Food Scene

I eat here all the time. They are moderately priced. They have great salads, gyro, kabobs, and my favorite dishes are the salmon salad and the meatballs as an appetizer.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is a place most tourists don't know about...they have a rooftop bar looking onto the Empire State Building. It's fun to have a drink and bring up a pizza or order one while you are there.
