Come hungry!!! This place is amazing. The food is simply delicious and prepared with love and care and the drinks were made with a more than fair pour:)
After a two-year hiatus, this much-loved southern-inspired Williamsburg restaurant has returned in a new, bigger location to serve arguably the city’s best fried chicken.
A pizza worth the hour-long subway ride, and the wait at the coor – the margherita is simply amazing. The crust is flavorful and crispy.
The atmosphere alone here is great, but the pizza is killer, too. My favorite is the Cortes, but just go with whatever calls to you. And the nonpizza food options are insanely delicious. Mehr erfahren.

The "midnight gravy" in the hot roast beef with mutz and gravy sandwich - one of our 101 Best Sandwiches in NY – is the stuff of legend. Mehr erfahren.
You come here for the awesome sandwiches, not the atmosphere. Mouthwatering Pastrami and Brisket Beef. If you have room…have a dessert.
The best burger in the city, and the best brunch in the neighborhood. There really isn't a menu, so just sit down and let them tell you what's in store that day.
The original Patsy Grimaldi is back running his old haunt, 20 years after selling his old pizzeria! If they stick to his exacting standards, this will be the best NY pizza you can get.
"Going early on a weekend will ensure a cheesy, buttery round of khachapuri ($6) straight from the oven. There are few purer pleasures to be found in the city, or in life." Mehr erfahren.
The fried chicken + bacon and cheddar waffles, with their 3 choices of butter, are incredible. Pies N Thighs, you're still my main squeeze. But this place is my chicken on the side.
Black Betty's been reborn into this kitschy, nautical spot with four-star bar food. Per the Underground Gourmet, try the fried chicken - "among the best in town" - and the "adult cheese" sandwich. Mehr erfahren.
Try the chorizo taco at this Bushwick tortilla factory. It's one of NYC's 26 best tacos! Mehr erfahren.
Great old-school place to cater an event – the food is really spectacular, especially the home-made lasagne, manicotti or ravioli. Be sure to dress to the nines.
Get the vegetarian combo, try all 8 veg dishes, and rotate halfway through. h/t DJ
The double cheeseburger packs a beefy punch: Smashed on the flattop to achieve a deeply browned crust with locked-in juices, it’s then tucked into a soft Martin’s potato bun with toppings and sauce. Mehr erfahren.
Stob by here for grab-and-go breakfast tacos and the neat-to-eat koloache pastries. We like them with fillings both savory (eggs, sausage and cheese) and sweet (cherry preserves): Mehr erfahren.
Solid wood-fired-oven pizza from an alumnus of Paulie Gee's. Clam pie is very good. Get it. And is this weird, but the Bibb salad is nice, too. Mehr erfahren.
Come here for delicious and super cheap Mexican fare. Get chicken, steak or pork tacos for <$2.50 each. All burritos $8. Cash only, BYOB. Mehr erfahren.
Order the Saint Louie pizza. It has "real" provel cheese (the exact same as Imo's in STL). The pizza isn't the same, but the cheese is. Trust me, NYC, you've never had cheese like this on a pizza.
Our food critic Robert Sietsema says the Haneez is so tender and flavorful that “a toothless guy could enjoy it.” It’s ranked number 2 on his top lamb dishes in NYC.
Far and away the best hummus in NYC; try it with ground beef on top (trust us). And don't miss their excellent vegetable side dishes, either.
Make reservations or go early. This is Middle Eastern food mecca. Definitely start with the hummus and tabbouleh followed by a delicious half chicken. Order lots of appetizers.
people like the burger. i love the fresh ricotta. good brunch. kind of a scene. long wait. cute coffee shop vibe (w/a takeout window) during the day.
The Queso Fundido (melted chihuahua cheese with chorizo, served with corn tortillas) is regoddamndiculous
This is literally the only authentic Tajik restaurant in the entire Western Hemisphere, and the food is better than even my host mother could cook! Definitely try the plov, shashlik, and kurutob!
At the risk of blowing up someone's backyard burrito spot, this is one of the best-kept secrets in the city.

Not your run-of-the-mill Thai food. the Pad Thai is no carb, but that doesn't make it any less delicious or filling! Pair it with the sweet coconut sticky rice and enjoy.
Chow down on lobster rolls, mussels, and steamers mere blocks from the water. Mehr erfahren.
