnece

What to order: ilish (cooked with just the right spices) · rui fish (authentic home‑style flavor) · begun bhaji (crispy outside, tender inside) · loitta vortaI stopped in to buy a container of doi dessert. I come home to find MOLD filled in the container. I called to get a refund to my credit card and they made every excuse not to refund my purchase. They expect me to drive 40 minutes back to get another item. Absolutely disgusting. They also made me wait 15 minutes just to get one container of Doi and instead served 5 customers in the hotline that came in after me even though it would take 10 seconds to grab a container.

Relaxed destination for a limited menu of creative Vietnamese dishes, craft beers, and wine.
What to order: Classic Hanoi Style Beef - Pho Bac · Bun Cha Ha Noi · Crispy Spring Rolls - Nem RanCozy Vietnamese cusine on the lower east side. We stopped by for lunch and it was quite busy. Luckily we had placed a reservation so we didnt have to wait long. The restaurant has a nice ambiance, perfect blend of casual and intimate. We ordered the spicy garlic cauliflower as an appetizer, and for main dish we got vegetarian Banh Mi and Pho. The cauliflower was very good, the spicy seasoning and oil was very flavorful. The Banh Mi was crunchy and delicious, the fried tofu was well seasoned. The

Straightforward restaurant offering heaping chicken sandwiches with fries & milkshakes.
What to order: Signature Fries · Bird In A Bun · TendiesStopped by twice in one day while playing a show nearby—once before our set and once after to grab food for the whole band. The hot chicken was excellent, the smash burger is completely over-the-top in the best way, and the fries were a hit with everyone. The artwork and vibe inside are awesome, too. A couple notes for first-timers: there is no bathroom on site, and their heat scale is no joke. If you’re used to spicy food, Hot is pretty manageable, but SOS is absolutely insane. We had a bit o

Wines, cocktails & burgers at a laid-back bar offering a comfy, retro vibe.
What to order: Swayzee · Wanda · Yoko’s Mule · Smokes and FlamesThe burgers are decent and the beer selection is good but the service is terrible unless you’re sitting at the bar. Last two times we were sitting outside and the waiter totally ignored us because our order was initially taken by the bartender. We don’t know if the bartender and the waiter had some beef between them but it was very weird. We had to go inside multiple times and ask for everything - menu, water, another round, check. Hope they improve the service because it is a nice place.

Boutique-hotel rooftop bar with sweeping views, cocktails & small bites, plus an indoor lounge.
What to order: Chinatown Cosmo · vodka‑spiked cucumber lemonade · pastrami steamed bun · smoked mozzarella and Gruyère grilled cheeseWe had a great time at The Crown, the rooftop bar at Hotel 50 Bowery. Enjoying a drink and a bite while taking in what might be the best 360-degree view of Manhattan is something special. You can clearly spot iconic landmarks like the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and One World Trade Center, along with the Brooklyn Bridge, the Hudson River, and even parts of the skylines of Jersey City and Brooklyn.

Casual, colorfully decorated, diner-style eatery specializing in gyros & other Greek favorites.
What to order: Haloumi Appetizer · The Gyro World Plate · Spicy Chicken Gyro (stuffed with fries) · Lemon PotatoesI’ve been a regular customer here for quite some time, which is why this experience was so disappointing. A couple of months ago, I was able to order the lunch special and enjoy it inside the restaurant without any issue. When I returned recently, I was told the lunch special was takeout only. Normally that wouldn’t be a big deal, but there was only one customer in a very large dining room, and I was essentially being told I couldn’t sit down and eat my meal inside. This wasn’t about saving mo

We were here just 3 days ago and already back again today! They've got so many flavors and keep updating their ingredients. The hot pot bases and food options are endless.

What to order: Peking Duck · Lobster Fried Rice · Grand Walnut Sesame Prawns · Chicken SatayExpansive eatery featuring a buffet with a wide variety of Chinese & American offerings.
I’ve been to this buffet in the morning, and the food itself isn’t terrible, but you can tell a lot of it is from the night before. It feels like they just warm things up and put them back out. The salmon, tuna, and most of the fish dishes were the biggest disappointment. They still had that strong fishy smell and taste, so I wouldn’t recommend those at all. The dessert section was actually pretty good, and there was a decent variety overall. I’d say about half of the items on the buffet seemed

Casual Mexican joint serving up tacos & burritos alongside margaritas & beers from the bar.
What to order: Mango Jerk Chicken Tacos · Fish Tacos · Birria Tacos · Cantina NachosI’m a harlem native so i stand on business when it comes to good local spots. Cantina is one of them, strong drinks, grey good, good prices, good music and energy. The only downside to my experience recently was the AC being down and it being 80+ outside. Sweating and drinking is a bad combo if you’re trying to be out all night. Food wise i recommend the tacos, andy one of them honestly. I have the fish taco, chili lime and the mango chicken tacos, with a strawberry and goat cheese salad. ( Tha
