From BBQ, to Thai, to French, to American classics you can’t go wrong. Room Service is some of the best Thai in the city, and if you want some good old fashioned BBQ try out Daisy Mae’s or Southern Hospitality. One of our favorite Mexican food spots is El Original because they are one of the few spots in the city that serve queso! Another all time favorite spot, Meatball Shop, has a location in Hell’s Kitchen. Don’t forget about Gotham West Market if you want a full sampling of foods!

Ash and I have stayed at the Hudson and had an incredible experience. It’s a bit hidden, so make sure you look for the iconic trees that sit outside the entrance.
