Great food in Times Square? And vegan to boot? Believe it. 100% of profits go to charities helping sex workers get off the street. Reservation suggested.
Delicious Korean Vegan (bet you never expected to see those three words together), amazing teas (try first green), serene environment.
A totally vegan restaurant that offers a peaceful respite from the busy street of Koreatown. A Korean destination for everyone, vegan and otherwise.
Elegant, romantic ambience, great Thai food, plenty of veg options. Central Flatiron location. Make a reservation and be prepared to wait a bit before being seated.
Opened in 1959, great, family-owned Mexican restaurant. Serious food, not Tex-Mex. Fish tacos are to die for. You can rent the private party room downstairs.
As far as I am concerned, it is the best Jewish deli in New York. My order never changes: piping hot matzoh ball soup, pastrami on rye, extra mustard, extra (full sour) pickles on the side, black cher
Superb, sedate, gourmet Lebanese restaurant. The Brussels Sprouts are heaven. Order many small plates and share.
Let your inner 90 year old woman out here and order the Mad Hatter. The age old debate still remains though - with milk or without milk?
Veniero’s Café, with its stamped copper ceilings, Italian marble floors, and stained glass ceilings, is an old world style Italian café.
if you come early enough in the morning, you'll have the place all to yourself
With its sister, Vezzo, makes best thin-crust pizza in NYC—maybe the world. Try the Shroomtown: 3 kinds gourmet mushrooms plus truffle oil. Beet salad with goat cheese & other salads great too!
The Reuben! Buttery toast squashes down thinly sliced, plentiful corned beef, dolled up with sauerkraut and a sweet touch of Russian dressing. With each bite, the melted Swiss pulls like taffy. Leia mais.
The bakery that began the cupcake craze is still the best. We suspect it’s the lick-your-fingers-to-get-the-last-bit-of-butter-cream frostings and fillings. They do a mean banana pudding too.
This is a bagel Mecca. Just get one of their special cream cheese spreads if it's your first time. The baked salmon spread is also a great choice.
This wonderful Indian grocery store, now expanding into a 3rd storefront, has long been a Curry Hill fixture. Ethnic spices, sauces, and preparations; bulk grains and legumes. Seating available.
The city's biggest and best farmers market, open Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., year-round.
Best Pad Ke Mao I've ever had. Great service, strange but cool music. Of all the places on 9th ave, this is my favorite.
Korean hipster fusion joint in NoMad opened October 2015 in space formerly occupied by Taan Thai. Within week of launch it had sellout lines at lunch halfway down the block. $7 meals thru Oct. 31.
Good food, especially the tandoori salmon! Definitely one of the better places in the area. Service was a bit disorganized, though, even though the place was mostly empty.
Amazing vegetarian/kosher cuisine! Monks and Orhodox Jews under one roof! Gotta love it!
Entire place is vegetarian. But chose the dishes carefully to align to your pallet. Some are very sweet starters and can fill you up quick. Won't go wrong with well know dishes.
This is the most authentic and best Indian food in NY (have been to 35 places in Manhattan) . Yes it's veg (tasty as hell). Yes it's price fixed ( 30 $ cheap) plus great cocktails. Enjoy!!!
Try the Shroomtown - #3kind #gourmet #mushrooms #truffle-oil #thincrust #best #NYC #pizza
Unbelievable vegetarian and vegan fare. Super creative menu and great service. Fabulous for dates!
Healthy and earthy looking brunch spot. It was super crowded on Saturday especially for brunch, but is definitely worth the wait! I highly recommend the Avocado Smash eggs Benedict and green juice.
the 'shroom burger is the best thing here: bite into it and drown in cheese. wash it down with a lemonade
The long lines are more than worth the wait. Non vegans will be confounded by how much they enjoy eating tofu when it's prepared by Cinnamon Snail! Vegans will weep. Try every donut.
Favorite vegan/vegetarian spot hands down. Desserts are phenomenal. Try the key lime pie and cheesecake! I get the chickpea fries every time. Food is so good that I once visited three times in a week
I was blown away by the veggie sushi and wraps here. You can't go wrong with anything with mushrooms. The miso soup was the only letdown.
AMAZING vegetarian sushi. They use black rice, which isn't something I've seen outside out my time in Bali, Indonesia. So good!
The “chick-un” and waffles were the best!!! They also have stand-up shows every Monday evening (6-7:15pm) downstairs. Also check their IG for discounts.
Great midtown lunch option for something different. Get the aloo masala or any unda (w egg) roll
Wonderfully light, authentic Mexican breakfasts. Fresh ingredients, friendly low price.
