More than 50 beers by the bottle and 28 on tap. Craft, imported, Trappist. Don't bother asking for Bud Light here. Leer más.
Pricey hamburgers are usually all style and no substance, but it's difficult to have any beef with the $26 Black Label burger made with prime dry-aged cuts at this hot spot.
Besides great views, The Standard hotel also has NY's hippest beer garden. The menu, designed by Michelin-starred chef Kurt Gutenbrunner, includes fat, flavor-packed sausages and plus-size pretzels. Leer más.

Don’t be deterred by the kitchen’s unusual pairings: “This is food that’s meant to challenge you, which is presumably why the kitchen presents it as art.” Indeed, art that you're guaranteed to devour. Leer más.

Cal Mex has never been better here than at this San Francisco-style burrito joint. The carne asada tacos are one of our faves, bulging with tender marinated steak. Don't forget to spring for the guac
Chef Telepan transforms his local, sustainable ingredients into some of the best and most elegantly plated food in town. We love the creamy homemade burrata and the piping hot lobster Bolognese! Mmm.
Decorated like a Southeast Asian market this place has the quirk of one too - Here that means food far hotter, sauces more tart and even portions more generous.
Of the three Daniel Boulud restaurants around the corner, this is the best. Try the beautiful ratatouille with a poached egg on top and make sure to save room for dessert (seriously, do it).
Sit at the sidewalk seating, perfect for a summer evening, and sample the broad range of bruschetti and uber-fresh pasta. The linguine with clams here is hard to beat!
This relentlessly yellow hot dog joint hops 24 hours a day and is a symbol of Upper West Side cheap eats. Mustard is pretty much required; the only dilemma is choosing between the onions or the kraut.
An expanded version of the Hell’s Kitchen original, this place is a hell of a lot more comfortable and has a full liquor license. Nosh on gossamer-thin Israeli Druze pitas and succulent lamb kebabs.
Cured fish is the focus here and there’s no better place for a fish-centric brunch. Try the whitefish salad on a bagel or the scrambled eggs with sturgeon.
You won’t find more perfect Pho anywhere else in this hood. The broth is delicately scented with sweet spices and so good, you might end up forgetting about the actual noodles.
Pickles are the bedrock of this fun-loving café that looks like an old-fashioned Jewish deli. They’re servin’ up Southern fare with a Jewish flare! Don’t miss the XL biscuit sandwich and fried Oreos.
Since the 1960's Moishe's has been master of hamentaschen and other pastries native to Eastern European Jews, but make sure to try some of their savory breads too like the poppy-seed bagels.
One of the first East Village eateries open after midnight, Stromboli still has its classic slightly sweet sauce and perfect crust helping it remain a bastion of great neighborhood pizza.
This place has been dishing out Sicilian pastries for almost 120 years and serving espresso before it was all the rage. All the pastries are mouth watering, but save room for the mini tarts!
Founded in 1983, it was the only Japanese restaurant in the neighborhood. It still does the best job of slinging bargain teriyakis, tempura, katsudon and sushi. Magnificent cheap eats.
This Ukranian butcher is one of the few Eastern European butchers left, but with classics like rice-filled blood sausage, mayonnaise-y salads, and kielbasa; it can't be beat.
This Jewish dairy restaurant remains a paragon of the meatless half of Kosher Jewish cuisine. Sit at the long lunch counter and enjoy cheese-squirting blintzes, egg sandwiches and savory soups.
Yes this place is crazy expensive, but the quality of the sushi ranks in the top 5 in the city. The weekday lunch special allows even the most common of us to sample their fare (in small quantities..)
Yes, it's actually a restaurant, and surprise, their specialty is authentic Brazilian! Get the shrimp baiano, a shrimp stew from Bahia, that comes with kale, fried plantains and plenty of white rice.
Prepare yourself for the ultimate gutbomb: the Peruvian burger is a messy, bizarre culinary wonder. It features a runny fried egg, fried plantains and several sauces. Roll up your sleeves and dig in!
Though this joint is famous for its noodles, we say go for the grilled pork chops. They're sliced razor thin, flame grilled and coated with a thin sweet sauce and presented with all the trimmings.
The chicken milanesa here is like none other. The chicken cutlet so delicately crumbed and perfectly fried, with a salad on top and salty notes from pecorino, it can't be beat.
