Midtown's 21 best restaurants
For years, whenever someone’s asked for a restaurant recommendation in midtown, we’ve backed into the conversation with a list of caveats and requests that they don’t get their hopes too high. Midtown was for office lunch—assuming you even had the time for it—or maybe for a decent after-work happy hour. More recently, however, we’ve found countless good reasons to go out to eat and drink in midtown on purpose. These new sushi spots, old favorite steakhouses and hidden-in-plain-sight dining destinations have us happily heading into the bustling neighborhood in the heart of Manhattan.
