Bar · West Village · 111 tips and reviews
Real Cheap Eats: The cheesesteaks are popular, but try Adrian’s Atomic Avalanche ($9.75) instead. It begins as a typical cheesesteak, but is topped with pepperoni, hot peppers, fried mozzarella balls & marinara sauce. Read more.
AmateurConcierge: Wing sauce is interesting and good but the wings are quite small. Go with that monster cheesesteak with the fried mozzarella
Christian Azer: One of the best cheesesteaks I've had in NYC. This is coming from someone who lived in Philly for many years.

Italian Restaurant · Theater District · 292 tips and reviews
Saeed: Amazing restaurant. My recommendation: fried mozzarella , Calabrian wings, Lasagna Fritta, chicken Caesar salad, crab topped chicken and end it with wild berry cheesecake (sufficient for 4 adults)
Gizem Asker: Friendly staff, slow service, delicious breadstick! You should try calamari, fried mozzarella and baked tilapia with shrimp.
Jonathan Z: Lived in NYC for 11 years. Best eating city in the world. But I'll be damned if I don't need a little OLIVE GARDEN TIMES SQUARE in my life every now and again.

David Greenberger: The place lives up to its name. 1 of the top 3 slices I've had in NYC. No need to get fancy, the plain and mini pepperoni slices are out of this world.
Rodrigo Salazar: MUCH better than Ultimate Pizza, everyone knows that
Bibi Miller: Slices are awesome & eclectic. They do cracker thin crust, and it's Amazing.

David Elizandro: Great bar to grab a drink and watch a game after work. The fried mozzarella balls are great!

Zack Sheppard: The honey mustard wings are delicious. Actual honey. Actual mustard.
Lauren: Best diner on the UES. Solid staples: eggs, home fries, wraps, etc. Great service & staff, too.
Ruben Brosbe: The York Ave is without a doubt the best item on a very solid menu
Anna Osgoodby: One of my favorite diners around the UES. The staff is great, the menu selection can't be beat and the food is delicious!

Pub · Gramercy Park · 141 tips and reviews
Daniel Benkwitt: A New York classic and all around great neighborhood spot. The Gramercy burger is particularly good (and all burgers are cooked to perfection).
Scott Ex: Pete's hasn't closed since 1851. It was even open during prohibition, disguised as a 'flower' shop speakeasy.
HBO: Sex and the city happened here. This is where Miranda took the reins and proposed to Steve "over three-dollar beers."
Luca DL: Waffle w berries and maple syrup, that's all you need for brunch!
Pawan Thakkar: Can't get enough of this place. French toast or waffles are a must
Harry: Perfectly poached eggs and fluffy pancakes, the perfect breakfast! Try the eggs a la Madison and the eggs florentine, as well as the berry pancakes, you won't regret it!
