Good places to eat in NYC.?

Question

HI I'm planning to vist NYC in the following weeks and was wondering what are some good resturants over there. THANKS FOR ANSWERING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

The choices are so great that it is almost overwhelming. I've lived here 7 years and there are still restaurants that I've intended to get to and just haven't had the time.
Here are a couple of suggestions that will give you a feel for some of the types of places here.

*Big Nicks is a must. It is a real NYC joint. An Upper West Side institution. Tiny space but a huge menu and amazing food. Cheap prices.
*Philip Marie in the West Village. The Brunch is amazing.
*Mary Ann's in the East Village for Mexican.
*Balduccis for Indian Cuisine (several locations, my favorite on 6th Ave in the Village)
*Angels Restorante - Upper East side for Italian at 1135 1st Ave, New York, NY
4.1 mi NE - [phone]
*Little Poland - Great Polish food.
Outside of Manhattan try 5th Avenue in Park Slope or Smith Street in Cobble Hill, both in Brooklyn.

*Desert oh yea, Juniors for Cheese Cake or Veniero's for everything else.

The third resource below, will be especially helpful

Enjoy

Answer 2

All of our friends that came in we'd take to an Italian place named Pomodoro at 71st and Columbus. There's a hidden treat just north of there at 74th and Amsterdam in Levain bakery. (amazing cookies, though technically a little undercooked to be sooo soft, and $3 each last time I was there).

Serendipity is a must over on the East side. There's usually a long line and it's cramped, but it's so worth it. Eat your meal somewhere else and just head over there for dessert. (I recommend the Yu Du Fun Do, Forbidden Broadway sundae, or the Ultimate cream cheesecake. It's all good in desserts there though.)

Baluchis is a really good Indian place.

I ate at one Ethiopian place in SOHO that sucked. Wouldn't recommend Ethiopian food.

Sadly, Little Italy has been mostly eaten by Chinatown. The best Italian food in NYC is not in Little Italy.

There's so many different styles and places to eat. I highly recommend asking your question again with specific genres and you'll get so many responses.

Have fun in NYC!

Answer 3

Baluchi's is subpar Indian. Go to Darbar on 152 E. 46th St between Third and Lexington Avenues.

For Thai, go to Holy Basil, 149 2nd Ave between Ninth and Tenth Streets.

German beer hall, Zum Schneider, Avenue C at 7th Street

High End restaurants: Jean George, Per Se, Daniel. Nobu is very overrate should anyone suggest it.

Cheap but excellent brunch: Kitchenette, 80 West Broadway in Tribeca

Answer 4

Check out Zagat's Guide to Restaurants...you can find one usually at a Books a Million near the checkout area (has list of all restaurants, costs, ratings, everything)...Bernadin's and Alain Ducasse are two of my favorites
