83 Maiden Ln (Btwn Gold St & William St), New York, NY
Mexican Restaurant · Financial District · 99 tips and reviews
Village Voice: Be wary because at lunchtime, you'll creep through the line, especially on Taco Tuesday. But all the food has strong flavors and is fresh, filling, and delicious.
24 Peck Slip (btwn Front & Water St), New York, NY
Sushi Restaurant · Financial District · 57 tips and reviews
Village Voice: The lack of pretension here is a welcome change from other sushi joints, and the fresh fish, interesting roll combinations, and flavor packed sashimi “tastes” make it worth becoming a regular.
Vietnamese Restaurant · Financial District · 48 tips and reviews
Village Voice: This no frills spot serves up warm baguettes stuffed with one of five options (we like classic pork and sardine), plus soul-warming pho soups. Try the Vietnamese coffee for a pick-me-up.
Bagel Shop · Financial District · 174 tips and reviews
Village Voice: Keep this on the down low, but rumor has it Leo's is serving the same delicious bagels as the ever popular Murray's bagels. They even have the same specials listed. Shh...
Village Voice: This diner offers everything from grilled cheese to burgers to Greek specialties. It's also perfect for dropping in with your sunglasses on for copious amounts of coffee and a big hangover breakfast.
64 Fulton St (btwn Gold St & Edens Alley), New York, NY
Middle Eastern Restaurant · Financial District · 16 tips and reviews
Village Voice: Most FiDi places have lines out the door at lunch for good reason. The spinach pie gets a twist with mint, swiss chard and pomegranate juice, and the kibbeh are cheap and super fresh.
104 N End Ave (btwn Vesey & Murray St), New York, NY
American Restaurant · Battery Park City · 109 tips and reviews
Village Voice: This restaurant opened to a whole lot of buzz, but has managed to live up to the hype. Sit in the bar area with a good drink while picking over bacon-peanut-butter pizza or grilled mushrooms.
215 Murray St (btwn West St & North End Ave), New York, NY
Burger Joint · Battery Park City · 332 tips and reviews
Village Voice: This famous shack probably has the best downtown burger, and the Wall-nut Street shake (chocolate truffle cookie dough, walnuts and cherries mixed into vanilla custard) is a force to be reckoned with.
