Burger Joint · Midtown East · 126 tips and reviews
Yana Mccormick: Delicious burger and custard.
Bin Yang: Holy lines. Alas, it's 2015 so go grab yourself the latest and the greatest - shackmeister burger. It's the best burger on the menu with almost no veges, just crispy marinated shallots!
Christina ♏️: Pay by card instead of cash and skip the line!
Le Relais de Venise L'Entrecôte: Don't miss French Crème Brûlée with bittersweet crunchy caramel top and velvet custard perfumed with pure vanilla bean.
J L: Steak frites with special sauce and a very affordable wine list. It's great to satisfy one's steak frites cravings.
wai-ling q.: Go for small salad, steak with THE sauce, and fries. That is the menu for this restaurant. So no vegetarians. Bottle a wine for $21. For dessert, profiteroles. Just like the L'Entrecote in Paris!

Danielle Snow: I had lunch there today. I got the 3 roll lunch special. it was delicious and my sushi was super fresh
Dens: Omakase from the downstairs sushi bar is amazing. Don't leave without trying the hand rolls (go spicy tuna!). I was also digging the salmon-meets-blowtorch sushi. Ask for fresh wasabi too.
New York Habitat: If you are a sushi lover, this is the right place! Make sure to try their spicy tuna rolls, and Sushi & Sashimi Combination. And the prices are good for what you get!

Andrea Barrezueta: 10-top of foodies and everyone loved it, especially the scallops with cauliflower, the steak tartare, brussel sprouts and last but not least the crispy chicken. Job well done The Modern!
Eater: The tarte flambee is one of the best bar snacks in NYC. [Eater 38 Member]
HOBNOB Magazine: I just adore this place, decor-wise and food-wise. Prefer the bar room over the dining room. The mushroom soup is healthy and delicious.

Italian Restaurant · Midtown East · 33 tips and reviews
cece porras: Small and cozy, perfect for an amazing italian meal. Love their homemade pastas specially the lasagna. Their complimentary arancini is spectacular.
G I: Place is overrated. Staff is nice, but food is ok. Everything has so much salt in it! Would not be returning for sure.
Nicolò Trentini: A Perfect italian restaurant in NY. Good service and good food. The place isn't very big though.

Olessya K: Try their house specialty - papardelle with stewed boar meat sauce. Similar to bolognese but more tender melting in your mouth. Simply divine!
Michael Schiano: It's a sleeper
Kevin O'wings: Man so this is tougher than I want it to be. Pros and cons. 1 pros great food, spinach pasta with meet sauce. Great the porkchop great. Waiter absolutely horrible. We got there at 7:50pm. They gave

Greek Restaurant · Rockefeller Center · 19 tips and reviews
Angela: The whole fish selection is awesome. We settled for the Royal Dorado sashimi-style and it was absolutely delicious. The bottarga was heavenly, plus the octopus and phyllo/spinach were winners too.
Eater: Long Island Greek fish restaurant Limani recently opened its second location. The name means seaport in Greek and appropriately offers a fish focused menu including whole fish baked in salt. Read more.
John E: Food is fantastic, particularly the chicken kebab, which keeps me coming back. Outdoor dining pop-up area during the summer is a rare find in this area. But service is consistently disappointing.

Lebanese Restaurant · Turtle Bay · 63 tips and reviews
Shannon *: Naya roll with falafal, Hummos, pickled veggies and hot sauce with tahini is awesome. Wheat wrap is light and tasty.
vanessa marie: The garlic whip is SO good, but be prepared for major garlic breath.
Rewan Parti: Avoid the rush for lunch by getting in before 12pm. Also have their chicken bowl or Kafta bowl. Their orange and green sauce are a must drizzle on your bowl or sandwich. Fresh, tasty and reasonable...
