OK, so it's not on 2nd Avenue anymore, but there's no denying that 2nd Avenue Deli's new location has not changed the quality of their old-fashioned deli comfort food. Enjoy freshly made chopped liver while you wait for a table and nibble on crispy gribenes while you await a massive pastrami sandwich. It's the quintessential New York deli experience.

Mike's Bistro combines traditional bistro fare with Asian and American influences, resulting in some supremely tasty dishes. From a chicken and duck cassoulet to Asian-style Big Eye Tuna, there's a dish for every palate at Mike's.
The Prime Grill

The Prime Grill is NY's premier Kosher steakhouse, that's good enough to compete with some of the top steakhouses in town. Like so many others, Prime Grill has its own dry aging room where steaks are aged in-house for maximum flavor. But unlike other steakhouses, this one's got a full sushi bar to boot.
Solo
550 Madison Avenue
New York, NY 10022-3211
(212) 833-7800

Head chef Hung Huynh (a former Top Chef winner) has created a completely glatt Kosher menu that combines Mediterranean, Asian, and American cuisines at Solo. From duck spring rolls to Steak Frites with Chimichurri, there's something for every mood and palate at this sleek Midtown eatery.
