SeeEntertainment District
๐Times Square
4.6While this is one of the most known tourist locations of Manhattan, it is still worth a visit. The view is breathaking. Just watch out for locals who will elbow you out of the way, and scammers.
EatIce cream shop
๐ฆMorgensternโs Ice Cream
4.9I just discovered this Lower East Side gem a few days ago. Think old fashioned ice cream parlorโฆ but new. Reinvented. The flavors are crazy unique (When we went we tried and loved the Salted Caramel Pretzel, Raw Milk, Salt and Pepper Pinenut, and Angel Food Vanilla). The toppings, stored in glass apothecary jars (way cool), are equally amazing. The caramel was some of the best Iโve tasted.
EatJapanese
๐Ippudo Ramen
4.8a more classic, traditional approach to ramen, Ippudo serves up perfect bowls of the stuff every time. I love the spicy one. There are two locations, one in the East Village and right in the Times Square area.
EatDeli
๐ฅชRuss and Daughter
4.8the bagels are actually just okay, but you are here for their lox sandwiches (with scallion cream cheese)โฆ and they are legendary. Russ & Daughters is a super famous Lower East Side establishment thatโs been in business for 100 years. Thatโs a long time to be on the top in NYC. And expect a lineโฆ there is always a well-deserved wait for these sandwiches.

EatAsian Fusion Restaurant
๐ฅMomofuku
4.7These days, the city is littered with a wealth of pork buns -- but the often imitated, never duplicated OG bun is surprisingly simple: steamed bao, roasted pork belly, cucumbers, and scallions. The proportions are perfect; itโs savory and sweet; and it puts food market copycats to shame.
EatRamen restaurant
๐ฅIvan Ramen
4.7you wouldnโt think a Jew from Long Island would end up becoming one of the worldโs leading experts on ramen. After his creative and unique ramen blew up big time in Tokyo, Ivan Orkin brought his ramen to NYC in two locations. Itโs darn good. And looking for something different? Try one of his mazemens, which is less brothy than the traditional ramen.
EatMediterranean

Itโs the sort of place that inspires devotion: Every bartender here has the Employees Only logo tattooed on them, and even barbacking is a coveted position.
