DON'T MISS THESE PLACES TO EAT WHEN IN NYC

It’s impossible to eat at every restaurant in New York, and it’s a constantly changing task to confidently say what the “best” restaurants are. 

This is simply a list of my favorite places to eat the quintessential New York City classics. These are the places I always bring out-of-towners because I love them, and I hope you do too. 

Spicy chicken sandwiches at The Commodore

This windowless dive bar in Brooklyn is dark and crowded and loud, and the back courtyard is filled with cigarette smoke and cheap patio furniture. 

The home of “I’ll have what she’s having,” Katz’s is definitely a touristy spot but for good reason. The hand-carved hot pastrami sandwich is as good as it gets. 

Ruebens at Katz’s Deli

High Tea at Bergdorf Goodman

I especially love high tea on Sunday afternoons, complete with a glass of Veuve Cliquot! 

Pizza at Artichoke Basille’s

Artichoke Basille’s is one of my favorite street joints: it’s open late, and there’s nowhere to sit, but the slices are huge and homemade and tasty. 

Cheeseburgers (and beer) at Burger Joint

Located down a dark unmarked hallway off the luxurious Le Parker-Meridien lobby, the unassuming dive bar vibe of Burger Joint feels ages away from the skyscrapers outside.
