This recently opened restaurant is inspired by small beach spots called lolos in Saint Martin. The menu is very fish-focused and includes conch fritters, crispy baked shark, and jerk ribs. Leggi tutto.
Home of Harlem’s best chicken and waffles. As seen on Travel Channel’s Man v. Food Nation.
This classic eatery hasn't been around for 100 years for no reason - the smoked fish, latkes, and friendly waitstaff are legendary. But beware - you'll never settle for subpar lox ever again!
Order the Non Ti Scordar di Me. Award winning specialty, warm panini with speck, brie and paté. Straight down from heaven.
Nothing is like getting up on a weekend morning and getting a coffee and a creame cheese bagel from H&H. -Alex Eusebio, Top Chef
An excellent bar burger, well-griddled, juicy and blanketed in melty American cheese. Leggi tutto.
The combo patters are great, the shish kabobs remind me of the spot over on steinway and 31 in Astoria which makes sense since John is an Astoria native. Personal favorite : Chicken sandwich, drool
Try two kathi rolls ($6). "Fillings include chicken, lamb or vegetarian, but communication is rocky, so what you get may be a surprise. As long as you can take some spice, it’s all good." Leggi tutto.
Greek food truck with solid souvlaki, friendly service, and homemade Greek specials like pork chops and baklava. Lines can grow long; go early or late to skip the lunch rush.
Try the fried pizza - the dough is deep-fried, but it isn't greasy, it comes off as extra-crisp.
Shanghai fried buns, pork soup dumplings, scallion pancake, wonton purse in casserole
The chorizo, egg, and cheese sandwich at this truck is unreal - and cheap! However, if you're expecting to cure a Sunday morning hangover with one, you're out of luck - they're only open Mon-Fri.
Not your average chicken and rice cart--the lamb here is tender and succulent, and the rice is clean and light.
This sleek bistro offers “haute-cuisine versions of home-cooking favorites.” Their theatrical and legendary DB Burger is “rich, well travelled, charred in the right places, and a little bit jaded.” Leggi tutto.
Small takeout joint with big, tasty burritos. If you like Chipotle, you'll love this place. Go for the chili con carne or the BBQ chicken and a bag of their addictive chips.
Roast Beef Special: House-roasted beef is dipped in its juices, layered with fresh mozzarella, and sandwiched between a roast-beef-specific bread that's a cross between an English muffin and focaccia. Leggi tutto.
The mozzarella is soft and fluffy and salty and exactly what cheese dreams are made of
Get the Tabata Ramen, chicken broth enriched with coconut milk, then topped with ground roasted soybeans.
get a lunch special box (menu varied each day) for 4.99 including drink (water/tea/coffee)
Ok so now I know what the fuss is about. Tried the Alyssa on focaccia and it was really good. Lines are very long though. Go early or call in your order.
The specialty here is the cuisine of Hunan, spicy food with all manner of dried, smoked, and pickled meat and vegetables. Get the fish with chili oil sauce and the dried beef with white peppers.
Try the katsu curry ($7.50). "Flavored with pureed apples, ketchup, curry powder and garam masala, the brown gravy is sweet and mild & is popularly topped with tonkatsu, a breaded, fried pork cutlet." Leggi tutto.
Go to Shun Lee pre- or post-theater and eat the best Chinese in the company of papier-mâché monkeys and dragons.
My fav lunch spot in New York. Try the turkey pastrami ruben made with homemade thousand island and locally sourced sour kraut. Paired with a delicious ice cold kombucha on tap you can't go wrong.