Hidden gem and favorite micro-neighborhood. Just a few blocks of lovely Indian restaurants of various regions, many also kosher and vegan. Plus fine spice shops, sari stores, Indian general stores.
Take your hot bagel & schmear around the corner to the cafe tables in Greenacre Park & score a free cup of coffee at Jack's with first check-in. Enjoy the waterfall! 217 E 51st St
Funky Brooklyn vibe in Flatiron! Best iced coffee in NYC, fine salads and sandwiches, free Wi-Fi, amazing eat-in library upstairs.
Best brunch in Manhattan. Fried egg sandwich and the egg white frittata are to die for. The coffee is also super nice and sourced by Brooklyn roasting company.
One of our favorite spots to get a good pastrami on rye. Don't sleep on the corned beef though, it's mouthwateringly good.
Great pizza. Really some of the best in Nyc. Tip heat a slice at home in Fry pan for a crisp thin crust ❤️
Ask for one of their most exotic cheeses - the Gjetost. The dark brown color reveals a soft goat milk cheese with caramelized sugar. It is sweet and salty and unlike anything else!
This is the best taco place in Manhattan, I should know I'm Mexican. Make yourself a favor and order corn tortillas, these are handmade, that's a big deal even in Mexico.
Brunch destination. Food is excellent, but you need a reservation and the din (huge crowd, tiled walls) makes conversation tough.
Great playlist, yummy pastries, and wonderful people. Get the cornet pastry!
The biryani with saag paneer was light as air, not a bit greasy and insanely fresh (chopped red onions and cilantro for the win). Leia mais.
A pleasant bakery that sells Belgian Merveilleux, light pastries made from meringue and whipped cream.
Part wine bar, part vegan bistro. If you can only order one thing here, make sure it's the Roasted Pumpkin & Sweet Potato Gnocchi.
The best views of the city. Huge outdoor patio with lots of beautiful people. There are many patio bars so you don't have to go inside to get a drink. -Ed Cotton, Top Chef
Menu includes dim sum, sushi, yakitori, and shareable small and large plates. But the real draw here is the design. The 22,000 square foot space has statues, pillows, fountains, giant vases, & murals.
Our favorite venue for jazz - Don't miss Jose James recording a LIVE album on Sept. 30th with Taylor McFerrin - We'll be there!
Looking for some authentic Korean barbecue? This is one of the best places to get it. Do hands-on dining on their tabletop grills, and try some of their great selection of wines as well.
This place is a vegetarian's nightmare, but pescetarians, the fish is good -- and there's a fine jazz club downstairs.
Ho-dduk is excellent! Korean pancake stuffed with brown sugar and walnut filling. Warm, gooey, soft, crunchy and not too sweet. It's like a Korean style sticky bun. Very comforting!
no words to say here, except to say "awesome". get the "cigarette" gum: the puffs produce fake smoke. so neat!
Called “Sweet & Swedish,” Sockerbit, which is also a kind of marshmallow, specializes in Scandinavian candy, making it quite a gem among New York City’s culinary locales. Leia mais.
Kelly is the owner if this charming and unique candy and ice cream shop. They have a lot of hard to find candy bars.
Boxed chocolates, macarons, ice cream, you name it. It's a one-stop shop for all things chocolate.
The chocolate speaks for itself at Jacques Torres but what goes under the radar is their hot chocolate! Seriously it's almost like drinking melted chocolate. So so good, especially in the wintertime.
Try the beignets at your own risk, they are so good you'll be hopelessly hooked
Try the Flat White - Rich & smooth. The perfect drink to get your caffeine levels back up.
Owner Jack Mazzola invented a brewing machine that continuously stirs grounds as they're mixed with hot water, resulting in a brighter, less bitter cup.
Can't go wrong with an iced coffee (it comes with a shot of espresso for extra buzz).
Only place I know in Manhattan where you can get a truly great cup of coffee AND a decent bagel. In NYC that combo shouldn't be so rare.
Brilliant salads, panini sandwiches, pasta, pastries, and coffees. All Italian, all authentic, all delicious. Tiny place gets crowded fast. Convenient to Morgan Library, on Madison Ave.
Drip coffee, fresh bakery and even almond milk. Communal table in front great for meetings. Back library perfect for relaxed reading. Could use more seating, but for Midtown East this is a real cafe.
The cold brew here is so strong it makes me want to punch thru walls Kool Aid Man style. If that's your thing, god bless. If not, look out
Way easier to navigate than the Met proper, plus the Met Breuer focuses on modern art. If I only have a limited amount of time to spend in a museum, I would rather go here than anywhere else!
