Coffee lovers go nuts for this spot; they have a special drink called the "deconstructed latte" which is a very unique espresso tasting experience. If you love coffee, it's definitely worth the high price tag ($10)

2-star Michelin Restaurant and widely considered one of the best restaurants in NYC. You need to call as far in advance as is possible to get a reservation and the place is not cheap ($160 tasting menu). For a cheaper alternative (or if you're not able to get a reservation), they do walk-ins to eat at the bar, which has an abbreviated tasting menu that is much less expensive.

My favorite local restaurant! It's a super quaint French restaurant with a small but wonderful menu and really great wine. The place is super small and doesn't take reservations, but it's forutnately a hidden-gem so wait times are always reasonable. A truly fantastic date spot-- you'll feel like you're in Paris

ICONIC NYC spot for Jewish food. Katz is one of NYC's oldest, most famous places. Try the pastrami or corn beef sandwich (corn beef is my favorite since it's a bit more lean). NOTE: the sandwiches are massive and expensive (~20$) so would recommend splitting one before two people
