Mexican Restaurant · Murray Hill · 95 tips and reviews
Jeffrey Zeldman: Gourmet old-school Mexican cuisine, since 1959. Offbeat location between 1st Ave & Tunnel Entrance Street makes it a neighborhood secret, and the locals like it that way. Superb.

Attraction · 106 tips and reviews
Jeffrey Zeldman: There does not seem to be a central exhibit or ride here; just shops and a bar and street performers. Was hoping for something informational a la next-door "O Canada" for my 8-year-old's sake.

American Restaurant · Downtown Austin · 375 tips and reviews
Jeffrey Zeldman: Comfort food and cocktails on a big back porch; a calm sanctum around the corner from the chaos of Austin Convention Center. Gets very crowded, so make reservations and avoid peak hours.
Jeffrey Zeldman: One of the last remaining real diners in NYC and very good of its kind. Best fries in town (if you order them well done). Try the Eggs Florentine at weekend brunch.
