BBQ's on 73rd and Third. There is also another near Time Square. You can google search them. Great ribs!

Steak and/or Lobster my fav is the Old Homestead (56 9th Ave - 212.242.9040). A bit pricey but well worth it

Indian - Mumtaz ( 84th & 85th, 1493 3rd Avenue 212.879.4797)

Pizza - almost any where is much much better than this side of the pond (IMHO)

Hmmm... get very hungry... missing my old haunts :-(

If you're with a crowd, try Carmine's at Broadway and West 90th.. great food in a boisterous environment. As for must see, everything in Manhattan is a must see. Start with Times Square.

Sweet! 😀

For great food and a fantastic view of the city, check out The River Cafe in Brooklyn (pricey though). If you're in (or near) Times Square, there's a restaurant at the top of the Marriott Marquee that rotates. Also very cool. Not a great restaurant, but good for drinks and the view. Greenwich Village and Little Italy are also nice spots. Skating in Rockefeller Center, the MET, the MOMA...live music.

Good stuff. Enjoy!

Odd but hip, and probably overpriced. And it won't seem so odd when you see what's around it. Since you're so close, don't miss the Broadway shows. Chorus Line is back. Bring money. 😉
