18 places to have a good meal when visiting New York City
New York City is home to so many amazing, delicious, and exciting places to eat — restaurants, food trucks, food halls, markets, holes-in-the-wall, street carts, and much more.
I generally recommend you try as many local/independent eateries as possible but the truth is some chain locations are awesome and worth checking out, too.
Here are some ideas of where to eat in several neighborhoods of “Downtown Manhattan” (a.k.a. south of 59th Street). This is not meant to be a “best list” — these are just some suggestions. Enjoy!
