A little on the $$ side, but it's fantastic modernist mexican cuisine unlike anything you've probably had.
Everything here is the best. Pair one of their exotic specials like black label rum with a foundation like salted pretzel caramel.
You gotta hit a shake shack. If you can, go for the original in Madison Square park, but they have locations all over. Don't sleep on the ChickenShack. I like it with a Vanilla shake.
Any of David Chang's restaurants are great, but this one is his canonical form. Nominally Korean food, but with all kinds of innovative twists.
"On a menu full of earthy curiosities—like ... a smoked-catfish-and-pork spread that sounds horrible but tastes wonderful as a dip for market crudités—adventure is its own reward." Read more.
People! Good scotch eggs are hard to come by. Egg wrapped in sausage (what?!) and then deep fried (!!!), served with killer spicy mustard.
Go for a glass of rosè on the gorgeous deck but skip the wait for dinner. The line may look intimidating on a warm summer night but moves very quickly, stick it out.
Don't forget to add the corn and onions with your steak. Pepper garlic rice is a heavenly mound of pepper, rice, corn, garlic, and steak bits.
Get a beef rib for sure. Skip the brisket, as it's similar to the rib and go for something different like the amazing Sriracha wings. Be careful about over ordering.
A little out of the way but a must if you're nearby. 4 inch key lime tart and limeaid. Enjoy at the colorful picnic tables.
Cronuts!! Best hybrid of 2013: croissant meets bagel meets filling and frosting <3 (Excuse the bite in the photo).
Here's what happens when hipster chefs get it right. Market-driven goodness and go-to pizzas. Check out the Heritage Radio Network, which broadcasts from the dining room on Sundays. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Dim sum is unreal. Ideal meal is crab and pork soup dumplings, Katz pastrami egg roll, BBQ pork belly, and pan fried spicy pork buns. You'll pay twice the price of Chinatown and it'll be worth it.
Get the Mexican corn. if the wait is too long, go around the corner to the annex for to go orders.
I know you want a lobster roll, but that's the wrong move here. At Mary's you want to go for a whole fish. Ask your server which one, they'll know what's best today.
Worth the wait! I love their original burger - cooked perfectly! Obviously their milkshakes are the main attraction. I loved the cookies and cream shake!
Insanely spicy and quite delicious new Thai spot with authentic ways like coconut crab curry, the pork starter, and the greens side dish.
This is Jewish brunch heaven. Just get there early if you don't want a long wait. Super Hebster -- whitefish salad, salmon, wasabi infused roe on bagel toast -- and the Lower Sunny Side (pictured).
