The Pressed Vegetable Panini is amazing. Wine prices here are super cheap. The gnocchi is really good as well. Everything here is basically delicious. If going in for brunch or breakfast their fresh squeezed orange juice is perfection. Great prices but cash only.

It is a hike but it is worth it. Really popular and busy on weekend nights. The deviled eggs are my favorite. The Harlem Chowder (for two) is worth the $76.

Right around the corner from my apartment, they have really good food and it is inexpensive. I usually order the Thai Chicken Platter (it's a salad with pepper jack cheese, brown rice and thai chicken topped with spicy thai sauce) for $8 it is a good portion and really delicious. They also have great smoothies and fresh juices made to order.

A must for at least one cocktail (they're pricey hence why I say one) and to see the view. It is on the roof of the James New York hotel and the sunset is always great but the views in general are pretty epic.

They have live music and then later in the night it is a DJ. If you're looking for a party scene this is the area/street/place to be.

The 24 hour bodega - they have almost everything you could imagine. I go here at least 10 times a week. Their fresh cut fruit selection is really good and has great prices. Also, if you are a smoker you can buy cigarettes here. They sell beer here.
