Breakfast sandwhiches, fancy variety.

Delicious Ramen, but they don't take reservations and line can get long. Best to put your name on the waiting list an hour before you want to eat, then get drinks somewhere nearby while you wait.

The Smith has several locations and all are solid, but this one is especially useful if you're in this area visiting a museum or Broadway show.
This is a tough neighborhood for decent food because most places are either Super expensive Michelin star or very low end places that are deserted after people get out of work.
